Chapter - 221

Zeke headed to Lacey’s office.

Lacey and Dawn were both focused on a smartphone. They were watching a replay of the fight that had just happened.

Both of them had witnessed the whole fight from the window and had recorded it.

When Lacey noticed Zeke coming in, she quickly got up. “Zeke, who the heck is your friend? Isn’t he too strong?’

“He’s just a friend I met in prison,” Zeke said. “He likes to cause trouble and always got into a fight while he was in prison. That’s how he became what he is now.”

“Is that it? But he’s still too strong to be a mere battle junkie…” Lacey doubted.

“Lacey, think about it. Most of the prisoners are outlaws,” Dawn said as she tried to help Zeke out. “If he were to fight with these outlaws every day, it isn’t hard to see how he got this strong.”

Lacey nodded but her doubt still remained.

“So, how’s the thing with the Linton group progressing?” Zeke asked, hoping to change the subject.

“Everything’s prepared. All that’s left is a building, and I’ve already found one I like. I’m still negotiating the rental fee, though,” Lacey explained.

“Drop the negotiation,” Zeke said. “T-Rex will give us his building tomorrow. We’ll use that as the HQ = of the Linton Group.”

“Are you dreaming? There’s no way he’s going to give you anything,” Lacey scolded.

“Why don’t we make a bet then? If I win, we’ll stay at the Grand Millenium Hotel tomorrow,” Zeke smiled.

“Fine!” Lacey barked as her face turned red. “If you lose, you’ll address me as Ms. Hinton!”

Zeke couldn’t understand why Lacey liked people to address her officially.

“I want to join too!” Dawn raised her hand. “I’ll bet on Zeke. If he wins, I’ll be borrowing him for two days.”

“Very funny,” Lacey scolded as she rolled her eyes back.

Dawn could only stare at Lacey. I’m not joking…

“Sam, what’s the update on T-Rex?” Logan Hugh called Sam Clemons and asked.

“He failed miserably,” Sam replied. “All 300 of his men were defeated by less than 30 people. I also just heard that Zeke’s planning to take over the underground of Oakheart City.”

“20 men against 300 men? It looks like I’ve underestimated the man,” Logan said. “But don’t worry, the higher he climbs, the harder the fall will be.”

“Do you have another way to deal with Zeke?”

“Of course,” Logan nodded. “Don’t you know who controls the underground in Oakheart City?”

“Isn’t it T-Rex?”

“Wrong! The whole underground of Rivermouth is controlled by none other than Hades himself! T-Rex is just one of his subordinates! Tell me, if Hades knew Zeke took over his properties and killed his subordinate, what would he do?”

“He’ll deal with Zeke himself!” Sam exclaimed. “The only problem is that the police have taken T-Rex into custody. Zeke didn’t kill him.”

“Is that so? My senses are telling me T-Rex won’t live to see another day. You know what to do, right?”
