Lord Protector Novel

“What?” Jason stopped weeping and asked Robert curiously, “Dad, how do you plan to take revenge? You had the chance just now, so why did you let him go?”

“I already told you; I was being expedient. Cooperating with them is also part of my plan, and they walked straight into my trap. They're already sitting ducks, so there's no need to worry about them escaping.”

Jason's eyes lit up from the excitement. “Really? That's marvelous! Dad, when they fall into our trap, I want the two girls to myself. Also, spare Zeke's life. I'll torture him to death with my own hands.”

“Don't worry about it.” Robert patted Jason on the shoulder. “You should go to the hospital to recuperate. Leave the trap to me.”

“Okay!” Jason nodded eagerly. “Dad, make sure nothing goes wrong. You mustn't let them escape. They must be reeled in as soon as possible. I can't wait any longer!”

“Yes, my son.”

After that, Jason was sent to the hospital to have his wounds treated.

Robert closed the door of the office and looked at Wendy solemnly.

Within that short moment, Wendy had sat down in the president's chair and kicked her feet up on the desk leisurely.

Unexpectedly, Robert wasn't agitated by her actions. Instead, he asked in a soft voice, “Ms. Thompson, when will you make your move? You saw with your own eyes how much my son and I suffered. I can't bear it any longer! If Zeke doesn't die, I won't be able to hold my head high ever again!”

He no longer addressed her as “Wendy” but as “Ms. Thompson.”

Wendy said indifferently, “Don't worry. Those two girls are now under my control and have already become my loyal puppets. However, now is not the time yet. I'll inform my superiors to act as soon as possible.”

“Okay!” Robert clenched his fists. “Zeke, your days are numbered! In a few days, I'll make you beg for death!”

Zeke and the others lived a peaceful life in the next few days.

Not only did Robert not come to trouble them any further, he even actively and eagerly supported their business collaboration.

All of Zeke's worries had already disappeared from his mind. Thus, he decided to head for Mount Kush as soon as possible.

He couldn't delay the trip any longer.

Gathering Lacey, Nancy, and Dawn together, he told them his plans.

“Dawn, Nancy, after the collaboration arrangements with United Group is complete, return to Atheville with Lacey promptly. I have some matters to handle, so I can't go with all of you.”

Dawn looked disappointed. “Zeke, where are you going?”

Zeke took a deep breath and said, “I'm going to Mount Kush for something very important, and it's imperative that I not delay it any longer.”

“Zeke, can't you go tomorrow?” Dawn asked.

“Why?” Zeke was puzzled.

“The four of us are going shopping in the afternoon, and we need one more person to help carry the bags. I think you're most suited for this task.”

Zeke was rendered speechless.
