Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 307

Chapter 307

“What a coincidence, Mr. Williams,” Jonas offered, with a smile. “What are you doing here?”

“Hi. It’s all thanks to some godforsaken prank. Someone threw glass all over the road, and I’d busted a tire.”

Joshua carefully observed the tire, uttering casually, “This tire’s been done in pretty badly. I don’t think you’ll be able to get it fixed. Do you have a spare tire, Mr. Williams? You should use the spare...”

Joshua shut his mouth in regret.

F***! Why the hell am I reminding him to use a spare?

How am I gonna lure him to the abandoned pier if he really replaces his tire and drives off?

Damn it! I should’ve left this damn mouth at home.

Zeke was in a bind too.

D*** it, are you stupid? How the hell am I supposed to answer you?

Should I tell you that I have a spare? How am I going to get rid of Samuel if I replace my tire and drive off?

I can’t say that I don’t have a spare. They’ll grow suspicious. The spare’s right there on the car’s ass!

Jonas kicked his son in the leg. “Shut it. A spare tire is a spare. What if another tire blows out later? What would Mr. Williams do, being stuck in the middle of nowhere? I have an idea. Since Joshua and I are here, let us take you to get a new tire. I happen to know that there’s a workshop not too far from here.”

Zeke immediately played along, “Yeah. You have a point, Jonas. Alright then. Take me to get a new tire, then drop me off back here.”

“No problem,” Jonas happily answered.

Joshua took them in the direction of the Dunst Abandoned Pier.

Soon, he made a turn into a small town.

This town had several car workshops.

Jonas immediately tensed up and became furious.

Holy s***, did this boy leave his brain at home?

Of all routes, why did he choose to take this one? What if Zeke spots a workshop and chooses to get a tire here?

We’re still more than ten kilometers away from the pier!

Zeke immediately felt awkward.

What should I do now?

There are at least three workshops right in front. Should I pretend not to see them?

Wouldn’t that raise these guys’ suspicions?

But if I stop and get a tire here, I won’t be able to meet Samuel...

S***! These two guys are idiots.

Thinking on his feet, Jonas drew Zeke’s attention away from the road by talking to him.

Zeke happily engaged himself in conversation, without looking out of the window.

They both heaved out a long sigh of relief after the car drove out of the small town.

Thank God he didn’t notice the workshops, Jonas thought.

Thank God he didn’t notice that I’d noticed, Zeke thought...

Twenty minutes later, they arrived at the Dunst Abandoned Pier.

This was the same pier where Samuel and the rest were ambushed, by men in black previously.

Seeing how desolate the place looked, Zeke remarked with “curiosity’, “There’s not a soul in this area. How can a workshop survive here?”

Joshua replied, “Oh, there aren’t any cars here, but there are lots of ships. These guys here mainly focus on fixing ship tires...”

Pft!

Unable to control himself, Zeke burst out into laughter.

Fixing tires for ships?

Whatever you say then.

Jonas and Joshua looked awkward.

However, seeing that Zeke had stopped pursuing the matter, they both sighed with relief.

They took Zeke into the abandoned warehouse.

The warehouse looked extremely disarrayed, with countless amounts of construction waste and buckets all over the place.

There were even traces of a huge fire.
