Chapter - 175

Despite having been married for decades, they had always been looked down upon by Lacey’s grandmother. She had treated them in an indifferent manner due to Daniel’s ineptitude.

They had never expected that she would suddenly change her attitude toward them. Even going as far as taking food for Daniel and apologizing to him after so many years.

Their hard days had finally come to an end.

However, Daniel knew Zeke was the one who helped him to get a contract with Reinz Pharmaceutical.

Not wanting to the credit, he said, “Mom, in fact, it’s all thanks to Zeke.”

“Thanks to Zeke?” Lacey’s grandmother asked in surprise.

Daniel nodded his head. “Zeke, you asked me to increase staff yesterday. The more the better. You even said that Reinz Pharmaceutical may have already gotten the contract for me ready. If I’m right, you’re the one who arranged for everything, aren’t you?”

“Dad, you’re thinking too much. I’ve only suggested to Susan to work with you,” Zeke said with a smile. “The main reason she offered is that you have got the outstanding ability and hence, won Susan’s favour.”

“Really?” Daniel doubted it.

All signs indicated that Zeke did all of this.

He didn’t believe what Zeke had said.

Douglas and Susan smiled wryly to themselves.

Why’s Zeke so low-key? He’s clearly the owner of Reinz Pharmaceutical, and yet he doesn’t want to take the credit.

I really can’t understand the world of the rich.

Zeke asked Lacey, “Lacey, our business now covers construction, food and beverage, and healthcare. It’s a bit too complicated. Can you manage it alone?”

“Yes, our business is indeed kind of messy.” Lacey massaged her temples. “But it’s okay, I’ll just sacrifice some of my free time to manage it.”

Zeke shook his head. “I think that isn’t very good. Why don’t we integrate these businesses into one, and set up a conglomerate? I’ve even come up with a name – Linton Group. You will be the director of the group, while Dad will be responsible for the healthcare industry. As for the shares of Grand Millenium, I will manage it.”

Lacey’s eyes instantly lit up. “That’s right. Why didn’t I think of this? We have the capital and are now fully capable of conglomeration. Once our group is listed, its market value will soar to at least tens of billions. By then, our family will soon become a second-rate family. However, there’s a flaw in your suggestions. How can a talent like you be a branch manager of F&B? This kind of job should be done by Dawnie.”

Zeke asked curiously, “Oh, what kind of job do you think a talent like me should do?”

“Continue to be my salesperson,” Lacey concluded.

Zeke was rendered speechless.

Lacey added, “You, as a salesperson, have gotten me Hamilton Construction, the Love in a Fallen City Project, 30% shares of Grand Millenium Hotel, and the contract with Reinz Pharmaceutical. Perhaps, you will get me some bigger projects next time. It’ll be a waste of talent if you don’t work as a salesperson!”

Everyone was stupefied.

That’s right. It’s really a waste of talent if he doesn’t work as a salesperson!

No, it’s not only a waste but an intolerable act!

Lacey must have saved the world in her previous life. That was why she could have such a capable salesperson.

Although Zeke was dissatisfied with this work arrangement, he did not object to it.

Glancing at Hannah, he noticed that she seemed a little down.

It was normal for her to feel down. As an under accomplished housewife, she must feel bad at heart seeing her family members thriving in their own favourite field.
