Lord Protector novel (Zeke Williams) novel Chapter 826

Natalie quickly went to his aid. “Yes, yes. I think so too.”

“I mean, just think about it. If Zeke Williams is so great, he would have been escorted by at least two teams whenever he travels. But he didn’t even have bodyguards around him, only a driver.”

“Besides, he himself admitted he raises dogs in the military.”

The Walters had thoughtful looks on their faces as they nodded.

“Mm. This seems very likely.”

“Williams has more guts than we give him credit for, going as far as stealing a Hongqi.”

“If his military unit finds out about it, he’d definitely be sent to the military court. After all, not just anyone is qualified to ride in that kind of car.”

Peter heaved a sigh. “That isn’t the point!”

“The point is, Mr. Murphy believes the car belongs to Zeke Williams, and he’s going to reject the application documents we submitted.”

Joseph suddenly scoffed. “What’s so difficult about getting Mr. Murphy’s approval for the application documents?”

Everyone looked at him with curiosity. “Mr. Zelly, do you have any good ideas?”

“The one who started this mess should be the one to end it,” Joseph casually stated.

“Since Mr. Murphy trusts Zeke so much, we should get him to speak to Mr. Murphy on our behalf so that he’ll give the application documents the green light.”

“But...” Peter expressed his concern, “That guy hates our guts. Will he agree to help us?”

Joseph reminded, “Don’t forget, Zeke Williams needs a favor from the Walters.”

“Doesn’t he want Frederick’s memorial tablet to be returned to the ancestral shrine? You can threaten him with this.”

Everyone’s eyes lit up instantly.

The Walters seemed to be greatly enlightened as they concurred, “Yeah. We still have leverage over him. What’s there to worry about?”

“Come on! Let’s head over to the ancestral shrine now.”

The Walters hopped into their cars and headed towards their ancestral shrine.

In the Hongqi L5.

Sage recognized Wolf’s Greed at first glance. “Hey, aren’t you the general who brought over my brother’s martyr certificate the other day?”

A crease formed between her brows. “Why... Why are you chauffeuring Zeke around?”

Zeke smiled when he saw realization dawn on her. “Yes, the truth is what you’re thinking.”

Sage gasped in shock. “Are you... Are you also one of the ten soldiers under the Great Marshal’s command?”

She then proceeded to mumble to herself, “That makes sense. You and my brother were comrades, so that’s definitely it.”

Zeke was speechless.

I can command Wolf’s Greed, and my surname is Williams. Isn’t it obvious I’m the Great Marshal?

How did you come to the conclusion that I’m the Great Marshal’s subordinate?

Sage gasped in surprise again. “Does that mean you’ve met the Great Marshal in person before?”

She leaned closer with excitement in her eyes. “Zeke, tell me. What does the Great Marshal look like?”

“What do you think the Great Marshal looks like?” Wolf’s Greed’s teased.

Sage spoke animatedly, “He’s rumored to be more handsome than David Beckham. Also, they say he’s gentle and refined, even more so compared to a woman. If he weren’t a general, he would probably be the perfect boy toy.”

Zeke’s face darkened further.

What does she mean by ‘boy toy’?

Wolf’s Greed threw his head back in laughter but was cut off midway when Zeke whacked him on the shoulder. “Ouch! What was that for?”

They soon arrived at the Walters’ ancestral shrine.

The ancestral shrine was grand and enormous. The Walters family alone had over a hundred memorial tablets resting there.

Nearly a hundred tablets lay on the small tables arranged on both sides of the Walters’ altar, all of which belonged to their family servants who had served them over the years.

Sage and her family knelt before their ancestors, burned incense, and mourned for the dead.

Tears pooled in their eyes.

They had waited five years for this day.

Their dreams had finally come true, so it was only logical that they got emotional.

Zeke stood tall by the side and didn’t kneel.

The Great Marshal was the pride of the country, and hence, did not bow easily.

When they were done paying their respects, Sage carefully placed the tablet on the Walters family altar.

“Fred, you’re home now.” She sobbed in between words, “Fred, you can finally rest in peace...”

“Stop right there!” Sage had just placed the tablet on the altar when an angry roar came from just beyond the door.
