“Ha, hahaa, hahhahhaha!”
“Zeke Williams! Are you just trying to prove that your existence? You’re only humiliating yourself by exaggerating
things!”
“A grown man going around doing nothing all day except bluffing your way through everything? Ha!”
“We’re talking business right now, and you’re nothing but a useless man dependent on your woman. So keep your
mouth shut, and don’t disturb us.”
Zeke Williams was left speechless after being laughed at by Nancy.
Oh no! Look at the fiery temper of mine! Why do I suddenly have the very strong urge to slap her across the face?
But Nancy is Lacey’s cousin and a good friend so I shouldn’t hit her. Forget it!
I shouldn’t hit her!
Zeke pressed his anger down and turned to Daniel Hinton. “Dad, who’s in charge of the Pharmaceutical
Department in our company right now?”
“Susan Raynor and I are overseeing it,” answered Daniel.
Zeke nodded and handed Reagan Pharmaceutical’s transferal agreement to Daniel. “Dad, it looks like you and
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSusan will have to work overtime in the upcoming days. Let’s merge Reagan Pharmaceutical into Linton Group.”
Daniel froze. “What’s this?”
He took the agreement and gave it a quick look. He became emotional and quickly read it over again carefully.
After a while, he looked up as he was shaking with excitement. “Zeke! You... you really did it?”
“Oh my goodness! You were being serious earlier! Wow! Zeke, we were the ones who were dumb for looking down
on you.”
“This is amazing! You’re amazing!”
Nancy and Lacey gave each other a look. What nonsense is he rambling on about?
Lacey grabbed the agreement and studied it alongside Nancy.
A few moments later, Nancy exclaimed slack-jawed, “This... Is this the transferal agreement for Reagan
Pharmaceutical?”
“How is this possible?”
“This is fake. This has to be fake. This useless man has always been great at faking things.”
Her face was nearly plastered to the agreement, trying to find some kind of evidence to prove that it was fake.
Lacey looked at Zeke with shining bright eyes. “Zeke, is this agreement real?”
Zeke nodded. “Of course. I’ve been with you this whole time. Where would I have the time to go and draft a fake
agreement?”
Daniel nodded in agreement. “The Zeke I know wouldn’t go make something like this up just to save face.”
“Zeke, how did you seal the deal with Reagan Pharmaceutical?”
Zeke shrugged. “Well, it’s nothing really.”
“Their major shareholder was originally Logan Hugh. When he planned to set Lacey up, I managed to see through
his schemes, then conveniently got myself some dirt on him.”
“So in order to save his own skin, he gave Reagan Pharmaceutical to us.”
Daniel and Hannah immediately became worried. “Logan was going to set Lacey up again? Lacey, are you okay?”
“Don’t worry, Mom and Dad. As long as I’m with Lacey, she’ll be fine,” comforted Zeke.
“Plus, Logan’s schemes have all be uncovered, and he’s been caught. He’ll never be able to hurt Lacey again.”
The elderly couple finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Lacey gave a buzzed chortle. “Zeke, I suddenly realized a pattern.”
“Those who mess with me will usually have their assets end up in my hands eventually.”
“First, there was Jackson Hamilton’s Hamilton Construction, then the recent Whiteridge project, and now even
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmReagan Pharmaceutical.”
“My goodness! Now I kind of want the whole world to come and mess with me! That way, the whole world will end
up in my hands!”
Again Zeke Williams was speechless.
Zeke tapped Lacey’s forehead exasperatedly. “You and your love for money! If that really happened, I would
probably die first from worrying about you so much.”
Plus, if you wanted, I could just wave my hands and the whole of Eurasia would be yours. No messing with you is
needed at all.
Nancy looked through the agreement over and over again but couldn’t find even one flaw on it.
To say her emotions right then were complicated was an understatement.
On one hand, she was glad because the boss of Reagan Pharmaceutical was now someone she knew well, so she
would be able to seal any deal easily.
On the other hand, she couldn’t stomach after knowing that the person who got Reagan Pharmaceutical was the
very man she had always looked down on.
Nancy gathered her thoughts and turned to Zeke. “Zeke, since you’re now the new boss of Reagan Pharmaceutical,
let’s strike while the iron’s hot and sign the contract tonight.”
“With us working together, we’ll definitely carve an unassailable path in the pharmaceutical field.”
