Great Marshal: Marrying the Bridesmaid novel Chapter 59

Lacey felt abhorred all of a sudden when she recalled what Jeremy and his family had done back in the day.

Finally, she stopped urging Zeke and ignored the call from Lily because she knew what the call was about.

Zeke wiped his mouth after he finished his meal and asked Daniel and Hannah, “Dad, mom, do you guys want to tag along?”

“I believe grandpa will show up at the steel mill too.”

“He owes you guys an apology. I believe it's time for him to apologize for what he's done.”

Daniel was hesitating while Hannah immediately took upon Zeke's invitation, “Yes! Of course!”

“That old geezer used to look down on us because of how useless Daniel used to be!”

“I'm sure he'll stop looking down on us since he's the one who has a favour to ask from our exceptional son-in-law!”

“Let's go!”

The family of four made their way downstairs together.

They ran into the head of security of their residential area the moment they got downstairs.

Mr. Zachary greeted Daniel enthusiastically and offered him a cigarette, something he had never done before.

Daniel was proud of himself because his life had never been the same ever since he acknowledged Zeke as his son-in-law.

He could finally hold his head high ever since then.

Soon, they reached the steel mill and saw Lily.

Lily was pale and haggard.

She rushed over when she saw Lacey. “Lacey, this is the legal title! Please take it...”

Zeke stopped Lacey and asked, “Where is grandpa? I told you to get grandpa over. I want him to hand the legal title over to us instead.”

“Grandpa is on his way! He'll be here soon!” assured Lily.

“We'll talk once he gets here. Dad, mom, Lacey, let's wait for him in the office,” said Zeke.

“Alright.” They made their way into the office.

Lily gritted her teeth because of how irritated she was.

Fine! I'll let you guys get full of yourselves for the time being!

Once you guys take over the steel mill, I'll get the cops to arrest each and every one of you!

Soon, Adam Hinton reached the steel mill as well.

He was engulfed by wrath.

Actually, he knew his eldest son, Jeremy Hinton, was arrested by the cops.

He was aware that Lily was trying to return the steel mill to Lacey because she wanted her to take Jeremy's place behind bars instead.

Adam didn't blame Lily at all. Instead, he held a grudge against Lacey and her family.

He blamed Lacey for producing steels that failed to meet the requirements stated and deemed her the reason behind Jeremy's arrest.

Hence, he wanted Lacey to take Jeremy's place behind bars as well.

However, he was forced to be there to deliver the legal title to them on his own.

Although Adam was one of the masterminds behind the hostile takeover of the steel mill, he showed no signs of remorse.

Lily rushed over to usher Adam in an aggrieved expression and tone. “Grandpa, you're finally here.”

“Uncle Daniel went overboard! He insulted me and scolded you! He said you're a senile and biased geezer who has always sided with our family.”

Adam had a gloomy expression on his face all of a sudden. “Hmph! He must have lost his mind to utter such unfilial words against me!”

“Why did I ever give birth to such an unfilial child!”

“Hurry up! Go get them out! I will settle scores with them today!”

Lily nodded and rushed towards the office to get Daniel and his family.

“Dad, you're here,” greeted Daniel respectfully.

Adam replied nonchalantly, “Daniel, it seems like you've finally learnt how to spread your wings, huh?”

“You unfilial son, how dare you order me to deliver the legal title to you?”

Daniel remained silent when he heard his father's words.

Hannah was irritated and talked back against Adam, “Dad, you handed it over to Jeremy previously, but you decided to return it to us out of the blue. We have to verify what's going on, right?”

Adam cast a stern gaze at Hannah. “I'm talking to my son! Who the hell do you think you are to have the rights to interrupt our conversation?”

Hannah stuttered due to anger.

It had been years since she got married to Daniel, yet she had never been acknowledged as part of the Hinton family.

Adam Hinton showed them no mercy.

Suddenly, Zeke broke the silence. “Grandpa, I believe you know where Uncle Jeremy currently is, right? I believe you know what's about to happen once you hand over the legal title to us, right?”

Adam rolled his eyes. “Shut up! I don't have time for you!”

“Lacey, I'm here now. Come over and take the legal title.”
