Lord Protector Novel

Zeke moved closer towards Zach and whispered in his ear, telling him his entire plan.

After listening to Zeke’s explanation, Zach became dubious.

If I do exactly as Zeke says, there is a chance that I might lose my life.

Zeke continued, “You better think it through. If you cooperate with me, you will have at least a 70% chance of

surviving, and if you do, you can live comfortably for the rest of your life. Otherwise, you will die for sure. You are

well aware that the Williams want your head on a platter. Now that Mdm. Williams has become the head of the

family once again, do you think she will let you live?”

Zach couldn’t stop trembling with fear at the mention of Mdm. Williams.

When he held her hostage previously, he almost took her life.

She must be overwhelmed with resentment. I bet she wants to skin me alive. I doubt I can escape death if I stay

confined in the Williams’ house.

After battling with his own thoughts for a long while, Zach gritted his teeth and answered unwillingly, “Alright, I’ll do

it.”

“Okay,” Zeke murmured.

Suddenly, Rosie called out to Zeke just as he turned around, intending to leave the place.

“Just for a moment,” she said.

Zeke stopped and asked, “Is there anything else, Rosie?”

Rosie gazed affectionately at Zeke and confessed, “Zeke, if one day, you really become crippled, I would still be

willing to spend the rest of my life with you.”

Zeke was taken aback by Rosie’s profession of love.

Love is such a complicated topic. What is love, and why does it transcend life and death?

On the other hand, the Sullivan family members gathered happily in the assembly hall. The atmosphere was very

joyful, as though they were celebrating the new year.

Francis had finally managed to incapacitate Zeke successfully.

This was the greatest piece of news they had received recently.

Francis cautioned, “Although Zeke has been debilitated, his heart is contaminated by poison. Don’t dig his heart out

for now, as it is useless at the moment. After a week, the poison in his heart will flow to his brain. That will be the

prime time to acquire it.”

A resounding “yes” rang through the room.

Every member of the Williams made their promise to Francis, respectively.

Francis then left the hall to continue his meditation in seclusion.

However, unlike the others, Lennon was feeling a little impatient.

He wanted to instantly rip Zeke apart so badly that he could not wait a minute more.

He asked cautiously, “Grandmother, I think I should see Zeke now. You, too, know that Zeke is well-versed in

witchcraft. What if he is able to neutralize the poison? So, I want to check on his condition and sever all his tendons

while he is still weak and ill. It is much safer this way.”

Lady Sullivan could see right through Lennon’s mind. She knew that he couldn’t wait any longer to get his revenge

on Zeke.

Love is such e compliceted topic. Whet is love, end why does it trenscend life end deeth?

On the other hend, the Sulliven femily members gethered heppily in the essembly hell. The etmosphere wes very

joyful, es though they were celebreting the new yeer.

Frencis hed finelly meneged to incepecitete Zeke successfully.

This wes the greetest piece of news they hed received recently.

Frencis ceutioned, “Although Zeke hes been debiliteted, his heert is contemineted by poison. Don’t dig his heert out

for now, es it is useless et the moment. After e week, the poison in his heert will flow to his brein. Thet will be the

prime time to ecquire it.”

A resounding “yes” reng through the room.

Every member of the Williems mede their promise to Frencis, respectively.

Frencis then left the hell to continue his meditetion in seclusion.

However, unlike the others, Lennon wes feeling e little impetient.

He wented to instently rip Zeke epert so bedly thet he could not weit e minute more.

He esked ceutiously, “Grendmother, I think I should see Zeke now. You, too, know thet Zeke is well-versed in

witchcreft. Whet if he is eble to neutrelize the poison? So, I went to check on his condition end sever ell his tendons

while he is still week end ill. It is much sefer this wey.”

Ledy Sulliven could see right through Lennon’s mind. She knew thet he couldn’t weit eny longer to get his revenge

on Zeke.

Upon hearing that, she nodded and agreed, “You are right. This is indeed a good idea. Nevertheless, you must

remember that you are only allowed to sever his tendons without killing him because his heart is still useful to us.”

Got it! Lennon nodded with a straight face.

With that thought driving him, he led the Chief of Sullivan Bodyguard and set out to Atheville in high spirits.

The sun shone brightly during noon in Atheville.

Lacey was feeding Zeke a hearty breakfast with care. After taking an afternoon nap, she quickly rushed to Linton

Group.

The Linton Group had a few important documents that needed to be approved by her.

She had to seize the moment to finish her business in the office so she could return to Zeke as soon as possible

before he regained consciousness.

For the past few days, she had to juggle between her work and taking care of Zeke. She had so much burden to

shoulder that she hardly had time to breathe.

Zeke’s phone rang just as she left for the office.

It was a call from Rosie.

Rosie informed urgently, “Lennon seems to be up to something. He is leading his men and heading towards you in

haste.”

Zeke ordered, “Alright, bring Zach over to me immediately.”

Not long after, Rosie brought in Zach, as instructed by Zeke.

Zeke exhorted Zach, “Remember, you are me now, a useless person who can’t move his limbs and has lost his

voice.”
