Lord Protector Novel

Chapter 582

Zeke Williams scoffed coldly. “Mr. Wood, that’s a false accusation you have made there. Your bodyguard was the one who started attacking first. I merely defended myself. You’re the one to blame for having such weak men. I didn’t attack any civil servants.”

Wilson Hunt was furious. “Bullsh*t. My bodyguard was simply doing his job. You were the one who refused to cooperate and retaliated without being provoked. You attacked first!”

Harvey and the others started to back Wilson up.

“Yeah! Mr. Hunt, we’ll be the eyewitnesses! He attacked first!”

“Hmph. Zeke Williams, I’m warning you: you’d better not retaliate any further. You can look down on us all you want, but you can’t look down on the law. Quick! Someone handcuff him before he hurts us.”

Zeke sighed nonchalantly. “Birds of a feather really flock together. Don’t you have a conscience? You don’t deserve to be officials.”

Wilson was even angrier. “How dare you falsely accuse us of such things? You just landed yourself in deeper trouble! Harvey, call the police now. Then we can get a hold of him.”

“Yes, I’m on it!” Harvey agreed frantically. He took his phone out of his pocket and started dialing the emergency number.

Susan and the others were feeling hopeless.

They were done for. After getting on the bad side of so many important figures, they would definitely

get in trouble even if they were innocent.

Right at that moment, the door to the workshop opened and a voice piped up angrily, “What’s going on here?”

The crowd turned toward the source of the noise.

It was the mayor of Oakheart City!

Why is Mayor Middleton here?

Wilson and the others came to a conclusion very quickly.

Mr. Middleton had probably seen all the cars parked in front of Reagan Pharmaceutical and had gone in to see what was going on.

Wilson quickly walked toward him. “Mr. Middleton, what are you doing here? There’s someone extremely dangerous here and I have reason to believe that he’s a terrorist. Don’t come in; you might get hurt. I’ll deal with this, so just relax.”

Harvey and the others agreed.

“Yeah, Mr. Middleton, don’t come in. He might hurt you.”

“He broke Harry’s leg just because they had a little disagreement. He’s aggressive and dangerous. He really could hurt you.”

“He’s also super strong! He might destroy us!”

Susan and the others were getting chills at their claims.

How could Wilson brand Zeke a terrorist?

A terrorist! That is as punishable a crime as a murderer!

With so many officials present, Zeke had no way of shaking off his label of being a terrorist even though he was innocent.

Zeke Williams could beat Jacob and he could beat Harvey, but could he deal with Mr. Middleton?

That was impossible.

The situation had completely gone out of control.

Mr. Middleton was instantly tense. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

He had come here because Zeke Williams had told him that a drug cartel was possibly operating here.

Everyone involved in this line of business couldn’t possibly have the cleanest hands, either so it didn’t seem strange that there could be a terrorist in their midst.

He fell for it and commanded, “What are you all waiting for? Call the police and get them to handle it!”

Harvey quickly responded, “Mr. Middleton, I’ve already contacted them. They’re on their way.”

Mr. Middleton sighed in relief. “Good, that’s good. It’s no small feat to take down a terrorist. Your diligence will be rewarded handsomely.”

Susan and the others were now feeling extra hopeless.

Mr. Middleton sounded as if he was a part of their cohort.

Susan was still feeling indignant about everything and tried to defend Zeke. “Mr. Middleton, please hear our side of the story-”

Wilson cut her off. “Be quiet. Why are you defending the terrorist? For all we know, you might be in cahoots with him! You two! Seize Zeke Williams!”

Wilson commanded his men.
