Chapter 669
Lord Protector Novel
Mance Raider wouldnât dare to arrange for someone to stand in for General North, would he?
The motorcade slowed to a stop in front of the Raider Group.
The soldiers alighted from their vehicles and surrounded the limousine as they shouted in unison, âPlease alight, General North!â
Everyone looked on with bated breaths and widened eyes.
Mance Raider was giddy with excitement. Iâm about to meet General North himself!
A tall man emerged from the limousine as the doors opened slowly.
Clad in the uniform of the military as well as shiny, black boots, he looked like a general who had gone through countless battles.
Despite the mask and sunglasses that he donned; his dominating aura was not discounted by even a single bit.
The people continued to look on with anticipation.
Zeke, on the other hand, was furious.
Heâs not the real General North!
I canât believe he found someone to impersonate him!
I bet even his boss wonât be able to save him this time round!
After all, impersonating a high-ranking military official required the approval of the chief colonel.
Mance Raider rushed forwards and bowed low. âWelcome to Raider Group, General! I am honored to be your host today.â
âGeneral Northâ smiled and said, âMance, no need for such formalities. Weâve known each other for so long, after all. Shall we go in? Letâs not delay the ceremony any longer.â
âAlright,â Mance said, leading âGeneral Northâ into the building.
The crowd erupted.
âDid I hear that right?â
âTheyâre old friends?â
No one had expected to hear that.
They figured that there would be no reason for Raider Group to fail if that was the case.
âHaha! Linton Group is just asking for trouble!â
The moment General North disappeared into the building, the crowd outside buzzed about his relationship with Mance Raider.
Nancy watched everything unfold before her eyes in a daze.
She was almost convinced that General North was her coveted hero.
However, she found his aura rather disappointing.
âDid I get the wrong person?â Nancy whispered; her brows furrowed together. âIs my hero not General North?â
Zeke smiled. âYou didnât get the wrong person. The âGeneral Northâ youâre seeing is fake.â
Everyone whirled around to glare at him.
Heâs blabbering again!
No one would dare to impersonate General North unless they have a death wish or something!
The silence around them grew louder as more and more of Linton Groupâs employees sneaked out to catch a glimpse of General North.
Lacey took a deep breath and said, âAlright. The ceremonyâs over. Letâs go home.â
Everyone sighed and turned around to retreat into the building.
Zeke was about to stop them when someone in the crowd yelled, âLook! Itâs Master Healer Lowe!â
The crowd roared.
âQuick! Get Mr. Raider! He needs to be here!â someone hollered.
The staff near the entrance of Raider Group ran off to fetch Mance immediately.
Mance rushed out of the building just moments later to welcome the Master Healer.
âLetâs go, Lacey,â Zeke said.
âAre you crazy? Havenât you had enough of getting shamed?â Lacey growled.
Zeke pondered over it for a moment. âIndeed. It would be pretty insulting for us to welcome him, considering our status.â
