Chapter 1796
Missy had a sensing capability and could clearly see the shadow of the sarira''s owner when she was
enveloped by the bright light earlier.
“It''s just a bad dream, Missy. Daddy''s here, so you have nothing to fear,” Zekeforted her as he
carried her in his arms.
“Mmm!” Missy believed his words readily and nuzzled against his chest.
Lacey, on the other hand, knew he wasn''t telling the truth when she saw the mess around them.
“Is everything all right, Zeke?” she asked worriedly.
“Yeah, nobody''s going to bully you two with me around!” Zeke replied with a faint smile.
“Missy and I are always causing you guys so much trouble... How about you send us back before going
about your business?” Lacey eximed apologetically.
“We''re in no rush. I''ll spend some time with you and Missy once I''m done with this,” Zeke said
reassuringly.
Josephine then ran up to Lacey and tugged at her arm as she pleaded desperately, “I''m sorry, Lacey!
I''m so sorry! I shouldn''t have done all those horrible things to you! I didn''t know you were the Great
Marshal''s wife! I didn''t mean to offend you like this! Please forgive me!”
She even began pping herself like crazy just to prove her point.
Josephine must be the one responsible for this if she''s apologizing to me now!
Lacey frowned at the thought of that and said with a sigh, “Josephine, I can''t believe how cruel and
vicious you''ve be in just a few years. You even went as far as trying to kill me a few times! From
now on, our friendship is over, and we will have nothing to do with each other.”
No, don''t...
Josephine got on her knees and continued to beg, “I am truly sorry, Lacey! We''ve been neighbors for
so many years now! Will you please give me another chance? I''ll even be your ve if you want!”
Because Lacey was the Great Marshal''s wife, even being her ve was enough to help Josephine
make her way into the upper sses of society.
However, Zeke would never agree to that arrangement even if Lacey did.
He then held Lacey''s hand and said, “Come on, Lacey. Let''s go.”
After a brief moment of hesitation, Lacey nced at Zeke and gritted her teeth as she nodded. “Okay.”
I might have just forgiven Josephine if she had hurt me alone, but she went too far when she hurt
Missy!
As Zeke left the area with Lacey, he motioned for Sole Wolf to kill Josephine.
Lacey was Josephine''sst chance at survival, so watching her leave, she felt as though she was
seeing her life fade away.
She kept screaming at the top of her lungs for Lacey to save her, but Lacey didn''t even look back at
her.

Josephine tried to run after them out of desperation, but Sole Wolf drew his sword and held it against
her throat.
She instinctively stopped in her tracks when she felt the icy coldness of the de on her skin.
Having no other options, Josephine dropped to her knees and cried as she made herst plea, “I''m
begging you! Please spare my life! I''m willing to be your ve! I''ll do anything, anything at all! Please
don''t kill me! I don''t want to die...”
“Listen up, Josephine! You have, on multiple asions, attempted to harm the Great Marshal''s family
and disyed great impudence toward him. ording to thew, we are supposed to execute your
entire family! However, we are willing to spare your family members in view of your friendship with Mrs.
Williams and execute you alone. Do you ept this sentence?”
No! No! No!
“Please, just let me see Lacey one more time! I''m sure she wouldn''t want me to die!” Josephine yelled
desperately.
“It seems you do not ept my sentence. In that case, I will have no choice but to execute your entire
family along with you,” Sole Wolf eximed with a sigh.
Having lost all hope, Josephine wailed in despair, “No, don''t! I''ll ept it! I''m willing to offer my life as
penance!”
