Zeke smiled as though he was aware of the truth and he said, “Based on your expression, It seems like you’ve managed to figure out what’s really going on, huh?”

In return, Lacey replied with a shocked expression, “Does that mean what I have in mind is the truth?”

“Before that, why don’t you share with me what you have in mind?” asked Zeke.

Lacey shared what she had in mind with Zeke. “Well, you managed to find out that the methamphetamine Emily had used to try to murder us back then was produced by Reagan Pharmaceutical, and Logan is the owner of the said company. Perhaps Reagan Pharmaceutical doesn’t operate on a small scale.”

“Could it be that instead of producing meth in small quantities, Reagan Pharmaceutical actually has a complete production line capable of mass production? If that’s the case, they definitely won’t allow Linton Group to take over their business. Otherwise, they’d have to bear huge consequences due to the illegal activities they have been doing.”

Zeke gave Lacey’s nose a pinch and praised her, “What a smart girl! That’s why we have to get our hands on Reagan Pharmaceutical so that we can get rid of them once and for all.”

Lacey rubbed her nose and her eyes brimmed with tears of pain. She complained, “Hey! It hurts! I’ve told countless times to be gentle with me!”

Immediately, Zeke apologized with a guilty look on his face, “I’m so sorry. I’ll definitely keep that in mind in the future.”

“What? Does that mean you’re going to do this again in the future? Do you have a death wish?” asked Lacey in return.

“It’s a criminal offence to kill your husband!” rebutted Zeke.


In the meantime, Gordon, who was by their side, looked at the lovey-dovey pair in envy and thought to himself.

Mr. Williams is such a flawless man. He’s both an influential man and a loving husband.

Gordon was inspired by Zeke deep down. He was determined to become someone like Zeke.

Suddenly, Lacey flushed and moved away from Zeke when she noticed Gordon’s presence.

However, Zeke held her in between his arms against her will in a domineering manner. He beckoned Gordon over, “Gordon, come over here!”

Gordon rushed over immediately. “Mr. Williams, I have sorted out the intel according to your request. This is the footage of the incident.”

Once Zeke got his hands on the footage, he sneered once he played it, “I guess it’s not that much of a surprise. Mr. Terence was the one behind everything again. It seems like he has yet to learn his lesson, huh?”

In return, Gordon asked, “Mr. Williams, why don’t we publish the video? We can easily ruin Mr. Terence’s reputation easily by doing so.”

When Zeke heard Gordon’s suggestion, he instructed, “That won’t be necessary for the time being. Let’s allow the crowd to express their point of view as of now. We’ll decide on the next best course of action tonight.”

Lacey took a peek at Zeke and teased, “Such a pretentious man.”

“Cough, cough...” Zeke cleared his throat when he heard Lacey’s reply.

As a matter of fact, he received several calls from the authorities of Oakheart City by evening.

Once Zeke received their calls, he knew it was time to move on to the next phase of his plan as they had called to verify the authenticity of the news.

Hence, Zeke called Sharon and instructed, “It’s time to execute the plan!”

Another round of intense debate was about to kick-start.

Everyone from Oakheart City and Rivermouth was talking about the news.
