Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 1916

Furthermore, they would have found out that he was the Great Marshal.

After Boxing King entered the gym, Thomas slowed down.

The look on his face was a taunting one.

“Boy, are you afraid now? You shouldn't have done this in the first place.”

Zeke chuckled. “Do I look like I'm afraid?”

Thomas said with disdain, “Hmph. What a stubborn man! I'll give you a chance now. Get on your knees and admit defeat. Break your legs, and I might just let you live. Otherwise, Mr. Boxing King will surely beat you to a pulp today!”

Zeke responded with a smirk, “I never thought that you'd be this adamant about getting someone on their knees to apologize. You getting on your knees to apologize to me must have traumatized you.”

Upon hearing that, Thomas, who was a man with a big ego, scowled.

Zeke had embarrassed him in front of a crowd by revealing that he had knelt to Zeke in the past.

Unsurprisingly, the crowd began whispering to each other once they heard Zeke's words.

At that very moment, Thomas wished that he could crawl into a hole and hide there forever.

Nevertheless, he gritted his teeth and hissed, “Zeke Williams, just you wait! I'll end you for sure today! Ha! All you can do now is to keep talking nonsense. Anything you say now is going to be your last words!”

With that, Thomas stormed into the gym.

Sasha cast a sympathizing gaze at Zeke. “Zeke Williams, you've really crossed Thomas this time. It'll be a surprise if he doesn't kill you today. Don't think that he won't have the guts to kill you because there's nothing he dares not do here. That excludes starting a revolution, of course. Well, since you're going to die, I won't ask for compensation from you anymore. If you call me ma'am right now, maybe I'll help you deal with your dead body. After all, Thomas and I are on good terms. It shouldn't be a problem for me to get him to hand over your body.”

Zeke gave her a smile. “After hearing those words from you, I've decided not to hold you accountable for the humiliating words you said to me earlier.”

Sasha frowned. “Drop the act. Everyone knows that you're just a sheep in a wolf's clothing. Hurry in. Get it over and done with so you can start a new life quicker.”

Zeke did not respond to that.

All of a sudden, Amelia said, “Zee, wait. I want to place a ten bucks bet on you.”

She then handed her money to the thin security guard.

The thin security guard, however, gave her a look of disdain. “Forget it, little girl. It's better if you keep the money and use it on something else. Once he dies, you'll have to find a way to survive by yourself. This ten bucks will get you a meal, at the very least.”

Still, Amelia insisted, “No, Zee's the strongest person in the world. No one can beat him in a fight. So, I'm going to put these ten bucks on Zee.”

Unable to change Amelia's mind, the thin security guard had no choice but to agree to her request.

“Little one, if you win, you're going to be a millionaire. Of course, the chances of you becoming that are close to zero.”

The crowd then burst out laughing at that.

Zeke ignored them and brought Amelia into the gym.

The inside of the building was packed and lively.

Someone else had started a bet in the gym as well.

When Zeke glanced at it, he realized it was the same state as the bet outside—everyone had placed their bets on Boxing King.

The smaller bets were in hundreds of thousands, and the larger bets were worth tens of millions.

However, none had placed a bet on Zeke.

Zeke sighed quietly.

If he placed a bet on himself, he was sure that he would win a hefty sum. Unfortunately, he never brought cash with him.

However, a moment later, a thought flashed across his mind.

He fished out his phone and called Emma.

In seconds, Emma's tired voice could be heard through the speakers. “Mr. Williams, are you looking for me?”

“Yes. Emma, can you transfer me a few thousand right now?”

Zeke was planning to borrow some money from Emma to place a bet on himself. Once he won, he would then give all the money to Emma.

After his match, she would be able to earn at least billions. That would be enough to solve the issue that was giving her a headache right now.

Upon hearing Zeke's words, Emma tentatively asked, “Mr. Williams, what are you going to do with the money?”
