Chapter 990
Lord Protector Novel
Alfred nodded vigorously, heeding to Zekeâs orders.
Then Zeke brought Conrad and left while Alfred trudged out of the room.
He did not want to stay in that room for a moment longer. It was too horrifying!
Meanwhile, at the Williams Manor.
Ben, who had tipped Zeke off, was tied up and kneeling in the middle of the hall.
There was a red mark on his cheek where he had been slapped, and he was bleeding from his mouth.
Ben was merely holding on to his last breath, barely alive.
The entire Williams family, including the head of the household, Robin, had surrounded him.
Lucille felt frustrated that her seat was now taken by someone from another family.
Hence, she vented her anger on Ben.
Lucille roared, âHow dare you tip that ba****d off? If the ba****d manages to survive thanks to you, Iâll make sure to kill you!â
Even though Ben was barely breathing, he argued, âMadam, Sirâs name is Williams as well! The blood that flows within him is the Williamsâ blood! Heâs not an enemy! I can stand it if you abuse him, but why must you kill him?â
Lucille roared, âThat rascal doesnât deserve the Williams surname! Heâs disgraced the Williams! Weâll only be free from the shame when heâs dead!â
Alfred nodded vigorously, heeding to Zekeâs orders.
Then Zeke brought Conrad and left while Alfred trudged out of the room.
Ben laughed bitterly, âHeâs your grandson! How laughable!â
Lucilleâs face darkened, âHow dare you mock me? Slap him!â
âHalt!â Robin commanded. âGrandma, please remember your place. Iâm the head of the household now. Your words hold no weight.â
Instantly, Lucilleâs face flushed red, and apologized, âSorry, I couldnât keep my emotions in check. Very well then, please present your verdict.â
Lucilleâs heart bled when she said that.
Robin mentioned, âI heard that the Williams family raised a few Tibetan Mastiffs. Theyâre ferocious, arenât they? Feed him to the hounds!â
Everyone present inhaled sharply. What a vicious woman! Ben simply tipped someone off, but she wants him dead! Thatâs unreasonable!
Ben had served in the Williams family for a long time, and most of them no longer treated him as an outsider. Thus, none of them could bear to feed him to the dogs and turned to Lucille for help.
Seeing that no one moved, Robin flew into a rage, âDid I stutter?â
Lucille sighed, âWhat are you waiting for? Didnât you hear the head of the household?â
Two members of the Williams family stared at Ben with a pained expression.
Ben burst into laughter, âHahaha! The noble Williams family that had hundreds of years of history had produced many outstanding men! However, the head of the household is now an outsider, and you guys have to listen to her! Youâre all a disgrace to the ancestors! None of you are fit to call yourself a Williams!â
These words had hit the Williams family hard. In order to save their pride, they started attacking Ben.
âShut up. Youâre but a servant! Youâve got no right to interfere in the family affairs!â
âMs. Robin is married to Zach, so sheâs part of the Williams family, not an outsider!â
âWhatâs more, the Lewis family is so powerful and has a general! Theyâre even related to the Tulle organization! Itâs a blessing for the Williams family that theyâre willing to back us up!â
Nevertheless, Ben ignored them and continued laughing hysterically, âThe Williams family has a powerful man whoâs able to save the family, but the Williams family refuses to acknowledge him and even wants him dead! Alas, is this our fate?â
