Chapter 995
Lord Protector Novel
Ben smiled bitterly.
Zeke was capable, but he was also arrogant.
The Sullivan family were nobles, so the Lewis family and the Williams family were no match for them.
Even though Zeke mightâve destroyed the Lewis family and the Williams family, he was nothing but an ant before the Sullivans.
Ben said, âThe Sullivans are nobles, and I have no right to contact them. Aside from your parents, no one in Atheville can contact them.â
Zeke smirked, âThatâs not true. From what I know, those who use black magic have the same ancestors. Theodore Luna from the Atheville Lunas is skilled in black magic, so I believe he can contact the Sullivans.â
Ben pondered. âMm, I think there were rumors that Theodore is the representative of the Sullivans in Atheville.â
âOh? Seems like the Sullivans are, indeed, special. Even Theodore is just a representative for them.â
âAlright then. Let me get rid of Theodore before going to the Sullivans.â
Ben smiled wryly.
Looks like Zeke hasnât realized how capable Theodore and the nobles are.
Ben told him, âLetâs not talk about the Sullivans for now. Sir, are you going to expel everyone from the Williams family?â
âActually, they have been telling everyone you are dead. They might be cursing you, but if you think of it, they had helped you to lie to the Sullivans who never came to you.â
âBesides, I owe a favor to Lucille. Sheâs old, and I canât bear to see her homeless at this age.â
Zeke agreed. âOkay, sure. You can call the shots.â
âBy the way, I need your help to merge the Lewis family into the Williams family. I want Linton Group to take over both families gradually.â
Ben nodded. âSure, no problem.â
When the Williamses knew they could remain in the family, they were utterly relieved.
However, instead of being grateful to Zeke, their hatred for him increased.
If Zeke didnât appear, they would still be a prominent family, enjoying their power and wealth.
Since the Williams Manor was a sad place for Zeke, he refused to stay there any longer.
After that, he drove to Trust Media in search of Lacey.
âLinton Group will take over the Lewis family and the Williams family before taking over the noblesâthe Sullivan family. Lacey will be regarded as a nobility, then.â
âHmm, sheâll gain more experience and knowledge after this. Perhaps she can accept that Iâm the Great Marshal by then. Good. I can tell Lacey my real identity after we take over the Sullivan family,â he mused.
Suddenly, Zekeâs phone started ringing with a call from an unknown number.
âWho is this?â Zeke answered.
A pleasant female voice greeted him. âZeke, I-Iâm your mother, Faith Sullivan. Iâm being held against my will. Listen, the Sullivans had found out youâre still alive. They will send someone to get you.
Escape as soon as you canââ
Suddenly, it sounded noisy on the other end of the line. It was as if someone had grabbed the phone away from Faith.
Mother?
To Zeke, the term was both strange yet sacred.
An awful feeling overwhelmed Zeke despite his attempts to keep it at bay.
Soon after that, someone elseâs voice sounded from the other side of the phone - it was a vicious-
sounding old woman.
âZeke Williams, I am your grandmother...â
Zeke cut her off icily. âGrandmother? Ha! Youâre nothing but a wolf who wants her grandsonâs heart.â
âHmm, sheâll goin more experience ond knowledge ofter this. Perhops she con occept thot Iâm the Greot Morshol by then. Good. I con tell Locey my reol identity ofter we toke over the Sullivon fomily,â he mused.
Suddenly, Zekeâs phone storted ringing with o coll from on unknown number.
âWho is this?â Zeke onswered.
A pleosont femole voice greeted him. âZeke, I-Iâm your mother, Foith Sullivon. Iâm being held ogoinst my will. Listen, the Sullivons hod found out youâre still olive. They will send someone to get you.
Escope os soon os you conââ
Suddenly, it sounded noisy on the other end of the line. It wos os if someone hod grobbed the phone owoy from Foith.
Mother?
To Zeke, the term wos both stronge yet socred.
An owful feeling overwhelmed Zeke despite his ottempts to keep it ot boy.
Soon ofter thot, someone elseâs voice sounded from the other side of the phone - it wos o vicious-
sounding old womon.
âZeke Willioms, I om your grondmother...â
Zeke cut her off icily. âGrondmother? Ho! Youâre nothing but o wolf who wonts her grondsonâs heort.â
