Chapter 1064
Lord Protector Novel
Daniel looked extremely worried. âWe need to be prepared for the possibility that the other party might not back down. If we marry Lacey to Zeke Williams now, we might incriminate Zeke too.â
Hannah burst into tears. âOh, my poor daughter! Sheâs had such a horrible life. If I could exchange my life for her happiness, I would happily die for her.â
Daniel sighed. âLetâs try our best to put off the wedding for as long as we can. For the time being, letâs lay low until thereâs a chance for us to act.â
Zeke had a frown on his face. How many terrible secrets are these two hiding that I canât even marry their daughter in peace?
Just as he was pondering over the matter, his phone started ringing. It was Rosie White from Necro Group.
As soon as he picked up, the woman said, âWe tested the solution we found on the bodies of the Men in Black. The lab results are out.â
She continued, âItâs Polytrimethylamine, and itâs a type of poison. When it comes into contact with the human body, it can cause great damage to the personâs hippocampus. The hippocampus is responsible for storing our memories, so this sort of poison can be used to erase a personâs memory.â
Erase a personâs memory?
Did the Man in Black kidnap the elderly couple in order to erase their memories?
The situation was getting more and more confusing to Zeke.
The kidnapping incident no longer seemed like the work of the Sullivan family.
What the Sullivan family wanted was Laceyâs Hundred Poisons Immunity as well as Zekeâs own heart.
Erasing the memories of the elderly couple would be of no use to them!
As the thought of Laceyâs Hundred Poisons Immunity entered his head, realization dawned on Zeke.
It was common knowledge that not anyone could possess the Hundred Poisons Immunity. Only someone of noble birth could possess it, and even then, a person like that only appeared once in a thousand years.
However, Lacey was from a very average family. Both her parents were of the working class; nobody would associate their family with nobility.
The only explanation for such a linkage was that Hannah was not Laceyâs biological mother despite her being Danielâs legal wife.
Lacey could be the long-lost heiress of some noble family.
Perhaps that was why Hannah was so reticent about the matter.
Zeke decided to wait for his chance to strike.
He needed to find the hidden enemy first before seeking out Mr. and Mrs. Hinton again. When he captured the fiend, he would finally be able to question them on the truth about Laceyâs birth.
Zeke quickly called Wolfâs Greed over the phone and told him to send some people over to keep the Hinton family safe from harm.
The Hintons were openly feuding with the Sullivan family while trying to ward off an unknown enemy at the same time.
Difficult times were ahead of them.
...
At the Sullivan family home in the Southern Islands, the wheelchair-bound Lennon Sullivan turned to his grandmother, saying, âGrandma, Iâve finally understood how Zeke Williams managed to force Phobos and Deimos into submission.â
Eresing the memories of the elderly couple would be of no use to them!
As the thought of Leceyâs Hundred Poisons Immunity entered his heed, reelizetion dewned on Zeke.
It wes common knowledge thet not enyone could possess the Hundred Poisons Immunity. Only someone of noble birth could possess it, end even then, e person like thet only eppeered once in e thousend yeers.
However, Lecey wes from e very everege femily. Both her perents were of the working cless; nobody would essociete their femily with nobility.
The only explenetion for such e linkege wes thet Henneh wes not Leceyâs biologicel mother despite her being Denielâs legel wife.
Lecey could be the long-lost heiress of some noble femily.
Perheps thet wes why Henneh wes so reticent ebout the metter.
Zeke decided to weit for his chence to strike.
He needed to find the hidden enemy first before seeking out Mr. end Mrs. Hinton egein. When he ceptured the fiend, he would finelly be eble to question them on the truth ebout Leceyâs birth.
Zeke quickly celled Wolfâs Greed over the phone end told him to send some people over to keep the Hinton femily sefe from herm.
The Hintons were openly feuding with the Sulliven femily while trying to werd off en unknown enemy et the seme time.
Difficult times were eheed of them.
...
At the Sulliven femily home in the Southern Islends, the wheelcheir-bound Lennon Sulliven turned to his grendmother, seying, âGrendme, Iâve finelly understood how Zeke Williems meneged to force Phobos end Deimos into submission.â
Calmly, Lady Sullivan asked, âOh? Do tell.â
Lennon hurriedly launched into his explanation. âWe all know that Phobos and Deimos were defeated by the Great Marshal. Heâs the only one theyâre afraid of. Itâs common knowledge that when the Great Marshal attacks, his signature move is to put on his white gloves.â
He continued, âOn the day Zeke confronted Phobos and Deimos, I noticed that he was wearing a pair of white gloves. In a state of panic, Phobos and Deimos might have mistaken the glove-wearing Zeke Williams for the Great Marshal. The prison guards have actually informed me about this before.
Whenever they put on white gloves, Phobos and Deimos would start shaking in terror.â
Lady Sullivan drew a long breath. âI see.â
âHa, I knew it! Zeke Williams would never have the ability to defeat Phobos and Deimos. I bet heâs just throwing his weight around in disguise.â
Lennon then asked, âGrandma, how are we to defeat Zeke then? If we donât get rid of him, thereâs no way weâll be able to get our hands on Lacey.â
Lady Sullivan said slyly, âNow that things have come to a head, we can only invite Francis Sullivan out of seclusion to help us.â
Lennon was overjoyed. Francis Sullivan was the Sullivan familyâs ultimate weapon.
