Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 119

Lacey found Zeke's words hilarious and childish at the same time. “Mind your manners, okay? That's not how you're supposed to solve a problem! No one has offended me, but I'm quite concerned with the construction of Love in a Fallen City.”
Lacey found Zeke's words hilarious and childish at the same time. “Mind your manners, okay? That's not how you're supposed to solve a problem! No one has offended me, but I'm quite concerned with the construction of Love in a Fallen City.”

Zeke asked curiously, “What's wrong with Love in a Fallen City?”

Lacey told Zeke, “Sigh... The scale of the project exceeds what I had in mind. I've consolidated both our steel mill and raw material production plant, but it can't uphold the construction of Love in a Fallen City.”

She continued in a sad tone, “We have to expand the scale of our factory to accommodate the construction's needs. Otherwise, we may not complete the project in the designated time.”

Zeke suggested, “It's simple! Let's expand the factories if that's the case!”

Lacey replied, “It's not such a simple task! We won't be able to expand the factories due to the limited resources we have at the moment. However, I've generated another solution!”

“What is it? Tell me!”

“Well, the government is going to put Hamilton Construction up for auction. The reserve price is merely a hundred million! If we're able to acquire Hamilton Construction, we'll be able to accommodate the needs of Love in a Fallen City's construction!” Lacey grinned.

Zeke nodded and replied, “Sure! If that's the case, let's acquire Hamilton Construction then!”

Zeke had always wanted to transfer the ownership of Hamilton Construction to Lacey.

However, he knew Lacey might decline his offer as she would only accept gifts she thought she deserved.

Hence, he decided to get rid of it through an auction in disguise.

Zeke would then sell it off to Lacey for a price below the market value to satisfy Lacey's need.

Lacey massaged her temples and voiced out her concerns, “I'm afraid a lot of the corporate players are eyeing Hamilton Construction as well since it's such a tempting offer. Are you sure we'll outmatch the corporate players?”
Locey found Zeke's words hilorious ond childish ot the some time. “Mind your monners, okoy? Thot's not how you're supposed to solve o problem! No one hos offended me, but I'm quite concerned with the construction of Love in o Follen City.”

Savior Clinic had stalled its operation for two consecutive days because all of their customers had headed over to Savior Clinic.

Madeleine knew it would be impossible for them to sustain their business in Merwin District. Hence, she had decided to move elsewhere.
