Chapter 322
“Luckily, we weren’t chased out from the family. So, we are allowed to pay respects to our ancestors every year in
Riverdale District.”
“Every year, when we return, grand-uncle Aaron’s family would mock us and look down on us. Well, Nancy’s the
only person who would defend us.”
“I heard she was ill-treated in Riverdale District because of that.”
As Lacey recalled the past, her eyes reddened.
Zeke felt his heart begin to ache. Seems like the Hilton family in Riverdale District had bullied Lacey many times.
He regretted not dealing with the Hinton family when he dismantled the underground forces in Riverdale District.
Pulling Lacey into his arms, he comforted her. “Lacey, I’m here. So from now on, no one can bully you anymore.”
Lacey snuggled up against Zeke’s chest. “I’m glad you’re here.”
Meanwhile, Nancy stormed out of the building angrily while cursing Zeke silently.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWhen she arrived at the car park and was about to get into her Maserati, an old car parked at a side grabbed her
attention.
A Santana!
An old Santana!
Isn’t this the Santana my hero drove?
It looks exactly like the one he drove!
Suddenly, she felt emotional, as if she were about to burst into tears.
My hero is here, too!
My hero and I are fated to be.
Wait, is he here to look for me because he likes me?
That must be it!
Luck is on my side.
I’ve been searching for him high and low for so long. Now here he is, appearing right in front of me!
She hurriedly took out her phone and made a call to Lacey. “Lacey, hurry, come to the car park now.”
“My hero is in your building. Help me check the surveillance camera and help me find where he is now.”
In the building, Zeke and Lacey were mere inches away from each other.
Zeke leaned closer and was about to kiss Lacey’s red lips when her phone suddenly rang.
The sudden sound stopped the romance in the room at once.
Zeke could feel his fury heightening. Who’s the fool calling her right now?
After hanging up, Lacey told Zeke, “Let’s go to the car park. It’s Nancy.”
Nancy again!
Zeke clenched his fists in rage. This woman is a pest!
They soon arrived at the car park.
Nancy was circling the Santana in delight. She’d occasionally reach out to touch the car, seemingly engrossed.
Zeke was utterly confused. Why is she circling my Santana?
Lacey glanced around, but no one else was there. She inquired curiously, “Nancy, where’s your hero?”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmNancy tugged Lacey to the car and said, “Lacey, look. This is my hero’s car.”
“Today, I saw him drive this car. He drove at a speed of 200 mph. My hero isn’t only a powerful man, he’s also a
great racer. How perfect is that!”
Lacey was dumbstruck.
Zeke stared at her in disbelief.
Hero? She just called me a kept man. Why is she regarding me as a hero now?
She must be crazy.
Nancy urged, “Lacey, why are you still standing here? Hurry, go to the control room and find out who’s the owner
of this car.”
Lacey took a deep breath. “Nancy, you might not believe me, but this car is mine. Recently, Zeke has been driving
it.”
W-What?
Nancy was mind-blown as her body trembled. ‘You mean... That kept man is my hero?”
