Chapter 667
Lord Protector Novel
Mance Raiderâs party arrived at the entrance of Linton Group soon after.
Lacey Hinton began to panic when she saw them charging towards Linton Group at full speed.
She decided to retreat into the building to avoid getting publicly shamed.
However, Zeke stopped her before she could do so. âLacey, youâre only going to make things worse if you run away now.â
âYouâll have to face the problem head-on in order to solve it.â
Lacey sighed inwardly.
She would have done exactly that if it were possible.
She doubted she would be able to find a solution to the problem even if she faced it head-on.
At that point in time, there was nothing left but humiliation.
Mance closed in on them with his party.
Aaron, Emily and Mance had already discussed the methods they would use to humiliate the people of Linton Group.
The moment they got to the entrance of Linton Group, Aaron stepped forward and bellowed, âNancy Hinton! Get over here now!â
âThe Hintons from Oakheart no longer have anything to do with the Hintons from Riverdale, so why are you still siding with them?â
Nancy Hinton remained silent and stayed by Laceyâs side stubbornly.
âHey, are you listening? Youâre being disrespectful to the entire Hinton family!â Michael Hinton yelled.
âGrandpa, sheâs a traitor just like the rest of them! Just chase them out!â
âYouâre such a disappointment to me, Nancy Hinton,â Aaron growled.
âFrom now on, youâre no longer part of the Hintons!â
He had already kicked Nancy out of the family back at the Whiteridge project department, but he did not mind doing it again to publicly shame her and the Linton Group.
Nancy simply sighed.
She was not too disappointed, since the Hintons have already let her down way too many times.
Zeke patted her on the shoulder. âWhy the long face? Theyâre just being conceited, so just ignore them.
I promise Iâll make them beg for your return.â
Aaron scoffed and said, âReturn? For what? To waste our food? You think we need her to be around?
Ms. Clemons, if you donât mind, you may take over Nancyâs role from now on.â
Emily smiled. âThank you, Mr. Hinton. Iâll do my best.â
Nancy was shocked beyond comprehension.
Her role in the Hinton family was pivotal and crucial, but Aaron did not even hesitate to give her role to someone outside of the family once he kicked her out.
Looks like Iâm nothing to them...
Emily smiled arrogantly. âI came to thank you, Zeke. Iâm grateful that you chose not to marry me back then. If not, I wouldnât be able to climb the ranks in the Hinton family. Most importantly, I wouldnât be able to meet the man of my dreams!â
Without warning, Emily pulled out two invitation cards from her pocket and threw them at Zeke and Lacey.
However, instead of catching the cards, they let the cards fall onto the ground with a loud plop.
âWeâre getting married next month, and youâre invited to the wedding. Donât you see, Zeke Williams?
Dumping you is the best decision of my life!â
Zeke chuckled and said, âWell, looks like Iâve underestimated just how stupid and childish you are. Are you living in a fairytale? Youâre just a toy to him. He wonât take you seriously!â
âGet out of my face!â Emily snarled. âYouâre just being jealous of me. I guess thereâs nothing you can do besides insulting me, am I right? As for you, Lacey Hinton, youâre nothing compared to me! Iâve always been better than you, and thatâs going to be true forever! Youâre only fit to be my slave!â
