With a wry smile, Lacey shook her head. “Forget it. Do whatever you want. From now on, you're not © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.
allowed to set foot in my steel mill.”
“I'm afraid you will lose your steel mill soon,” Lily stated.
Lacey asked, “What do you mean?”
Jackson chimed in, ”Let me warn you, Lacey. If the Schneider family is taking action against you later,
just beg me, and maybe I can help you. Otherwise, destruction awaits.”
Lacey frowned. “Why would the Schneider family take action against me?”
She suddenly thought of something as her face went pale.
“Damn it. Lily, did you do something to my bid proposal?”
Lily played innocent. “What bid proposal? I didn't see it.”
Lacey instantly exploded with rage.
Damn it. She really denies it.
She must have done something to it.
She said through gritted teeth, “Lily, y-you're worse than an animal. What would you gain by making me
bankrupt?”
“What are you talking about? I don't understand you at all,” Lily sneered. “Jackson, let's go back to our
seats. They will surely come to beg us later.”
Jackson said indifferently, “I'll tell you one thing, Lacey. As I said last time, I will make you engaged to
me in ten days. It's the tenth day today. You'd better think properly whether you want to be killed by the
Schneider family or to marry me.”
Zeke, who had been silent all this while, suddenly said, “I'll tell you one thing too. If the Schneider
family takes action against you later, you can come and beg us. Of course, I would lose if I helped you,
though.”
Pfft!
Jackson chuckled. “Beg you? Beg you and make a fool of yourselves? Haha! What a joke. Let's go,
Lily.”
Jackson then left with Lily.
Lacey turned red with anger. “Damn, Lily is so cruel. To think that I trusted her so much.”
Zeke patted her on the shoulder. “Now that you've seen her true colours, I hope you learn from it and
not be soft-hearted next time.”
Lacey sighed. “Let's go, Zeke. There's no more hope for us in this tender. We may even anger the
Schneider family as well.”
“A piece of advice, don't ever give up hope until the very last moment. Who knows? There might be a
miracle!”
Lacey was speechless.
He thinks a miracle is something that we can come across everywhere, doesn't he?
Lacey repeatedly told him she wanted to leave, but Zeke insisted on staying and waiting for the miracle
to happen.
So, Lacey had no choice but to stay.
She was now almost dying of anxiety, as she didn't know what kind of bid proposal Lily had submitted
on her behalf.
Would the Schneider family deem the messy bid proposal they received as a sign of disrespect and get
mad?
Hopefully, Lily didn't go too far.
However, the truth was that Lily was cruel. She replaced the content of her bid proposal with insults to
the Schneider family.
Soon, the master of ceremonies took the stage.
After a brief opening line, he got down to business.
“Next, let us welcome Mr. Evan Schneider from the Schneider family in Oakheart City.”
The initially boisterous hall immediately fell silent.
Everyone looked at the stage expectantly.
A middle-aged man in a suit stepped up to the rostrum with great panache.
Evan Schneider was the richest man in Oakheart City, and the delegate to the People's Congress in
Rivermouth.
He had started from scratch and built a business empire in just a few years.
To date, his success story was still being recorded in textbooks, while many businessmen regarded him
as their life goal and a business legend.
A big round of thunderous applause was given to this god-like man.
Zeke suddenly smiled.
A pawn I've arbitrarily placed has now grown to such a towering height. I'm amazed.
