Harry nodded and replied, “I was going to suggest the very same thing.”
Bill responded, “Then let's strike while the iron is hot and begin our joined investigation right away.”
Harry and Bill left together after that.
Dawn waited until they were gone before she spoke in a weird tone. “Lacey, did you notice something strange
about Mr. Zimmer? Why did his attitude change so drastically? For some reason, I get the feeling that he is trying to
butter us up.”
Lacey replied, “Yeah, he changed because he learned who Zeke really is.”
“What? How did he find out?” said one of the other girls. Both Dawn and Nancy were surprised, though.
Lacey replied, “Actually, Harry knows who Zeke really is, and I'm guessing Harry is the one who told Mr. Zimmer the
truth.”
Dawn and Nancy were even more surprised to hear that. “But... Harry is just the head of a random police station,
so how does he know who Zeke is?”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLacey answered, “Zeke wanted someone to look out for us when he is away, so he told Harry the truth. I actually
turned to Harry a few times in the past when Linton Group got in trouble.”
Dawn instantly tilted her head down and slumped her shoulders. “So Linton Group has always had Harry on our
side? D*rn, I thought I solved those issues all on my own and was so proud of myself. The truth hurts so d*mn
much...”
Lacey smiled at Dawn and cooed, “Come on, Dawnie. Don't be like that. You still did an incredible job.”
Nancy then asked, “Linton Group is under attack now, Lacey, so won't things be worse with us, the leaders, away?
Maybe we should head back. Intercontinental Group is after the company, not us, so I don't think we'll get hurt.”
Lacey replied, “Nancy, we must not underestimate the issue. Our opponent isn't just Intercontinental Group. We're
also dealing with that Dullioud thing, and they are not just after Linton Group. They want us dead, too. That is why
the best option is for us to stay here and wait until Zeke is back.”
“Okay, then.”
The two other ladies nodded.
At midnight.
Lacey's phone rang all of a sudden.
She picked it up and checked the screen to see that she had a message from Zeke. He told her that he had already
gotten off his plane and would be there in about ten minutes or so.
Lacey got off the bed right away to cook for Zeke.
Her movement ended up waking both Dawn and Nancy up.
Nancy was still groggy when she asked, “Lacey, it's the middle of the night, so why are you busying away?”
Lacey replied, “Zeke is on his way over, and he must be hungry after a journey like that. I'm going to cook
something for him.”
Dawn was delighted to hear that. “He's back already? Yes! I wonder if he brought snacks back for me.”
Both Lacey and Nancy were exasperated as they stared at Dawn. She is just like a kid sometimes.
All that had woken Dawn and Nancy up, so they decided to get out of bed as well.
The VIP room they were staying in didn't have a kitchen, so Lacey had no choice but to go to the pantry to cook for
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmZeke.
Dawn and Nancy, on the other hand, sat on the sofa and waited patiently for Zeke to show up.
It didn't take long before a dark figure slipped into a room as though it were a ghost. The intruder came in via the
window and moved quietly.
Hence, neither Dawn nor Nancy realized what was going on.
The intruder made it all the way to the girls before the door to the room flung open. Two muscular men showed up
and roared, “Stand down, you despicable criminal!”
The sudden emergence of the two men surprised both Dawn and Nancy. It only lasted a moment, though, because
they quickly identified the guys as Harry's subordinates.
Huh, I didn't know that the two men were stationed right outside.
Dawn replied, “What is up with you guys? Why did you barge in? There are no criminals here.”
One of the police officers immediately informed, “Ladies, please move away right now. The criminal is behind you.”
Huh?
Both ladies instantly turned pale. They turned around quickly. Only then did they see the shadow lurking behind
them.
