Chapter 993

However, I called off our engagement and even threatened to die when things didn’t go my way.

If I hadn’t been that foolish and had married him obediently, I would’ve been the capable and powerful Great Marshal’s wife by now!

Ugh... I’ve ruined my chance.

In the hall, everyone was stunned by the gunshot.

Did Conrad or Robin die?

However, that wasn’t important anymore.

What was important was that Zeke had taken over the Lewis family and Williams family single-

handedly!

He even destroyed the Lewis family!

Zeke was once disowned, but he was now the head of the Williams family and had an edge on them.

Thus, of course, they were upset about that.

Right then, Zeke touched a pillar right beside him and lamented, “I remembered this pillar collapsed when I was five. It fell on top of me, and I fainted at once.”

“The pillar also injured my so-called brother, Zach, but he only got a scratch on his head. He only bled a little. However, everyone in the Williams family surrounded him in concern, and no one came to me. I was lying in a pool of blood and almost died!”

“In the end, Uncle Williams was the one who sent me to the hospital,” he uttered.

Everyone in the Williams family lowered their heads. However, it was not in shame because the only thought that popped out in their minds was that Zeke should have died back then.

“Forget it,” Zeke sighed. “There’s no point talking about the past. Now, I’m the head of the Williams family. Hence, I hereby declare that from now on, everyone here is no longer part of the Williams family!”

The entire Williams family fell into a debacle.

The person their family despised the most was going to chase them out of the family!

No one could understand their despair.

However, none of them dared to stand up against Zeke as they were afraid they’d end up like Conrad.

Although Conrad didn’t die here, they could still smell the stench of his blood from a distance.

At once, the Williams family started pleading for forgiveness.

But Zeke remained indifferent and shot them a mocking gaze. “This seems familiar, huh?”

Back then, Zeke had pleaded with them not to bring him to jail, but they were cold-hearted enough to ignore him.

Since it was obvious that Zeke wouldn’t listen to them, they ended up asking for Ben’s help.

Ben sighed. “Well, don’t blame him for being heartless. He had gone through all kinds of obstacles growing up, so naturally, he now loathed evildoers.”

“He’s merely treating you the way you treated him back then. So you can’t blame him for doing this.”

“However, Sir, please don’t draw a conclusion now. Come with me. I’ll show you something. You can make a decision after this,” he turned to Zeke and told him.

Zeke nodded, and Ben brought him to the Williams Hallow at the back of the house.

He noticed how Ben was limping slowly and smiled. “Uncle Williams, you’re much older than I remember. You should retire and spend the rest of your life here in the Williams Manor.”

Ben’s lips curled into a content smile. “Yes, I’m old and useless now. If another pillar falls on you, I’m afraid I can’t save you anymore.”

“However, Sir, you’re untouchable now. So I don’t think that any pillar will be able to fall on you.”

They soon arrived at Williams Hallow, which housed tombstones of the ancestors of the Williams family.

Ben brought Zeke to a corner in the graveyard where a small tombstone was erected with the engraved words: In loving memory of our beloved son, Zeke Williams.

“He’s merely treoting you the woy you treoted him bock then. So you con’t blome him for doing this.”

“However, Sir, pleose don’t drow o conclusion now. Come with me. I’ll show you something. You con moke o decision ofter this,” he turned to Zeke ond told him.

Zeke nodded, ond Ben brought him to the Willioms Hollow ot the bock of the house.

He noticed how Ben wos limping slowly ond smiled. “Uncle Willioms, you’re much older thon I remember. You should retire ond spend the rest of your life here in the Willioms Monor.”

Ben’s lips curled into o content smile. “Yes, I’m old ond useless now. If onother pillor folls on you, I’m ofroid I con’t sove you onymore.”

“However, Sir, you’re untouchoble now. So I don’t think thot ony pillor will be oble to foll on you.”

They soon orrived ot Willioms Hollow, which housed tombstones of the oncestors of the Willioms fomily.

Ben brought Zeke to o corner in the groveyord where o smoll tombstone wos erected with the engroved words: In loving memory of our beloved son, Zeke Willioms.
