Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 320

Chapter 320

As the prettiest lady in Riverdale District, all men would grovel at her feet and try their best to flatter her.

Zeke was probably the first man in the world who had treated her rudely.

Nancy felt her anger rising when she saw the shameless smile on Zeke’s face.

She took the glass and sipped on water to cool down.

Zeke immediately stated, “You can’t drink this...”

Nancy snapped, “Shut up. Everything here belongs to Lacey, including this glass of water. You’re a kept man, so you have no right to stop me!”

After saying that, she gulped the glass of water down in anger.

Zeke was dumbfounded.

I wanted to tell you that I’d drink from that glass.

Lacey shook her head at Zeke, asking him to remain silent.

If that arrogant Nancy discovered that she had shared a glass with him, she would explode in anger.

After finishing the water, Nancy finally calmed down.

Ignoring Zeke, she told Lacey, “Lacey, I have two things to accomplish here.”

“First, I’m here to inform you to join us when we pay our respects to our ancestors.”

“Secondly, I want to collaborate with you on the tourist destination development project in Whiteridge.”

Zeke was taken aback. “The tourist destination development project in Whiteridge?”

Isn’t that the project I’ve just won?

Nancy replied arrogantly, “Yes, that tourist destination development project in Whiteridge which Riverdale District invested one billion in.”

“You must be in disbelief after hearing I got that huge project, right? Ha! I’m sorry, but I’m that capable. Don’t be jealous of me.”

Zeke remained silent.

I won the entire project, but you’re just tendering for the project. Why would I be jealous?

He inquired, “But I didn’t know that this project was outsourced to another company?”

“Hmph, you know nothing, kept man,” Nancy snorted.

“I’ve talked to the person-in-charge of the project, Ben. We’re about to sign the contract.”

“Lacey, I need you to sign the contract before I hand it to Ben. After he stamps it with the official stamp, we’ll get the project for sure.”

Zeke finally understood.

Turns out Nancy was talking to Ben about getting the project.

She doesn’t know that the project has a new person-in-charge now, which is me.

Lacey waved her hands. “No, I can’t sign this.”

“Nancy, I know your family can handle the project well. If you collaborate with me, you’re giving me a part of your earnings.”

“I can’t say yes and accept your money.”

Nancy grew impatient and grabbed Lacey’s finger, pressing it on the contract. “Just say yes.”

“This contract is my coming-on-age present for you.”

After getting Lacey’s fingerprint, Nancy took the contract with a dreamy expression on her face. “In ten days’ time, I am sure I’ll get the official stamp from the Whiteridge project department. By then, the contract will take effect.”

“Lacey, we’ll just have to wait and get the money.”

Suddenly, Zeke took out a stamp from nowhere and announced, “Since you’re helping my wife, you don’t have to wait for ten days. I’ll stamp it for you today.”

Upon proclaiming this, he stamped on the contract. Smack!

Silence ensued.

Both Nancy and Lacey stared at the red stamp on the contract in shock.

Written on the stamp was ‘Project Department, Tourist Destination Development Project, Whiteridge’!

This was the project department’s official stamp!
