Great Marshals

Great Marshals
Chapter 2


He didn't expect Zeke to get down on his knees, proposing to Lacey, "Lacey, will you get married?


Me?"


Whahuh?


Everyone in the room was shocked. Their faces were filled with disbelief.


Zeke Williams had just dumped her bride on their wedding day and was instead proposing to the bridesmaid!


And it was in that situation that the bride received an invitation card from the Grand Marshal!


That doesn't make any sense!


Lacey hesitated for a moment, thinking she had misheard.


"Lacey," said Zeke sincerely again. "Married to me. I promise you with the dignity of a man that I will make you the happiest woman in the world, with the glory and wealth of a lifetime."


Emily's going crazy. "Zeke, motherfucker! I might forgive you if you kneel before me and apologize now. Don't forget, you've been in prison for five years. You should thank the gods because I am willing to give you this opportunity. "


"I'm sorry!" Zeke roaring.


The five-year detention had burned his heart. With that in mind, Emily clearly sprinkled salt on her wound without hesitation hurting her pride.


"F!" Emily gritted her teeth. "We're done! Just wait after I attend the Grand Comeback Ceremony!"


In his heart, Zeke was just a simp who was only worthy of handing himself over to him.


Who is he to scold him?


Lacey's eyelids were hooded, looking thoughtful.


He thought about his marriage contract and his perverted fiancee.


A moment later, he looked up and took a flower from his hand.


In a stern tone, he replied, "Yes!"


Zeke heaved a sigh of relief, while the Clemon family exploded in anger.


"You b***h! You shameless whore! I'm gonna kill you,"


The slap!


A slap sounded.


It was Zeke who slapped Emily.


Lacey's heart was pounding.


She is well aware of how well Zeke treated Emily in the past.


And saw her slap Emily because of her ...


Suddenly, another idea came to his mind.


Emily huddled to the floor in a fainting state.


this Simp just hit me for another woman! Who is he to slap me?


"From now on, Lacey is my wife" Zeke announced. "If anyone bullies him, I will kill their entire family! And if that's not enough, I'll dig their ancestral graves!"


After quietly enduring the pain for five years, the God of War finally broke out.


His tone of voice killed, keeping the Clemons family on their guard as they held their breaths.


Emily suddenly gets an illusion.


This man was not the same man he had known for five years!


"Let's go, Lacey." Zeke gently grabbed her hand.


"Lacey Hinton" said Emily with gritted teeth. "I challenge you to get out of this door! Don't forget, you're just a living parasite of my family. Believe it or not, I can bankrupt your family now."


In confusion, Lacey stopped her steps.


She knew Emily had the power to do it.


Especially now that he had received the invitation card.


"Lacey, let's go" Zeke comforted him. "Even if the sky collapses, I'll hold it for you."


Lacey's heart pounded again as they exited the study.


Emily let out a heart-wrenching roar, "The prostitute and the prostitute. What a perfect couple! I'll make you two kneel in front of me and beg me like a dog right away."


Outside, guests look forward to the newlyweds' appearance.


However, when the door opens, it is not the two brides that come out, but the groom and bridesmaid.


Everyone present was astonished, their eyes and mouths agape in disbelief.


A plot usually seen on TV takes place in reality.


The masses could not take it for a moment.


Coincidentally, there were also quite a few media reporters in the wedding hall.


After that, this latest news took over the entire Oakheart City in just a few hours.


The groom has dumped the bride on the wedding day and married the bridesmaid instead, even when the bride has received an invitation from the Grand Marshal himself.


The groom has made the most stupid move in the world!


Zeke went with Lacey.


In the middle of the road, Lacey suddenly said, "Stop, let me down."


Zeke's forehead wrinkled. "What's wrong?"


"It was just an act to save your self-esteem that you proposed to me, wasn't it?" answer Lacey. "Now that the show is over, I have to go home."


"Lacey, I sincerely ask you to marry me," Zeke said solemnly. "You think I'm the kind of person who plays around with feelings just because of pathetic arrogance?"


Lacey fell silent.


He understands Zeke well and knows that he is most likely not acting.


"Are you not going to regret this?" Lacey's eyebrows drooped. "Emily got the invitation of the Grand Marshal and her family would come forward. This is your chance to climb the social ladder."


"If I want the invitation card, I just need to say the words" Zeke laughed. "Since they are so proud of it, I will make them servants at the Great Ceremony."


Lacey let out a breath. "This is not the time for you to brag."


"i'm serious. Would you like to attend the Grand Comeback Ceremony? I can take you there" said Zeke.


Lacey didn't want to hear any more of her bullshit, so she changed the subject, "Also, I'm engaged to Jackson from the Hamilton family..."


"Everyone in Oakheart City knows that Jackson is a drug addict and pervert. The number of girls he plays can't be counted on one hand" Zeke said


"I know you don't want to marry her. You have no choice but to agree to this marriage because of your family. Just tell me and I'll save you from the fire pit."


Lacey smiled bitterly. "The Hamilton family had a vast business empire. Aren't you worried that Jackson will take revenge on you?"


Zeke suddenly laughed. "I've been ready to fight against the world ever since you said 'i'm willing'."


Lacey's head flinched, looking dazed.


The man had made his heart pound once more.


He purely wanted to use Zeke as a shield at first, but now, his principles were slightly shaken.


The Hamilton family governed both sides of the law. Ordinary people like Zeke were not rivals to them, be it power or wealth.


How could he fight them?


Can a momentary passion survive the cruelty of reality?


The Hamilton family might eventually destroy him.


"Let's go home first." Lacey looked melancholy. "We'll talk about it later after you've passed my parents."


For a while, he felt a bit confused.


Lacey's house was very crowded that day.


Early next month, she will marry into a wealthy, Hamiltonian family. His uncles Jeremy Hinton and Scott Hinton came to his house to congratulate him and give him a prize money.


"Daniel, the Hinton family is truly blessed because Lacey married into the Hamilton family."


"The Hamilton family is one of four major families in Oakheart City. Whatever came out of their fingers was enough to feed and clothe the Hinton family."


"Who knows if the Hinton family can take this opportunity to become a second-tier family."


Lacey's parents, Daniel Hinton and Hannah Lawson sat in the host's chair, their faces shining


The adulation of the crowd made the old couple feel proud.


"It seems you two don't know. The Hamilton family actually got an invitation from the Great Marshal" Daniel said. "At that time, the strength of the Hamilton family would definitely increase. It was very possible for them to become a first-rate family, let alone a second-rate family!"


Whahuh? Invitation card from Great Marshal?


The sound of the appeal filled the room, the atmosphere reached *******.


"Daniel," said Jeremy. "I heard you recently ran for Head of Department at the hospital. How are you doing now?"


"Based on my qualifications, there is basically no hope of running for Head of Department" Daniel replied. "But my son-in-law, Jackson, said he would help me. This position will be a strong guarantee after the Hamilton family mediates."


His words were filled with admiration and satisfaction for his future son-in-law, Jackson Hamilton.


And the crowd followed, praising the man.


"Damn it, Lacey's in trouble!" Scott suddenly jumped to his feet, exclaiming with the phone in his hand.


Daniel's heart was racing. "Whatis that? Show me quickly."


He snatched the phone to see the news displayed on the screen.


"On the wedding day, Zeke Williams threw away her bride and proposed to bridesmaid Lacey Hinton instead..."


Instantly, Daniel had a heart attack and he spewed out a mouthful of blood, collapsing on the sofa.


"That bastard... Damnit... Goddamnit!"


The Hinton family panicked. "Hurry up, send him to the hospital. He's having a heart attack."
