“You know the Great General of the North is coming here, right?” Lacey asked.

“Coming here? I think you're misinformed. He's already here! He's working at our construction site.” Zeke smiled.

Lacey instantly laughed at Zeke's remark. “The general? Working for us? Heck, then, wouldn't the marshal be the site manager?”

“How can the Great Marshal work as a construction site manager? He's working as our salesperson!”

Lacey laughed even louder, all her pent-up frustration disappearing in a flash. “Seriously! You should try stand-up comedy!”

“You're funnier than I thought you would be,” Hannah also laughed. “Who knew you would be so good at calming a girl down. Look at Lacey's father. He's just a muscle head. No matter how angry I get, he can never sweet talk his way through it.”

“What does this have to do with me? Isn't your temper the main problem here? Whenever I try to calm you down, you'll roar back at me. Who the heck in this world can calm that temper of yours?”

“You know the Greot Generol of the North is coming here, right?” Locey osked.

“Coming here? I think you're misinformed. He's olreody here! He's working ot our construction site.” Zeke smiled.

A lot of rich and powerful men are laying their eyes on the project now. They can probably take it away from us without batting an eyelid.”

“What? Whoever gets to construct the building gets to welcome the general? Wouldn't that be us?” Daniel grew excited at the news.

“For now, yes,” Lacey sighed. “But you never know what will happen later. There's no way we can fend off all the hungry wolves.”

“You have to protect the contract at all costs then!” Hannah quickly suggested. “They can't do anything as long as we have it, right?'
