Lord Protector Novel

Zeke’s questions stumped Gideon.

The spectator joined in and went after Gideon.

“Apologize. He must apologize. He is the director of the department, yet he ignored the value of a life and almost killed a man. That is a very serious negligence of duty.”

“Apologizing is not enough. He must also be punished by the law.”

“Hmph. How is he the director when his skill is not even comparable to that of a regular doctor? Someone should really fire him.”

Gideon was in a dire situation then.

There were three groups of people that could truly hurt a public figure and servant. The first group was the members of the Discipline Inspection Commission, the second group was their superiors, and the third and most terrifying group was the angry citizens.

Water could float a boat, but it could also sink it, and the citizens were like water.

If he couldn’t appease the angry citizens immediately and things spiraled out of control, he could lose his job and might even be sentenced to jail.

He had been cornered and had to admit defeat.

Gideon put on an apologetic expression and said, “I am so sorry, Mr. Williams. My mistake at my job had caused so much trouble for you. I will learn from this experience and will never make such a mistake again in the future.”

At that moment, Gideon was utterly ashamed.

He had always been the one being apologized to by those working in the medical industry and had never had to do things the other way around.

After apologizing, he became too ashamed to stay there, so he kept his head down and left in a hurry.

Zeke immediately shot a look at Hadley, who was hiding among the crowd.

Hadley had already changed back into her regular outfit after beating Jeremy and the others up.

When she saw Zeke’s signal, she received the message immediately and started following after Gideon secretly.

Hadley was extremely annoyed then. “I am an international assassin from the renowned Necromancer Assassin Organization! And yet, here you are treating me like a freaking servant. This is too much.”

Zeke then turned to the reporters on site and stated, “You shared the news before verifying your information and had hurt the reputation of both Linton Group and Heartland Hospital. Shouldn’t you apologize too?”

The reporters had their heads down in shame.

However, no one apologized.

Eurasia’s law regarding the spread of fake news was not very comprehensive or developed, so Zeke couldn’t do anything to them even if they had shared fake news.

Zeke sneered and added, “Okay, fine. I wish you’d be able to remain stubborn until the very end.”

The reporters walked away in disgrace amid the criticism from the spectators.

Sharon Edwards and her team of reporters snuck to Zeke’s side before she whispered, “Mr. Williams, what should we do now? Should we do some PR for Linton Group?”

Zeke replied, “Not yet. Ms. Edwards, do you have anyone you can trust working with you? Have that person blend in with the other reporters.”

“If I’m right, those reporters will make a deal soon after, and I need that person to record the whole thing.”

Sharon Edwards tapped on the young man who was wearing a pair of spectacles and standing beside her. “Gordon, you will take this mission,” ordered Sharon.

Gordon nodded immediately and excitedly, “Got it. Don’t worry, the mission will be accomplished without a hitch.”

After that, he hurried over and blended in with the other reporters.
