Her words made everyone present stop in their tracks.

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

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!”
