Lacey sighed. “Nancy, please stop. I won’t break up with him even if I lose Linton Group.”
“Why?” Nancy exclaimed in confusion. “Did he drug you or something? Why are you so attached to him?”
“Let me ask you a question. Are you willing to drop everything just to be with your savior right now?” Lacey asked.
“Of course!” Nancy replied without much thought.
“That’s what I thought,” Lacey said, satisfied.
“Rubbish! He can’t compare to my savior!” Nancy exclaimed.
“Even if I gave up everything that I had, my savior would be able to give me much more...”
“Well, I believe that even if I lost Linton Group, Zeke will be able to rebuild one for me, or maybe even more,” Lacey said.
Nancy sighed in exasperation. “Looks like I’ve lost you...”
“I’m not going to let that ba****d live on this planet any longer! He ruined my little sister, for goodness’ sake!”
Lacey smirked all of a sudden. “Are you sure?”
“What if Zeke is your savior?”
“Lacey! Stop insulting me!” Nancy protested.
“Ew... just, ew.”
Beside her, Lacey simply chuckled.
Soon, the Hinton family arrived at the entrance of the Hilton Hotel.
The entrance was swarming with people, and most of them came from prominent backgrounds or rich families.
Just like Aaron and his family, they had come to show off their riches so that they could get a chance to meet the mysterious person who took down the underworld forces.
To their disappointment, however, a private celebration feast was going on in the hotel, one in which the mysterious person would be taking part as well.
No one was to enter the premises before the mysterious person’s arrival.
Left with no choice, the crowd resorted to waiting outside, craning their necks to take a peek at the
mysterious guest.
Aaron turned to Michael and whispered, “I thought you knew someone who’s a security guard here?”
“Can you ask him if we can get a free pass?”
“Think about the boost to our reputation if we managed to get in before everyone else!”
Michael nodded and said, “I’ll try.”
He then took out his phone and dialed a number.
“Hey, Marcel! Are you busy now?”
“What do you want?” a gruff voice asked, obviously annoyed.
“You see... We’ve already reserved a private room for our banquet last night, so can we...”
“No. I can’t let anyone in until my boss comes,” Marcel said flatly.
“If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up now.”
“Wait!” Michael pleaded. “Marcel, can’t you humor me for once? Money isn’t an issue here.”
The mention of money made the security guard’s resolve crumbled.
He pondered over it for a moment and said, “I’ll check with my superiors. Hold on.”
“Thanks, Marcel!” Michael said happily.
After he hung up, Michael turned to Aaron and said, “Great news, Grandpa! Marcel agreed to help us out.”
“If everything goes well, we can get in before everyone else.”
Aaron broke out in a grin. “Well done, Michael. Looks like I did the right thing by investing in you.”
In the meantime, Zeke knew that the people in the hotel were waiting for his arrival.
“Let’s go, Lacey,” he said, tugging at Lacey’s arm.
She grabbed him before he could take a step forward. “We can’t go in just yet. Marcel hasn’t given us the green light.”
But Zeke merely snickered. “They would be standing out here all day if I don’t go in.”
