Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2140

“Lucy, How could you act on your own accord and decide to choose Intercontinental Group as our partner? Did you care to ask for my opinion at all?” Rhett snapped, glowering menacingly at her.

Lucy's heart skipped a beat at the sight of the scowl on the former's face. Oh my! It seems he's dissatisfied with Intercontinental Group!

She explained to him hastily, “Mr. Rhett, after a few rounds of in-depth inspection for Intercontinental Group, I notice it's the most suitable company to collaborate with us in this project. Thus, I feel there's no harm signing an agreement with them.”

Exuding an imposing aura, Rhett snarled, “Didn't you hear me? I didn't ask you if Intercontinental Group is qualified to collaborate with Mitxel Group! I only asked why you didn’t ask for my opinion when finalizing the options!”

As Lucy tensed up further, she stammered, “I-I thought I had the right to do so.”

That's bullsh*t! Rhett lambasted, “Who on earth authorized you to do so?”

Lucy was caught off guard and rendered speechless. She could not fathom why Rhett was in a sudden frenzy.

Before that, he had never blown his gasket when she bypassed him in finalizing some decisions related to Mitxel Group. Thus, she dared to act on her own accord by signing up an agreement with Intercontinental Group. What's the matter with him this round?

Sheldon explained apprehensively, “Mr. Rhett, you might not know well about our company. Allow me to make a thorough introduction regarding our group. I bet you'll be satisfied after having a clearer insight.”

The next moment, he whipped out a pile of documents and was about to convince Rhett of that.

Nonetheless, the latter fumed, “Keep your mouth shut! Lucy, arrange for me to meet up with the person in charge of Linton Group now. I need to talk things through with them.”

Lucy replied sheepishly, “The persons in charge of Linton Group are already here.”

Where? Rhett looked around hastily. Shortly after, he found Zeke, too, was on the spot.

Pointing at Emma and Zeka, Lucy stated, “They are the ones...”

Before she could finish her words, Rhett had already made his way toward Zeke.

Initially, he intended to shake hands with the latter. However, he held himself back when something came to his mind. Ha! Who am I to shake hands with him?

Subsequently, he bowed to Zeke instead.

“Mr. Williams, I'm sorry I wasn't aware you're around. Please don't take it to heart. As for my staff's negligence this round, please accept my sincerest apology,” Rhett apologized to him earnestly with another bow.

Everyone was stupefied. It never came across their minds that Rhett had ever crossed paths with Zeke before. Their curiosity was piqued as he seemed to be in awe of the latter.

D*mn it! Where on earth did this Zeke Williams come? The ambassador of Yartran's embassy in Eurasia is respectful of him. Meanwhile, the third shareholder of Mitxel Group, too, is intimidated by him! The fear on Lucy's face intensified gradually.

Zeke mocked, “Mr. Rhett, I'm impressed by your staff!”

Rhett almost buried his head in his hands as he wailed, “My goodness! Lucy is oblivious and naive for not choosing Linton Group! Mr. Williams, don't worry. I'll teach her a lesson and punish her severely.”

Zeke put on a show to grumble indignantly, “There's nothing much I can say if Ms. Lucy never considers Linton Group because we are incomparable to Intercontinental Group. But she didn't even have an inspection on my company. In fact, she chose Intercontinental Group right away after being sexually bribed by someone assigned by them. That's indeed unfair to us!”

What nonsense! Wearing a look of sheer grimness, Rhett glared at her ferociously. “Lucy, you're sexually bribed by anyone from Intercontinental Group?”

Lucy tried to reason with him. “Mr. Rhett, he's bluffing. How could you take his word for it? After all, I'm not young anymore. How's it possible that I was bribed in such a way? Apparently, he's slandering me!”

Fastening his gazes on Leonard and Rodney alongside him, Rhett questioned, “Cut the crap. What's your relationship with her?”
