Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 1636

Ignoring the pain, she questioned with a trembling voice, “What are you doing here? I... I have already paid you the protection money.”

Hound and his men barged into the room. “We're worried that you would feel lonely at home. Therefore, we have decided to accompany you here. Go and make some coffee for us before we start having fun with you. Hahaha!”

The hearty laugh sent a chill down Lacey's spine.

“Oh no, Missy.” Lacey rushed into the room to protect Missy.

At that moment, Missy was eating the food the vendors gave earlier.

When she saw Hound and his men, she couldn't help but shudder in fear.

They had left her with a traumatizing experience.

Hound glared at Missy. “What are you staring at? You're a b*stard that only deserves to eat dog food!”

Missy was defiant. “You're bad people. Please leave my home, or I will call the police.”

“Hahaha!”

Hunt and his men laughed haughtily. “The police? Why don't you give it a try? The entire police station eats out of my hands.”

When Missy was about to call the police with her phone, Hound stormed forward to teach her a lesson.

At the crucial moment, Lacey dashed in, hugged Missy, and apologized to Hound.

“Hound, I'm sorry. The child doesn't know the rules. Please don't hold it against her. I'll make coffee for you right away!”

With that said, Lacey carried Missy out. “Missy, go over to our lady neighbor's house to play. I have something to discuss with this man.”

Hound quickly saw through Lacey's plan.

After giving his men a look, they stopped Lacey and Missy at once.

“The child is still so young. How can you let her go out alone? What if she gets herself lost? You should go ahead and make coffee. We will help you keep an eye on her.”

“Erm...” Lacey hesitated.

Hound barked, “What's wrong? Don't you trust us? Do you think gangsters like us will hurt kids?”

Cognizant that she didn't have a choice, Lacey resigned herself to putting Missy down.

Missy's just a kid. I guess Hound and his men probably aren't cruel enough to harm children.

After that, she hurried off to make coffee.

The moment she returned, her heart skipped a beat.

Hound and his men had Missy surrounded.

In fact, one of them was pointing to Missy's head with a dagger.

Crash!

Lacey dropped the coffee cups onto the ground.

Lacey pleaded in desperation, “Hound, what are you trying to do? Please, I beg of you... Please release Missy. She's still young. I beg you not to hurt her.”

Since her husband, Zeke, was missing in action, Missy had become her only pillar of support.

If anything were to happen to Missy, Lacey felt that she would be better off dead.

Hound remarked coldly, “Who says we are trying to harm her? We're just playing a game with her. Let's see what she will do after her mommy disappears.”

Lacey was stumped. What does that mean?

Hound threw Lacey a rope. “Don't worry. Once you disappear, we will send Missy to an orphanage. We won't let her wander on the streets.”

After hearing that, Lacey shuddered in fear.

Hound and his men are trying to use Missy to make me give in. They are nothing but scum!

Lacey's voice quavered violently. “Hound, we will leave this place, and I promise you that we will never return. Please, I beg of you. Let us go... Please.”

Lacey had never been so terrified before, as Missy's life was on the line.
