Chapter 690

Zeke had a faint smile on his face.

That’s right. Your husband is the famous Master Williams. Look at me in admiration now!

Lacey continued, “Are you a relative of Master Williams? Did you know that Master Williams was going to go against Barnaby?”

Zeke was speechless upon hearing her words.

What kind of logic is this?

It’s already so obvious, but your guess is still wrong.

It was not that Lacey could not make the right guess; it was that she did not dare to assume.

Master Williams was a top master. He had crippled Barnaby in one move.

Although Zeke was capable, his capability was not enough to be placed on equal ranks with the masters. At most, he could go against lesser martial artists like Morgan. If he went against a master, it was unlikely that he would be able to even defend himself.

Moreover, Master Williams was the top master.

Lacey asked again, “Zeke, are you a relative of Master Williams?”

Zeke shook his head. “No. I’m Master Williams.”

Lacey sighed in disappointment, “If only you were Master Williams’ relative. The attack this time is targeting the Linton Group. The partnership between Master Williams and Eclipse to deal with the attack is essentially helping the Linton Group. It would only be appropriate if we thank them personally with gifts. What a pity that you’re not his relative. We won’t be able to contact him and give him our thanks.”

Zeke was at a loss for words.

Did you only hear my first sentence? Did you not hear me telling you that I’m Master Williams?

Lacey continued, “It’s fine. I’ve already sent Sharon from Nutel Entertainment to look for Master Williams’ contact. I’m sure Ms. Edward won’t disappoint me. Let’s talk about this another time. I need to meet an important client now.”

Zeke tensed up.

“Is that client male or female?”

Lacey giggled mischievously. “A guy. He’s tall and handsome. He’s even polite. Why do you ask?”

Zeke’s mood turned sour.

Lacey giggled louder. “Zeke, are you jealous? This is hilarious. Don’t worry. I only have you in my eyes.

If you’re worried, you can come with me.”

Zeke mumbled, “What are you talking about? I’m not jealous. I’m just worried that you’re going out by yourself. Since you’ve invited me so sincerely, it’ll be bad for me not to take up on your invitation. Let’s go. I’ll come with you.”

“Hm.” Lacey had a look of disdain.

“How pretentious.”

Soon, they reached their destination—Grand Millennium Hotel.

The client had not arrived yet, so the two ordered some drinks and leaned back on the sofa.

Before their drinks were finished, someone knocked on the door.

Lacey called out, “Come in!”

Lacey called out, “Come in!”

The door was pushed open. A bespectacled, polite-looking man in a suit walked in.

“May I ask if you’re Ms. Hinton from the Linton Group?” The man asked.

Lacey stood up immediately and greeted with a smile, ”Hello, I’m Lacey Hinton from the Linton Group.

Are you Franklin Jackman?”

The man flashed her a smile.

“That’s right. Ms. Hinton, we meet again.”

Lacey was surprised.

“Are you the salesperson sent by Grand Empire Group?”

Franklin laughed, “Your guess is right, Ms. Hinton. I’m the business manager of Grand Empire Group.

Actually, the collaboration between Grand Empire Group and Linton Group this time is my doing.”

“Really?” Lacey lifted her brows.

“Thank you, then, Mr. Jackman.”

Franklin sat down beside Lacey with a look of adoration.

“Lacey, did you know that I left Oakheart City to go to Eastend after you rejected my confession? I swore back then that I have to become an impressive man. Only then am I a match for you. Now, I’m the executive for Grand Empire Group. I only have one superior, and I have thousands working under me. In Eastend, I’m quite a distinguished figure. Lacey, I’m not like who I was back then. I hope you can give me another chance. I’m sure my achievements will make you interested in me.”

Locey colled out, “Come in!”

The door wos pushed open. A bespectocled, polite-looking mon in o suit wolked in.

“Moy I osk if you’re Ms. Hinton from the Linton Group?” The mon osked.

Locey stood up immediotely ond greeted with o smile, ”Hello, I’m Locey Hinton from the Linton Group.

The mon floshed her o smile.

“Thot’s right. Ms. Hinton, we meet ogoin.”

Locey wos surprised.

“Are you the solesperson sent by Grond Empire Group?”

Fronklin loughed, “Your guess is right, Ms. Hinton. I’m the business monoger of Grond Empire Group.

Actuolly, the colloborotion between Grond Empire Group ond Linton Group this time is my doing.”

“Reolly?” Locey lifted her brows.

“Thonk you, then, Mr. Jockmon.”

Fronklin sot down beside Locey with o look of odorotion.
