Chapter 57 I Will Listen to Zeke

Everyone was dumbfounded when they heard what Lily had said.

What the hell is going on?

Uncle Jeremy had spent so much effort to get his hands on the steel mill! Why did he decide to return it to us all of a sudden?

What exactly are they up to?

Lacey kept her guard up because she was afraid they might be up to no good. "Why have you guys decided to return it to us all of a sudden after what you guys did to get the steel mill?"

Lily replied, "We managed to gain a better understanding of the operation of the steel mill and realized that you're better suited to manage the mill."

A weight was lifted off Lacey's shoulders when she heard Lily's words.

She immediately agreed. "Alright, I'II..."

However, Zeke interrupted Lacey before she could finish her sentence. "If you want to return the steel mill to us, I'm afraid it won't be such an easy task."

"Have you forgotten what I told you guys back when we were at the steel mill? Get on your knees and beg us."

Lily went berserk all of a sudden. "Zeke, you better watch your mouth!"

"You should be grateful that we're returning the steel mill to you guys! Stop pushing your luck!"

"I will dismantle the steel mill instead of returning it to you guys if you keep pushing your luck!"

Zeke sneered, "If that's what you wish, by all means, please proceed."

Thump!

As soon as Zeke finished his sentence, he closed the door.

Lacey and her parents were anxious because of Zeke's action.

They're willing to return the steel mill to us, but Zeke doesn't seem to want it back! I can't afford to lose the steel mill!

Lacey scolded Zeke, "What the hell do you want?"

Zeke replied with a smile on his face, "Don't worry. I'm sure she will get on her knees today."

Thump! Thump! Thump!

Someone knocked on the door again.

Lacey answered the door once more.

Lily stopped putting on an arrogant front. "Lacey, please allow me to apologize for what my dad and I have done. We're the ones at fault."

"Can you please forget about the part where I have to kneel? After all, we're a family..."

"A family? Why didn't this particular concept crossed your mind back when you were there to take over the steel mill by force?" asked Zeke.

"I'll give you one last chance. Get on your knees, or we won't answer the door anymore."

Zeke closed the door again as soon as he finished his sentence.

Lily was anxious and stopped him immediately. She begged, "Lacey, p-please forgive me..."

Lacey couldn't make up her mind. She took a peek at Zeke and made up her mind. "I'll listen to Zeke's instructions."

Lily had a furious look on her face, but then recalled the fact that her father might be suffering behind bars as they spoke.

She clenched her teeth and got on her knees as instructed. "Lacey, please forgive us."

Zeke told her, "It doesn't work if you get on your knees here."

"Get your ass back to the steel mill and kneel on the circle I have drawn back them."

Lily could barely remain her composure. "Stop pushing your luck and challenging my limits!"

Zeke sneered. "This is your last chance. If you have decided to forsake it, I can't do anything about it either."

Thump!

Zeke closed the door again once more.

Lacey and her parents were anxious as they hesitated.

Should we believe Zeke?

They knew Lily wouldn't give in to their request because of how arrogant she was.

However, they couldn't make up their mind because of how determined Zeke seemed to be.

The enraged Lily, who was now shut out, kicked a pot of flower downstairs.

Damn it! Jerks!

No one has ever bullied me to such an extent!

Hell! Go to hell! Each and every one of you should suffer in hell!

Lily was on the verge of breaking down whenever she recalled the fact that her father was still behind bars.

She thought about it and decided to give in to Zeke's request for the time being.

"Fine! I'll put my dignity aside for today."

"I'll go get the cops to go after all of you tomorrow once you have taken over the steel mill."

"Hmph! I'll get two male inmates to give you a special service by then."

Lily made up her mind and knocked on the door once again. "Lacey, I'll do whatever you guys have requested immediately." "Please keep to your words and take over the steel mill tomorrow."

Zeke replied nonchalantly right when Lacey was about to open the door again. "I'll send someone to keep an eye on you." "Don't try anything silly. We will not honour our promise if you fail to kneel as requested."
