Before Lacey and Zeke arrived home, Lacey received a call from her mother, Hannah.
“Lacey, are you trying to piss us off? Look what you've done today! You've brought so much disgrace upon our family. Your dad had a heart attack, and he's at Heartland Hospital now. Hurry over.”
Smack!
Thunderstruck, Lacey dropped her phone to the ground, her face paling.
She didn't think the incident today would be such a big blow to her father.
“Quick, to the hospital!” Lacey screamed her lungs out. “My dad had a heart attack.”
“Hmm? Okay.” Zeke made a sharp U-turn and drove toward the hospital.
Along the way, he made a call to Lone Wolf, who had picked him up at the airport previously. “Send me the Ammo Needle.”
Zeke was ready to save his future father-in-law and leave a good impression.
Besides Great Marshal, he had another identity—Needle God!
He had created the Ammo Needle that had saved many lives, from generals to civilians.
A puny heart attack was a piece of cake to him.
On the other end of the line, Lone Wolf's eyes blazed. “After five years, the Needle God is finally making his move again! I wonder who's the man worthy of the Great Marshal to personally take action.”
“Don't be such a snoop,” Zeke continued. “Also, for the Grand Comeback Ceremony three days later, arrange for the Clemons family to be servants.”
“Roger that,” Lone Wolf replied.
After hanging up the phone, Zeke realized Lacey was looking at him strangely.
“What are you doing?” Lacey asked.
“I'll save your father myself,” Zeke replied. “I've also arranged for Emily's family to be servants at the Grand Ceremony.”
Lacey laid dispiritedly against the passenger seat, sighing in disappointment.
Why didn't I find this man so boastful before?
Is the Great Marshal's Grand Ceremony something he can meddle with?
How ridiculous.
Not long after, both of them arrived at the hospital.
The scene at the hospital made Lacey feel as if a knife was stabbing her heart.
Her mother, Hannah, was kneeling to Emily, begging her for forgiveness while Jeremy and Scott's families stood by the side, saying nothing.
Emily looked proud and aloof, acting indifferent to Hannah's pleading.
Zeke frowned. “Why’s Emily here?”
Lacey got out of the car and darted toward Hannah. “Mom, get up. Why are you on your knees?”
Hannah wiped her tears and said, “You came just in time, Lacey. Quick, beg Emily to save your dad. He’s in the emergency room, but Emily's mother is the attending physician and refuses to save him.”
Both Madeleine and Daniel worked in that particular hospital. They appeared united outwardly but were divided at heart as they had recently been competing for the position of the Head of Department with each other.
