They nodded in silence without even asking a single question.
Zeke went to see Lacey and Missy. Since he was going to Mount Kush, he couldn't leave the two of them here, or
he'd be worried.
He wanted to send them to Atheville. It was the nation's capital, and those from Netherworld would never dare to
stir any trouble there.
Lacey and Missy were having lunch. When Zeke came, Missy quickly opened her arms. “I want a hug, Daddy. A
hug!”
Zeke picked her up happily. “Have you been a good girl, Missy?”
Missy nodded. “I have. I'm not picky about my food, and I had a lot of veggies today.”
“Good girl!” Zeke praised her.
Lacey said, “Come back down, Missy. Let your daddy have his lunch.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Okay.” Missy asked Zeke to put her back in the highchair so she could keep eating her lunch.
Lacey said, “Have it while it's hot, Zeke. It's your favorite.”
Every single dish on the table was Zeke's favorite, lovingly made by Lacey. Naturally, Zeke would never let that go
to waste. Even though he was in a hurry, he still sat down and had the meal.
Missy was happy, for her parents were around. She suddenly had a huge appetite and ate more than she usually
did.
After they had finished their lunch, Zeke brought up the main conversation he wanted to have. “Lacey, I'll have to
leave you guys again. There's urgent business happening on Mount Kush, and I am needed there.”
Lacey started getting nervous all of a sudden. “Mount Kush? The holy mountain of Eurasia? That's a remote area.
It's harsh and treacherous there. Almost nobody makes it out alive. Do you really have to go, Zeke?”
Zeke nodded. “Yes, I really have to.”
“I see.” Lacey was worried, so she told him, “Then you have to be extremely careful there. Safety first, do you hear
me? Missy and I will wait right here until you return.”
Zeke shook his head. “Lacey, I think you and Missy should go back to Atheville. I'll get someone to take you home.
Corleon's situation is a mess right now. It'll be dangerous for you if you stay here.”
Lacey answered, “But I promised Nancy and Dawnie that I'd be waiting for them in Corleon.”
Zeke looked at her curiously. “Nancy and Dawnie are coming to Corleon? That's sudden. Did they say why they're
coming over?”
Nancy was Lacey's cousin, while Dawn was the sister Lacey adopted. The two of them were Lacey's closest friends.
Zeke was puzzled. They should be managing Linton Group in Atheville. So, why are they suddenly coming over to
Corleon?
Lacey explained, “A company's leader contacted them a couple of days ago. He said he has a huge business
opportunity that he wants to share with them. The deal runs up to about ten billion or so. If they manage to snag
this, it'll be a big boon for the company. They really care about the partnership, so they're going to do the

go back.”
Zeke, however, thought about something else. This is too convenient to be called a coincidence. I smell a
conspiracy in here.
Zeke couldn't just up and leave after finding out that there was a conspiracy going on, so he decided to stay and
see what would happen.
Nancy and Dawn would arrive at three in the morning the following day, so Zeke went to the airport at three in the
morning to pick them up.
A short while later, the ladies disembarked from the airplane. Nancy and Dawn were both gorgeous, beautiful ladies
to begin with. And with some makeup on, their beauty was enhanced even further, making them the center of
attention.
Wherever they went, they'd attract all the men's attention. Once they came out of the airport, they saw Zeke
waiting for them, so they quickly went over to him.
But when they went past the parking lot, a young man suddenly stopped right in front of them. Judging from his
clothes and attitude, the ladies knew the young man was nothing but a playboy.
