Lord Protector Novel

Chapter 132

After hanging up the call, Lacey said, “I need some time to reconsider the condition that you put forward. I will give you an answer tomorrow.” 

She tried to wrestle with them, stalling for time.

“Hmph,” Logan sniggered. “Don't play tricks with me. We ain't got time for you.”

“It's either you hand over all the companies under your name to me now, or I'll issue an arrest warrant.”

“Even if he flees to the ends of the earth, we'll be able to catch him with the arrest warrant.”

“And once he's arrested, we'll execute him on the spot!”

Execute him on the spot?

Lacey fell into a pool of despair.

Forget it. Zeke's life is more important.

She could still start from scratch, but without Zeke, her life would be a living hell.

She was just about to agree when Daniel broke out laughing maniacally. “Nice one, you guys! Way to go!”

“Fine. I'll admit I killed Darren Collins and the Fearsome Foursome. This has nothing to do with other people. It is all on me.”

Lacey and Hannah were dumbstruck.

Daniel, who had always been a wimp, is now standing up to the pressure of death and taking the blame for Zeke?

This was the Daniel Hinton they knew!

However, now wasn't the time for him to show his verve.

“Dad, don't be impulsive,” Lacey quickly advised. “This matter can definitely be resolved.”

“If worse comes to worst, we'll just give up on the business. They can have it. We can always start over again.”

Daniel smiled miserably. “Lacey, don't be silly. A dog will never be satisfied with just a bone.”

“What's going to happen next if you give them the factory this time? They will hold you down for the rest of your life!”

“I don't wish for my daughter to become other people's puppet!”

Thereafter, he looked at Adam with red eyes. “Listen, dad, it was you who forced your son to death!”

“I hope you send me off on the day I go to the execution ground, so you can watch your own son bleed to death!”

Instead of feeling guilty, Adam ripped at him. “Daniel Hinton, giving birth to you was the worst decision I've ever made in this life.”

“What kind of ecstasy did that ba****d feed you that you're willing to die for him?”

“Speak another word on behalf of Williams and I will disown you as my son.”

“Disown me?” Daniel sneered. “Dad, have you forgotten how many times you've said this to me?”

“Weren't you always worried I'll fight for the inheritance, brother? Well, I guess no one will fight with you now after I've died.”

“Dad, don't be impulsive,” Lacey quickly advised. “This matter can definitely be resolved.”

“Also, which of dad's things are not mine and Lacey's homage to him? What have you ever given dad?”

“Bullshit,” Jeremy cursed. “Who cares about dad's inheritance?”

“No?” Daniel said. “Then why did you stop the doctors from saving dad the last time he collapsed? Weren't you hoping for dad to die soon?” 

Adam's face scrunched up. “Jeremy stopped the doctors from saving me? Jeremy, didn't you say that it was Daniel who deterred them from saving me?”

Jeremy's expression turned unnatural. He quickly changed the subject. “Dad, don't listen to him. He's sowing discord.”

“Officer Hugh, aren't you guys going to arrest him?”

Logan waved his hand, and the four soldiers he had brought with him immediately apprehended Daniel.

“Since you're courting death, I'll give you what you want!”

“Of course, this is just the beginning. The Hinton family shall soon be buried with you!”

As it was rush hour, many neighbours in the neighbourhood were getting ready to go to work.

Consequently, the neighbours were attracted by the commotion here.

After figuring out what exactly happened, the neighbours were abustle and astir.

“Also, which of dad's things are not mine and Lacey's homage to him? What have you ever given dad?”noveldrama
