Chapter 323
Lord Protector Novel
Lacey inhaled deeply. âIf youâre sure that your hero drives this car, that should be the truth.â
âImpossible, impossible!â Lacey screamed. She took out her phone and ran to stand behind Zeke to compare his figure to the photo of her hero.
He really looks like my hero!
Nancy wanted to die when she found out the truth.
If this kept man is my hero, Iâd rather die.
Zeke was stunned when he saw that photo.
Oh no. Why did she take that photo of Sole Wolf and the soldiers kneeling before me?
Looks like I can no longer hide my identity as the Great Marshal.
Well, I never thought that a woman would expose me after Iâve kept that a secret for so long.
Why did you keep ruining things for me?
Will Lacey accept the fact that Iâm the Great Marshal?
He took a deep breath to calm himself down before he demanded, âNancy Hinton, why did you take a photo of me secretly?â
Nancyâs eyes reddened. âAre you sure the man in the photo is you?â
Zeke nodded.
Nancy was in despair.
Damn it, Iâve fallen in love with a kept man.
How disgusting.
Oh dear, why do I have to suffer from this...
Wait, something doesnât sound right.
Suddenly, she recalled the Santana drove by her hero was fitted with Mercedes-Benzâs tires.
However, this Santanaâs tires were the original ones.
That means that this car was not her heroâs car. It merely looked like his car.
The carâs owner, Zeke, was not her hero too.
The figure in the photo was not Zeke.
Right then, Nancy sighed in relief.
I knew that this kept man isnât my hero.
She shot a mocking look at Zeke who had a serious expression on his face. âStop pretending. How long are you going to keep this act up?â
Zeke was lost. âIâm pretending?â
Nancy demanded, âIs this figure you?â
Zeke answered, âYes, itâs me. What about it?â
âHa! Stop talking nonsense. Youâre a kept man who asks for an allowance from your wife. Why would the soldiers kneel in front of you?â Nancy exclaimed.
âI am sure Iâve gotten it wrong. This Santana isnât my heroâs car. My heroâs car is fitted with Mercedes-
Benzâs tires, but this one has its original tires.â
Zeke was about to say that he had just changed the tires, but he stopped himself from saying that.
He did not want to admit that he was Nancyâs hero. Since that woman found a reason to refute herself, he should take advantage of the situation.
He replied calmly, âOh, that photoâs too blurry. I mustâve gotten it wrong. That isnât me.â
Nancy heaved out a huge sigh of relief. âHa! I knew it. You are nothing compared to my hero. Lacey, I need to go. Remember your promise to help me find my hero.â
âGot it,â Lacey agreed.
Nancy kissed the photo on her nails affectionately. âHero, Iâll find you no matter what.â
After that, she climbed into her Maserati and sped away.
