Chapter 930
Lord Protector Novel
Zeke fumed, âThey have a death wish! Lacey, donât panic. Iâll be there right away.â
After ending the call, Zeke instructed, âWolfâs Greed, bring a group to Eurasia Pictures.â
Wolfâs Greed replied, âOf course.â
Grabbing his car keys, Zeke rushed out of his office and drove off toward Eurasia Pictures.
He was contemplating, during his ride there.
Even if the cooperation had failed, Eurasia Pictures has no reason to put Lacey in a tight spot.
It canât be the doing of someone from the Williams family, can it?
After all, Eurasia Pictures is one of the Williams familyâs businesses.
Zeke sighed.
He had not wanted to uproot the entire Williams family as they were his family, but it seemed like they were adamant about testing his patience.
Iâll cut off one of your legs this time.
At Eurasia Pictures.
Lacey was trapped at the CEOâs office.
Two burly men were standing by the doorway and blocking her exit.
Like a frightened sparrow, Lacey was trembling in a corner.
In front of her were fragments of Chime Bells scattered across the floor.
Earlier, when they had failed to come to an agreement during the talk, and when Lacey was about to leave, the secretary abruptly pushed the Chime Bells and broke them when she walked past them.
However, the CEO, Alec Matthews, had insisted that she was the one who had pushed it. He had then asked for compensation, going as far as threatening her.
In the end, she called for help from Zeke.
Alec took a drag of his cigarette before saying, âYou pay for the property you damage. This is a concept even kindergarten children understand. As the president of a company, Iâm sure you know a concept like this, right?â
Lacey argued, âYour secretary was the one whoâd pushed the Chime Bells earlier. This has nothing to do with me.â
Alec sneered, âBut I donât have any secretaries.â
Laceyâs face reddened as she seethed, âFine. Even if I was the one who pushed it, you canât be greedily asking for a billion. The maximum price of this thing is hundreds of thousands!â
âRidiculous!â Alec fumed, âDo you mean what I bought was fake? My Chime Bell is a relic of the war, and itâs a national treasure. Its conversation value is five billion. Iâm already kind by only asking for one billion from you.â
Lacey argued, âThere is only one Chime Bells from the war, and itâs in the national museum. Yours is a counterfeit.â
D*** you!
Fury surged in Alec as he raised his hand, about to hit Lacey.
The burly men by the doorway swiftly stopped him, âMr. Matthews, letâs calm down and talk. I donât think sheâll be able to compensate a billion. Why donât you ask her to compensate you in other ways?â
Alec nodded, âYouâre right. Alright. If you canât compensate through monetary means, youâll have to compensate with other ways.â
To quickly settle the matter, Lacey asked, âTell me. How do you want me to compensate you?â
Alec replied, âItâs simple. Sleep with my boss for one night.â
Lacey froze. âYour boss? You arenât the companyâs CEO?â
Alec answered, âNo. Iâm just working under someone else. The real boss of the company is Zach Williams.â
What?
Lacey was astounded.
Eurasia Pictures belongs to the Williams family?
If I had known about it, I wouldnât have collaborated with Eurasia Pictures!
Lacey stood up and walked toward the door. âTrust Media will not be collaborating with you anymore.
Please let me go. As for the compensation, Iâll tell my lawyer to contact you.â
Naturally, the men by the doorway would not let go. With a push, Lacey fell to the ground. Her hands landed on the fragments of the Chime Bells, and she shrieked in pain.
That was the scene that had greeted Zeke, who soon rushed over.
