Chapter 672
Lord Protector Novel
Zeke became the center of attention immediately.
He seemed calm; despite the quizzical looks everyone was giving him. âLacey told me to do it. She wanted to invite him for our opening ceremony. Itâs my duty to complete my wifeâs requests.â
Everyone struggled to understand what he meant.
Lacey had just been joking, and no one would have expected him to actually send an invite to the Master Healer.
More importantly, everyone had underestimated just how capable Zeke Williams was!
âHow did you get him to come?â Lacey asked.
âSimple. He owed me a favor,â Zeke said. âHeâs just repaying me for my kindness.â
Lacey looked at Master Healer Lowe curiously. âIs that true, Mr. Lowe?â
The Master Healer nodded. âThat is true. Mr. Williams once saved me from certain death.â
If Zeke had not given him some timely assistance back then, he would have lost his hard-earned reputation.
As a doctor, his reputation mattered more than his own life. It was not an exaggeration to say that Zeke had saved him from certain death.
The people at the scene gasped in realization.
Lacey looked at Zeke pleadingly. âZeke, just how many secrets are you hiding? Just tell us everything!â
Zeke chuckled like a child.
You would be frozen in shock for the rest of the year if I tell you all my secrets!
Meanwhile, Mance Raider was fuming as he watched the crowd rush over to Linton Group.
His grand plan to monopolize the market was going to fail, but he refused to back down just yet.
He took a few steps forward and snarled, âDonât celebrate just yet, Zeke Williams! General North knows about your unlawful advertisements! He told me that heâll punish you as soon as possible. Linton Group wonât be spared from this!â
He looked at the crowds and yelled, âAll of you will suffer too! Youâre supporting a scammer! Get ready to face the music!â
The crowd began to back away from Linton Group out of fear.
Getting noticed by General North for the wrong reasons would not end well for them.
The commotion in front of Linton Group died down as quickly as it appeared.
Lacey and her party began to feel depressed all over again.
Lacey looked at Zeke. âWhat should we do?â
Zeke simply pulled out his phone to check the time. âYeah, he should be here soon.â
Everyone was confused.
What do you mean by âhe should be here soonâ?
Suddenly, the buzz of the crowd returned.
âOh my! Look at that! Itâs another motorcade!â
âItâs so much grander than the one General North had!â
âCould this person be above General North?â
âCould it be... The Great Marshal himself?â
âOh dear! Raider Group would be undefeatable if they managed to invite the Great Marshal!â
Everyone rushed to take a closer look at the motorcade.
Manceâs face darkened.
Did the real General North get his invitation after all?
You could have at least sent a reply! Look at the mess I have to deal with because of you!
Things were going south for Mance Raider.
He took off towards General North with his phone against his ear.
âJohn! Hide the fake General North! The real oneâs here!â
The motorcade slowed to a stop in front of Raider Group.
Hundreds of soldiers rushed out of their vehicles. A group of them surrounded Raider Group, while the other group arranged themselves before the car that was leading the motorcade.
âPlease alight, General North!â
Even the sky seemed to react to the loud rumble of the soldiersâ voices.
Everyone was shocked.
General North?
Isnât he already here?
Why is there another one?
