“B-But I can't possibly move around with all these worms around me, right?” Lacey expressed her concern.
“Oh, that's not an issue! Take this, Lacey.” Dawn handed her a red embroidered pouch.
“What's this?” Lacey looked at the pouch puzzledly.
“It's the home for these colorful aegis worms. They will nest in the pouch and will only appear to protect you when
they sense trouble,” Dawn explained.
When she took out the pouch, all the aegis worms flew back into the pouch and settled down quietly in it.
Lacey gingerly took over the pouch and asked, “You said I'm going to meet with some trouble. What's that all
about?”
“Whitey told me that. It said it had a sense of foreboding that you would meet with some mishaps, and your life
might be endangered. That's all I know,” Dawn shared.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLacey turned to Zeke for his opinion.
Zeke was already communicating with White, asking it about the matter.
“Why did you send my wife those aegis worms, White?”
“What's with that tone of yours? Are you interrogating me?” White was displeased with Zeke's attitude. “If you're
not happy with the gift, then return them to me! Ungrateful brat!”
Zeke was not about to tolerate that and spoil White, so he sent over a telepathic whip, and White instantly cried out
in pain.
“Okay, okay, I'll spill, so stop that! I have a premonition your wife is going to get injured in the coming days, so I
spent the whole night breeding those aegis worms. They can protect her! It'll pain me to see such a pretty lady
die.”
“How accurate is your premonition?” Zeke asked.
“I'm right on most occasions, with at least eighty percent of my predictions coming true!”
“How do you know Lacey will be in trouble?”
“Progenitor has much better sixth sense than you humans, stupid!”
“What I don't understand is that you have no connection with Lacey. You barely met her. She's almost as good as a
stranger to you. How can you sense what is going to happen to a stranger?”
“Don't you know you and Lacey are opposites, and opposites attract? You're ultra male while she's ultra female.
That's why you're the perfect match and inseparable. Both of you are more deeply intertwined than you can
imagine. Since you're my master, that makes her my half-master, so it is only logical that I can sense threats
coming her way.”
“I see... Can you tell what kind of dangers she's going to encounter? Is it a car accident or something else?”
“That is something beyond me. Anyway, stay close to your wife over the next few weeks, and hopefully, you can

“Okay. I got it!”
Lacey did not let White's prediction affect her. She composed herself and calmly walked onto the stage to give her
opening speech.
“Hello, everyone! May I have your attention, please? As you know, Linton Group faced a big crisis, and we nearly
went into bankruptcy. Thankfully, our friends and family stood by us, and with their support, we weathered through
the storm. What doesn't kill us makes us stronger. We're back on our feet and I'm sure we'll go far. With Redwood
Capital coming in as our partner, we can definitely soar higher...”
Lacey's rousing speech was greeted with wild applause from the audience, and her staff was highly motivated.
However, toward the end of her speech, a commotion happened at the main entrance.
There was some disruptive clapping, and everyone turned to check it out.
When they saw the intruders, everyone frowned.
