Chapter 774 Zoey Is a Wealthy Woman
Austin was deeply loyal to Darren. Although he was somewhat puzzled as to why
Darren suddenly appointed Theo as the vice-head, he dared not to ask further
and could only comply.
“Please rest assured, Mr. Everett. I will definitely assist Mr. Russell,” Austin said
respectfully.
“For the next ten days or so, I will be meditating in seclusion. You and Theo will
manage the affairs of Raging Blade. If there are any major issues, we'll discuss
them after I come out of seclusion.”
The bombing in Southlake City previously had caused heavy losses to many
industries. Many foreign companies also withdrew their factories there.
Now, Southlake City was no longer as prosperous as before.
Jerry was very worried that a military coup might happen in Southlake City. Who
knew what terrible things might occur if Caspian took advantage of the situation
and incited the masses?
To minimize the risk, Jerry had to order the allocation of some public funds to
rebuild Southlake City.
Moreover, these reconstruction projects had to have no relation to Caspian at all.
Miranda had been rendering bids in the name of Southlake Corporation.
However, the supervisors of those projects didn't take her seriously at all. They
even insulted her by saying, “Isn't the CEO of Southlake Corporation Caspian’s
wife? A scum like him must have a scum wife, too!”
Miranda wanted to argue, but before she could speak, she was kicked out. Such
incidents also happened to other Southlake Corporation employees.
They were temporarily out of work and planned to go elsewhere to make a living.
But when others learned they had worked for Southlake Corporation, their
applications were ignored.
Upon learning of such incidents, Willow felt very guilty.
When Southlake Corporation was still around, these employees took pride in
working for the company.

But now, after the destruction of the company and Caspian’s framing, Southlake
Corporation had become a bad name.
When Zoey heard Willow's words, she said confidently, “Willow, don’t worry. I can
guarantee your family won't have to worry about food and clothing!”
Hearing this, Willow was stunned for a moment and asked, “As a novelist, how
much money can you make?"
“What do you mean? Are you looking down on me? I've saved quite a bit over the
years!" Zoey said proudly.
“Are you joking? Or do you have a sugar daddy? So, you have a lot of spare
money?” Willow asked somewhat doubtfully.
“I earn this much in a month now.” Zoey held up a finger.
“Ten thousand dollars? You'd better keep it for yourself.” Willow smiled.
“Who are you looking down at? Add two more zeros to it!" Zoey said arrogantly.
Upon hearing this, Willow was extremely surprised that Zoey was earning
millions of dollars in a month.
It was really unbelievable that she could earn so much by just typing in front of a
computer.
“Willow, I only need a bit for my living expenses. You can take the rest for
emergency relief!
“Your employees also need to be taken care of. Besides, I've been staying at
your house this entire time. I feel bad if I don’t help you,” Zoey said.
“Zoey, you're so kind! You're such a great friend. I love you so much!” Willow said
and leaned toward Zoey.
“Ugh! Go away!”
With Zoey’s support and coupled with the money Willow had saved, she
immediately called Miranda.
Miranda had been running around these days and hadn't been at the villa.
“Willow, what's the matter?” Miranda asked as she answered the phone.
She had come out to do business for Southlake Corporation. But after losing her
job, she felt that her life had become dull.

“Go and check the situation of our employees. For those in particularly difficult
situations, I'm going to provide some funds for them to maintain their daily lives,
“Willow said.
“Willow, is this really okay? There are thousands of people in two of our
companies, and there isn't much money in our accounts,” Miranda said,
somewhat surprised.
At first, she thought Willow was calling her back to the villa. She hadn't expected
it would be for this matter.
Willow also knew that there were many employees in the company, but they had
been with Southlake Corporation all along. She naturally wanted to provide them
with some security.
“It's okay. Just do as I say. Oh, and remember to come back for dinner after
you're done,” Willow said before hanging up the phone.
After that, she turned to Zoey and said, “Zoey, from now on, we'll have to eat less
and save money.”
“What's wrong? We're not broke. I'm just starting to feel like a rich woman, you
want me to eat less?” Zoey was somewhat displeased.
“You said you'd give me your money, right?” Willow said.
and
“I did! But you can’t starve me, can you? I have a sweet tooth, and I love snacks
the most,” Zoey said somewhat helplessly.
“I don’t think you should be eating snacks since you're single now and might
grow fat. I think you should just give me the remaining 20 thousand dollars,”
Willow said.
“I refuse!” Zoey refused outright.

But before Sherry could answer, Zoey spoke up, “Your wife is being a saint!”

“Why don't you just eat quietly and stop talking nonsense,” Willow said as she
glanced at Zoey.
Seeing Sherry’s gloomy expression, Caspian felt that something was amiss.
He had been studying the Eldorian Scroll fragment these days and had not asked
about the situation at home.
This table of vegetarian dishes was a bit too shabby.
“What's going on?” Caspian asked, looking at Willow.

So, she could only tell him about it.
After listening to her decision, Caspian felt very relieved. His wife was truly kind-
hearted.
Although he was no longer the Diatoranian God of War, he still had his Golden
Dragon card.
Since the card was given to him by Balthazar privately, Jerry didn’t know about it.
Otherwise, that old thief would definitely take away the card.
The card was uniquely made for Caspian, and the other four champions didn’t
have this privilege.
Suddenly, he missed his previous life, but he wasn’t in a hurry to relive it.
