All this while, grandpa had favoured the families of Uncle Jeremy and Uncle Scott. He has always looked down on dad.

To change her family's situation, Lacey had worked hard and gone through hardships to find this steel mill with some measure of achievement.

Every year, she was the one who brought in the most money for the Hinton family.

She had never thought that all her sacrifices could not compare to the two uncles' sweet talk.

And now, to merely climb the social ladder, the Hinton family would sacrifice her personal happiness.

A family like the Hinton family was not worth her trying to protect it.

Lacey laughed manically and scolded them, "Stop it, all of you!"

"You evil beast, how dare you talk to your elders like this..." Uncle Jeremy reprimanded angrily.

Suddenly, Lacey picked up a pair of scissors and aimed it at her throat. "Get out, give me some peace and quiet, or else, I'll kill myself in front of you all."

Instantly, there was silence.

Hannah Lawson felt her body give way. She collapsed on the floor, crying. "Lacey, are you trying to take away my life? Please put down the scissors. Just put it down. If anything happens to you, I cannot go on living."

Lacey sighed, "Mom, all of you go out. Grant me some peace and quiet. Leave me alone."

Daniel Hinton went wild. He wiped the cold sweat from his brow before bellowing, "Get out, all of you! If anything happens to my daughter, I'll kill you all."

Jackson Hamilton, who had been silent all this while, spoke, "Lacey, I know that at this point, you don't realize the truth. Let me tell you about the real situation. Last night, I sent men to search for the Fearsome Foursome, but they were nowhere to be found. This means they've murdered someone and have run away to escape the law. All these points to the fact that Zeke is dead. Besides that, Darren Collins will not let any of your family members escape. If I don't help, the whole Hinton Family will be buried together with you. You'd better think about your choices carefully." Locey felt totolly disoppointed when she wotched the scene in front of her.
