Lacey bitterly smiled. “Summer, we have a professional relationship. Let’s not talk about private matters while we’re working. Don’t worry. I don’t blame you for this.”

What right do I have to blame Summer?

She’s Zeke’s high school friend. She knew him for a longer time than I, and their relationship is much stronger than ours.

If anything, I’m the third wheel.

Upon hearing Lacey’s words, Summer felt at ease. “You don’t blame me? It seems like Mr. Williams has told you what happened. That’s good. I was worried that you’d blame me for this. Ms. Hinton, I’ll interrupt you no longer. I’ll take my leave now.”

Nancy looked at Summer’s retreating figure as she gritted her teeth and seethed, “Son of a b*tch! Are mistresses running rampant nowadays? I can’t believe she dares to show herself in front of you. Humph! Lacey, I’d strongly suggest that you fire her!”

Lacey sighed, “Let’s work on the opening ceremony. I don’t want to bother myself with anything other than work right now.”

The Hintons entered Love in a Fallen City.

Numerous famous people from the corporate world were already waiting in the hall.

When they saw Lacey, they hurriedly came forward to congratulate her.

Their inquiries about Zeke embarrassed her.

To avoid further embarrassment, all they could do was to take Lacey to the lounge. She would only leave the room when the opening ceremony started.

Unexpectedly, she did not get the peace she wanted even after entering the lounge.

Soon, the doorbell rang.

Lacey answered, “Come in.”

Four people entered as the door swung open.

When they saw the others, Lacey and her family froze.

It was Adam, Daniel and his son, Emily, and Madeleine.

Although Lacey’s family did not like them, they still politely said, “Welcome to the opening ceremony of Love in a Fallen City. Please take a seat. The ceremony is about to begin.”
