Great Marshal: Marrying the Bridesmaid novel Chapter 52

Lacey's uncle, Jeremy, was confused. “I heard you've fired by the Hamilton family. Who do you think you are to strike a deal with me?”

Emily told him the truth, “The Hamilton family? What a joke! They are but nothing to me!”

“I am now part of the Schneider family as a procurement specialist.”

“I will be in charge of the procurement for a huge project worth ten billion, which will be launched soon.”

“I want you to take over Lacey's steel mill. As long as you're able to get your hands on it, I'll have you take over the steel orders worth a billion. We'll split the profit into half for each of us.”

“What? A billion?” Jeremy's heart skipped a beat when he heard the fortune involved.

He agreed without any hesitation at all, “Sure! Let's seal the deal!”

“To be honest, I have been preparing to get my hands on Lacey's steel mill as well. I'm at the final stage of preparation. Everything will be ready soon.”

“If everything turns out accordingly, the steel mill will belong to me by tomorrow.”

Emily replied, “I can't wait for the great news! I look forward to working with you as well.”

Jeremy gulped down two glasses of water after he hung up the call to calm himself down.

He rushed over to pay his father, Adam Hinton, a visit right after he regained his composure.

Jeremy initiated a conversation with his dad. “Dad, I have something to discuss with you.”

“Speak,” replied Adam.

Jeremy told him what he was up to. “Dad, when we decided to take a different path from one another, you gave me a plot of ten-hectare land while Daniel was given a plot of five-hectare land.”

“I mean, I'm not in the line of business either. I can't possibly fully utilize the plot of land given to me. Instead, I think Lacey might need it since she's currently expanding her business.”

“Is it fine for me to exchange the plot of ten-hectare land of mine with the five-hectare that Lacey owns?”

Adam's eyes widened. He glared at Jeremy, “Hmph! I think the one you want is Lacey's steel mill, right?”

“She built the mills on the plot of land given to them. If you manage to get your hands on their plot of land, that means you will be the owner of the steel mill.”

“Jeremy, I'll be honest with you. I don't think you're able to run a business on your own. Please allow Lacey to take care of the steel mill instead.”

Jeremy was embarrassed as his father had managed to see through his plan immediately.
