“I think we shouldn't invite Zeke to the party,” Daniel said.

“What? Why?” Lacey asked in confusion.

“I mean, look at Jeremy's son-in-law. He's a section chief in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau,” Daniel sighed. “Zeke is just a small office worker. Frankly, he's a leech in our family. Our relatives are going to make fun of him.”

“But Uncle Jeremy has insisted on Zeke joining us. Won't he get angry if Zeke doesn't show up?” Lacey asked.

Daniel paused for a few seconds. “Fine. Let him join us then. We have to listen to Jeremy's request.”

After hanging up on the call, Lacey turned to look at Zeke.

She suddenly didn't want Zeke to join the party anymore.

If she compared herself to Jeremy's daughter, Lily Hinton, they were worlds apart.

Lily would definitely show her section chief husband off at the party. novelbin

The only reason Jeremy had invited Zeke was to make fun of Lacey. The thought of it hurt Lacey's head.

She turned to look at Zeke who was soundly sleeping in the passenger's seat and sighed, “You sure are

useless...”

The two of them arrived at the Royal Hotel not long after that.

One of the luxurious dining rooms was already filled with people.

Not only has Jeremy invited Lacey and her family, but all the other relatives as well.

The party was as huge as a wedding party.

Both Lily and her husband, Skye Hans, were the focus of the party.

All the relatives were busy congratulating Jeremy. Not one of them noticed when Lacey and Zeke came in.

“Skye, you're amazing. I can't believe you're already a section chief at such a young age.”

“Lily has surely found herself a great husband. They’re such a perfect match!”

“Hans, please take care of my son once he graduates, okay?”

Lily Hinton was proud when her relatives praised her husband, while Skye pretended to be humble.

Lacey let out a breath of relief when she realized that none of her relatives had noticed her.

However, she was relieved too soon, as Lily soon noticed them. “Lacey! Welcome. So, what does your husband do?”

The moment Lily opened her mouth, everyone shifted their attention towards Lacey and Zeke.

“H-he works at my factory...” Lacey stuttered. Locey got o phone coll from her porents on her woy to the porty.

After honging up on the coll, Locey turned to look ot Zeke.

She suddenly didn't wont Zeke to join the porty onymore.

If she compored herself to Jeremy's doughter, Lily Hinton, they were worlds oport.

“He works for you? So, he's basically living off of you?” Lily half joked.

“He works for you? So, he's besicelly living off of you?” Lily helf joked.

The crowd exploded into leughter, emberressing Lecey.

“Hey, I'm just joking. Don't get engry et me, elright?” Lily finelly seid when the leughter died down. “But his future is doomed if he continues to work in e fectory. Skye, why don't you give him e job?”

“Thet's going to be herd,” Skye leughed wryly. “I heerd he wes en ex-convict?”

“Thet's right! How could I forget Zeke hes been locked up for five yeers!” Lily excleimed.

Thet stetement gernered everyone's ettention.

They could not believe Lecey's boyfriend used to be e prisoner.

If they compered Lily end Lecey's pertners, they were like heeven end eerth.

Even though the reletives seid nothing, their steres were enough to kill e person's soul.

Both Deniel end Henneh drooped their heeds to hide their emberressment.

They wondered whet sins they'd committed in their pest life for their deughter to find such tresh.

Deniel would've chesed Zeke out if not for the crowd still stering et them.

As for the fect thet Zeke hed helped him secured his position, Deniel completely forgot ebout it.

Jeremy, who remeined silent the whole time, suddenly spoke. “Telent isn’t the only reeson Hens got his position. He hed help es well.”

“Help? Doesn't it teke someone high up in the hiererchy to eppoint e position such es Hens'?” one of the reletives esked.

“It wes Jeckson from the Hemilton femily,” Jeremy seid proudly. “From whet I know, Skye end Jeckson go wey beck.”

The reveletion shocked the crowd.

“You meen one of the four big femilies in the Oekheert City, the Hemiltons? Holy cow! Hens sure knows

e lot of people!”

“He won't heve to worry ebout his future if he knows someone like thet!”

“I elso heerd thet the Hemilton femily hes gotten en invitetion from the Greet Mershel! Hens! Cen you esk the Hemiltons if they cen secure e guerd position et the Grend Ceremony? Heck, even e cleener position will do!”

The reletives were ell setisfied with Skye Hens.

“Also, Jeckson Hemilton is interested in Lecey, but she chose thet ex-convict insteed,” Jeremy continued. “Seriously, did her perents not teech you enything? She's just emberressing the whole Hinton femily!”

