Jeremy trembled in fear because of the misfortune had befallen the moment he took over the steel mill.
He immediately explained himself, “Mr. Geoffrey, I have just taken over the steel mill.”
“I wasn't the one who supplied the steels for the Schneider family previously. Someone else was behind the particular deal. Please go after that person in charge instead.”
Mr. Geoffrey sneered, “I believe that's an internal affair of your company. It has nothing to do with me at all.”
“All I have to do is to deal with the person in charge of the steel mill as of now.”

Jeremy was handcuffed by police immediately.
He broke down and lost his cool as he shouted at Lily hysterically, “Lily, go get Lacey!”
“She's the person in charge of the steel mill! We shall return it to her!”
Lily was frightened by what was going on. She only managed to return to her senses when she heard Jeremy's words.
She cried and replied, “Don't worry, dad! I'll go get Lacey immediately!”
“That damned Lacey! How dare you set us up!”
She rushed towards Lacey's place immediately as she was afraid the police would take her away with them as well.
Emily stiffened all of a sudden, her mind all over the place.
She would never have expected such an incident to occur. Things turned out exactly the other way around, even though she had racked her brain to develop the malicious scheme.
If she hadn't persuaded Jeremy to take over the steel mill, Lacey would be the one taken away instead.
