Chapter 347
Lord Protector Novel
âHey! Watch where youâre going!â Nancy lashed out at the couple.
After realizing that the woman in front of him was Nancy, Marcel felt a jolt of anger.
Nancy Hinton... A member of the Hinton family.
Just as he was about to hurl some nasty insults at the two women, the man unwittingly noticed a picture tattooed on Nancyâs nails.
Immediately, the pupils of his eyes constricted in shock, and he stopped himself from speaking.
The picture on her nails looks really familiar.
Marcel had come across a similar picture before, which was shown to him by T-Rex.
T-Rex told him that the man in the picture was Jeremy.
Jeremy could command more than a million men with a mere wave, wiping out the underworld forces in Riverdale.
The picture was taken at the East Skuld abandoned warehouse.
To have Jeremyâs picture tattooed on her nails, it was highly likely that she was his woman!
Marcel also suddenly recalled that when he arrived at the private room with the Riverdale Hintonâs, Nancy Hinton was already waiting in the room. To him, that was enough to validate his suspicions.
Ah, so when T-Rex instructed me to take care of the Hintonâs, he was referring to just Nancy Hinton, and not the Riverdale Hintonâs.
Until now, Marcel was still not aware that Zeke, who was also in the private room, was their boss... T-
Rex did not tell him about it.
Marcel suddenly dropped to his knees and apologized profusely, âMadam, Iâm so sorry to have knocked into you. I should have been more careful. Please forgive me!â
Both Nancy and Lacey were startled by Marcelâs abrupt action.
It was just a knock; did he have to kneel down???
Why did he address Nancy as âMadamâ? Whatâs going on?
âYou must have been mistaken, Iâm not your âMadamâ,â Nancy clarified immediately.
Marcel frowned and replied, âHow is it possible? If you are not my bossâ woman, why would you tattoo his picture on your nails?â
Nancy was stunned for a moment before answering, âYour bossâ picture?â
After eyeing the picture on her nails, Nancy seemed to have come to a realization and was thrilled at once. âAre you saying that... You mean this back view in the picture belongs to your boss?â
âOf course,â Marcel nodded.
Nancy was so emotional that tears had already welled up in her eyes. âLacey, did you hear that? My hero is the leader of the underworld forces in Riverdale!â
Lacey furrowed her brows as she replied, âThat doesnât seem right, Nancy. Isnât their boss grandpa Aaronâs relative?â
âOh! regarding that, I have to apologize. I have made a mistake previously. My boss isnât Aaron Hintonâs relative,â Marcel explained promptly.
âNot a relative? Then why did you let us in?â Lacey asked.
âBesides, Nancyâs fondness for your boss is unrequited. Your boss does not even know of her existence,â she continued.
Nancy said softly, âLacey, could it be that my hero had found out about my feelings for him, and he feels the same way for me, thatâs why heâs let us in?â
âNancy, that sounds very possible to me!â Lacey was hyped up at Nancyâs hypothesis as well.
Nancy was on the verge of tears as she exclaimed, âEverything is starting to make sense now. First, the reason Zeke wasnât punished for the trouble he created must be because my hero had let him off on my account. Then, my hero invited you and your parents here because he knew that we were on good terms. As for why my grandpa and the rest were refused entry, it must be because my hero knew that they were always mean to me and heâs upset with them. But if thatâs the case, why were they allowed to come in afterward? They even claimed that your boss is related to them... â
Marcel started apologizing profusely once again and admitted, âItâs all my fault. T-Rex had instructed me to take special care of you, but I misunderstood his words. Iâd assumed that he wanted me to take care of the Riverdale Hintons, thatâs why Iâd ended up letting them in.â
