Lord Protector Novel

Joshua wiped a tear as he carried on with his story. “A few days later, Helen re-emerged with a will, saying that Frederick had agreed to give her all of the Walters family’s businesses. That will obviously wasn’t written by Frederick, so we refused and wanted to sue her. But who would’ve thought that she’d join forces with the other three prominent families? Together, they stopped us from bringing the lawsuit and conquered the Walters family. They tore my clan apart and rose via their connections. That’s how the four major households of today came about. All they left us was a place here in Octagon Row. Sigh... All this while, I’ve suspected Helen to be involved in the death of my son!”

Zeke and Sole Wolf gasped in shock.

If they weren’t mistaken, the document Hunting Wolf had held onto was none other than the urgent letter from Paul Hunt.

That letter had contained a message from the Boss.

“Then who was Helen Zelly back then, Mr. Joshua?” Zeke hurriedly asked.

“Sigh... She was just a wild, unchaste woman. I didn’t approve of their marriage, but Frederick was hopelessly in love with her.”

Zeke fell deep into thought.

How could a powerless harlot like that have summoned the three other prominent clans to help her take down the Walters family?

It had to be because his fiancé showed them an urgent letter. They probably helped her after realizing how valuable the letter was.

“Who were the three families, Mr. Walters?” asked Zeke.

“They were the Count, Jenkins and Moore clans!”

“Moore? Xander Moore’s clan?”

Joshua nodded. “That’s right.”

Zeke gnashed his teeth together. “Xander Moore! As if killing my friend isn’t enough, now that b******d is even after his family? Fine. I’ll start with the Moore family then. By the way, Mr. Walters, have you seen the document Frederick was holding after he died? Do you know where it is now?”

“I haven’t. I’m a hundred percent sure Helen has taken it. I don’t even know what was written in it. Was it so important that my son had to guard it with his life?”

“Don’t worry, Mr. Walters,” Zeke assured him. “I’m going to make the four major households kill themselves in front of Frederick’s grave before the anniversary of his death.”

The Walters family spaced out for a moment.

Can this young man really shake up the four major households of Atheville?

If the four clans were to join forces, they might probably even be able to take down the two most powerful families in the city.

Zeke said to Sole Wolf, “Bring me all the details of the four major households, especially Helen Zelly’s. We’re going to pay each of the major households a visit.”

Sole Wolf was furious too. “Roger.”
