Her words made everyone present stop in their tracks.

“You…”

Meredith jumped to her feet, furious. At that moment, she was tempted to slap Zoey.

“You don’t have a choice. You must marry Landyn, and you must attend the engagement ceremony tomorrow,” Meredith hissed.

“Sylas, keep an eye on her,” Robert ordered.

It’s rumored that the Gates family agreed to Landyn’s marriage with Ms. Lopez because they need her to change Kurt’s fate. If she marries into the Gates family, she won’t be happy. She’s nothing but a tool for them!”

“Nonsense!”
