Even Lacey’s face was flushed red from anger.
Zeke then ordered, “Tell Zach to scram and tell him his plan has succeeded, just in case he doesn’t have the guts to come.”
Alec did not dare to disobey his order.
Now, his priority was to swiftly settle this matter so that he could go to the hospital.
The pain was killing him.
With trembling hands, he called Zach.
“Sir, everything has gone according to plan. All we need now is for you to make your appearance.”
Zach was overjoyed to hear his words. “Very well. Watch that girl, Lacey. Don’t give her any chances to escape. I’ll be right there.”
While waiting for Zach, Zeke messaged Wolf’s Greed, Take down Eurasia Pictures.
Wolf’s Greed responded quickly after. Copy that.
Soon, Zach arrived at Eurasia Pictures.
He rushed into the office with a barely concealable look of lust. “Where’s Lacey? Bring me... F**k! Zeke, why are you here?”
Zeke sneered, “I’ve been waiting for you.”
Zach’s heart skipped a beat when he finally realized that things had gone south.
Without losing a beat, he turned to escape.
However, Zeke would never let him leave.
He suddenly grabbed the cup from the table and threw it at Zach.
The cup landed right on Zach’s knee and shattered.
At the same time, he fell to his knees.
With a dark expression on his face, Zach shrieked, “Zeke, you’re going overboard this time! You were stirring trouble at my wedding yesterday, and you’re here hitting me today. I’ll make you pay the price!”
Zeke scoffed, “So you do know you’ve just gotten married yesterday? Yet you’re out here looking for other women on the second day of your married life. Tell me, what do you think the Lewis family will do when they find out about this?”
Zach gritted out, “F**k. If you dare to speak a word about this, I’ll make sure your head will never reunite with your body.”
Zeke hummed nonchalantly. “Sure. I’m fine about keeping it a secret. But you’ll have to hand me the ownership of the company.”
Zach ground out, “Keep dreaming! You’re just an abandoned son of the Williams family. How could you have ever thought of inheriting the family’s business?”
Zeke shook his head. “No, you’ve misunderstood my words. I’ve never thought of inheriting the family business, and I never will. I meant I want the company.”
Zach laughed joyfully. “Do you actually think you can get the company without my permission? What a joke.”
Zeke shrugged. “Alright, let’s see if I can get the company without your permission, then.”
Meanwhile, Wolf’s Greed was on the move.
He had led a troop of soldiers to Conrad’s house.
Conrad instantly recognized Wolf’s Greed at one glance.
Isn’t this the Great Marshal’s disciple, General Cosmopolis?
Even Conrad’s son, who was a general, had to behave obediently in front of this man.
His heart started pounding; Conrad was unsure if the man was here as an enemy or as a friend.
He stepped forward to greet with a lowered head, “General Cosmopolis, you’ve graced us with your presence. Please forgive me for not welcoming you in a better way.”
Wolf’s Greed waved, dismissing his words. “Spare your pleasantries. I’m only here for one thing.”
Conrad hurriedly replied, “Please, enlighten me.”
Wolf’s Greed continued, “I heard you asked for 10 percent of the Williams family’s share as a gift for the Great Marshal’s appearance. The Great Marshal did attend the wedding yesterday, but he received no such gift. I was wondering if you had taken the gift for yourself.”
Conrad’s mind went blank.
He had thought the Great Marshal would not be concerned with such a small amount, so he had been planning to keep the shares for himself.
He never thought the Great Marshal would notice his actions.
If the Great Marshal were infuriated by this, even ten heads would not be enough for the Great Marshal to behead.
