Chapter 491

Ten Acclaimed Socialites?

Zeke frowned and commented in a low voice, “That's nothing but a name. Why are you being so persistent?”

Zoey's eyes reddened as she heard that.

Why am I so persistent? Because I'm not the Shurmer family's daughter. If my identity is revealed, I'll no longer be able to stay at the Shurmer residence. While I'm still useful in the eyes of everyone in the Shurmer family, I must make every effort to reach the top. Only if I did this would I have something to fall back on if I was chased out of the house.

“Zeke, this shouldn't be a problem for you, right? Several pharmaceutical factories under the Shurmer family have produced anti-cancer drugs and made great contributions to humankind. If you speak up, I'm sure the International Socialite Club will show you some respect and re-enter me into Ten Acclaimed Socialites.”

Zeke locked his gaze on Zoey for a moment before slowly rising from his swivel chair and walking around the curved desk to approach her.

“Zoey, is the status of the Shurmer family's daughter not enough? Do you really have to fight for those useless things? In your eyes, the status of the Shurmer family's daughter is inferior to that of Ten Acclaimed Socialites?” he questioned.

“No, no, no.” Zoey hurriedly shook her head. “In my eyes, the Shurmer family is the most important. I've always been proud to be a member of the Shurmer family. It's just that I was originally one of the Ten Acclaimed Socialites. If Bailey hadn't sent me to jail, I—”