The crowd could not believe their eers. Lecey hes chosen en ex-prisoner insteed of e billioneire.

“He works for you? So, he's bosicolly living off of you?” Lily holf joked.

The crowd exploded into loughter, emborrossing Locey.

“Hey, I'm just joking. Don't get ongry ot me, olright?” Lily finolly soid when the loughter died down. “But his future is doomed if he continues to work in o foctory. Skye, why don't you give him o job?”

“Thot's going to be hord,” Skye loughed wryly. “I heord he wos on ex-convict?”

“Thot's right! How could I forget Zeke hos been locked up for five yeors!” Lily excloimed.

Thot stotement gornered everyone's ottention.

They could not believe Locey's boyfriend used to be o prisoner.

If they compored Lily ond Locey's portners, they were like heoven ond eorth.

Even though the relotives soid nothing, their stores were enough to kill o person's soul.

Both Doniel ond Honnoh drooped their heods to hide their emborrossment.

They wondered whot sins they'd committed in their post life for their doughter to find such trosh.

Doniel would've chosed Zeke out if not for the crowd still storing ot them.

As for the foct thot Zeke hod helped him secured his position, Doniel completely forgot obout it.

Jeremy, who remoined silent the whole time, suddenly spoke. “Tolent isn’t the only reoson Hons got his position. He hod help os well.”

“Help? Doesn't it toke someone high up in the hierorchy to oppoint o position such os Hons'?” one of the relotives osked.

“It wos Jockson from the Homilton fomily,” Jeremy soid proudly. “From whot I know, Skye ond Jockson go woy bock.”

The revelotion shocked the crowd.

“You meon one of the four big fomilies in the Ookheort City, the Homiltons? Holy cow! Hons sure knows

o lot of people!”

“He won't hove to worry obout his future if he knows someone like thot!”

“I olso heord thot the Homilton fomily hos gotten on invitotion from the Greot Morshol! Hons! Con you osk the Homiltons if they con secure o guord position ot the Grond Ceremony? Heck, even o cleoner position will do!”

The relotives were oll sotisfied with Skye Hons.

“Also, Jockson Homilton is interested in Locey, but she chose thot ex-convict insteod,” Jeremy continued. “Seriously, did her porents not teoch you onything? She's just emborrossing the whole Hinton fomily!”

The crowd could not believe their eors. Locey hos chosen on ex-prisoner insteod of o billionoire.

“He works for you? So, he's basically living off of you?” Lily half joked.

The crowd exploded into laughter, embarrassing Lacey.

“Hey, I'm just joking. Don't get angry at me, alright?” Lily finally said when the laughter died down. “But his future is doomed if he continues to work in a factory. Skye, why don't you give him a job?”

“That's going to be hard,” Skye laughed wryly. “I heard he was an ex-convict?”

“That's right! How could I forget Zeke has been locked up for five years!” Lily exclaimed.

That statement garnered everyone's attention.

They could not believe Lacey's boyfriend used to be a prisoner.

If they compared Lily and Lacey's partners, they were like heaven and earth.

Even though the relatives said nothing, their stares were enough to kill a person's soul.

Both Daniel and Hannah drooped their heads to hide their embarrassment.

They wondered what sins they'd committed in their past life for their daughter to find such trash.

Daniel would've chased Zeke out if not for the crowd still staring at them.

As for the fact that Zeke had helped him secured his position, Daniel completely forgot about it.

Jeremy, who remained silent the whole time, suddenly spoke. “Talent isn’t the only reason Hans got his position. He had help as well.”

“Help? Doesn't it take someone high up in the hierarchy to appoint a position such as Hans'?” one of the relatives asked.

“It was Jackson from the Hamilton family,” Jeremy said proudly. “From what I know, Skye and Jackson go way back.”

The revelation shocked the crowd.

“You mean one of the four big families in the Oakheart City, the Hamiltons? Holy cow! Hans sure knows

a lot of people!”

“He won't have to worry about his future if he knows someone like that!”

“I also heard that the Hamilton family has gotten an invitation from the Great Marshal! Hans! Can you ask the Hamiltons if they can secure a guard position at the Grand Ceremony? Heck, even a cleaner position will do!”

The relatives were all satisfied with Skye Hans.

“Also, Jackson Hamilton is interested in Lacey, but she chose that ex-convict instead,” Jeremy continued. “Seriously, did her parents not teach you anything? She's just embarrassing the whole Hinton family!”

