Harry threw a look of contempt at Levi. “Levi, if you act recklessly, you’ll only put yourself and Zoey in danger! What can dignity do for you when you’re dead and six feet underground?”
“Exactly! Before an opportunity like this, dignity is nothing!”
“Levi, you’re a smart man. Why can’t you see what’s the best option for you?”
“As the saying goes, no matter how vicious a tiger is, it will not eat its own child. Until now, the Garrison family has refused to accept you as one of them because of your lowly status. In addition, no matter how many waves you make in your career, it’s nothing to them!”
“The Garrison family is way up there in prestige and power. They value their honor very much and will never stoop to offer you a spot among them. As long as you accept defeat and say something pleasing to your father, you’ll find your place among them again. Is kneeling really so demeaning when it comes to your own family? You shouldn’t feel any shame at all!”
Everyone was pointing fingers at Levi.
To them, kneeling before the Garrison family seemed a low price to pay for the riches and glory that would come after.
After all, was dignity still worth anything in this era?
Under these circumstances, practically nobody would still hold on tightly to their dignity.
So why was Levi Garrison so determined to make things difficult for himself?
How important was something like dignity, something as insubstantial as a wisp of smoke in the air?
Levi shot everyone a look. “Firstly, the Garrison family has never treated me as a member and I’ve never thought of myself as one of them, either. Secondly, I value dignity very much. It’s something that I will never throw away for all the riches in the world!”
“You...you must be thick-skulled!”
Harry and the others were so furious that they almost exploded at him instantly.
“This is the most you’re ever going to achieve in your life! You won’t be able to take another step forward,” Meredith hollered.
Robert banged viciously on the table and roared, “Are you still concerned about your dignity at
this moment? What good can dignity do for your"
However, Zoey stood resolutely by her husband and argued, “I think Levi is right; that little dignity is more important!”
“Why do we have to give up our dignity and beg others for our lives? They’re just going to treat us like a bunch of dogs!”
