Lord Protector Novel

Chapter 564

Susan’s eyes sparkled as she stared at Zeke. “Mr. Williams, does this mean you already have a countermeasure in place?”

“When you readily signed the contract, were you already planning to turn their plan against them?”

“So, what is our next step?”

Zeke reminded, “Didn’t you say you wanted to give Hadley a treat to thank her? Let’s go have dinner first.”

Honestly, he didn’t want to attend the dinner as he preferred to spend time at home with his wife.

But he was well aware of how desperate Hadley was. If he weren’t there, Susan would likely be taken advantage of by her.

He didn’t have a choice but to go with Susan to protect her.

Susan felt ecstatic. “Alright, Mr. Williams.”

She really didn’t want to part ways with Zeke as she enjoyed being with him a lot.

When Zeke suggested he would like to go with her, it made her thought to herself, is he hinting that he want to be together with me?”

That would be wonderful!

The famous beauty of Oakheart City started to swoon and giggle to herself. This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.

Hadley had reserved a private room at the Grand Millennium Hotel.

The thought of Susan’s drunk look simply poured oil onto her burning lust.

But when she saw Zeke joining them, disappointment filled her face.

Why is this irritating Grandmaster here, all he does is spoil my plan.

With him around, there was no way she could lay her hands on Susan.

Hmm, that’s right. I should get Zeke drunk, so drunk that he would be unconscious.

With that plan in mind, she asked for the hardest liquor from the front desk and the largest mugs they could find.

When Zeke saw the large liquor mugs, he smiled at Hadley knowingly. “Ms. Murphy, are you really going to use the mugs to drink?”

Hadley replied, “What? Are you afraid?”

“I’m not even afraid as a girl. Isn’t it disgraceful for you to be scared as a man?”

Zeke waved his hands in denial. “No, you misunderstood me. What I meant was these mugs are too small.”

“Why don’t we just drink from the bottle instead?”

Hadley was ecstatic. “Sure. You do know how to live life in the fast lane. I’m impressed.”

“Bottoms up!”

Susan was stunned.

Hadley was just a svelte-looking girl who was now downing hard liquor from the bottle.

She seemed to be more masculine than most men.

After half an hour...

Both Zeke and Hadley had downed two bottles of liquor each. While Susan only drank two glasses.

Hadley’s body was swooning as if she was going to fall anytime.

Finally, she couldn’t keep herself together and sprawled on the table with a bang. It was lights out for her.

Before she fainted, she looked at Susan in defiance.

I really can’t accept this. After all my careful planning, I still lost to Zeke, that damn animal!

When she glanced at Zeke, he was still steady as a rock and did not have the slightest indication that

he was drunk at all.

Meanwhile, Zeke took Hadley’s credit card and cigarettes out of her pocket.

Slotting the cigarettes into his own pocket, he handed the credit card to Susan. “Susan, please use her card to settle the bill later.”

“I’m going back first. Since you stay nearby, you can take a cab home.”

When she heard him say that she felt neglected.

How could he bring himself to let a girl like me take a cab home, especially after I had drank some wine.

Is this how he reciprocates my feelings for him?

The wine she drank helped amplify what she was feeling.

She couldn’t maintain her composure and tears started to well up in her eyes.

Zeke suddenly felt distraught as he was most afraid of a woman crying.

He quickly comforted her. “Susan, why are you crying?”

Looking at him with her reddened eyes, Susan became more upset. How can you not even know why I’m crying?

No, I have to confess my feelings. At the very least I need to let him know what I feel.
