Chapter 935
Lord Protector Novel
Zach and Lucille could not stop their snickering.
Heâs shameless when heâs trying to build a relationship with the Great Marshal.
How can he think of promoting himself to General Cosmopolis at a time like this?
Does he think General Cosmopolis is the average person?
Hmph. Just you wait. General Cosmopolis surely wonât let you off easily.
After watching the video, Wolfâs Greed exclaimed, âVery well! This is excellent work! The Linton Group is now vivid in my head after watching it once. It seems like your company has some capabilities in filming promotional videos. Iâll leave this task to you. As for the reward... Iâll give you half of Eurasia Picturesâ shares. The Great Marshal doesnât have the time to manage Eurasia Pictures. Youâll have to manage it well on his behalf.â
What?
It was as if time had come to a standstill.
Everyone was staring at Wolfâs Greed with widened eyes and slackened jaws.
General Cosmopolis actually agreed to it!
He just gave them half of Eurasia Picturesâ shares!
This is unbelievable!
Lacey was the first to come back to her senses. With unconcealed delight, she exclaimed her gratitude to Wolfâs Greed, âThank you very much, Sir!â
Wolfâs Greed waved his hand dismissively with a smile. âNo need for any thanks. You deserve this.â
âDepart!â
Wolfâs Greed then led his men away.
A cold breeze blew into the room from the slightly opened window and straight into Lucille and Zachâs heart.
If they had promoted themselves earlier, Zeke would not have stood a chance.
They had just lost an opportunity to build a relationship with the Great Marshal!
Zeke had used the Williams family as a stepping stone in achieving his goal.
Zach took in a deep breath before looking at Lucille. âGrandma, now... Now, what do we do?â
An awful feeling was overwhelming Lucille despite her attempts to keep it at bay.
She huffed as she glared at Zeke, âZeke, we kicked you out of the Williams family because you were just an incapable black sheep of the family back then. However, now that youâre the Great Marshalâs business partner, youâre worthy of becoming a member of the Williams family. I now permit you to return to the Williams family. Of course, youâll have to hand over the shares the Great Marshal gave you to the family.â
If Zeke returned to the Williams family, that would mean the Williams family was the Great Marshalâs business partner.
They could kick Zeke out of the family once they got their hands on the shares.
With a smile that did not reach his eyes, Zeke muttered, âHm? Is this pity?â
Zach replied, âThatâs right. Weâre doing this out of pity for you. I hope youâll be smart enough to take the opportunity before it slips away.â
âPfft!â
Zeke could not help but laugh. âThis is the greatest joke Iâve heard in my entire life! The Williams family is unworthy of me! If you had begged me to return, I might have considered it, but since you said itâs done out of pity for me... Iâm sorry. You should stop dreaming about it from now on.â
Lucille fumed, âZeke, you should think this through before giving us an answer. Without the Williams family supporting you, itâll be tough for you to make a living in Atheville.â
Without sparing them another glance, Zeke turned to Lacey. âLacey, hereâs a task for you. End all business relations Eurasia Pictures has with the Williams family and fire every employee whoâs related to the Williams family.â
Lacey nodded. âI understand.â
Preposterous!
His words had stunned Lucille like a bolt of lightning.
Zeke was ruthless; he was not giving them any chances to build a relationship with the Great Marshal.
Now, not only did the Williams family hand over Eurasia Pictures without gaining any benefits in return, but Zeke had also taken advantage of the situation and made himself known to the Great Marshal.
It was humiliation like never before.
A look of wrath was plastered on Zachâs face as he seethed, âGrandma, what do we do now?â
Lucille gritted out, âIf Zeke wants to send us to hell, weâll drag him there too!â
Right then, Conrad leaned over. âMrs. Williams, thereâs no need to be so angry. Itâs bad for your health.â
Lucille laughed bitterly. âHow can I not be angry? That useless boy is infuriating!â
Conrad then continued, âMrs. Williams, Iâll be honest with you. Thereâs a chance for you to build a relationship with the Great Marshal and even become his most loyal partner.â
