The groom was incensed. “You guys better think of the consequences of your own actions...”
He did not get to finish. The villagers chased him away.
Justin hurled the bridal bouquet on the floor and stepped on it. “I swear that you guys will come crawling back and
beg me.”
He dashed out of the house.
A cold voice spoke, “Did I say you can go?”
The villagers were taken aback and glanced in the direction of the voice.
They noticed it was the young man who took the center seat.
Justin stopped in his tracks and looked at Zeke in disbelief.
“Who the hell are you? Why haven’t I seen you before?”
Zeke replied, “Because you were not qualified to meet me.”
Arrogant ba****d!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtJustin spat at Zeke, “My father is the second-in-command of the Bureau of Land Planning, and I’m going to succeed
him soon. Who do you think you are, the governor?”
Zeke chuckled, “A governor is nothing to me.”
The crowd was abuzz at his remark.
This young man is so cocky that he even dares to belittle the governor!
He would suffer in the hands of governor if he knew about this.
Justin was gob smacked. “You’re really one of a kind, brother. I think we could get along quite well if you’re not
trying to speak up for them today.”
Wolf’s Greed got up suddenly and dashed toward Justin. He slapped him across the face, hard.
“You’re not worthy of calling him ‘brother’. You’re humiliating him.”
Justin cupped his cheek as he fell to the floor from the momentum of the slap.
He widened his eyes at Wolf’s Greed.
A peasant just slapped me!
I can’t take this!
The villagers were dumbfounded.
This young man is being too rash. If Justin avenges himself, the two of them are going to suffer his wrath.
“Just wait! You’re going to pay for this!” Justin roared at Wolf’s Greed.
Zeke turned to Wolf’s Greed and asked, “How are the arrangements coming up?”
Wolf’s Greed looked at the time. “I think they’re going to be here soon.”
The crowd was bewildered.
What are they talking about?
What arrangements? Arriving soon?
A grieving music could be heard coming from afar.
It was apparent that the music was heading their way.
The villagers exchanged curious glances with each other and walked out to have a look.
Zeke smiled at Tyler. “Mr. Collins, let’s see if you’re satisfied with my arrangements.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTyler smiled.
The Great Marshal’s arrangements will never disappoint.
The three of them headed outside and they could see an army convoy approaching them.
The road would only lead to Fort Lisk.
There was no doubt the army convoy was headed their way.
Fort Lisk had been isolated for several years.
Why is an army convoy here?
The villagers thought the convoy was here to trouble them.
Justin retorted, “You think the army can’t reach here? How delusional. They are definitely here to get rid of the rest
of you hooligans. Kneel and apologize to me right now. Let Samantha marry me and become my servant. I will
consider asking my father to plead for you.”
The villagers looked at Samantha as their expressions stiffened.
She felt indignant at her own unfortunate fate, and her first reaction was to beg at Justin.
However, Zeke patted her on the shoulders. “Don’t worry, Samantha. I’ve got your back.”
