    Chapter 330


    The silver needle sliced through the bracket of the ceiling fan, cutting it in two.


    The ceiling fan spinning at a high speed immediately crashed down onto the round table.


    The teacups and tea set on the table were crushed into pieces. The tea in the teacups sshed on


    everyone.


    The Riverdale Hinton’s were either scalded by the hot tea or shocked by the turn of events. They


    leaped up from their seats and started cursing aloud.


    Everyone in Lacey’s family felt their hearts dropped at once.


    S***! Zekeshed out after all.


    He’s in huge trouble!


    At once, Aaron fumed, “Zeke Williams, you’re digging your own grave! How dare you cause a huge


    ruckus here?”


    Lacey defended Zeke instantly. “Grand-uncle, this is a misunderstanding. The ceiling fan must’ve fallen


    down because the bracket is old and unmaintained. It has nothing to do with Zeke.”


    Daniel hurriedly echoed, “Yes, Uncle. Zeke didn’t touch the fan at all.”


    The silver needle was too tiny and swift, so no one saw it.


    Michael snarled, “Shut up. Everyone saw what happened. You can’t deny it.”


    “Zeke said he wanted all of us to stand. Then he waved his hand, and the fan fell down. Was that a


    coincidence?”


    Nancy chimed in, “Grandpa, you’ve overestimated Zeke. If he can make the fan fall with a wave of his


    hand, he wouldn’t have to live off his wife.”


    “This is pure coincidence. The fan must’ve fallen because it’s old and unmaintained.”


    Nancy was not defending Zeke. She was merely expressing her thoughts.


    The crowd quietened down.


    Nancy is right.


    Zeke is a man who lived off his wife. How can he make the fan fall with just a wave of his hand? What a


    joke.


    Aaron finally responded, “Since you’re giving Linton Group to me, I won’t pursue the matter further. As


    we can no longer sit here, let’s go to the hotel for dinner.”


    The banquet room was in a mess, and the chairs were all wet. They could no longer sit on the chairs.


    Everyone nodded, agreeing with his idea.


    Aaron looked at Michael. “Michael, I told you to arrange our family dinner at Hilton Hotel. Did you make


    the arrangements?”


    Michael nodded. “Yes, Grandpa. I did. But Grandpa, I have a question.”


    “Go on,” Aaron pressed.


    Michael asked, “Why did you choose Hilton Hotel as the venue? We can afford to choose a better


    hotel.”


    Aaron replied, “Don’t you know Hilton Hotel’s background?”


    Michael said, “I heard there’s a casino in Hilton Hotel that belongs to the underworld boss of Riverdale,


    Samuel.”

    Aaron nodded. “That was in the past. Recently, a mysterious man took over the underworld forces of


    Riverdale. Now, that casino belongs to him.”


    Everyone nodded in agreement.


    “Yes, this has been the talk of the town. We’ve heard about it.”


    “It was said that the mysterious man took down five hundred men by himself. The men’s whereabouts


    are still unknown.”


    “What? Is the mysterious man a divine being?”


    “Even if the story might’ve been exaggerated, there’s no smoke without fire. That mysterious man must


    be a capable man.”


    None of them knew that the mysterious man they were talking about was standing right in front of them.


    They had even mocked the man as someone who had lived off his wife.
