Chapter 383
Lord Protector Novel
After Dawn and Sofia signed the contract, the former insisted to visit her God-fatherrents.
Zeke could not refuse her, thus, he had to bring her along.
Dawn was glib-tongued and kept greeting both elderly as âMomâ and âDadâ. They were delighted with her and were grinning from ear to ear.
Soon after that, Dawn received some gifts from them.
After dinner, Zeke received a call from Lacey.
She would be returning to Oakheart City soon, so she wanted him to pick her up.
Before leaving, Zeke Williams pulled Sofia aside and instructed her, âI am representing the project department to sign a cooperation contract with Nancy. That girl may drop by later and attempt to find out the boss of this project. Donât tell her itâs me.â
Deep down in her heart, Nancy firmly believed that her hero had acquired this project.
If Sofia tells her that Iâm the boss, then my identity will be revealed. What if she pesters me to no end after she finds out?
âKiddo, tell me the truth. What is your relationship with Nancy Hinton? Why must you hide your identity?â
âWe have a lot of misunderstandings, which canât be cleared up easily.â
âOh, another ambiguous relationship.â Sofia sighed, âAm I right that your relationship with Dawnie is not that simple too? Kiddo, I know you are rich now. But no matter how rich you are, you should not toy with a girlâs feelings. Wonât the girl be very upset if she finds out that you have more than one girlfriend?â
What the f*** is she talking about? Hearing her comments, Zekeâs forehead was beaded with sweat that instant.
âSofia, what are you thinking about? Am I such a playboy to you?â Zeke Williams wiped the sweat off his forehead.
Sofia pondered for a while before she shook her head, âNo.â
âThen thatâs it. Donât worry. I will only love Lacey my whole life. I wonât let her down.â
That immediately brought a smile unto Sofiaâs face, âBring her here next time. I have prepared a gift for her, so I want to pass it to her personally.â
âSure.â
Zeke nodded and left after that.
The smile on Sofiaâs face froze, and her eyes turned red.
Why do I feel so upset when Zeke claimed to love Lacey only in his whole life?
Can it be...
Sofia shook her head frantically. No. Heâs a kiddo, so itâs not possible. I canât... This fellow has become so charming now. No wonder the girls around him adore him.
In the meantime, Nancy arrived shortly after Zeke left.
After introducing herself to Sofia, both of them started discussing the contract.
It was a rather jovial discussion.
After their discussion on strategic cooperation ended, Nancy said suddenly, âSofia, can I see your boss?â
Remembering Zekeâs instructions not to expose him, she said, âIâm sorry. I donât know my bossâs whereabouts, as I have never seen him before. But donât worry. I can represent my boss and have the complete say in this project. You can tell me if there are any problems, so thereâs no need to bother him.â
âOh.â Nancyâs face fell with disappointment upon hearing that.
