Chapter 1022
Lord Protector Novel
Zeke was furious.
His figure moved. Suddenly, he was standing in front of younger Williams. Zeke slapped that man who flew back and smashed against the wall.
The latter fell to the floor and vomited blood.
After that, the guy stopped moving. There was no saying if he was still alive.
âMy gosh, the Williamses have terrible memories. How many times have I said that the next person who insults my wife will die? It seems that mere words are not enough. You wonât believe me unless I make a move.â
The Williamses shut up immediately and turned pale.
Zekeâs words meant he had slapped the younger member of their family to death.
Killing oneâs own family was an act of sin!
âLetâs go, Lacey,â said Zeke as he held Laceyâs hand and prepared to leave.
Lennon scoffed, âHold it right there.â
âThe Sullivans are nobles and cannot be insulted. You have humiliated us. Do you really think we would let you live?â
âIâm going to be honest with you. I planted a poisonous worm by the front door, and you were poisoned the second you walked in. Only my family can expel this worm. I want you to claw your own eyes out as an apology right now. If you donât, you will die.â
Lacey was a little nervous when she heard that, but Zeke squeezed her hand to calm her down.
He grinned amusingly. âThen Iâll be honest with you too. I planted a poisonous worm on the most honorable seat of the Williams family. At first, I did that to warn them, but you took that seat and ended up being poisoned. I am the only person who can expel that worm. If you get down on your knees and apologize right away, I might just feel merciful and save your life.â
Hah!
Lennon scoffed discriminatorily, âI have been learning about poisonous worms since I was a kid and am an expert in the field. If you had actually planted a poisonous worm there, then I wouldâve noticed it.
You are such a clown...â
Lennon hadnât even had the chance to finish speaking. He suddenly paused and turned pale.
After that, he coughed and spat blood.
That is the effect of having a poisonous worm in the body!
He poisoned me!
Lennonâs eyes bulged with fear as he glared at Zeke.
He actually managed to poison me without me realizing it!
That proved that Zeke was even more skilled than Lennon was.
I underestimated him.
The most important matter to tend to at that moment was to expel the worm. If he waited, his life would be in jeopardy.
Lennon gritted his teeth and stood up shakily. âJust you wait, Williams. You have hurt an heir of the Sullivan family, and that is as grave as hurting the Emperor. You will die a horrible death!â
Lennon staggered away as he vomited blood.
Zeke then left with Lacey too.
She looked worried when she turned to her husband. âZeke, h-how do you feel now?â
Zeke smiled and reassured, âDonât worry, Lacey, his skills are nothing to me. I will make myself some medicine later, and I will be fine. Trust my medical skills.â
Lacey still looked worried.
Zeke sent her to Linton Groupâs headquarters before he rushed to Reinz Pharmaceutical.
The Sullivans was a family of experts in poisonous worms, so Lennonâs worms were pretty powerful.
It took Zeke three hours to figure out how to expel that worm, and he had to sacrifice two Rhodiola Roseas.
After curing himself, Zeke got lost in his thoughts.
Who wouldâve thought that Lacey has the unique and rare physical ability to cure herself of all poison?
