Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 545

The onlookers suggested all sorts of ideas because they knew it would be impossible for Zeke to flee as of now.

“Young man, you have to behave yourself when you make the acquaintance of the mayor. Please show your sincerity.”

“She’s right. You’re but an ordinary citizen. Since you’re going to provide the mayor your feedbacks, you should do it in an appropriate manner.”

“First of all, praise the mayor. After that, deliver your feedback humbly. I’m sure the mayor won’t try to pick on you if you flatter him beforehand.”

Although Zeke heard their suggestions, he remained silent by the old lady’s side.

Before long, the mayor made his way downstairs.

The mayor was a middle-aged man with a complete set of tuxedo. Although he was a middle-aged man, his appearance suggested otherwise because he seemed like a haggard senior citizen instead.

However, the mayor exuded an intimidating presence and rendered the onlookers silent as a result.

By then, the old lady was trembling in fear.

Zeke was the only one who behaved naturally as though it wasn’t a big deal.

The director rushed over and greeted the mayor politely, “Mr. Middleton, I’m so sorry for bothering you...”

Jeffrey Middleton merely waved and assured the director, “Don’t worry about it.”

Then, he surveyed the surroundings and asked, “May I know who’s the one who wishes to provide me with his feedback? After all, Oakheart City belongs to everyone. Perhaps I might have missed out on certain aspects in the past. Hence, I truly cherish the opinions of fellow citizens. Of course, if the constructive feedback provided is beneficial to Oakheart City, I’ll personally reward the citizen for his effort.”

Nonetheless, none of those who were in the lobby took his words seriously because they were certain he was merely being courteous superficially. They knew full well that they would be doomed should they follow his instructions.

Meanwhile, the director pointed in Zeke’s direction and replied, “Mr. Middleton, he’s the one who wishes to provide you with his feedback.”

When Zeke heard the director’s introduction, he nodded. “That’s right. I’m the one with the feedback, so brace yourself as you’re going to get an earful from me.”

Zeke initiated the conversation in a callous tone. To be exact, it sounded as though he was condemning the mayor for his mistakes.

He’s doomed!

Suddenly, everyone grew anxious due to Zeke’s arrogant reply.

They were certain that the mayor would take things out on Zeke due to his behavior.

Indeed, the mayor frowned in return because he was surprised by Zeke’s attitude as well.

“Young man, why don’t you tell me what is it about?” asked the mayor.

Zeke replied, “As a mayor, you have no idea what’s going on. Instead, you took the side of those at fault. I don’t think you have the rights to be a mayor.”

As a matter of fact, Jeffrey was one of Zeke’s disciples as well. Hence, Zeke didn’t bother to hold back against him at all.

Previously, the Forrest Family from Riverdale District tried to intimidate Zeke through Oakheart City’s mayor.

Hence, Zeke instructed the almighty general, Sole Wolf, to get rid of the mayor back then. In the end, Sole Wolf appointed Jeffrey, one of his disciples, as the mayor of Oakheart City.

In short, Zeke was Jeffrey’s grandmaster since Sole Wolf was one of Zeke’s disciples as well.

Thus, Zeke couldn’t suppress his anger anymore since his disciple was the one at fault.

However, the onlookers’ mind was blown away by Zeke’s statement when they saw how he condemned the mayor of Oakheart City right before their eyes.

Indirectly, Zeke indicated Jeffrey barely qualified to be the mayor of Oakheart City.

Oh, God! Who gave this young man the audacity to utter such impudent words against the mayor?

Naturally, the mayor was irritated. He was on the verge of losing his cool as well.

Albeit annoyed, Jeffrey replied, “Young man, even though I have yet to achieve any ground-breaking achievements, I have always played my part as Oakheart City’s mayor and served the citizens wholeheartedly. I have never once neglected those in need. If you can’t validate your statement, I’m afraid I’ll have to sue you for defamation today.”

At that, Zeke pointed out the sins Jeffrey had committed. “This particular hospital prioritizes profits over their patients. The employees of the hospital actually try to torture and intimidate their patients. We should get rid of such a hospital with such corrupted core values as soon as possible, right? However, you did the exact opposite. You didn’t bother to terminate the operation of such a hospital. Instead, you actually visited the hospital and became part of their marketing fluff.”

When Jeffrey heard Zeke’s words, he frowned and questioned the director of the hospital, “Is he telling the truth?”

The director tried to explain himself immediately, “Mr. Middleton, he’s lying! Please don’t listen to him. Our hospital’s operations are audited by the authorities on a yearly basis. We have carried out the required procedures according to the law as well. We are a well-regulated hospital...”

However, Jeffrey interrupted the director halfway through his speech. “You’re not answering my question. Please skip the details of the hospital’s operation. Tell me if he’s telling the truth instead.”

The director hesitated for quite some time before he gritted his teeth and replied, “No... He’s lying.”
