Chapter 1207
Lord Protector Novel
âHey, listen. Twenty thousand is a discounted price,â Scarred Face barked at them.
âDid you know you guys offended somebody important? You would have lost your lives if it werenât for our protection.â
âAre your lives not worth twenty thousand?â
Lacey asked, âWho did we offend?â
Scarred Face, âIâm not telling you.â
âThe fact is, this person has been targeting you and we are the ones protecting you guys all this while.â
Lacey breathed in deeply and thought for a moment.
She knew who was targeting her father and mother.
âI donât have much with me now. Only two thousand,â Lacey replied.
âGive me some time and Iâll try to get the money.â
Poor b*****!
Scarred Face cursed at her. Then he left with his subordinates after snatching the money.
Zekeâs heart bled at the sight.
Theyâre in a worse condition than I thought.
What happened to them these three years when I wasnât around?
Of course, Zeke would not let Scarred Face off so easily.
He hugged Missy and walked out of the crowd, âStop right there.â
âDid I say you guys could leave?â
Scarred Face and his people were stumped and turned around.
âWho the hell are you? You donât even have the right to speak here.â
Zeke smiled thinly, âIâm here to take your lives.â
Daniel and Hannah finally saw Zeke.
The two of them widened their eyes in surprise, and their hearts were thumping as they quivered uncontrollably.
Zeke is back!
After abandoning his wife and daughter for three years, he is finally back.
Why did he come back?
Their minds went blank and they were at a loss.
Zeke carried Missy and approached Daniel and Hannah, âIâm sorry, mom and dad. You guys have suffered all these years. Donât worry, I will explain everything later.â
Then, he passed Missy to Lacey.
âLacey, please look after Missy. Leave this to me.â
âDonât let Missy watch.â
He turned around and approached Scarred Face.
Daniel and Hannah finally regained their composure after some time.
They watched Lacey in astonishment, âLacey, what happened?â
Lacey sighed, âIâm not sure. He said he would explain later. Just wait for his explanation.â
Hannah could only sigh.
What is there to explain?
Itâs unforgivable that he abandoned his wife and daughter to head to Atlantis and marry Princess Leia.
His explanation would be futile.
Zeke stood before Scarred Face and ordered, âKneel and apologize. Cut off your tongue to atone for your sin of chastising others. I shall let you live then. Otherwise, prepare to die!â
Scarred Face and his people were stumped.
Then, they burst into a mocking laugh.
âHahaha! Who the hell are you to order us? You want me to cut off my tongue? Are you high?â
Zeke replied, âIâm their son-in-law. Do you think I have the right to intervene here?â
The crowd was in an uproar at the revelation.
âHmm? Is he the ba****d son-in-law? The one who abandoned his wife and daughter to marry a rich woman? How does he have the face to come back here?â
âThis kind of person is unforgivable.â
Zeke could only smile bitterly at the murmurs.
It seemed my name was tarnished though and through.
Itâs okay. Iâll prove that Iâm innocent.
The ruffians burst into a cackle.
âHaha! So youâre the jerk! You look exactly like a rich womanâs boy toy.â
âWhy are you back all of a sudden? The rich womanâs done toying with you? Are you abandoned?â
Slap!
Zeke slapped him across the face without hesitation.
âThis is your second chance for retribution. Do as I say. Or else, prepare to die.â
