2025-01-02 23:00:41An air of quiet fury descended in the room, and for those couple seconds, it seemed like nothing was going to happen. As Lucia looked from Ezekiele to her uncle, Jeremy, the two men only had eyes on each other, staring each other down.
While there was fury on Jeremy’s face, Ezekiele had on a simple smile. Anyone just arriving at the scene would never know that he’d slapped someone just moments ago.
“You bastard!” Jeremy, having had enough of nursing his bruised cheek and pride, made to rush an attack at Ezekiele. He was only able to move a few seconds before he stopped again with wide, shocked eyes. Next to him, Lucia’s mouth fell open with a louder gasp.
The night had just begun, but Jeremy had already been slapped twice.

“Giacomo was here. He’s willing to take Lucia back as his wife!”At Anna’s announcement, Ezekiele’s face went blank. He turned to Lucia, and saw that quiet tears were already rolling down her face. But he couldn’t interrupt. Anna Rovings was very similar in terms of the family Ezekiele grew up in.Merely seeing her greedy face at the sight of the gifts told Ezekiele that she couldn’t care less if her child was hurt by their actions. As long as her needs were met, Anna would sell Lucia out.“Mom, what do you mean Giacomo is willing to take me back? I’m already married! How can I go back to him?” Lucia cried out.Even aft

The covering of the dark night followed Ezekiele as he went out of the Rovings house to the location Giacomo asked to meet at. In ample time, he arrived at a diner at the outskirts of town. At that late hour, the inside was bustling. As Ezekiele walked in, his eyes immediately fell on the table Giacomo was seated at the back of the room. Other than that, he took note of everyone else in order to ascertain whether or not there were any suspicious persons around. The other people seemed to be regular diners, but Ezekiele didn’t let his guard down. When he reached Giacomo’s table, he leisurely pushed back his coat and lowered himself onto the chair opposite with a carefree smile.It was a bit careless of him to be alone, Ezekiele thought as stared at the top of the other man’s head. Giacomo was typing into his phone with his head faced down, but Ezekiele knew he was aware of his presence. The silence stretched for some time before Ezekiele spoke.

“Will you be okay by yourself?” Ezekiele asked Lucia.A couple days had gone by since his meeting with Giacomo Hamilton, and so far, nothing out of the ordinary had happened, but it didn’t mean nothing wouldn’t. Ezekiele was on guard, but he didn’t expect Giacomo to try to attack Lucia or the steel mill. That would be acting careless.“Yes.” Lucia nodded. “The only thing I have to do here is supervise the workers. As you can see, it’s really busy out there.”And it was. Work had begun in full swing, meaning the steel mill was the most active Ezekiele had ever seen it. With its size, there were at least over three dozen workers already working, and more were still on their way.<

Upon hearing the charges that were brought against him, Ezekiele’s smile widened. He’d suspected that Giacomo would make a move soon, and sure enough, he was using Emilia to do his dirty work. And she looked very happy to be a part of it.Taking his eyes off of Emilia, Ezekiele looked at the unsmiling officer with the gun. “Be careful with that thing. You wouldn’t want to fire it by mistake, huh?”He acted like he didn’t hear, but the other police officer, who opened the door, then proceeded to put handcuffs around Ezekiele’s wrists. A bit overkill since he was already prepared to go with them, Ezekiele thought but didn’t argue.“Ezekiele Moretti, you’re being arrested under the suspicion of sexual and p

“Me and my mother demand that you give us an additional €300,000.”In Oakheart City, ten years ago, Ezekiele Moretti was disowned by his family. They cut off all ties with him and threw him into prison. Dejected and forsaken, Ezekiele had no choice but to serve a sentence for a crime he didn’t commit. Fast forward to years later, he came out and, with no one to turn to for help, started to rebuild his life. Starting from scratch, he painstakingly worked his way back up and was now a Great Marshal, respected and revered by many, with a massive amount of wealth. But the thing was, although people knew of the Great Marshal, not a lot of people could put a face to the name. Apart from his close contacts, everyone else knew him by the fake alias he created, Ezekiele Moretti. They had no idea of his real identity. Keeping it a secret was deliberate. Ezekiele’s plan? To pay back all the people who made an impact in his life, whether positively or negatively. Number one on the positive li

Ezekiele was only now realizing the mistake he almost made. And he had Emilia to thank for that. If it hadn’t been for Emilia and her mother asking for a higher dowry just now, Ezekiele would have married her without knowing the truth of the matter!For five years, he’d doted on Emilia and loved her dearly, but that had been a mistake. “Lucia, can you confirm that this pendant is yours?”Still looking terrified, and having a hand covering the spot on her face that Emilia slapped, Lucia was scared to look up at Ezekiele, but she responded with, “Ye-Yes…Yes, the jade pendant belongs to me.”Ezekiele’s eyes lingered on the trembling woman for a couple seconds before moving into action. Without much ado, he turned at Emilia, who was still seething, and it was like the veil covering his eyes had finally been removed. Exhaling a deep breath, he addressed Emilia and her mother. “I almost made a costly mistake, but thanks to you, Emilia, I didn’t. With that said, from this moment, I’m call

