A shiver ran down Lacey’s spine.
Isn’t Zeke dead?
Who is the groom then?
Could it be...
She looked at the first car intently as the car door was pushed open.
Zeke, dressed in a smart black suit with a bouquet in his hand, got off the car.
He strode over to Lacey, utterly mesmerized by her beauty.
“How pretty!”
“Hahahaha!” His groomsmen burst into laughter.
They had never seen the Great Marshal acting like a love-struck idiot.
“Kiss the bride!” Sole Wolf chanted.
The others joined in. “Kiss her, kiss her!”
Zeke smiled as he handed the bouquet to Lacey. “Lacey, please marry me.”
Lacey was still flabbergasted and unable to regain her composure.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis turn of event came as a shock to her.
Dawn shook her and urged, “Lacey, just say yes.”
Lacey finally recovered from her shock.
Suddenly, she burst out in loud wails and threw her fists against his chest.
“You are an asshole! Why didn’t you tell me you’re still alive? Why did you make me worry for you?”
She sobbed pitifully, “Zeke Williams, you are an asshole!”
Zeke was a little embarrassed.
Finally, Nancy came back to her senses and pulled Lacey back into her room.
“Zeke, look at what you have done to my sister. You made her cry!”
“Lemme tell you, you need to go through the whole procedure before you can marry my sister. Don’t think you can
get away with it.”
“Hurry, clean up the mess before you come in and ask for her hand.”
Bang!
Nancy shut the door after her announcement.
“Lacey, calm down right now. Do you want to be a crying bride? Don’t jinx your wedding by crying. You only get
married once, so you have to do it right,” Nancy told Lacey.
Outside the room, Zeke immediately understood what Nancy meant by ‘clean up the mess’.
He turned and glared at Lilith and the Sullivans coldly.
Right now, Lilith and the Sullivans were astonished at the drastic turn of the events.
Shit, how could Zeke still be alive?
The Iron Cavalry had lied to us!
Looks likes Zeke is also the Great Marshal’s disciple.
Otherwise, there’s no way he could invite all these big shots to his wedding.
But, the Great Marshal had just been assassinated.
Why are they here instead of going after his killer?
Sole Wolf inquired, “Zeke, how shall we deal with them?”
Zeke answered, “Today’s my wedding, so I don’t want any bloodshed.”
“Got it!”
Sole Wolf gritted his teeth. “Today is the wedding of a military officer. You have just sabotaged a military marriage
by causing a scene here.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Bring them away and make sure they get punished by the law!”
“Hold on!” Lilith yelled. “We’re not here to sabotage an officer’s wedding.”
“Actually, Lacey Hinton had schemed to kill your superior, the Great Marshal. I came here to report her
wrongdoings,” she tried to defend herself.
“What a load of crap,” Sole Wolf barked. “Our Great Marshal is alive and kicking! How dare you curse him?”
He added, “Besides, Lacey’s a family member of a military officer. Framing a military officer’s family member is
also a crime.”
“Come, seize them.”
What?
Lilith’s lips parted in disbelief.
The Great Marshal is still alive?
How is that possible?
If he’s alive, why isn’t he at the military parade?
Besides, isn’t Atheville under lockdown so they can find the killers?
Before she could ponder over it, Sole Wolf’s men had already taken her away.
“The wedding shall continue.”
After getting his emotions under control, Zeke headed to Lacey’s room.
