Chapter 467
Lord Protector Novel
Zeke continued to drive his car with a carefree manner after he hung up the phone.
He arrived at the highwayâs exit half an hour later.
Zeke saw a group of traffic officers surrounding Nancyâs Maserati the moment he exited the toll plaza.
Nancy was on the verge of tears. She begged the traffic officers pitifully, âI know I made a mistake, Mr.
Officer. Please forgive me this once. I will not repeat it again.â
The captain of the traffic officers was indifferent to all forms of begging. âPlease cooperate with us by showing us your driving license and vehicle registration certificate.â
Nancy continued to plead as she grabbed and shook the captainâs arm, âMr. Officer, please show some mercy. Please let me off the hook this once. My driving license will be revoked if I receive another demerit. It wasnât easy for me to obtain the license. A kind person like you will live a blessed life.â
Zekeâs widened his eyes in disbelief.
He did not expect Nancy, who was always mocking others in her high and mighty attitude, would know how to act coquettish in front of others.
Moreover, she appeared to be attractive in that skittish manner.
This is such a rare sight to behold!
But the captain did not take pity on her. âWhy did you go against the law when you already knew how difficult it is to obtain a driving license? Thereâs no one else to blame except for yourself in this case.
Please do not waste our time. Show us your driving license and vehicle registration certificate.â
Nancy was in despair.
At that moment, she saw Zeke Williams.
She pointed at Zeke and said, âMr. Officer, I want to make amends for my mistake by reporting him. He convinced me to go over the speed limit earlier. He should be held responsible. Look, Iâve done a good deed. Donât you think you should let me off the hook now?â
Zeke was speechless at her claim. Is she trying to drag me into this mess?
Zeke sneered, âThatâs hypocrisy at its finest, Nancy Hinton. You were the one who challenged me to a race just now. I lost to you because I did not want to go over the speed limit. Donât you dare slander a law-abiding citizen like me.â
âDo you think your lies will go undetected by these just and brave traffic officers?â Nancy retorted, âMr.
Officer, look at me. I am an obedient girl. Do I look like someone who will tell lies? In contrast, that man has got a perverted and lowly appearance. He resembles a cheater at first glance. Please hurry up and arrest him.â
âNancy Hinton, youâre defaming me. Fine, donât blame me for doing the same to you. Get out of the way, all of you. Iâm going to run her over with the car.â
âDid you hear that, Mr. Officer? Heâs not just a cheater, but heâs also violent. Heâs trying to kill me just because of an argument.â
âOh, Nancy. I wanted to help you initially. But I guess you do not need my assistance, after all.â
âWho are you trying to impress here? Do you think youâre capable of helping me? Pfft,â Nancy continued in disdain, âYouâre just a kept-man. You are only slightly useful because my sister Lacey bestowed you with some responsibility. Otherwise, youâre completely useless! Are you telling me youâre acquainted with people from the traffic department? Haha! I will never believe you.â
Zeke shrugged. âAlright then, watch and learn.â
He parked his car beside the road and got out of the car. Then Zeke saluted the traffic officers.
âThank you for your hard work, officers.â
The officers returned his salute immediately. They even bent their bodies slightly forward as if they were bowing to Zeke.
âDonât mention it. It is our duty to serve the public. What a coincidence, Mr. Williams. Are you on your way to work?â
Zeke nodded. âYes, Iâve also prepared some drinks for all of you.â
He brought out a bag containing mineral waters and handed the officers a bottle each.
âA smooth traffic keeps the country running. At times, there will be troublemakers such as drunk drivers, drivers without a driving license, car owners who modify their cars illegally. Among these offences, driving over the speed limit is certainly dangerous and unforgivable. All of you are tasked with the responsibility to deter these wrongdoers. It is a must for me to represent the public to pay my respect to all of you, our beloved officers!â
The traffic officers were touched by Zekeâs speech. They saluted him again. âWe are deeply moved by your compassion, Mr. Williams. Do not worry. We will not disappoint you. We will live up to your expectations by giving our best to carry out our responsibilities.â
