Chapter 837
Lord Protector Novel
Do all important people keep such a low profile nowadays? Yet, those who pretend to be rich are so arrogant!
The sales agents all were downright impressed with Zeke.
By now, James was on the verge of collapsing.
Zeke has a Bauhinia Royal Card. Itâs proof enough that he has issued the order to freeze my assets. I have really offended the wrong person this time.
Serena had not heard about the Bauhinia Royal Card before, thus she retorted, âWhatâs there for you to be proud about? Only the flower on your card is gold-plated. Jamesâ card is entirely gold-plated. His card is far more superior to yours.
âShut up.â James berated Serena harshly.
Are you hell-bent on killing me?
Serena looked at James in disbelief, âYou... are scolding me? Did you actually scold me for the sake of that thief? Are you crazy? How can an abandoned son like him be so rich? He must have stolen the money!â
Slap!
James struck Serena across her face without hesitation. âDid you not hear me ordering you to shut up?â
She must have a death wish to accuse a member of the royalty as a thief!
Serena exclaimed through clenched teeth, âJames Jenkins, I am breaking up with you!â
James retorted, âYou ignorant woman! You are nothing but trouble! I will not want you even if you throw yourself at me!â
Zeke taunted, âI have said this before. A servant will always be a servant. She will never match up to her master.â
James rushed over to Zekeâs side and groveled before him, âYou are right. Serena is nothing but a servant. She doesnât even have the right to serve you. Mr. Williams, I am sorry. I have offended you just now. How could I not recognize an important figure like you? Please... please donât hold it against me.â
âYou are in the business of selling cemeteries?â
James nodded frantically. âYes, yes.â
âMm. Leave ten lots for me. I want to give them to people as gifts.â
He intended to gift them to the members of the four most prominent families.
Everyone was dumbfounded.
Only an important figure like him will think of giving cemetery lots to others as gifts.
James dared not reject his request. âSure, sure.â
Zeke stretched himself lazily, âI will spare you since you are so apologetic. Crawl out of here now.â
âThank you! Thank you so much!â
James wiped the sweat off his forehead in relief. At least, Iâm still alive.
He was about to leave the showroom when Wolfâs Greed stopped him.
James asked nervously, âIs... is there any other matter?â
âZeke asked you to crawl. Did you not hear what he said?â
James was stunned for a moment before he regained his senses. He nodded hurriedly. âSure, sure. I will crawl.â
With that, he went down on his knees and crawled in the direction of the exit.
With that, he went down on his knees and crawled in the direction of the exit.
Oh, my God! Serena was on the verge of collapsing.
The man whom she had regarded as her backer had actually groveled at Zekeâs feet. He had even crawled out of this place at his command. This man has no pride at all!
She growled through clenched teeth, âZeke, donât be too smug. Do you really think you are rich enough to buy all the villas here? Stop dreaming. I know the boss of the company who builds these villas. His name is Patrick. I will ask him not to sell them to you. The villas here have no lack of buyers anyway.â
Zeke smiled faintly.
I aim to lure Patrick out. I will be more than happy if you can get Patrick to come here.
Thus, Zeke intentionally provoked her, âI donât believe you know Patrick.â
âYou are asking for it.â Serena fell for his trick, and she made a call on her phone immediately.
âPatrick, where are you now? Iâm being bullied on your turf. You must stand up for me.â
It was evident from her flirtatious tone that she shared an ambiguous relationship with Patrick.
âMm, I will wait for you here.â
After hanging up the call, she acted all smug. âJust you wait, Williams. Not only will you not be able to buy a single villa, but you may also very well get beaten up today.â
