Conrad.
The head of the renowned Lewis family!
“I have no feud with you. Why did you kidnap me?” Alfred asked in trepidation.
Conrad replied, “My business isn’t with you. Unfortunately, you’re acquainted with Zeke Williams.”
Alfred scoffed, “Heh! You can’t beat Mr. Williams, so you’re targeting the people around him instead? That’s
despicable! I didn’t expect the head of the Lewis family to do something so disgusting.”
Conrad spat, “I don’t have time to argue with you. I’ll let you off if you help me with something.”
Alfred roared, “Never! I, Alfred Booth, have lived as a righteous man my entire life. I’ll never harm a friend!”
“Very well, then. You leave me with no choice - Kill Alfred’s mother!” Conrad bellowed.

Alfred flew into a state of panic and yelled, “Stop! Hold on! Don’t harm my family! You... What do you want me to
do?”
Conrad smiled, “Simple. Invite Zeke to Contour Hotel for a drink.”
Alfred frowned, “You’re going to poison his drink?”
“You underestimate Williams. If my son, Ryker, can die in his hands, such a petty trick won’t work on him.” Conrad
scoffed.
Conrad.
The head of the renowned Lewis family!
What? Alfred was bewildered. Ryker is a general and even he died against Zeke. Even if he were Master Williams,
surely he couldn’t go against a general! There must be more to Zeke than meets the eye! It’s almost laughable that
I tried to teach him a lesson on Fatso’s behalf!
Alfred queried, “From what I understand, the Lewis family’s greatest trump card is General Ryker. If even he’s no
match for Zeke, how are you going to deal with him?”
Conrad explained, “Ryker is not my trump card. My trump card is Tulle!”
Tulle? Alfred’s eyes widened. The Lewis family knows people from the top international band of mercenaries, Tulle!
Looks like everyone has underestimated the true power of the Lewis family. Atheville is full of powerful men and
families!
Since Conrad had threatened Alfred with the lives of his family, he had no choice but to agree to help the Lewis
family.

He mulled it over, but he felt that he was insignificant in Zeke’s eyes. If he had invited Zeke himself, Zeke would not
attend for sure.
Hence, he decided to approach Lacey instead.
If he could convince Lacey to put in a good word for him, Zeke would surely agree to attend.
He knew that to Zeke; Lacey was more important than his own life. Thus, he would never defy his wife’s wishes.
With that, Alfred decided to avoid Zeke and talk to Lacey. When he found her, he explained the situation, “Ms.
Hinton, can you get Mr. Williams to help me? I’ve gotten myself into a spot of trouble that only he can help me with.
If Mr. Williams doesn’t help me, my entire family’s lives are in danger.”
Lacey hurriedly questioned, “What’s wrong, Mr. Booth? Tell me about it in detail.”
Alfred sighed, “My wife and family were kidnapped by someone who wanted to kill them. I have arranged to meet
them in Contour Hotel for negotiations. But I’m worried that I won’t be able to handle them alone, so I’d like to ask
Mr. Williams for help.”
After thinking about it, Lacey agreed to help.
