Lord Protector Novel

Chapter 452

With a look of disdain, Zeke said, “I know you’re just the dog with a master behind the scenes. But your master has yet to show themselves. They don’t have the guts to go against me in public. They’re nothing but a spineless worm.”

Logan snarled, “Preposterous! How dare you insult them. Back then, they did not show themselves because you’re not worth their time, not from fear. It’s a waste of their time to deal with you directly, but it has changed. You have proven your capability. Moreover, you’ve insulted them today. I’m sure they will crush you personally. Expect your demise. Men, we’ll take our leaves now.”

He was about to recall his men when Zeke stopped him. “Hold on. You’ve brought so many men to mess up my event today, and you’ve bullied my people. How can you leave without apologizing?”

Logan scoffed, “Apology? My ass! I’m from the military, and you’re from the underworld. You can never be anything in front of me. You’re asking the great to apologize to the lowly. Dream on.”

“The great and the lowly. Let me tell you this today. Everyone has to behave on my turf. I don’t care who you are. In here, I am God.”

The crowd was silent.

He’s beyond maniacal.

For a man who was involved in the underworld, he should be avoiding government officials like Logan at all costs. I can’t believe that he’s forcing Hugh to call him ‘Uncle’.

Even if he does, will Williams dare to respond?

Lacey whispered, “Zeke, forget it. It’s tough for us to prove our innocence. Let’s not make things worse.”

Zeke replied firmly, “No way. I’m the only one allowed to bully you. No outsiders can do this. He must say ‘uncle’ today.”

Logan cackled, “Fantastic! I want to see what you will do if I refuse to do as you say. Will you kill me?”

That was exactly what he wanted.

All he needed was to charge Zeke with police assault. It would guarantee jail time.

Suddenly, Zeke turned to Hades. “Hades, according to what I know, there are traces of poison in the residue of your tonic. If there’s poison in it, why aren’t you dead?”

Hades answered, “I saw someone spiking it. That’s why I didn’t drink it.”

Zeke inquired, “Oh? Who was it?”

Hades replied, “Someone from the Necromancer Assassin Organization.”

“You have a grudge against someone from the Necromancer Assassin Organization?” Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Hades shook his head.

Zeke continued, “That means someone asked them to poison your tonic. Do you know who that is?”

Hades shook his head again. “That man was strong. I couldn’t stop him from escaping. Naturally, I couldn’t ask who was the mastermind.”

Zeke smiled. “The world is only so big. Where can he escape to?”

At that, he took out his phone and made a call. “Have you gotten the confession yet? Hm? Does the man refuse to say anything? That’s normal. Without a strong will, he wouldn’t have joined the Necromancer Assassin Organization. Keep interrogating him. If you still can’t get an answer, hand him over to the military. I heard that there’s a place called Wolf’s Den in the military where no one can keep their secrets to themselves.”
