Sage and her family exchanged glances, looking completely nonplussed.
Zeke was boasting yet again.
The Walters family had never once recognized martyr certificates. They only recognized the contributions made to
their family.
Could he possibly still offer any notable contributions to the Walters family?
Outside the doors of the Walters’ residence, Peter repeatedly reminded Joseph, “Mr. Zelly, the application
documents are very important. They have the power to decide the fate of the Walters. Please make sure to get the
mayor’s approval. As for the funds, name a price below a million.”
One million was the Walters’ limit.
Peter was still slightly uncertain.
Truth be told, he and Mr. Murphy only had a few brief exchanges in the past; they weren’t very well acquainted with
each other.
Mr. Murphy had only accepted his invitation out of respect for his sister, Helen.
That was why Peter wasn’t sure if the man would agree to this request.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, certain things are better kept to himself.
He patted his chest as a gesture of guarantee. “Mr. Walters, don’t worry. Just leave everything to me, I’ll cover the
funds. One million is only my pocket money of half a month.”
Peter was delighted. “I’m relieved to hear that. Once this matter is over and done with, we can officially start
discussing your marriage to Natalie.”
Natalie shyly lowered her head. “Grandpa, what are you talking about? Mr. Zelly and I have only known each other
for a short while.”
Upon seeing Natalie’s blushing appearance, the Walters burst into laughter.
Before long, an Audi A6L drove towards them.
Sitting in the car was none other than the mayor, Mr. Murphy.
Joseph didn’t actually have the power to invite him over.
However, Joseph’s sister, Helen, was quite influential in the business world.
Besides, he just happened to be passing by the area, so he thought he might as well do Joseph a favor.
Of course, he knew Joseph inviting him over to the Walters’ residence had something to do with the application
documents.
However, he would never slacken on the review criteria of the application for the sake of Joseph.
Joseph Zelly wasn’t worthy enough.
Right before the Audi came to a halt, Mr. Murphy noticed a Hongqi L5 limousine parked by the gates of the Walters’
residence.
Huh? What’s going on?
Is there some big shot here to visit the Walters?
Only individuals of at least a colonel ranking were qualified to travel in a vehicle like this. Even Mr. Murphy himself
wasn’t qualified to ride in one.
He glanced towards the small crowd gathered outside but didn’t notice any prominent figures.
Joseph Zelly was the only one who could possibly be qualified enough.
Thus, he was a hundred percent sure Joseph was the one who rode in it.
It seems like I have greatly underestimated Joseph Zelly.
He must be powerful beyond imagination. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be qualified to ride in this kind of vehicle.
I must try to get on his good side.
The moment the car stopped; the Walters instantly came up to welcome him with enthusiastic smiles plastered on

Peter personally opened the car door for him, wearing the broadest smile of them all. “Welcome, Mr. Murphy! We
are honored to have you as our guest!”
He turned to his granddaughter and ordered, “Natalie, hurry up and make the preparations. Let’s offer Mr. Murphy
the best hospitality possible.”
“Oh, yes. I’ll get right to it,” Natalie swiftly replied.
Unexpectedly, Mr. Murphy ignored Peter and enthusiastically shook Joseph’s hand.
“Mr. Zelly, it’s been a long time. Haha!” He continued, “You look even better than you did before; sophisticated and
steady.”
The Walters were shocked.
Mr. Zelly is too humble.
He doesn’t just know Mr. Murphy personally. In fact, he’s so familiar with him that they’re practically brothers.
Faced with Mr. Murphy’s overly warm greeting, Joseph was slightly dazed.
What’s going on? Mr. Murphy has always ignored me in the past, so why’s he so friendly to me all of a sudden?
He’s giving me way too much respect.
