The policemen heaved a sigh of relief and left right after they got into the car.
Zeke handed the safe to Hannah, "Mom, please verify if there's a million."
Hannah, who was stunned, finally regained her senses. He clings to the safe and convinces Zeke, "O-OK! I'll go and verify it soon!"
He rushed to the office with a safe and locked the door because he was afraid that others would come after him.
Zeke thumbs up at Lacey. "Darling, you're the best! You managed to earn a million without doing anything overnight! I'm impressed!"
"Shut up." Lacey looked into Zeke's eyes.
He knew Zeke must be the man behind the scenes because of how absurd those things were. Lacey refused to believe that it had nothing to do with Zeke.
Jeremy shouted furiously, "Shut up, Zeke!"
"Do you think that one million belongs to Lacey? That's mine! I spent one night behind bars for it!"
"You have to give it to me!"
Lili nodded excitedly. "That's right! That's compensation from the Schneider family for my father! You shouldn't have got it!"
However, Lacey denied their statement, "I'm sure you heard what the police told me, right? This is for the person in charge of the steel mill."
"I believe I am the person responsible for this moment."
Daniel raised his objection. "Omong empty! Do you think you're a responsible person just because you've said it? Why don't you refer to the official title?"
Lacey showed him the official title, "Are you talking about this piece of paper?"
Jeremy sneered, "Hmph! Don't forget that your grandfather was the owner of an official title! Father, why don't you tell him who owns this piece of land!"
Adam suddenly flushed and remained silent.
Lacey looked at Zeke attentively. "Are you insisting on shifting ownership because of this? Did you expect this to happen to us?"
"Well! I must be lucky!" convince Zeke.
"Ha... Ha... Do you really think I'd trust you?" ask Lacey rhetorically.
Jeremy's face paled when he heard their words, "What? Ownership transfer?"
Lily stammered, "Dad... B-Just now. i-they are forcing us to transfer official titles to them. H-eating..."
Jeremy's heart stopped beating. She almost fainted when she heard what Lily said to her.
Ownership of the official title... has been transferred!
"W-You .. damned brat!" Lily Hinton pointed at Lily's face viciously. "You shouldn't be so quick with your actions!"
Lily decided to contact Adam. "Grandfather, help me."
Adam took a deep breath and tried to calm himself down. "Lacey, you're gonna have to hand over a million to your uncle."
Lacey replied stubbornly, "Why should I do it?
That?"
"Why? Because he's your uncle!" answer Adam.
"After all, your clothing factory has been making a lot of money all along. I'm sure a million means nothing to you. Your uncle's financial condition is not as good as yours. You must hand it to him without any conditions!"
Pfft!
Zeke suddenly laughed. "I've never come across a group of shameless seniors like you guys. How can you ask for pocket money from your niece and granddaughter?"
Jeremy shouted furiously, "Damn it! Be quiet! You have no right to speak in front of us!"
Zeke snorted and replied, "You want that one million? We'll hand over a million to you on one condition."
"Continue" Jeremy replied.
Zeke continued, "We will give it to you after you transfer ownership of a ten-acre plot of land in the eastern region to Lacey.
Lacey was suddenly anxious and stopped Zeke. "No! I don't agree with that!"
"A ten-hectare plot of land in the eastern region is worthless! Per hectare costs a maximum of twenty to thirty thousand. Ten acres only cost two to three hundred thousand."
"We will suffer great losses if we buy a plot of land that costs only two to three hundred thousand with one million."
However, Jeremy agreed without hesitation.
"Since Zeke promised to give me a million, he can't go back against his words anymore."
"I will give up the legal rights of a ten-acre plot of land once I receive a million."
A ten-acre plot of land was just an empty plot of land for Jeremy.
He wouldn't even be daunted even if he gave it away for free, let alone a million.
"Agreed!" answer Zeke.