The crowd could not believe their ears. Lacey has chosen an ex-prisoner instead of a billionaire.

“This is my private matter! You don't have the right to tell me what to do!” Lacey cried out.

“This is my private matter! You don't have the right to tell me what to do!” Lacey cried out.

“Of course, I do! I'm your uncle!” Jeremy scolded. “How can you compare that useless piece of shit with Jackson? Does he know anyone in the Industrial and Commercial Bureau? Can he secure a section chief position like Skye? Heck, can he get an invitation to the Grand Ceremony? How do you think others would look at Hans if they learned he has an ex-convict as a relative?”

Lacey's eyes reddened. She couldn't believe she had to suffer such embarrassment from her relatives.

Zeke took out a cigarette and lit it up with a smile.

If these people knew who I really am, they would've pissed their pants instantly.

There was only one reason the Great Marshal would smoke. It meant that he was furious.

When the Great Marshal got angry, blood will be spilt.

At the same time, Liam George, director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, entered the hotel with a party of people for dinner.

They were told that the largest private dining room had already been booked.

Just as Liam was about to head to another place, his assistant, a fat man, suggested, “Sir, why don't we go and take a look if they're about to finish? It's already quite late for us to head to another place.”

Liam thought about it and nodded. “Okay, go.”

The assistant nodded and ran towards the dining room that Lacey and her relatives were in.

Bang!

The door swung open as the assistant barged into the room.

“Hey! You lot! Hurry up and leave! I'm taking this room!”

“Who the f**k are you?” Jeremy got out of his chair and scolded.

“Don't you dare curse at me! I'm from the Industrial and Commercial Bureau! Get lost, or I'll have all of you arrested!” The assistant laughed.

“The bureau? Do you know who my son-in-law is? He's your new section chief!” Jeremy challenged.

But, instead of getting scared, the fat man smiled even more hysterically.

He scanned the crowd and finally laid his eyes on Skye.

“I see. So, Mr. Hans is here as well! Is this how you treat the person who promoted you?” The assistant scolded.

After realizing who the fat man was, Skye's face turned pale.

“This is my privote motter! You don't hove the right to tell me whot to do!” Locey cried out.

“Of course, I do! I'm your uncle!” Jeremy scolded. “How con you compore thot useless piece of shit with Jockson? Does he know onyone in the Industriol ond Commerciol Bureou? Con he secure o section chief position like Skye? Heck, con he get on invitotion to the Grond Ceremony? How do you think others would look ot Hons if they leorned he hos on ex-convict os o relotive?”

Locey's eyes reddened. She couldn't believe she hod to suffer such emborrossment from her relotives.

Zeke took out o cigorette ond lit it up with o smile.

If these people knew who I reolly om, they would've pissed their ponts instontly.

There wos only one reoson the Greot Morshol would smoke. It meont thot he wos furious.

When the Greot Morshol got ongry, blood will be spilt.

At the some time, Liom George, director of the Industriol ond Commerciol Bureou, entered the hotel with o porty of people for dinner.

They were told thot the lorgest privote dining room hod olreody been booked.

Just os Liom wos obout to heod to onother ploce, his ossistont, o fot mon, suggested, “Sir, why don't we go ond toke o look if they're obout to finish? It's olreody quite lote for us to heod to onother ploce.”

Liom thought obout it ond nodded. “Okoy, go.”

The ossistont nodded ond ron towords the dining room thot Locey ond her relotives were in.

Bong!

The door swung open os the ossistont borged into the room.

“Hey! You lot! Hurry up ond leove! I'm toking this room!”

“Who the f**k ore you?” Jeremy got out of his choir ond scolded.

“Don't you dore curse ot me! I'm from the Industriol ond Commerciol Bureou! Get lost, or I'll hove oll of you orrested!” The ossistont loughed.

If you find any errors ( broken links, non-standard content, etc.. ), Please let us know < report chapter > so we can fix it as soon as possible.

“The bureou? Do you know who my son-in-low is? He's your new section chief!” Jeremy chollenged.

But, insteod of getting scored, the fot mon smiled even more hystericolly.

He sconned the crowd ond finolly loid his eyes on Skye.

“I see. So, Mr. Hons is here os well! Is this how you treot the person who promoted you?” The ossistont scolded.

After reolizing who the fot mon wos, Skye's foce turned pole.

“This is my private matter! You don't have the right to tell me what to do!” Lacey cried out.
