Great Marshals
Chapter 11

Lacey gets a call from her parents on the way to the party.

"I don't think we should have invited Zeke to the party" Daniel said.

"What's the reason?" ask Lacey confused.

"I mean, look at Jeremy's son-in-law. He's the section chief at the Bureau of Industry and Commercial," Daniel sighed. "Zeke was just a small office worker. Frankly, he is a leech in our family. Our relatives will make fun of him."

"But Uncle Jeremy insisted that Zeke join us. Wouldn't he be mad if Zeke didn't show up?" ask Lacey.

Daniel was silent for a few seconds. "alright. Let him join us then. We have to listen to Jeremy's request."

After hanging up the phone, Lacey turned to look at Zeke.

Lacey suddenly did not want Zeke to join the party anymore.

If she compares herself to Jeremy's daughter, Lily Hinton, they are very different.

Lily will definitely show her husband the sexy head at the party.

The only reason Jeremy invited Zeke was to make fun of Lacey.

Thinking about it made Lacey's head hurt.

He turned to look at Zeke who was sleeping soundly in the passenger seat and sighed, "You're really useless ..."

The two of them arrived at the Royal Hotel not long after.

One of the luxurious dining rooms was already filled with people.

Jeremy not only invited Lacey and her family, but also all the other relatives.

The party was as big as the wedding.

Both Lily and her husband, Skye Hans, became the focus of the party.

All the relatives were busy congratulating Jeremy. None of them noticed when Lacey and Zeke came in.

"Skye, you're amazing. I can't believe you've been a sexy head at such a young age."

"Lily really found herself a great husband. They fit perfectly!"

"Hans, please take care of my son after he graduates, okay?"

Lily Hinton was proud when her relatives praised her husband, while Skye pretended to be humble.

Lacey heaved a sigh of relief when she realized that none of her relatives were paying attention to her.

However, she felt relieved too quickly, as Lily noticed them. "Lacy! Welcome then. So, what's your husband's job?"

As Lily opened her mouth, everyone turned their attention towards Lacey and Zeke.

"D-he works in my factory..." Lacey stammered.

"He works for you? So, he's basically living off you?" Lily was half joking.

The crowd exploded in laughter, making Lacey ashamed.

"Hey, I was just kidding. Don't be mad at me, okay?" Lily finally said as the laughter subsided. "But, his future would be ruined if he continued to work in the factory. Skye, why don't you give him a job?"

"That's gonna be hard," Skye laughed wryly. "Sound he's an ex-convict?"

"Really! How can I forget Zeke who has been locked up for five years!" exclaim Lili.

That statement caught everyone's attention.

They can't believe Lacey's boyfriend used to be a prisoner.

If they compare Lily and Lacey, they are like heaven and earth.

Although the relatives did not say anything, their gazes were enough to kill one's soul.

They wondered what sins they had committed in past lives so their daughter found such trash.

Daniel would've kicked Zeke out if it wasn't for the crowd still staring at them.

As for the fact that Zeke had helped him secure his position, Daniel completely forgot about it.

Jeremy, who had remained silent the entire time, suddenly spoke. "Talent wasn't the only reason Hans got his position. He also got help."

"Help? Doesn't it take someone high up in the hierarchy to designate a position like Hans?" one of the relatives asked.

"That's Jackson from the Hamilton family," said Jeremy proudly. "From what I know, Skye and Jackson are back."

The revelation surprised many.

"You mean one of the four big families in Oakheart City, Hamilton? Holy hooch! Hans must know a lot of people!"

"He wouldn't have to worry about his future if he knew someone like that!"

"I also heard that the Hamilton family had received an invitation from the Grand Marshal! Hans! Can you ask the Hamilton family if they can secure a guard position at the Grand Ceremony? Heck, even a cleaner position can!"

All the relatives were satisfied with Skye Hans.

"Also, Jackson Hamilton was interested in Lacey, but he chose the ex-con" Jeremy continued. "Seriously, did his parents not teach you anything? He just humiliated the entire Hinton family!"

The crowd could not believe their ears. Lacey has chosen a former prisoner, not a billionaire.

"This is my personal business! You have no right to tell me what to do!" scream Lacey.

"of course! I'm your uncle!" jeremy scolding. "How can you compare that useless nonsense with Jackson? Does he know someone in the Bureau of Industry and Commercial? Can she get a sexy head position like Skye? Heck, can he get an invitation to the Grand Ceremony? Whaddya think? others will see Hans if they find out he has an ex-con as a relative?"

Lacey's eyes are red. He could not believe he had to suffer such shame from his relatives.

Zeke took out a cigarette and lit it with a smile.

If these people knew who I really was, they would have urinated on their pants right away.

There was only one reason why the Grand Marshal would smoke. That means he's very angry.

When the Grand Marshal is angry, blood will spill.

At the same time, Liam George, director of the Bureau of Industry and Commercial, entered the hotel with a group of people for dinner.

They were told that the largest private dining room had been booked.

Just when Liam was about to go somewhere else, his assistant, a fat man, suggested, "Sir, why don't we go and see if they'll be finished? It's late enough for us to go there somewhere else."

Liam thought about it and nodded. "OK, go."

The assistant nodded and ran towards the dining room where Lacey and her relatives were.

Bang out!

The door opened as the assistant barged into the room.

"Hey! You lot! Go quickly! I'll take this room!"

"Who are you?" Jeremy got up from his chair and scolded.

"Don't you dare curse me! I'm from the Bureau of Industry and Commercial! Go, or all of you I'll catch!" The assistant laughed.

"Buro? Do you know who my daughter-in-law is? He's your new sexy head!" Jeremy challenged.

But, instead of being afraid, the fat man even smiled hysterically.

He observed the crowd and finally looked at Skye.

"so. So, Mr Hans is here too! Is this how you treat people who promote you?" The assistant scolded.

After realizing who the fat man was, Skye's face paled.
