Chapter 1212
Lord Protector Novel
Isnât she that beautiful, pure lady whom Iâve been searching desperately for?
The moment Ichiro saw Lacey, the initially sleazy and playful man made up his mind to settle down and start a family.
When Clyde heard that Ichiro had taken a liking for Lacey, he was over the moon.
If Ichiro married Lacey, he could gain a lot of benefits at no cost at all!
Firstly, if Lacey married, she would lose the right to compete for the position of the head of the family.
Secondly, he could become closer to Ichiro.
Ichiro was the second most powerful individual in Japanio.
He would most likely become the most powerful person in the future.
If he became allies with someone like him, his influence in Eurasia would skyrocket.
Hence, Clyde agreed without any hesitations.
Ichiro scanned the crowd and said, âWhy havenât I seen Ms. Hinton?â
Clyde teased, âLooks like youâve fallen in love with Lacey. Iâll not have to worry anymore if sheâs married to you.â
Ichiro said, âWell, you know that Iâve met a lot of women in the past. However, none of them, except for Ms. Lacey, could make me fall in love so deeply. I wish for nothing more than to marry her today.â
Clyde applauded. âGood idea. Why donât we arrange for you to marry her today?â
Ichiro was elated. âCan we really do that? Thatâs great! Iâll ask someone to send the wedding gifts over.â
Clyde replied, âIâll tell Lacey to come back now. Weâll decorate the hall right away. When Lacey returns, weâll start the marriage ceremony and both of you can enjoy the night together.â
The Thisleton family became very busy. They filled the mansion with celebratory decorations and lightings.
Ten minutes later, Lacey and her family arrived at the Thisleton Manor.
When Lacey saw the wedding decorations plastered all over the manor, she felt very suspicious.
âWhatâs happening today? Why is the place bustling with enthusiasm?â Lacey asked a maid.
The maid replied, âYouâve finally returned, Ms. Hinton. Itâs your wedding day today! Mr. Thisleton was looking for you everywhere.â
What the f***?
Lacey was puzzled. âMy wedding day? Zeke, did you arrange this?â
Lacey subconsciously thought that this was a surprise Zeke prepared for her. She assumed that Zeke wanted to marry her again and start afresh.
However, Zeke shook his head. âNo.â
âWhatâs going on?â Lacey asked the maid.
She replied, âMr. Ichiro Yamano is going to marry you soon! Donât you know that?â
âF***!â A look of fury crossed Laceyâs face.
Indeed, that guy had confessed to her in the morning.
However, Lacey rejected him bluntly and without hesitation.
She had never expected Clyde to take matters into his own hands and matchmake her with Ichiro!
They were even going to wed today!
This was outrageous!
Zeke suddenly asked, âIchiro Yamano? Is he from Japanio?â
The maid nodded. âHeâs even the prince of Japanio.â
Zeke scoffed coldly.
When he led the Alpha Suicide Squad to conquer the nine countries, Japanio was the first one to surrender.
Ichiroâs father, who was the King of Japanio, signed the Nine Nations Treaty of Alliance personally and even gave a public apology to Zeke.
If even his father did not dare to offend me, how dare he humiliate my wife? Heâs going to die.
Zeke consoled, âLetâs go in, Lacey. If anything happens, Iâll be there for you.â
However, Lacey hesitated.
Ichiro was a diplomatic ally. Furthermore, as a prince, he was extremely influential.
Although Zeke was a disciple of the Great Marshal, even the Great Marshal himself might not be able to do anything to Ichiro. Naturally, Zeke could not either.
She decided to escape this place so that she would not drag Zeke down with her.
However, Zeke held Laceyâs hand and walked into the living room.
