Chapter 1316

Connor nodded, “You can put it this way.”

“In this case, the Thisleton family leader should be Lacey.”

Huh?

Everyone was dumbfounded.

“Why don’t you get it after we make ourselves so clear to you already?”

“Clyde has contributed towards this achievement. What has it got to do with Lacey?”

“Is your brain damaged as well?”

Clyde waved his hand, signaling everyone to sit down.

“Zeke, what exactly do you mean? There is no use pestering us incessantly.”

“I’m only speaking the truth. Acquiring the Third Military Factory is Lacey’s contribution. It is only right for her to be the family leader.”

Huh?

Hahhahahaha!

Everyone burst out laughing.

“Mr. Black has made it clear that he wants to gift the military factory to me! It has nothing to do with Lacey Hinton! Mr. Black, am I correct?”

Connor nodded, “That’s right.”

Zeke shook his head, “No, you did not say this just now. You said that you would give the military factory to the King Class warrior as a congratulations gift.”

“The King Class warrior is my father, Ares. It has nothing to do with Lacey!”

“When has Eurasia announced to the world that Ares is the King Class warrior?”

“Although there is no official announcement yet, my father stands the highest chance. Wait, do you mean that you are the King Class warrior, and Mr. Black will gift the military factory to you?”

Zeke only smiled in return without saying a word.

Hahaha!

The laugher in the room rose to a deafening volume.

“You are disabled now and can’t even retain your title as the Great Marshal. How can you even dream of being the King Class warrior?”

“It’s obvious. His brain is damaged along with his body.”

“What is the use of arguing with him? Just drag him out. Don’t let him insult our intelligence.”

Clyde replied, “I will make you eat your words. Why don’t we decide on the leader after the grand ceremony? Zeke Williams, if my father, Ares, is crowned as the King Class warrior, I want you to kowtow to me publicly and break your arms yourself! Conversely, I will also kneel before you and stay away from you in the future.”

“Deal.”

With that, the celebration in the Thisleton family ended.

Zeke held Lacey’s hands, and they left the manor together.

Lacey chided, “Zeke, you don’t need to bluff and bet with him to save me from embarrassment. The chances of you losing is too high. Although you are injured, you are still the Great Marshal. How can you kowtow to Clyde Thisleton? Furthermore, I’m not interested in the position of the Thisleton family’s leader.”

Zeke was dumbfounded.

I’m only speaking the truth. I’m not bluffing.

Shaking her head, Lacey continued, “Forget it, let’s go home now. At most, I will plead with Ares to let you go when the time comes. I will not allow you to kowtow to him. Oh yes, I wonder if Missy and my parents are injured.”

Injured?

A deep crease formed between Zeke’s brows. “Lacey, why will they be injured for no reason?”

Lacey recounted how Connor had threatened to kill her family.

Zeke clenched his fists tightly upon hearing Lacey’s words.

“Connor Black, you asshole. You must have had a death wish! I will get rid of you even if you have nothing to do with the murder of the Devonville troops!”
