Great Marshal: Marrying the Bridesmaid
Chapter 76

Dawn nodded her head, feeling a little disappointed.

Zeke's money actually belongs to Lacey and her family, whereas his power was borrowed by chance. So he isn't as awesome as I thought... He's only slightly more powerful than ordinary people due to Lacey's family.

It was getting late, so Daniel and his wife went to bed after chatting with Dawn for a while.

Meanwhile, Lacey led Dawn to her room to sleep.

Dawn whispered, "Perhaps I should sleep on the sofa."

"You're my guest. How can I let you sleep on the sofa?" Lacey refused. "Let Zeke sleep on the sofa tonight. Loggerhead, you need to think about what you've done today."

Zeke put on an innocent face. "What did I do? What's there to think about?"

Lacey glanced at her parents' bedroom. "They're my parents, not yours, okay?"

It dawned on Zeke that Lacey was blaming him for competing for her parents' attention and was feeling jealous.

But I can't help it if they insist on being so good to me.

Dawn left early the next morning.

Since the Polk, where she used to work, had been shut down, she had to replace another job.

Although Lacey proposed for Dawn to work at her steel mill, the latter had declined.

She was a PhD graduate after all. She planned to work for two years to gain some experience before she set up a technology company.

Otherwise, it would be a waste of her academic qualifications.

Lacey and her family were having breakfast when a commotion outside their house caught their attention.

Hannah looked out the window and saw a group of neighbours huddled in a circle, discussing something. She wondered what they were doing. After eating a few more mouthfuls, she put down the cutlery and said, "I'll go downstairs to replace out what's going on."

Then, she went downstairs, with Daniel following suit.

Lacey was amused. "I think they'll never change their love for going along for the ride."

Zeke smiled. "This is life. They're just enjoying it."

Feigning anger, Lacey said, "Let's put that aside. Did you reflect on your actions last night?" Zeke was emotionally drained. "From now on, my wife is the most important. I'm all yours."

Lacey smiled triumphantly. "That's more like it. Hurry up and eat. We have to go to work after this"

Hannah, who went downstairs to watch the commotion, quickly figured out what had happened.

It turned out that the son of their neighbour, Madison Burke, had bought a new BMW that cost more than five hundred thousand. The neighbours were buttering Madison up.

"Madison, this BMW is so luxurious. It must be very comfortable to sit inside. You can enjoy your life from now on.

"Being the most expensive car in our neighbourhood now, it has brought the level of our neighbourhood up a notch."

"Mark is so rich at a young age. I'm sure his bright future awaits."

"Does Mark have a girlfriend? It just so happens that my niece is still single..."

Madison enjoyed being showered in flattery; her face swelled full of pride.

Meanwhile, Mark was setting firecrackers off nearby to celebrate his purchase of a new car.

Simply put, it was to remind the neighbours that he had bought a new car.

Pouting, Hannah murmured, "What's so great about buying a new car?"

Speaking of which, Hannah and the Hales used to have conflicts over the parking space, and to this day, they still didn't speak to each other even when they met on the street. Therefore, Hannah couldn't bear to see her enemies showing off their wealth.

Unexpectedly, her whisper was heard by Madison, who then asked in a cynical tone, "What did you say, Hannah?"
