The force of the slap was so strong that it knocked Lacey to the ground.
Lacey’s head buzzed. At that moment, she felt the sky spinning and the earth beneath her move. Right then, blood oozed from the corners of her mouth.
She glared at Michael in fury while cursing him, “Michael, you scoundrel!”
Aren’t we family? No, even enemies would not go to such an extent!
However, Michael replied triumphantly, “Go ahead, swear and curse. The day will come when you realize that what we do is for your own good.”
Within two minutes, the staff had done their job, and they said respectfully, “Mr. Jones and Ms. Hinton, please stand in front of the camera to have your picture taken.”
“Once we upload the photos, the case is complete, and you are formally a married couple.”
Henry looked at Lacey lustfully and said, “Lacey, come here and let’s take a photo together.”
Lacey instantly retreated, grabbed a pile of papers and threw them at Henry, yelling, “Go away, and get out of my sight.”
“I will never marry you!”
“I’m Zeke’s woman, and no one can take me away. You stay away from me.”
Henry sneered, “Zeke? Oh, you’d better forget about him. I presume he’s just a pile of ashes now.”
For a moment, Lacey was stumped. Then she asked, “What do you mean?”
Henry replied, “Don’t tell me you are still in the dark.”
“Zeke has accepted the challenge to a duel with Mr. Quin of Eastend. They will duel to the death.
“Zeke has accepted the challenge to a duel with Mr. Quin of Eastend. They will duel to the death.
“Mr. Quin is the second master in Eurasia, and his power is above that of Master Williams.
“Do you think your useless husband can measure up to Mr. Quin!”
What?
Lacey’s whole body shook.
Zeke and Mr. Quin will fight a duel to the death!
Although she did not know how powerful Mr. Quin was, Henry had clearly said that Mr. Quin was more powerful than Master Williams! novelbin
Thus, no matter how skillful Zeke was, he could not possibly be a match for Mr. Quin.
Lacey was close to an emotional collapse as she said frantically, “I... I’m going to look for him.”
“Even in death, I must be with him.”
“Darn,” Henry was furious, “What kind of love potion did Williams give you that made you crazy enough to die with him?”
“Today, you will marry me, and you are not going anywhere.”
With that, he caught Lacey by her hair and pulled her towards him, “Pose for a photo with me!”
“Go away.” Lacey refused to pose and struggled furiously to get away.
Her scalp was injured by the pull on her hair and started to bleed. The pain seared through her heart...
At this point, Hadley arrived, almost too late!
The scene that greeted her eyes filled her heart with the flame of fury, “Damn, how dare you touch my girl? You have a death wish.”
In an instant, she rushed forward, and her punch landed on Henry’s eye.
Henry gave out a terrible cry, let go of Lacey, and fell to the ground.
Hadley looked at Lacey with distress, “Lacey, are you alright?”
“Hadley, please tell me the truth. Is Zeke fighting a duel to the death with Mr. Quin?” Lacey asked in a rush.
Her sudden question made Hadley quiet.
She was afraid to tell the truth as she did not want Lacey to worry.
In fact, she was not sure, now, whether the Leader’s plan would work and whether Zeke would survive.
When Hadley refused to reply, Lacey knew that what they said was true.
Immediately, she wanted to run outside, “I’m going to look for him, and I want to die together with him!”
“Damn, you are not going anywhere.” Henry covered his eye and roared, “Guys, catch this woman and thrash her.”
“Today, I will show you what price you will pay for assaulting me.”
Ten bodyguards obeyed the order and rushed towards Hadley at once.
Hadley quickly pushed Lacey behind her away from danger. With swift and skillful moves, she took out a dagger from her waist and attacked the group.
