And from the looks of it, he is not even injured! What is going on!
Lacey went to Zeke’s side hurriedly and scrutinized him from head to toe.
Finally, she heaved a deep sigh of relief, “I know that they are lying to me. You have made so many contributions to
the nation. Eurasia will not evict you simply because you are injured now.”
Zeke burst out laughing.
Silly girl, You are right. I am indeed evicted from the nation, but that is only because I have requested it.
Nonetheless, Zeke did not intend to reveal the truth to Lacey for fear of worrying her.
Patting Lacey on her head, he assured her, “Lacey, always remember this: You just need to trust me and me alone
in this world. As for the others, you can just ignore them.”
Lacey nodded, “I get it.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAt the sight of Zeke, Clyde could not help but felt fearful. He was simply too traumatized by Zeke.
He asked in a trembling voice, “How can you still be alive? You are nothing but a disabled man now. How can you
escape alive from the hands of so many strong warriors?”
Zeke did not wish to delve into the matter as he did not want to worry Lacey.
Changing the subject, he asked, “Are you selecting the new leader of the Thisleton family? I will settle scores with
you in the future. Now, I want my wife, Lacey Hinton, to be the new Thisleton family leader. Does anyone have an
objection?”
Everyone was stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter.
Are our ears playing tricks on us? Zeke is an outsider. How dare he appoint his wife to be our new leader? He may
have a say in this matter if he is still the former Great Marshal, but he is disabled now. We do not need to fear him
anymore.
Lacey bowed her head in embarrassment.
Suppressing his laughter, Clyde explained, “There are rules for the selection of our family leader. It depends on the
contributions the member makes towards the Thisleton family. May I ask what Lacey has done for the family? With
me around, there is no way she can be the new leader. Do note that I am capable of acquiring the Third Military
Factory.”
Zeke asked doubtfully, “The Third Military Factory? Hasn’t it been bought by Connor Black?”
“That is right. I share a close relationship with him, so he has promised to gift it to me.”
Huh?
Zeke stared at Clyde with a piercing gaze.
No matter how close their relationship is, Conner will never gift him the military factory. After all, the military
factory is so valuable that one can form an empire with it. Conner and Clyde must have agreed on an under-the-

involved in this matter too?
Speaking of the devil.
Connor had rushed over after settling the paperwork for the purchase of the military factory.
He caught sight of Zeke the moment he entered the hall and turned flustered immediately.
Gosh! What the hell! Wasn’t he evicted and killed by his enemies already? Why is he still alive? Furthermore, why is
he in Eurasia?
He darted an inquiring gaze at Clyde.
But Clyde only shook his head. He had no idea as well.
Nonetheless, Connor gathered himself quickly.
So what if Zeke is still alive? Last time, I was only worried about Zeke abusing his authority as the Great Marshal to
snatch the Third Military Factory from me. But now that the military factory is in my hands, it doesn’t matter
whether Zeke is dead or alive. I can still use the factory to exchange for the Spirit Stone with Clyde.
