Evan replied humbly, “Sure. I'll work on it immediately. I'll get him to surrender himself by tonight.”
Zeke walked into the house and saw Hannah crying hysterically as she was scolding Daniel.
“Daniel! If you're a man, follow me to dad's place and confront him! We have to get the steel mill back!”
“I have never seen someone as biased as him! It seems like that senile fool doesn't even think of us as part of his family! To be honest, I don't think he treats us as humans!”
“The steel mill is what we rely on! It's our source of income! Are you seriously going to hand it over to them?”
Daniel remained silent and finished the cigarette he had.
Although he seemed to be relatively calm, he was heartbroken deep down as well because he had not expected his father to treat him and his family in such a cruel way.
He was in such dire straits because of his father.
Daniel couldn't help but doubt that he wasn't one of Adam Hinton's sons.
Although he was abhorred, he had no guts to retaliate against his brothers, let alone his father.
He knew what would be in store for him even if he were to confront Adam. Daniel wouldn't be of much help, and he might be beaten up by Adam instead.
Hannah could no longer hold back her anger because of her husband's behaviour, “Get out! You don't deserve to stay with us!”
“You can't even defend our daughter! You're a coward! I don't need such a coward like you!”
“Don't come home if you can't get the steel mill back!”
Despite being a coward, Daniel could no longer suppress his anger when he heard Hannah's harsh words.
“Shut up! I'll get going immediately!”
“If dad refuses to return Lacey the steel mill, I'll commit suicide in front of him!”
Daniel rushed out of the house right after he finished his sentence.
However, Zeke got in his way and stopped him. “Dad, that won't be necessary.”
“Uncle and grandpa will definitely get on their knees in front of us and beg for forgiveness tonight. They will surely return the steel mill to us.”
Everyone was shocked and stared at Zeke in disbelief when they heard his words.
Zeke reassured them with a determined look on his face. “Trust me!”
Daniel turned around and looked at Hannah as he was trying to figure out what she had in her mind.
Hannah remained silent for quite some time before she heaved a heavy sigh. “Fine! We'll deal with it tomorrow.”
Lacey cast a confused gaze at Zeke as her mind was all over the place.
