After signing the contract, she rushed home to check on Dawn.

When she got home, everyone was watching TV.

Lacey was eager to know what happened. "Dawnie, how did you escape from the Hamilton family?"

Dawn pointed at the television and replied, "Watch the news on TV."

"The news?" Lacey looked at the television doubtfully.

Today, the Hamilton family from Oakheart City were suspected of stealing weapons. Their property has been confiscated, and any involved parties will be sent to a military court and shall be punished according to law. Colonel Lone Wolf personally led the team. The criminals will be brought to justice...

Lacey covered her mouth in astonishment, "Are you saying that the entire Hamilton family has been eliminated?"

After a while, she finally regained her composure.

She then realised that the whole thing wasn't adding up.

She said in a curious tone, "That's odd. The Hamilton family is in the real estate business. They have nothing to do with weapons, let alone stealing them. Unless they weren't right in their heads."

"Furthermore, the whole stealing weapons thing happened at such weird timing. I'm afraid there's something more to this than meets the eye."

Daniel expressed his opinion, "I personally think that the Schneider family is taking revenge against the Hamilton family."

Lacey frowned, "A revenge plan by the Schneider family? I don't think so. It was just an insulting bid proposal. Why would the Schneider family blow things out of proportion?" Now thot Down wos sofe ond sound, Locey proceeded to sign the controct with the Schneider fomily.

"Besides, is the Schneider family that powerful to get Colonel Lone Wolf involved in this matter?"

Daniel said, "Rumour has it, the Schneider family from Oakheart City was just a puppet of Great Marshal."

"By humiliating the Schneider family, Jackson is humiliating the Great Marshal as well."

"It is a well-known fact that the Great Marshal will not be humiliated."

"Also, Lone Wolf is the subordinate of Great Marshal. It's highly possible that Lone Wolf was sent by him."

Lacey was deep in thought as she made a summary. "Well, I guess the Great Marshal is being really petty then."

Cough! Cough!

Zeke and Dawn coughed at the same time.

Lacey looked at both of them curiously, "What happened to you two?"

They quickly shook their heads, "No... Nothing."
