Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 565

Taking a deep breath, she chokingly said, “Mr. Williams, do you know why I left Star Hotel and joined the pharmaceutical industry?”

Zeke was puzzled. “Why?”

“Because the person I like works in the industry.”

Zeke was worried as to why Susan was suddenly bringing this up.

Susan continued, “Do you know why I lowered my expectations to join Linton Group and willingly helped you manage its pharmaceutical assets?”

Zeke had a baffled expression on.

“Because the person I like works in Linton Group, and I wanted to get close to him. As long as I could see him every day, I was satisfied.”

“Sadly, the person I’m infatuated with ignores my feelings despite knowing about it.” Susan sobbed her eyes out as she spoke.

Zeke’s heart skipped a beat, and he began to feel anxious.

The person Susan liked is someone who worked in both the medical field and Linton Group...

Could it be that she had fallen in love with Daniel?

Daniel had worked his whole life as a doctor and was also in charge of Linton Group’s medical assets. Furthermore, he is Susan’s partner too.

Sigh, I did not expect Daniel’s charm to captivate a beauty like Susan.

To the extent that she was willing to work at Linton Group and become his partner.

Zeke naturally wasn’t going to allow such an inappropriate relationship to develop.

Just the thought of him addressing Susan as mother-in-law gave him goosebumps all over.

Patting Susan on her shoulder, he consoled her, “Susan, I understand what you feel. But...”

Susan suddenly broke out into a smile and cut him short. “Mm, Mr. Williams, I’m glad you understand my feelings.”

“I hope you won’t get the wrong idea as I don’t mean anything else. All I wanted was to let you know how I felt. Actually, I don’t have any expectations of you and don’t really care about what you think.”

“After all, it’s my choice who I choose to love, isn’t it? It has nothing to do with anyone else, including you.”

With that, she left, embarrassed.

Meanwhile, Zeke scratched his head.

Why don’t you care about what I think? At the very least, I’m still Daniel’s son-in-law.

Sigh, alcohol does funny things to people.

He glared angrily at Hadley. Hmph, it’s all your fault.

If she hadn’t gotten Susan to drink, Susan wouldn’t have blurted out something so ridiculous.

After giving Hadley a slap, he turned to leave.

If Susan knew what Zeke was really thinking about now, she would have strangle him to death.

There was no one else in this world that was as dense as he was.

As night fell and all was silent, Hadley woke up with a groggy head.

“Urgh, the alcohol was just too strong.”

“Hey, why are my cheeks stinging? Can alcohol be really bad for my face?”

Reaching for her cigarettes, she realized that they were missing. On top of that, her credit card was gone too.

Infuriated, she grumbled, “Damn it, I don’t mind if he took away my girl. But how dare he take my cigarettes and credit card too...”

“You damn b*****d, I hope you rot in hell!”

The more she thought about it the angrier she got. Was she to swallow her frustrations again just because he was her grandmaster?

I can’t tolerate this!

“Wait, he probably has lingering feelings for Leader. Now that he is married, this meant that he had been unfaithful to her.”

“All this while, he didn’t dare let Leader know that he was alive. Haha, if I expose the fact to Leader that he’s alive and married, I wonder if Leader would castrate him out of anger.”

“Haha, it would be wonderful if he were castrated. No one would then compete with me for Lacey, Susan, Nancy, and Dawn anymore.”
