Chapter 365
This was a question that everyone was dying to know, so they perked up their ears to listen.
Deliberately playing dumb, Zeke retorted, “It’s not that hard to guess.”
“You guessed it? How?”
“That’s easy. Weren’t there rumors that the savior of the almighty general had been tortured by the Hinton family?
Well, the only person that fits the criteria among the dead would be her.”
Nancy tsked in annoyance, stating in a disdainful tone, “And here I thought there was something amazing about
you. Turns out I was right all along and you’re as useless as ever.”
The Hinton family relaxed at that, sighing in relief. They were deeply thankful that Zeke did not really know the
general.
“Let’s go already, Nancy. The contract for Whiteridge has already been signed so you need to carry out the terms,”

The stubborn woman refused, “I’m not going with you alone; what if you suddenly have perverted thoughts on the
way there? Besides, that project is my hero’s, so it won’t be running away anytime soon. I can go over whenever I
like.”
Zeke stared at Nancy before looking over at Lacey. “You’re overthinking things.”
“What?”
“Unless all the women in the world other than you are dead, I’ll definitely never have perverted thoughts about
you.”
“I’ll kill you!”
And so it was that Zeke went alone to Whiteridge.
The procedures for incorporating Whiteridge into Linton Group went right over his head as it was incredibly
complicated.
Opting to seek help, he called Dawn to have her come over and settle things.
When she found out that he had closed yet another deal that amounted to more than one billion, she was so
shocked that her voice quavered.
“Zeke...y-you really are something. Can I ask you how much Lacey pays you each month?”
“Five thousand. Wait, after I nabbed The Nightingale, she gave me a raise of five hundred. So that would be five
thousand and five hundred a month.”
Dawn chuckled deviously. “Zeke, I’m gonna be honest with you. I don’t plan on working for Lacey anymore; I want
to start up my own company. How about you come and be my salesperson instead? I can pay you ten times the
amount she’s giving, even a hundred-fold! If that’s still not enough, I... I can give myself up to you?”
Without a second’s hesitation, Zeke hung up on her.
He really hated it when people sugarcoated things.

Normally, there were only two people allowed into Hades’ office. One was the man himself, of course, and the
other was his best friend, Eclipse.
However, today there was a third person - the patriarch of the most prominent family in Riverdale, Gavin Forrest.
He was here because he wanted to ask Hades for help against that damned man, Zeke Williams.
Not only had that ba****d crippled his son, ruined his beautiful daughter’s face, and humiliated the Forrest Family,
he had also wiped out the underworld forces in Riverdale.
Without the support of the underworld, the Forrest Family was basically teetering on its last legs as a substantial
part of their businesses depended on such shady dealings.
For the sake of survival, they had no choice but to seek out Hades.
Hades’ face remained blank as he listened to Gavin air his grievances.
When the other man was done talking, Hades spoke up in an indifferent tone, “He’s but a mere ant beneath my
boot. Don’t worry, I’ve already sent my men to take care of him. Barring any accidents, Williams will be returning
what he took from us within the week.”
“What is ours, is ours. Nobody can take that away from us.”
