Lord Protector Novel

Chapter 460

Zeke furrowed his brows.

Northern Xinjiang Military District is big. In addition, I don’t even know Caleb Castaneda. How is it possible for me to meet Caleb?

Dawn is obviously asking it on purpose.

In a flash, Zeke came to the realization that Dawn might be implicitly asking him to help promote and take care of Caleb Castaneda for she was too shy to say it directly.

Zeke nodded. “Mm, I will check on him since he’s your brother.”

Dawn was overjoyed as it was all over her face. “Thanks, Great... I mean brother.”

Initially, she was going to call him Great Marshal but decided to call him brother since Hades was around.

Dawn entered the hall in cheerful steps.

Looking at the back of her figure, Zeke fell into deep thought.

This young lady has come to Oakheart City for a long time, but I’ve never seen her family, neither did she ever mention about them.

Her family relationship must be complicated.

Zeke made up his mind to look into it.

Hades went up to him. “Mr. Williams, I shall leave now.”

“Would you like to stay for a cup of tea?” Zeke offered.

Hades giggled, “I’ve been ‘dead’ for a few days and now I really miss the tea from my Grand Imperial Tea House. I’m not used to drinking tea from other places.”

“Ok, I’ll let you leave then,” said Zeke.

“Mr. Williams, I have a question. Have you really arrested the assassin that poisoned me?” Hades couldn’t help asking.

Zeke nodded.

Hades continued, “You could have destroyed Logan Hugh, so why are you letting him off this time?”

“It’s simple. It won’t do me any good if he dies now.” Zeke helped to clear his doubts. Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Hades was intrigued. “Then when should he die to be advantageous to you?”

Hades needed to be completely clear about this.

If Logan were still alive, that meant his life would be in danger.

Logan hated betrayal the most. He would seek revenge against Hades at all costs until he took his last

breath for stabbing Logan in the back.

“I heard Logan legally owns a number of companies.” Zeke smiled wryly as he continued, “His companies will be escheated once he’s behind the bars. He’ll die the day when he gives up on his companies.”

Hades was doubtful. “But I know Logan. He will never give up on his companies.”

“Well then... If he insists on doing things the hard way, we’ll take it with a strong hand. After all, we’re experts in doing this.” Zeke gave an indifferent shrug.

Hades and Eclipse traded glances and then burst out laughing, “Well said!”

“We shall anticipate Mr. Williams’ Linton Group to grow.”

“Oh, Mr. Williams, I have a lot of experience in doing business. I think it’s important to focus on certain fields of business instead of engaging in a wide range of business trading.”

“The business under Linton Group covers several business sectors which might hinder the long-term development of the company.”

Zeke sighed in exasperation. “There’s nothing I can do, and I could only blame my rivals for that.”

Hades and Eclipse were confused for a second, but then their laughter grew louder.

That’s true. Except for the small steel mill, all other assets under Linton Group were acquired by Mr. Williams out of the hands of his business rivals.

His “rivals”, if they were to be considered one, were indeed the ones to be blamed for the scattered businesses under Linton Group.

Their businesses covered diverse industries.

“One last question,” Hades kept a straight face and said, “I’m actually no longer in my prime to manage the Grand Imperial Tea House. I’m wondering if you’re interested in my tea house? If you are, then I can transfer a portion of my share or even let you take over the entire tea house.”

It was a well-known fact that the Grand Imperial Tea House was the symbol of authority in the entire Rivermouth underworld forces.

Hades meant to transfer part of or whole ownership of the Rivermouth underworld forces to Zeke.
