Lord Protector Novel

A beauty paired with an old disabled man. Zeke was sure no love was involved in the wedding.

Eleanor sighed, “Sage looks the prettiest she’s ever had today.”

Joshua agreed, “Yes. What a pity... Forget it. As long as our daughter is happy, I’m alright with it.”

Sage could be seen glancing at the door every once in a while with an anticipating look on her face.

However, the more she hoped, the more disappointed she was.

“Why aren’t Mom and Dad here yet?” Sage frowned.

Xander replied, “It’s about time for us to begin the wedding.”

“Let’s wait for a while longer,” Sage said, “My parents aren’t here yet.”

“Why should we wait?” Xander huffed impatiently, “If they’re not here by now, it means the wedding isn’t that important to them. If we delay this any longer, we’ll cross the guests.”

“But...” Sage was reluctant to move.

“No ‘but’s,” Xander threatened, “Do you still want to treat your father of his illness?”

Fear flashed past Sage’s eyes, and she relented.

Happy music played on Xander’s order, and the host made his way up the stage.

After an introduction, the host shouted, “Now, let us welcome the bride and groom!”

Swish!

The spotlights turned toward the bride and groom.

The crowd turned to look at them.
The crowd turned to look at them.

The two were about to step on stage when Xander looked at Sage’s hair. He was upset. “Why are you still wearing this damn clip? I’ve told you to take it off so many times.”

Sage quickly explained, “This is our family’s heirloom. It’s a tradition. My grandmother handed this to my mother, and my mother handed it to me. I have to wear it on my wedding day.”

“I told you to take it off.” Anger flashed across Xander’s eyes.

However, this time, Sage refused to give in to his orders.

In the end, she only infuriated Xander. In front of the entire crowd, he grabbed her hair and yanked the clip off before throwing it onto the ground.

“Ah!”

Xander’s actions had been too rough. He had hurt her.

F**k!

Sole Wolf subconsciously jumped to his feet and was about to grab his gun from its holster.

Sage’s parents had widened their eyes at the sight. Their tears began to fall.

Zeke swiftly placed his hand over Sole Wolf’s and commanded, “Sit down. Remember what I’ve told you. Remember what’s going on.”

Sole Wolf sat back down with reddened eyes and gritted teeth.

Xander and Sage walked onto the stage together.

Upon seeing them, everyone engaged in a discussion about the odd couple. They were either mocking the duo or expressing their pity.



“It’s a real-life version of Beauty and the Beast.”

“It’s such a waste for a beautiful woman like her to marry a useless man like Xander.”
