Lord Protector Novel

These men were armed and in uniform; they were armed police.

There were over fifty of them.

The leader was Logan Hugh.

He shouted, “The armed police are here on official duty. Please cooperate with us. No one should move from their places now. The first squad, cover the left. The second squad, cover the right. Third squad, block all exits. Fourth squad, come with me to arrest the suspect.”

The sudden appearance of the armed police frightened the guests of the ceremony. None dared to move from their seats.

Lacey and Daniel exchanged a look of terror.

If they were not wrong, Logan must be the man Emily said they had crossed.

Logan had gone against them several times in the past, but he had failed each time. Lacey had not been expecting him to try the same thing again so soon.

What will he accuse us of this time?

Will we be able to survive this?

After all, Zeke was the one to defeat him in the past, but now, he was not by their sides.

Evan was calm as he said in a placid tone, “Officer Hugh, you’ve come uninvited, and you’ve surrounded my venue without permission. Don’t you think you need to give me an explanation at the very least?”

Logan did not bother being polite with Evan as he said, “What’s wrong? Do I need to report my confidential tasks to you? It’s best that you do nothing stupid, or I’ll arrest you on charges of disrupting the police.”

Evan said, “Very well. I hope you will not regret your actions.”

Logan sneered, “With those words of yours, I’ll charge you with threatening the police. Men, arrest Evan Schneider right now.”

Two officers immediately restrained Evan.

Lacey panicked.

She knew Logan was most likely coming after her family.

She was upset that it had involved Evan.

She was about to beg them to spare Evan when the latter shot her a look, signaling to her not to intervene.

With no other options, Lacey swallowed her words back down her throat.

Logan demanded, “Who is Daniel Hinton? Show yourself.”

Daniel’s heart was pounding from anxiety, but he straightened his back and said, “I am.”

Logan continued, “We received a tip saying that you’ve committed a murder. Please cooperate with us with the investigation back at the station.”

Daniel immediately refuted, “This is ridiculous, absolutely ridiculous. I’m a doctor. I save lives. Why would I kill people?”

Logan replied, “I know you’re a doctor. Someone reported you abused your power and intentionally caused medical malpractice. You’re an embarrassment to doctors. You’re not unfit to be one.”
