Hannah sighed sadly, “Zeke, don’t lie to me. I know that you and Nancy were kidnapped by bandits.”
Zeke quickly explained, “Mom, we weren’t kidnapped. Nancy and I went to investigate the matter regarding the
bandits ourselves.”
“Yeah. We weren’t kidnapped but went to investigate the matter instead.” Nancy also backed Zeke up.
Hannah’s face scrunched up with confusion. “But your grandmother said that you were both kidnapped by bandits
and that your lives were at stake.”
Zeke’s eyes snapped towards Lucille.
Lucille’s heart was thumping violently against her ribcage, and a bad feeling rose within her.
D*** it. I haven’t even given Ryker the green light. Why did he let these two go already?
Could something have happened to him?
But the agreement has been signed, so my job here is done.
Whether Ryker lives or dies has nothing to do with me.
She coldly stated, “I’ll take my leave now since you’re safe.”

“Wait. What’s that in your hand?” Zeke asked in a frigid tone.
“It’s none of your business,” Lucille answered.
Dawn anxiously shouted, “Zeke, destroy the documents in her hands!”
“She used both of your lives to threaten us to sign a share transfer agreement.”
D*** it!
Hannah sighed sadly, “Zeke, don’t lie to me. I know that you and Nancy were kidnapped by bandits.”
Zeke’s arm shot out in a blur of motion as he snatched the documents from her hands. Then, he tore it to pieces on
the spot.
Lucille was overwhelmed with rage and she gritted her teeth. “You unfilial grandson! How dare you disrespect your
grandmother?”
“You... You’ll be banished to the lowest level in hell sooner or later.”
Zeke scoffed derisively. “Grandmother? You have the audacity to call yourself my grandmother?”
“Which grandmother in the world would knowingly send her innocent grandson to prison?” He roared.
Daniel and Hannah were both shaken to the core.
It was Zeke’s grandmother who had sent him to prison back then?
Zeke has gone through so much in life.
Lucille gnashed her teeth together and replied, “Yes, yes, yes! Now that you’re all grown up, we can no longer
control you.”
“Nonetheless, don’t be so sure of yourself. General Ryker from the Lewis family will teach you a lesson.”
Zeke smiled faintly and admitted, “General Ryker is already down. I’m afraid he can’t help you anymore.”
Lucille’s face brightened. “General Ryker is downstairs? Thank God! I’ll call him now and get him to deal with you.”
Nancy arched a brow and curiously asked, “Zeke, is your grandmother cuckoo in the head? When you said ‘down’,
didn’t she get that you meant down in hell?”
Zeke’s smile broadened and he shrugged. “Many things can’t be explained with mere words.”
Everyone present was shocked beyond comprehension.
In the past, Nancy had always called Zeke a ‘kept-man’.
When did she start calling him by his name?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIt was unbelievable!
Lucille looked at Zeke with a complicated expression. “General Ryker... is dead? You... You killed him?”
Her eyes widened in disbelief. “You’re all finished! The military definitely won’t let you go. You can all wait to receive
your punishments!”
“General Ryker knew that he had committed an unforgivable sin, so he ended his own life. It has nothing to do with
us.”
“Do you expect me to believe that he ended his own life just because you said so?” Lucille retorted.
“I know that all of you harbored a deep resentment towards General Ryker, which no doubt intensified when he
discovered your collusion with the bandits. I’m more certain than anything that you had all killed him to bury this
matter...”
Nancy, who was a self-proclaimed bringer of justice, could not take it anymore. With a frustrated sigh, she
muttered, “Zeke, I think this grandmother of yours was an old witch in her past life. She’s evil through and
through.”
“What kind of person forces her grandson off a cliff repeatedly?”
