Lord Protector Novel

The slum district behind the Royal Casino would cost at least 50 million alone, and another 500 million to develop.

It was quite generous of Robert to practically give away 500 million.

However, the amount was only a drop in the bucket for someone like Robert.

Meanwhile, in the hospital.

Zeke asked Sole Wolf and the others to leave after he was done briefing them.

He made his way inside the living room and noticed that Nancy, Lacey, and Dawn were busy in the kitchen.

They were quite hungry, especially after being awoken abruptly in the middle of the night.

Zeke was flabbergasted at their change in mood.

They were just on the brink of death moments ago because of Edmund, and yet the three women did not seem troubled by the fact and even had the mood to prepare supper.

How carefree are these three?

Of course, they had faith in Zeke.

As long as he was around, they knew that they would be safe and sound.

Noticing that Zeke was in the living room, Dawn asked, “Zeke, was the guy sent by Robert?”

Zeke nodded his head.

Dawn gritted her teeth in response. “I knew that man was up to no good.”

“I know, right? I was just wondering why he would think of collaborating with us, and even tried to give us so much benefit! It was so devious of him to try and harm us!” Nancy said in a huff as she carried a steaming plate out of the kitchen.

“Zeke, why don't you just reveal your identity to him and capture Robert? I really can't live in peace knowing that the man is still well and alive.”

Zeke shook his head. “Now is not the time to get rid of Robert just yet. There is someone behind him. I plan on using Robert to lure the mastermind out from behind the scenes. Robert and Adrian both would have to pay dearly for what they've done then.”

“Zeke, could you let me deal with Robert and Jason then? I really want to beat them up. They're scumbags!” Dawn asked.

Zeke gladly agreed to her request.

Lacey then served a plate of spaghetti and said, “Zeke, eat it while it's still hot.”

Zeke was famished. The sight of the spaghetti increased his appetite as he wolfed down the food.

Dawn teased her sister. “Lacey, look how hungry Zeke is. Do you let him go hungry all the time? Haha!”

Nancy and Dawn broke into a chuckle after exchanging glances with each other.

Lacey was stumped and did not get the undertone of what Dawn was implying.

“What's so funny about that?”

Dawn and Nancy laughed even harder at her response.

Zeke's face was tinged red. He continued to eat his spaghetti as he understood what Dawn was trying to say.
