After Betrayal: Lightning Marriage to Mr. Enigmatic-Chapter 833: The Gentle Side of a Cold-Hearted Man
This wasn’t the Harry Hunter that Zoe Lewis remembered.
The Harry Hunter she knew always prioritized business, always had others waiting for him. She recalled that when Cherry Lewis and Harry Hunter were together, they could never find Harry—calls were always answered by Connor. He was so cold that people didn’t dare to approach him, only able to admire from a distance.
Zoe Lewis admired Isabella Weaver to the point of complete reverence. She could actually win Harry Hunter’s heart and get him to shed his cold mask and tenderly comfort her.
Ah, what a beautiful love story!
She thought about it and unknowingly fell asleep on the grass.
These days had worn her out; working at the Hunter Family daily, cooking a big table of meals, and then going home only to be forced by Cherry Lewis to do the laundry without being allowed to sleep. Today, she felt too relaxed and accidentally fell asleep.
David and the others, being bodyguards, of course, wouldn’t sleep, taking turns patrolling and keeping watch.
Connor didn’t sleep either. Seeing Zoe Lewis sleeping deeply on the cold grass, he thought that although it was summer, sleeping like this would surely lead to a cold.
He casually covered Zoe Lewis with a blanket, then got up to clean up the picnic leftovers.
Half an hour later, Zoe Lewis woke up to find a blanket over her. She thought Grace Watt had covered her, so she hugged the blanket and went to thank Grace.
Grace shook her head and pointed to Connor: "He covered you."
Zoe Lewis was taken aback, then smiled.
Not bad, after eating a meal she cooked, he actually knew to cover her with a blanket!
She folded the blanket, put it in the car, and followed Connor closely: "Thank you, Connor."
"You’re welcome."
Connor remained indifferent, tidying up the pots and pans and taking them to the stream to wash.
Zoe Lewis immediately followed: "I’ll help you."
Isabella Weaver had also woken up, and Harry Hunter was wiping her face with a wet towel.
Seeing Zoe Lewis always trailing after Connor, he couldn’t help but ask Isabella Weaver, "Has she taken a fancy to Connor?"
"Has she? Um, maybe!"
Isabella Weaver answered vaguely because she wasn’t sure if Zoe Lewis wanted to connect with Connor for better information on Harry Hunter or if she was truly interested in him.
But previously, Zoe Lewis had proactively mentioned that Cherry Lewis held something over her.
And that leverage wasn’t something of her own, but about a man she had secretly loved for a long time.
This leverage could ruin that man’s life, so she stayed in the Lewis Family, following Cherry’s orders.
However, Isabella Weaver felt that Zoe Lewis staying by Cherry’s side wasn’t just for the man she secretly loved; she often enjoyed the feeling of being an undercover agent for Cherry.
Besides, she herself said that leaving the Lewis Family would mean losing access to first-hand secrets and real-time information about Cherry Lewis.
Harry Hunter was just casually asking, and it was mainly because Zoe Lewis was Evan Lewis’s daughter that he inquired. Who Cherry Lewis liked wasn’t essential, but if she liked someone on their side, that would be for the best.
Evan Lewis, as a person, was somewhat timid, cowardly, and lacked great wisdom. But he had one good trait: once he recognized Star Region Group, he wholeheartedly followed Harry Hunter. Although he couldn’t always understand Harry’s instructions, he would still comply.
In the future, with the Star Region Group and Lewis Clan Group combined, it would be an immensely formidable power.
This union was different from a marriage alliance; it essentially meant the Lewis Clan Group would become dependent on the Star Region Group, giving Harry Hunter full control.
Therefore, he not only had to control Evan Lewis but also had to have dominion over Zoe Lewis, because the Lewis Clan Group would be passed on to her.
As it seems now, there’s nothing to worry about. Zoe Lewis is much more interested in cooking and being an intelligence agent than in being the president of the Lewis Clan Group.
