Chapter 1283
Lord Protector Novel
The groom was incensed. âYou guys better think of the consequences of your own actions...â
He did not get to finish. The villagers chased him away.
Justin hurled the bridal bouquet on the floor and stepped on it. âI swear that you guys will come crawling back and beg me.â
He dashed out of the house.
A cold voice spoke, âDid I say you can go?â
The villagers were taken aback and glanced in the direction of the voice.
They noticed it was the young man who took the center seat.
Justin stopped in his tracks and looked at Zeke in disbelief.
âWho the hell are you? Why havenât I seen you before?â
Zeke replied, âBecause you were not qualified to meet me.â
Arrogant ba****d!
Justin spat at Zeke, âMy father is the second-in-command of the Bureau of Land Planning, and Iâm going to succeed him soon. Who do you think you are, the governor?â
Zeke chuckled, âA governor is nothing to me.â
The crowd was abuzz at his remark.
This young man is so cocky that he even dares to belittle the governor!
He would suffer in the hands of governor if he knew about this.
Justin was gob smacked. âYouâre really one of a kind, brother. I think we could get along quite well if youâre not trying to speak up for them today.â
Wolfâs Greed got up suddenly and dashed toward Justin. He slapped him across the face, hard.
âYouâre not worthy of calling him âbrotherâ. Youâre humiliating him.â
Justin cupped his cheek as he fell to the floor from the momentum of the slap.
He widened his eyes at Wolfâs Greed.
A peasant just slapped me!
I canât take this!
The villagers were dumbfounded.
This young man is being too rash. If Justin avenges himself, the two of them are going to suffer his wrath.
âJust wait! Youâre going to pay for this!â Justin roared at Wolfâs Greed.
Zeke turned to Wolfâs Greed and asked, âHow are the arrangements coming up?â
Wolfâs Greed looked at the time. âI think theyâre going to be here soon.â
The crowd was bewildered.
What are they talking about?
What arrangements? Arriving soon?
A grieving music could be heard coming from afar.
It was apparent that the music was heading their way.
The villagers exchanged curious glances with each other and walked out to have a look.
Zeke smiled at Tyler. âMr. Collins, letâs see if youâre satisfied with my arrangements.â
Tyler smiled.
The Great Marshalâs arrangements will never disappoint.
The three of them headed outside and they could see an army convoy approaching them.
The road would only lead to Fort Lisk.
There was no doubt the army convoy was headed their way.
Fort Lisk had been isolated for several years.
Why is an army convoy here?
The villagers thought the convoy was here to trouble them.
Justin retorted, âYou think the army canât reach here? How delusional. They are definitely here to get rid of the rest of you hooligans. Kneel and apologize to me right now. Let Samantha marry me and become my servant. I will consider asking my father to plead for you.â
The villagers looked at Samantha as their expressions stiffened.
She felt indignant at her own unfortunate fate, and her first reaction was to beg at Justin.
However, Zeke patted her on the shoulders. âDonât worry, Samantha. Iâve got your back.â
