Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 1909

On top of that, I've already treated Amelia's legs. She'll be able to walk in three days or less.

Madeline was filled with rage when she saw Zeke laughing. “How can you possibly laugh at a time like this? Do you have some ulterior motive?”

“First of all, Linton Group is mine. If you want to seek the help of the Divine Doctor from the company, I can help you out there. Secondly, all the doctors working under Linton Group can do nothing to cure Amelia's condition. Lastly, I've already treated her legs. She can start walking after recuperating for three days. There's no need for you to ask the Divine Doctor for help,” he replied calmly.

Emma and Madeline were flabbergasted. Say what? The Linton Group, hailed as a miracle in the business scene, belongs to him? And he has already healed Amelia's legs? Is... Is this real?

However, they quickly pulled themselves together.

It has to be a joke. How can someone who dresses like a pauper be a billionaire and a boss of a large company? He must take us for fools.

Emma's face was etched with disappointment, whereas Madeline was irate.

“Williams, are you taking us for a ride? Linton Group is worth billions. Are you telling me that a billionaire would dress as shabbily as you and go around without bodyguards? No matter how I look at you, you look like a hooligan. There's no way you'd have anything to do with the Divine Doctor, let alone have the ability to heal Amelia's legs. She's already pitiful enough as it is, so don't complicate things even further,” snapped Madeline.

Zeke hurried to defend himself. “I'm telling the truth. Why don't I make a phone call to the president of Linton Group so that you can verify it for yourselves?”

Very well, then!

Madeline nodded. “If you're really able to give the president a call, I'll believe you.”

Hence, Zeke reached for his phone and dialed Lacey's number immediately.

Ring... Ring... Ring...

Emma and Madeline fastened their eyes on his phone, holding their breath in nervous anticipation.

They waited and waited until the line went dead. No one answered the call.

Without missing a beat, Madeline snickered and jeered, “Well, go on with your act. Why didn't the call go through?”

Zeke was slightly worried, having no clue why Lacey did not pick up. Did something happen?

After what happened to her previously, he could not help feeling on edge and paranoid.

Left with no other choice, he phoned Dawn instead, who answered his call almost immediately.

As soon as the call connected, Zeke asked anxiously, “Dawnie, why can't I get through to Lacey's phone? Is she all right?”

Dawn replied, “She's in a meeting, so her phone is on silent mode.”

A sense of relief washed over Zeke. “I see. Thank goodness. Oh, by the way, how is Linton Group doing? Have there been any issues?”

“Tsk, tsk! Considering that you're starting to care about Linton Group's operations, you've finally remembered that the business is yours too, have you? Well, things are going great and getting better every day. Our daily revenue is so high that I wouldn't even be able to spend it all in my lifetime!”

“Got it. Send me the company's financial report later.”

“Sure,” she responded.

By the time Zeke ended the call, Emma and Madeline were staring at him incredulously.

He just spoke to someone from Linton Group! And that person confirmed that the company is his! It has to be a prank. Right? How could a billionaire seem so normal and mingle with ordinary people like us? Thomas may only have a net worth of over hundreds of millions. However, he's way flashier than this guy whose net worth is over ten times more!

Madeline voiced her doubt. “You're bluffing us, aren't you? That was someone you hired to go along with your act, right?”