“Lucia! Lucia! your father just had a heart attack! Come to the hospital right now!”“What? Heart attack? Mother, calm down. What happened? How did Father have a heart attack?” Hearing those panic-stricken words from Lucia, Ezekiele quickly turned to look at her. “This is all because of you!” Anna yelled at her daughter through the phone.It happened like this. She and her husband, Daniele, had been hosting some friends for lunch. Naturally, they were bragging about how their daughter, Lucia, was going to marry Giacomo Hamiliton, a wealthy man, very soon, when a neighbor ran in suddenly asking if they’d seen the news. As it would turn out, their daughter had suddenly gotten married to a nobody! Unable to bear the news, Daniele slumped from heart failure. “We’re on the way to the hospital right now. Meet me there!”Before Lucia could respond to her mother, the older woman hung up. The phone fell from Lucia’s ear, hitting the floor of the car with a loud thud. “My father…My father

“Listen, Lucia, I can help your father, but you also need to do me a favor, don’t you think?”Lucia froze inwardly at Giacomo’s insinuation, but she didn’t make any reaction on the outside so as not to alert her mother. For the entire time they’d been engaged, which was less than six months, Giacomo had always made it clear what he wanted from her the most: her body. Lucia was fully convinced that the reason he remained engaged to her for so long was that. Confirming her words, Giacomo continued, “I’m at Palace Hotel for a meeting I have with clients in the evening. If you agree to spend the night with me, I’ll send a driver to pick you up.” The truth was Giacomo had no intention of helping Lucia’s father. It was as Lucia thought. Why he stayed engaged to her was not because her family had anything to offer him. Well, they had one thing, a pretty daughter who made Giacomo’s blood boil with want. He was never going to marry Lucia. Even now, after getting what he wanted from her, he

When Ezekiele returned to Lucia’s steel mill, he heard her laughing into the phone. He stood by the outer part of the office, listening.A couple seconds later, Lucia said, “Uncle Jeremy, thank you for getting the IGB off my back. I wouldn’t have been able to do it without your help.”Hearing these strange words, Ezekiele’s brows shot up. Who was it that got the IGB off her back? Her uncle? Impossible! Still, he didn’t react or alert her of his presence, and continued to listen to what else she had to say to the person on the phone.From where he stood, it was hard for Ezekiele to hear what the person on

“This is a VIP card. It gets you anything you want in Oakheart City.” Sensing Lucia’s confusion, Ezekiele explained. Understanding, Lucia’s mouth rounded into an oh. “How-?” Lucia had been about to ask Ezekiele how he got the card, when another voice spoke over her. “Why are you still here?” It was Anna who asked this question which was directed to Emilia. “My daughter agreed to provide you with the steel you need, so isn’t it about time you left?” The reason Anna had been silent for so long was because she had been trying to process what just happened. It was a lot to process, but Anna knew for a fact that Emilia wasn’t going to sit back quietly while a big fish got away from her, and she would try to sabotage Lucia. Anna took it upon herself to make sure that didn’t happen. “What?” Emilia sneered at the older woman. “I still have some questions to ask Ezekiele.”In response, Ezekiele was quick to shut that down. “Emilia, I believe I have answered all your questions, and I’m cert

CHAPTER NINE
Emilia had long since gotten to her feet and was now scheming. The business agreement with Giacomo didn’t seem to matter as much to her now. Her thoughts were solely on how to get Ezekiele to ditch Lucia and come back to her. “I will supply you with the steel you need at the regular price. There’s no need to pay me more than is due.”Emilia almost scoffed at those silly words from Lucia. If only she knew her eye was now on Ezekiele, then maybe she wouldn’t be so eager to help. Emilia didn’t appreciate Lucia’s kindness. In fact, she detested it. If someone treated Emilia the way she treated Lucia, there was no amount of begging that would make her accept her forgiveness. Was this how she seduced Ezekiele? With the kind act? Emilia wondered, eyeing Lucia with resentment. Lucia didn’t notice this look in Emilia’s eyes, but Ezekiele, who paid close attention to everything, saw it and knew what Emilia was thinking. He was about to burst her bubble. “Now that you’ve gotten what you want

CHAPTER EIGHT
Seeing the obvious defeat, Emilia didn’t need to be told twice to disappear from the scene. The confidence that had been present with her on the way to the steel mill disappeared immediately after seeing Ezekiele take two men down at once without breaking a sweat. The men Giacomo sent were all muscles and fat, with arms almost five times bigger than hers! So seeing Ezekeile take them out like they were nothing, fear went down Emilia’s spine. Maybe they were much weaker than they looked, Emilia tried to convince herself, but even then, Ezekiele took out ten men!As she drove away to a safe place, Emilia called Giacomo for the second time in two days. “So, how was it?” His sing-song, excited voice made Emilia forget her fear and flare up in anger. “How was it?” It was ridiculous just hearing that! “What kind of men did you send, huh? They’re so weak! Ten of them can’t take out a single man!”“Wait-Wait…” Giacomo seemed to be shuffling around. He was trying to find a quieter place. He
