Chapter 97
When Zoe finished speaking, everyone in the room shuddered, shocked by her words.
“What do you mean by it’s just one spot at the Eminence Nexus? Do you think our family owns it? You think you can take as many spots as you want?” Clara asked, trembling with anger.
“You’ve said stuff like this before, Herbert said, his tone cold
“How come I have a sister like you? Compared to Eunice, you’re way worse. You might have some talent, but you gave your spot to someone else and then brag about it? I don’t want a sister like you at all!” Jacob roared:
Even Sean’s gaze turned cold, and what was revealed in his eyes was a deep disappointment.
Seeing their reactions, Zoe felt a chill in her heart. Her voice turned just as cold. “I gave the spot away, so what? It’s mine, and I don’t need you to Judge me
With that, she turned around and went upstairs arrogantly. From downstairs, she could faintly hear Clara’s angry shout, along with Herbert and Jacobs trying to calm her down
“Stop right there! You ungrateful brat 1–If you don’t get the spot buck, don’t even think about coming back!” Clara yelled.
“Mom, calm down. It’s not worth it to get worked up over someone like her, Sean said.
Sean watched Zor walk upstairs, his expression darkening. It looked like he had expected too much from this sister who had only just come home.
The next morning, as soon as the sun rose. Zoe received text messages from Medusa on her phone, informing her of Shawn’s latest move.
Medusa: [Shawn’s barracks are recruiting! No age or gender restrictions, as long as you’re strong enough. Boss, why not give it a shot]
Medusa: [If you get selected and make it into the barracks, you’ll have more chances to be around Shawn. At that point, your dream of spending a night with him might not be just a dream anymore.]
inner. What
a perfect opportunity for an assassination!|
Medusa [Well, no. You and Shawn will fight from dawn till dusk with no clear winner.
Zoe wasn’t interested in the first part of the message. But when Medusa mentioned the “perfect opportunity for an assassination. her curiosity was piqued. It was true–her previous attempts, both sneaky and direct, had failed because Shawn’s guard was always up.

However, if she joined the barracks and became one of his own, her chances of succeeding in the assassination would be much higher.
Zoe decided to act immediately. After packing her belongings, she quickly arrived at the camp of Shawn’s war zone. She tore off one of the recruitment notices and went to the registration place.
The registration booth was set up at the entrance of Shawn’s war zone camp. People were constantly coming and going–men and women, young and old. It was clear that Shawn’s recruitment had sparked a huge response.
Everyone wanted to join him and make a name for themselves. What Zoe didn’t expect was how bustling Shawn’s recruitment would be.
After all, in some other countries, unless the government enforced repressive measures or offered substantial incentives, it would be nearly impossible to recruit such a large number of people.
Not to mention, Shawn’s recruitment this time required applicants to undergo a selection process before they could officially enlist.
“Zoe, it’s you.” Just then, a slightly surprised male voice suddenly sounded from beside Zoc
Zoe glanced to the side and spotted a tall, striking young man standing at 61“, He wore a black baseball cap, and his handsome features were hard to miss. It was none other than her deskmate, the school’s heartthrob, Philip Chapanan.
Zoe raised an eyebrow. “Oh, it’s you”
Her tone was flat as if she had only just recognized him. After all, in Zoe’s first impression, her deskmate Philip had messy short hair and always made casual appearances. They did not interact much.
mystery
pery about him. He didn’t mind Zoe’s reaction at all.
Philip rarely even came to school and had an air
an air of m
After all, he still remembered clearly how Zoe defeated Zack and humiliated Eunice in public at the school gymnasium last time. He could guarantee that he had never met such a strange girl in his life.
“What are you doing here? Are you also here to sign up for the military camp Philip asked in astonishment.

“Yes. This time, Zor’s answer was very straightforward,
Philip was completely dumbfounded. After all, a military camp was not an amusement park, especially since this one was a war zone under the Jurisdiction of Shawn. It could be called the number one purgatory in Clusia
Even if Zoe managed to join the army, she’d still have to face elite soldiers who had passed through multiple rounds of tough selection.
She was just a delicate girl, with slender arms and legs. If she had really joined the army, Philip was afraid she wouldn’t have been able to withstand brutal training. Even if she hadn’t died, she would have been left scarred from all the hardships.
This made Philip even more interested, and he asked, “As a girl, you are actually interested in joining the army?”
ill Shawn
Zor replied coldly and faintly, “Well, I’m not interested in joining the army. I’m here for Shawn. She was here to kill
But to Philip, her words meant that her admiration for Shawn was so deep that she wanted to join the army in hopes of getting closer to him.
This left Philip feeling a bit disappointed and disheartened. It turns out that, like all the other girls, she admires Sluwen and even wants to join the anny because of him; he thought.
