Great Marshal: Marrying the Bridesmaid

Chapter 63

Lacey shouted angrily, “Zeke, what's wrong with you? Why are we engaging in an unprofitable deal?”

Zeke lowered his voice and whispered into Lacey's ears, “Don't worry. Do you believe me if I tell you

that this ten-hectare plot of land will be able to generate a tenfold and a hundredfold fortune for us?”

“What do you think? It's about time for you to trust me, right?”

Lacey cast a thoughtful gaze at Zeke before she nodded. “Alright, it's a deal from me.”

She decided to trust him again.

Soon, they carried out the required procedures and transferred the ownership of the ten-hectare plot of

land over to Lacey.

Hannah reluctantly handed over the safe box to Jeremy.

Her eyes brimmed with tears as they departed with the safe box containing a million. “Zeke, are you

sure you'll be able to generate a fortune worth a million with this plot of land?”

Zeke shook his head. “Nope.”

Lacey and her family were disappointed.

Zeke went on, “But I can create a tenfold or even a hundredfold fortune.”

Lacey and her family raised their heads at his words.

Based on the current real estate market, it would be a miracle if that plot of land could double in value.

Tenfold? Hundredfold? Seriously?

Daniel had to leave as he had to rush to the hospital for his shift.

Before heading home, Hannah told Zeke, “Remember to come home for lunch.”

Lacey didn't dive into her work as she cast a sceptical gaze at Zeke. “Please explain what happened

with the Schneider family to me.”

“They are such a prominent family! It's impossible for them to make such a silly mistake. They couldn't

have mistaken the low-quality steels as the ones we supplied them.”

“I mean, the timing seems too much to be a coincidence.”

Zeke decided to tell her the truth, “Actually, the Schneider family belongs to me.”

“Evan Schneider is but a puppet of mine.”

“I was the one behind everything.”

Lacey had a headache when she heard his words. “You... What should I do with you?”

“Fine. Forget about it. I have no intention to poke my nose into your business either.”

“I have a lot to deal with. Why don't you drop by the workshop and keep an eye on the quality of the

steels produced?”

Zeke felt helpless and speechless at the same time.

I have told you the truth, but you refuse to believe my words. You leave me with no choice but to lie to

you.

Actually, Lacey wasn't the one to be blamed either.

Perhaps only a mentally retarded person would believe that the top conglomerate's leader, Evan

Schneider, was someone else's puppet.

...

On the same day, certain news took Oakheart City by storm and affected the whole corporate world of

Rivermouth.

The Schneider family had launched a ten billion worth project called Love in a Fallen City to build a

grand hall that would accommodate ten thousand people.

Many were attracted by the fortune involved as the project was worth ten billion.

Suddenly, countless corporate players were eager to be part of the project, wanting a share of the

fortune involved.

The Schneider family's project worthy of ten billion stole the limelight and grabbed everyone's attention.

Rivermouth's corporate world, which had been stagnant for years, finally heated up.

As the Schneider family's procurement specialist, Emily was one of the few to know the details of the

project.

When she saw the address of the project, her eyes gleamed.

She recalled that the Hinton family had a plot of land near the project site.

Emily knew the Schneider family would offer a higher rate as compared to the market rate if they had

the intention to procure that plot of land.

She was tempted and wanted to procure the plot of land from the Hinton family beforehand so she

could sell it to the Schneider family.

The Hinton family don't pay attention to corporate news. I'm sure they have no idea the potential price

of that particular plot of land.

Emily was tempted and stopped hesitating. She made up her mind and got in touch with Adam.

Meanwhile, Adam and Jeremy were celebrating as they had managed to get their hands on the million

in exchange for the ten-hectare plot of land.

Adam was confused when he figured out the aim of Emily's visit.

“What the hell is going on today?”
