Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2401

As Rhett had been recovering from his injuries in Cygnus Room, he was completely unaware of the epic battle between Mitxel Group and Linton Group.

After Zeke explained everything to him, Rhett finally learned what had happened.

“That idiot! My brother, Jared, is a fool! How could he bring himself to oppose you.” As soon as Rhett learned what had happened, he descended into a raging state. “Great Marshal, please forgive my brother for his stupidity. No one in the Mitxel family knows about your identity as the Great Marshal aside from me. Please don't worry. I will talk to Jared about this and ask him to stop his attacks on Linton Group.”

Zeke responded with a ghastly and terrifying smile. “Stop attacking? That's it? What about the losses he inflicted on Linton Group?”

The savage smile on Zeke scared the life out of Rhett, causing him to hurriedly say, “We'll pay for that. We'll compensate you in full. Great Marshal, name us your price.”

“I don't need much. Hmmm. Just give me that three hundred billion that the Mitxel family transferred into Eurasia recently. Oh, and also half of the Mitxel family's net worth.”

The exorbitant demands from Zeke shocked Rhett.

After all, three hundred billion was pretty close to the limit the Mitxel family could afford.

If they split their total net worth into half and gave it to Zeke, the Mitxel family would be reduced back into a minor family.

When that happened, the Mitxel family would ultimately be wiped out as they would be defenseless against the enemies seeking revenge against them.

You might as well just take us down and take over the family!

Seeing the conflicted expression on Rhett, Zeke replied, “Okay. Fine. Since you seem so reluctant, I won't make it hard for you. I'll declare war against the Mitxel family, and we shall see who will triumph.”

“No, no!” Rhett quickly stopped Zeke.

If the Great Marshal declares war against our family, we wouldn't even be able to put up a fight against him. By then, not only will we lose all our wealth but also all our men. Compared to this absolute defeat, I might as well gift him all our assets.

Rhett continued, “Great Marshal, I will return to the Mitxel family right now and talk to them about transferring the entire family's wealth to you.”

“Good. You may leave now. Don't waste any more of my time.”

Upon hearing this, Rhett carefully walked away and left.

In truth, Zeke could not be bothered to deal with the Mitxel family personally, so he decided to have Rhett talk them into surrender. If Rhett was successful, it would save him a great deal of effort.

Meanwhile, Rhett wasted not a single second. In just a moment, he arrived at one of the five-star hotels owned by Intercontinental Group.

His older brother, Jared, had been staying in this hotel all the while.

The entire hotel had been entirely reserved and booked by Jared alone, leaving him the only guest in the hotel.

The security guards, too, had been replaced by the elite bodyguards Jared brought from the Mitxel family.

Upon his arrival, Rhett got out of his car and furiously charged into the hotel.

Just as expected, he was stopped by a bodyguard at the entrance. “Stop! Identify yourself. Do you have an appointment?”

“Appointment, my butt! I want to see Jared. Don't you even dare to stop me!” Rhett bellowed.

The two bodyguards at the entrance immediately pulled out their daggers, for they sensed the threatening aura coming from Rhett.

“Stop right there and identify yourself. We will have to resort to violence if you take one more step forward!”

Seeing no other way to get around, Rhett removed his mask and reprimanded, “Open your eyes and look carefully! Tell me! Who am I? That b*stard Jared really knows how to enjoy life, eh? He even had the guards from the Mitxel family brought along with him!”

In the meantime, the two bodyguards were dumbfounded when they saw Rhett's face.

“M-Mr. Rhett! B-But how? Is that really you?”

“You're still alive! Oh my god. This is unbelievable! If the Mitxel family learns about this, there will be turmoil!”
