Chapter 864


    Lacey and Mia exchanged a thoughtful nce.


    They had indeed helped an old grandpa today.


    He was an old man who had difficulty walking. When he was trying to cross the road, there were cars


    honking at him.


    In his haste, he nearly fell down.


    At that critical moment, Lacey dashed forward to support the old man and instructed her photographer


    to cross the road with the old man on his back.


    Come to think of it, he was most likely the ‘grandpa’, whom Stanley was referring to.


    Thoroughly thinking it through, Lacey was ecstatic as she chirped, “Thank you, thank you. I knew that


    kindness begets kindness. Mr. Parker, if you don’t mind, I would like to go in and conduct my shoot


    now. Don’t worry, we won’t take up too much of your time.”


    Stanley responded, “No problem, I’ll personally guide you there.”


    Along the way, Lacey called Zeke.


    She stated, “Williams, we have settled the matter. You don’t have to worry anymore.”


    Zeke replied, “All right, I know. I’ve already contacted the boss personally.”


    Lacey mocked him, “Hoho, you tter yourself. What has this got to do with you? This is because we’d


    helped the boss’s grandpa. He is helping us because he wants to repay our favor.”


    Zeke’s mouth twitched slightly.


    You would never believe this, but just a casual word from me, and the boss of Sky Ocean Banquet has


    already called me his grandpa.


    Lacey then murmured, “All right, let’s hang up. We have to begin our shoot.”


    After an hour, at her own expense, Lily published her apology statement at all the major media outlets


    in Atheville.


    In the statement, she rified that she did not know Frederick Walters and that it was Helen Zelly who


    had bought her out, to deliberately frame the dead Frederick Walters.


    For that, she expressed her solemn apologies and condolences to Frederick Walters.


    Atheville exploded, the moment the statement was released.


    Eurasia had always prided themselves for their values, especially when it came to honoring the dead.


    Now that there was someone who had stooped to ndering and disrespecting the dead in order to


    protect their own reputation, it brought upon public indignation.


    The public censure against Helen rose again, and it was far more ferocious than the previous wave.


    As of this moment, she had not even dared to leave her own front door.


    This was because there was arge group of inquisitive reporters, and members of the public gathered


    at her front door. The moment she stepped out of her house, there would be rotten eggs and fruits,


    aimed at her.


    Helen was going mad.


    Everything was smooth sailing, all until Lily Rogers had suddenly pulled the rug underneath her feet.


    Looking at the current situation, there was no way of restoring her reputation.


    Die! Zeke Williams must die, in order to resolve the hatred in my heart!


    She immediately contacted the heads of the other three major families, in order to check on the


    progress of inviting foreign aid.


    In the statement, she rified that she did not know Frederick Walters and that it was Helen Zelly who


    had bought her out, to deliberately frame the dead Frederick Walters.


    Both Master Williams and Drake were of high status, and it would be impossible to settle the


    negotiations within such a short time frame.


    Both Master Williams and Drake were of high status, and it would be impossible to settle the


    negotiations within such a short time frame.


    Right now, all hopes were pinned onto Mrs. Moore, who was negotiating with the mountain robbers of


    Earth Emperor’s Mountains.


    At the Earth Emperor’s Mountains, the unshaven and unkempt Master put on an indifferent face while


    listening to Mrs. Moore’s exnation about the grievances between the four major families and Zeke


    Williams.


    After she had finished, he finally spoke. “Are you done?”


    Mrs. Moore nodded.


    He then announced, “Please see our guest on her way out.”


    Mrs. Moore gritted her teeth. “Master, are you afraid? Are you too fearful to attack Zeke Williams?”

    He replied, “No, I am not afraid. Rather, there is no need to offend Williams just for all of you. I’ve heard


    of that kid, and he is well known throughout the underworld. We could definitely finish him off if we


    gathered all our resources, but we would suffer great losses as well.”


    Mrs. Moore sniggered. “Fine, you deserve truly deserve to be the Master of the Earth Emperor’s


    Mountains, with your cruel heart. Your biological son was buried alive and has not been able to rest in


    peace, even until the current. Not only are you ignoring that, rather, but you are also still casually


    enjoying your position as the Master here. Really, you are inhumane.”


    The Master was confused. “Hang on, what do you mean? What biological son of mine?”
