Adam berated, “Shut up. You’re an outsider. You have no right to intervene in my family’s affairs. So what if Zeke comes back? What can he do? Either Logan arrests him or he dies by Hadley’s hands. He can barely save himself. He must have escaped to somewhere far by now. Why would he care about what happens to you?”
“Shut up, old man.” Dawn was furious. Ignoring the fact that he was her elder, she cursed at him. “Zeke isn’t the man you say he is.”
When he was scolded by a younger woman, Adam fumed, “How dare you go against me? How dare you? Arrest them all. Emily, there’s no need to do anything on my account anymore. Arrest them all, including this bratty girl.”
Lacey hurriedly interrupted, “Stop. I’ll sign, okay? Dawnie, don’t persuade me otherwise. Zeke is angry with me. He doesn’t want me anymore. Without him, what’s the point of having Linton Group?”
She raised her hand again to sign.
Dawn snatched the contract away and tore it into pieces.
“Lace, can you trust me for once? If I say Zeke is coming back, he’s coming back.”
Nancy quickly said, “I’d rather count on a pig than that kept man Williams. Don’t panic, Lacey. I’m calling someone. I’ll definitely save you all from this.”
Emily was infuriated.
Her contract was torn into pieces; she had lost her chance to her billions.
At that moment, she wished she could tear Dawn into pieces like the latter did to her contract.
Just then, Dawn’s phone rang.
She glanced and realized that it was from Zeke. Her hands shuddered in excitement.
Swiftly picking up the call, she sobbed out, “Where are you? Lacey and Nancy are being bullied by others. If you’re not coming back soon, you’ll be attending our funerals.”
“Dawnie, ask Lacey to look up.”
“Look up?” Dawn turned to Lacey and said, “Lacey, look up. Now.”
Lacey was confused, but she obliged.
Above her head was the ceiling.
However, she did not know why it had numerous vents.
The original luxurious-looking ceiling now looked like a honeycomb briquette.
Lacey mumbled, “Who changed the ceiling design without my permission? Why are there so many vents?”
At the same time, the crowd also looked up in curiosity.
The next second, gusts of wind blew out from the vents.
Immediately, countless white particles floated out of the vents.
In less than a minute, it was all over the hall.
The crowd did not know what was going on, and they were in a panic. Everyone was avoiding the white particles. Some even covered their heads with their clothes.
The white particles landed on their bodies, and it felt cooling and comfortable.
Abruptly, someone shouted, “They’re snowflakes!”
“Oh my god, these are snowflakes.”
Snowflakes!
Everybody’s minds was blown away.
Where did these snowflakes come from?
In the past five years, Oakheart City only snowed twice.
Moreover, it was June when the weather was hot.
What’s going on? It’s snowing in June.
After realizing that it was snow, the crowd stopped trying to avoid the white particles. All of them stood excitedly under the ceiling as snow enveloped them.
Pieces of crystal clear snowflakes landed on Lacey’s face and melted in her hot tears.
This is a miracle of snowing in June!
It really is.
I’m dreaming. I must be.
She reached out to cup a handful of snowflakes and leaned her cheeks onto it.
It was cold and comfortable. The sensation was genuine.
I’m not dreaming?
Beside her, Dawn was also in tears.
Her heart was melting from the picturesque and romantic sight.
Now, she finally knew why Zeke had gone to Northern Xinjiang.
