Lacey and Nancy exchanged glances but kept mum.

Dave looked at Daisy and said, “Ms. Daisy, I believe you're sincere in acquiring Linton Group, but I'm afraid fifty million is not an adequate sum. How about this? You pay fifty million for the company and settle the penalty on behalf of Ms. Hinton. What do you think?”

Daisy grinned. “Well, I can't say no to your proposal since you've put in a good word for Ms. Hinton, right? By the way, I want Ms. Hinton to know that Linton Group is a worthless company. No one will dare to buy it if she refuses to sell it to me!”

Dave immediately turned to Lacey and said, “Did you hear what Ms. Daisy said? I don't think you have any other options. I can only do so much for you. The choice is yours.”

At this point, there was nothing Lacey could do. It's either I accept their offer or plunge into despair.

After taking in a deep breath and discussing the offer with Nancy, she said, “All right. I agree to—”

Before she could complete her sentence, a voice rang out from the crowd. “I disagree!”

The thunderous voice echoed through the entire space.

Stunned, the crowd traced the source of the voice. Who is that?


A tall, strapping figure walked in Lacey's and Dave's direction.

He strode out from the crowd in steady steps while exuding a king-like intimidating aura. The people around him instantly distanced themselves and gave way for him to walk through.

Upon noticing the man from a stone's throw away, Lacey heaved a sigh of relief. Tears that welled up in her eyes began to roll down her cheeks.

Losing control over her emotions, she ran up and threw herself at him. “Zeke, you're back.”

That man was none other than Zeke Williams!

Zeke had released his energy to detect Killer Wolf around the area, and with a snap of his fingers, he had managed to track his whereabouts.

He had ordered Sole Wolf to look for Killer Wolf because he could tell the latter was still alive.

At the same time, he had come to look for Lacey to ensure she was not in danger.

Zeke's sixth sense was indeed accurate. By the time he arrived, Lacey was already skating on thin ice.

Zeke could not help but feel sorry for her. How dare they bully my wife? I must teach these people a lesson!

Zeke gently patted Lacey's shoulder and said, “Sorry, I'm late, Lacey.”

Lacey responded, “Not at all, Zeke.”

“Don't worry, Lacey. I'll take it from here. All's well will end well.”

Lacey responded with a wry smile. “We have no other choices, Zeke.”
