Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 2414

“Got it!”

Meanwhile, the Mitxel family was residing in the Mitxel estate.

The Mitxel estate was built upon a large piece of land and consisted of luxurious buildings and facilities like a golf course, swimming pool, and sports complex.

The buildings were elaborately decorated, and their grandeur was comparable to palaces.

Jared was fond of animals. That was why he built a separate building to house a variety of beasts like lions and tigers for his enjoyment.

The usually bustling estate was particularly quiet today. Not a single soul was roaming outside the buildings.

Almost all the core members of the Mitxel family were gathered in the meeting room. Like cats on hot bricks, they began to murmur among themselves.

The man sitting in the middle was the former patriarch of the family, Logan Mitxel. He was also Jared's and Rhett's father.

Though he had already stepped down from the position, he still had a say over certain family matters.

Logan had always been opinionated, but at this point, he could only keep mum as he was just as lost as the other family members.

Upon seeing Jared enter the meeting room, Logan grabbed hold of him as if he was a drowning man grasping at a life ring. “Quickly, take your seat.”

Jared walked up and sat beside Logan. “Dad, don't worry. I've found a solution.”

Logan heaved a sigh of relief upon hearing what Jared said.

He asked, “Jared, tell me what happened. Who and why did they mark the Mitxel family as their target?”

Logan had washed his hands of family matters for years as his age was catching up to him. If it were not because of the survival of the Mitxels, he would not have made an appearance.

Jared explained with a sigh, “It's all because of Eurasia's Great Marshal.”

Upon hearing that, Logan gasped and dropped his walking stick. “W-What did you say? What has this got to do with the Great Marshall? How? Tell me everything. Explain in detail.”

Since the family crisis involved the Great Marshal, Logan could not turn a blind eye to it.

Jared explained in a serious voice, “It all started with Rhett. Rhett made a trip to Eurasia to study the country's investment environment but didn't pay tribute to the Great Marshal. The Great Marshal was offended and, in a fit of anger, killed Rhett.”

He continued, “After learning about my brother's death, I wanted to settle scores with the Great Marshal. But that man is a killing machine. He even tried to behead me. Fortunately, I was able to escape to the Eurasian borders in time when I sensed danger around me.”

“But the Great Marshal refused to give up. He ordered the Genesis Chamber of Commerce to hunt the Mitxels down and vowed to destroy our family. He's a ruthless monster! He doesn't deserve the Great Marshal title!” Jared exclaimed.

After Logan heard Jared's story, a suspicious look flashed across his face. “Are you sure you're telling the truth? As far as I know, the Great Marshal is not a cruel, murderous man.”

Despite feeling a little guilty, Jared still put on a steady front. “Dad, have you had encounters with the Great Marshal?”

Logan shook his head. “No. I've only heard stories about him from the people I met.”

“There are a thousand ways to interpret a person's personality. What you heard from others about the Great Marshal is not true.” Jared manipulated his father to his advantage.

Logan eventually bought his story. He knocked on the floor with his walking stick and snorted. “The Great Marshal is too much! Are we dead to him? How dare he challenge the Mitxel family!”

Jared said, “Calm down, Dad. Take care of your health, and don't get too worked up over this matter. It's not worth it to get upset over something so trivial.”

Logan sighed repeatedly. “This is not something trivial. He can exterminate our family if we make a wrong move. It won't be easy for us to deal with the Great Marshal.”
