Chapter 859
Lord Protector Novel
Lacey instinctively dodged his hand. âIâm sorry Mr. Lewis, but weâre really busy. Weâll be leaving right after we wrap up the filming.â
As she spoke, Lacey turned around and prepared to leave.
âHold it right there!â Harry snapped.
âDo you have any idea who I am? Iâm the honorary consultant for the Sky Ocean Banquet. Iâm in charge of everything that goes on around here. Do you think this is a place you can just come and go as you please?â
âCome in with me. Otherwise, I guarantee that you will never be able to leave this place.â
Frightened, Lacey was about to round her crew up and leave when four of Harryâs bodyguards cut them off.
âIâm... Iâm warning you,â Lacey stammered, âIf you dare to try and funny business, my husband will make you regret it.â
âHaha!â Harry scoffed, âJust how powerful can an actressâ husband get? If he does come, Iâll break all three of his legs.â
Harry had mistaken Lacey for one of those B-list and C-list actresses.
Not far away, Wolfâs Greed looked from Zeke to Lacey, then back again. âIf Iâm not mistaken,â He began, âThis should be Lacey, right? She looks much prettier in person.â
Zeke nodded. âThatâs her.â
âHow dare that b****** Harry Lewis disrespect her like that?â Wolfâs Greed fumed, âIâm going to tear him apart.â
âWhoâs he?â Zeke asked.
âHeâs the honorary consultant my student hired,â Wolfâs Greed replied.
Zeke grunted, âFeed him to the sharks.â
âUnderstood.â Wolfâs Greed then pulled out his phone and gave his student, the person hosting the Sky Ocean Banquet, a call.
Just then, Harryâs phone started ringing.
After taking the call, he glowered maliciously at Lacey and threatened, âYou better think things through.
If you refuse to go in and have a drink with me, donât blame me when I make you do it. I want the four of you to keep an eye on her. Donât let her or any of the others leave. Iâve got some urgent matters to attend to.â
All four of his bodyguards nodded.
Harry then entered the venue through a special entrance.
âWolfâs Greed,â Zeke said, âIâll take care of Lily and him myself later. Tell your people to stand down.
Theyâre mine.â
Wolfâs Greed nodded.
Just then, Zekeâs phone started ringing.
Realizing that it was Laceyâs, he hastily answered the call.
Lacey sounded as though she was on the verge of tears. âZeke, where are you? Weâve been surrounded by some people outside the entrance for the Sky Ocean Banquet. What should I do?â
âDonât panic, Lacey,â Zeke assured her, âIâll send someone to come rescue you right away.â
âYou have connections here in Atheville?â Lacey asked incredulously.
âThatâs right. The boss of the Sky Ocean Banquet is my friend.â
âCan you please stop horsing around, Zeke?â Lacey implored, âHow could you possibly know the boss of the Sky Ocean Banquet? What should I do now? Will involving the police help matters?â
Drawing in a deep breath, Zeke said, âLacey, trust me. Those people harassing you now will all be fed to the sharks later.â
âYouâll then be able to film wherever you please within the Sky Ocean Banquet.â
Getting a little frustrated, Lacey snapped, âZeke, Iâm not joking. I really meant what I said.â
âSo did I,â Zeke replied exasperatedly, âDonât worry, just give me ten minutes.â
âFine,â Lacey conceded, âYou have ten minutes.â
After she had hung up the phone, Mia asked her anxiously, âMs. Hinton, what did Mr. Williams say?â
âDonât panic, Lacey,â Zeke assured her, âIâll send someone to come rescue you right away.â
