Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 1862

Robert didn't dare to hide the truth anymore. “I know Wendy is affiliated with an extremely rich and powerful force, so much so that even I, one of the richest men on earth, mean nothing to her. She told me that if I could pretend to cooperate with Linton Group and lure Nancy and Dawn here, she'd pay me an enormous amount of money. It'd make United Group worth over hundreds of billions. And I... I was too greedy. I trusted her. But she mysteriously disappeared into thin air soon after.”

“So this Wendy, which organization does she belong to?” Zeke interrogated.

“I-I'm not sure about that, but I do know that the America-based Omega Group is controlled by that particular organization. Omega Group is one of the top ten businesses in the world. They have the best anti-gravity technology in the world.”

Omega Group? Zeke took a mental note of the name.

“So what else do you know about her? You better tell me now,” Zeke instructed.

Robert slammed his head against the floor abruptly and said, “That's all I know. I swear on my life!”

Suddenly, Adrian chimed in, “Great Marshal, I-I'd like to redeem myself!”

“How do you plan on doing that?” Zeke asked.

“I... I think I know her whereabouts,” Adrian answered immediately.

That perked Zeke's interest. “Oh? You do? Tell me, then.”

Adrian then continued, “One of my subordinates once told me that Wendy is a frequent visitor of my bar, Sage Bar. We assumed that she was there for business purposes, so I sent men to keep an eye on her. However, we stopped after a while because her movements weren't suspicious. I think she might be hiding there.”

Sage Bar? That could be one of Kush Clan's bases. Zeke decided to check the place out for himself. Those three defectors from Mount Kush could be there.

“Is there anything else?” Zeke asked.

Adrian shook his head timidly. “That's all for now.”

Zeke then turned around to leave.

When Robert and Adrian saw Zeke leaving, they practically jumped for joy because they thought he was going to let them off the hook.

While still kneeling, they said gratefully, “Thank you for showing us mercy, Great Marshal! We'll turn over a new leaf and—”

Before they could finish, Zeke suddenly released an intense burst of energy toward them. The group of men, including Edmund, were flung out of the building and fell onto the ground.

How dare you try to hurt me and my woman? As if I'd ever let you off the hook!

Nancy and Dawn were waiting patiently for Zeke in the corridor. “Zeke, is it done?” they asked when they saw him.

“Yes. Let's leave.” Zeke nodded.

“Okay!” the ladies answered. “Zeke, you didn't bring us shopping that day. Now that you're free, will you accompany us?”

“No, I can't,” Zeke answered sternly. “I still have important matters to attend to.”

Zeke wasn't able to accompany them because he had to head toward Sage Bar.

Nancy and Dawn were both visibly disappointed.

“It's not safe here. I'll get someone to send Lacey and the both of you back to Atheville. Once I'm done with the matters here, I'll block-book the whole street in Atheville. Then you guys can shop all you want,” Zeke promised.

“Hooray!” The two of them were appeased when they heard his words.

After bringing them to meet Lacey and Missy, Zeke drove all of them to the airport.
