Great Marshal: Marrying the Bridesmaid

Chapter 27

Lacey felt sympathetic towards her and was about to agree when Zeke sneered, “It's strange. Just

moments ago, you forgot I was family when I was ordered you to kneel. Lacey, let's go to the VIP room

and wait.”

With that, Zeke took Lacey and Hannah away.

Lily Hinton stumbled out of the bank, feeling lost and confused.

She turned around to take another look at the building. The longing in her eyes turned into vicious

cruelty.

“Damn, why are you always ahead of me in everything! I will not accept this willingly. That one hundred

million belongs to my whole family. You shall not take it for yourself.”

A hideous smile appeared at the corners of her mouth as an evil plan began to form in her mind.

In the VIP room, both Hannah and Lacey looked at Zeke, trying to read him.

Zeke felt uncomfortable under this type of scrutiny. “Lacey, do you have something to ask me?”

Lacey nodded. There were so many questions she wanted to ask.

However, before she could open her mouth, Hannah spoke first, “Zeke, come on, have a sip of tea.”

“Aunt... I mean, mom wants to ask you, where did this one hundred million come from?”

Zeke replied, “The Schneider family gave it to me.”

Despite the Bauhinia Royal Card itself having an overdraft limit of one hundred million, Evan Schneider

had still insisted on giving him a spending allowance of that amount.

As far as Zeke was concerned, one hundred million was just pocket money. He was free to spend it on

anything he wanted.

Lacey slapped her forehead as she came to a sudden realization. “The Schneider family paid the full

payment for their order in advance.”

Zeke neither agreed nor disagreed with her statement.

This one hundred million has nothing to do with that order... it's for me to personally spend on...

He was about to explain when Hannah smiled bitterly, “I suspected you were some low-key anonymous

rich man. I was really confused.”

Zeke was silent.

You aren't confused. Your suspicions are correct!

Lacey looked at Zeke questioningly, “This money is really the money the Schneider family gave me? Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

We have no deals with the Schneider family. Why would they care for us so well?”

Hannah Lawson suddenly remembered something and hurriedly said, “Lacey, I recall there was a

rumor that the Schneider family's also under the Great Marshal's control. The Great Marshal is surely

still in love with you and has instructed the Schneider family to take special care of you. If that's true,

then it isn't surprising that the Schneider family would pay in advance for the order.”

Lacey nodded her head thoughtfully, though she was not totally convinced.

It was not long before the one hundred million in cash was delivered.

Three fully loaded armed escort vehicles were required.

Hannah Lawson had mentally prepared herself, but at the sight of so much cash, her breathing

quickened. She was shaken.

These were fortunes ordinary people could not hope to earn in a few lifetimes. Yet, it now all belonged

to the Hinton family.

Due to the huge amount of money, the bank had personally sent escorts to transport the cash.

On the way back to the factory, Hannah was sobbing.

“Success, after working hard all of my life, finally, success is here...”

Zeke said nothing, feeling helpless.

It's nothing more than my pocket money. You're overreacting.

If I had shown you my true wealth, you would have died of shock.

I guess not revealing my true identity from the start was the right thing to do.

...

In the steel mill, the suppliers headed by Darren Collins were starting to be impatient after waiting for

so long.

Upon seeing Lacey, everybody surged forward and surrounded her.

“Ma'am, I think you might as well give up. How can you get a few million in cash, just like that? It's no

small feat! I advise you to hurry up and look for Mr. Hamilton. Bow and apologize to him for your

mistake. That'll save us a lot of trouble.”

Before Lacey could speak, Zeke stood in front of her. “I'll give you one last chance. If you're still

stubborn now, we won't relent when you beg us later.”

“Pfft!” The suppliers couldn't help but laugh, “Do you have a bigger head than others or a thicker neck?

Beg you? Why should we beg you?”
