Chapter 1147
Lord Protector Novel
Julian chuckled darkly. âStop with the act. Do you really not know who I am? Should I call you sis, or should I just call you Lacey?â
Lacey was confused. âSis? What do you mean?â
Julian looked at Lacey suspiciously.
Her confusion seemed genuine.
Could it be that she hasnât heard of her true identity yet?
That made things much easier for Julian.
He asked carefully, âLacey, do you know who the Thistleton family is?â
Lacey was starting to lose her temper. âWho are you? Quit with the nonsense. I donât know who the Thistleton family is, and Iâm not your sister, either. Please leave.â
Julian was overjoyed.
So Lacey really doesnât know who she is.
âYou and the Linton Group are the ones who have to leave,â Julian stated as a matter of fact.
âWhat for?â
âThe Linton Group is a threat to both the Great Marshal and Ares. Both of them have demanded all of you move out of Atheville,â Julian said.
How can that be?
Lacey found what he had just told her hard to believe. âThe new Linton Group has no way of catching neither the Great Marshal nor Aresâ attention, much less be a threat to them. Youâre making things up.â
Julian sighed. âYou want me to pull out the big guns? Fine. Iâm the firstborn of Ares and an apprentice to the Great Marshal. The Linton Group is not only a threat to them but to me as well. I was the one who asked Ares and the Great Marshal to make such a demand. You should know what to do.â
Lacey instantly flew into a panic.
If everything he had just said was true, the Linton Group wouldnât be able to survive much longer.
Zeke was also a student of the Great Marshal, but the man in front of her had Aresâ additional support backing him.
His position of double privilege was enough to run Zeke to the ground.
However, the Linton Group had just moved here from Rivermouth.
It might not survive having to move everything back.
Right as she was stressing over what to do, Julianâs eyes fell upon the pregnancy test in her hand.
His expression turned stony. âWhatâs that youâre holding on to?â
Lacey obviously wasnât about to show this stranger something so private.
She hurriedly tucked the pregnancy test away. âNothing.â
Julian grew suspicious and stalked toward Lacey. âIs that a pregnancy test? Are you pregnant? Show it to me.â
Lacey was already enough of a threat to his position in the Thistleton family.
If she were to give birth to a child, that would be an even bigger threat.
It was common knowledge that Ares was fond of children. If Lacey gave birth, Ares would definitely give that child everything he had.
âScrew off!â Lacey yelled. âThis is a personal matter. You have no right to know about such things.â
However, Julian ignored her words and suddenly stepped forward, snatching the pregnancy test away.
When he saw the two lines on the small stick, his eyes glinted with anger.
Die!
The baby in Laceyâs stomach has to die.
Julian acted as if he was walking out before he suddenly closed the door and locked it. He then pulled out a dagger.
âYou have three choices. One, you jump off this building, Two, I bring you to the hospital, and you get an abortion. Three, I give you an abortion right here and now, but itâll be much more violent.â
What?
Laceyâs face paled rapidly.
How sick can the man in front of me be?
He just talked about harming the baby in my belly!
