The neighbors started chatted up with both Daniel and Hannah after that.
“Daniel, you’re really being too low profile. You have all the reasons to be cocky and yet you’re so humble. You really deserve to be wealthy.”
“Daniel, you’re making all of us proud.”
“Right, we should elect a new model family for our neighborhood.”
The two of them were pleasantly surprised at the neighbors’ praises and grinned from ear to ear.
This son-in-law is indeed making us proud.
Lacey’s heart raced at Zeke’s announcements.
So he acquired Grand Empire Group as well and Linton Group has expanded further!
She carefully articulated her words, “Zeke, would you mind explaining to me what is with Grand Empire Group?”
“Oh, it’s really a coincidence. The former boss of Grand Empire Group wanted to rope in Master Williams; thus, he gave this company to him. However, it was unfortunate that Master Williams was not interested in managing it, so he gave it away to Eclipse.”
“You should know that Eclipse was only fit for killing, and not no idea how to run a business. Hence, he passes it to me, and that’s how I got to manage the company.”
Lacey could not quite believe his words, “Really? Just like that? Up till now, every other asset under Linton Group was somehow gifted to you. One or two would have been okay but it kept happening that I couldn’t keep count this time. How good must you be for everyone to hand you their assets just like that?”
Zeke grinned, “I don’t know? I guess I’m a lucky man.”
Lacey sighed, “But I am definitely going to get to the bottom of this. There’s no way you’re getting off this just like that. By the way, there’s no way for Henry to be our brand ambassador now. Who should I appoint as our ambassador then? I’m getting a headache just thinking about it.”
Zeke smiled, “Lacey, let me introduce someone to you. I bet you’re going to be happy with this.”
This piqued Lacey’s interest, “Who is it?”
Zeke looked at the time and murmured to himself, “She should be here by now.”
When Zeke knew that Lacey was displeased with Henry, he contacted Mia Young right away and asked her to come here.
A white BMW could be seen pulling into the driveway after Zeke was done talking.
The luxurious cars garnered the neighbors’ attention right away.
They were guessing who the car owner might be, and her reason for coming here.
The owner’s identity was revealed the moment the car door was open.
The onlookers were abuzz at the revelation.
It’s Mia Young!
It’s the superstar, Mia Young!
Mia Young was an A-list celebrity, unlike Henry Jones.
But why would an A-list celebrity come to this part of the neighborhood?
Lacey was the most excited person when she saw Mia.
Mia was her idol after all.
Lacey’s eyes brimmed with tears. Mia, you’re my idol. I never thought that I’d be able to meet you in real life. I must get her signature. Damn it, I don’t have any pen or paper on me. I’m just gonna let her sign on my face then.
Under everyone’s scrutinizing gaze, Mia approached Zeke and bowed to him, “Mr. Williams, I’m really sorry for I was late because of the traffic. I hope I did not cause any inconvenience to you.”
What the...
The onlookers almost had their eyes popped out.
Even Mia Young, the superstar, was also a subordinate of Daniel Hinton’s son-in-law!
The Hinton son-in-law was much humbler than they thought!
Lacey was so excited that she could not utter a single word.
