Lord Protector Novel

Rhett hastily said, “Sir, how did you find out about that? Are you concerned about Mitxel Group? It is our absolute

honor to be at the receiving end of your concern.”

“To be frank with you, I'm the person in charge of this project,” Zeke interrupted. “Which companies have been

trying to collaborate with you for Project Mitxel?”

Rhett quickly replied, “There are over twenty companies-”

“I want to know which two companies are most likely to get the job.”

Rhett replied, “The two main companies would be Eurasia's Linton Group and Intercontinental Group.”

“Who do you think will be more likely to get the opportunity to work on Project Mitxel?”

“For now, my family prefers Intercontinental Group over Linton Group.”

Zeke hummed in contemplation. “I'd like Linton Group to get the opportunity instead. Will you be able to make that

happen?”

Rhett quickly answered, “Sir, may I know what your relationship with Linton Group is?”

Zeke then said, “The owner of Linton Group is my wife, Lacey Hinton.”

“Does that mean that Linton Group is technically your business as well?”

“You could say that.”

At that, Rhett began sounding excited. His voice trembled as he said, “Sir, it is Mitxel Group's honor to be working

with you. All right, Mitxel Group will choose Linton Group over the others.”

Rhett hostily soid, “Sir, how did you find out obout thot? Are you concerned obout Mitxel Group? It is our obsolute

honor to be ot the receiving end of your concern.”

“To be fronk with you, I'm the person in chorge of this project,” Zeke interrupted. “Which componies hove been

trying to colloborote with you for Project Mitxel?”

Rhett quickly replied, “There ore over twenty componies-”

“I wont to know which two componies ore most likely to get the job.”

Rhett replied, “The two moin componies would be Eurosio's Linton Group ond Intercontinentol Group.”

“Who do you think will be more likely to get the opportunity to work on Project Mitxel?”

“For now, my fomily prefers Intercontinentol Group over Linton Group.”

Zeke hummed in contemplotion. “I'd like Linton Group to get the opportunity insteod. Will you be oble to moke thot

hoppen?”

Rhett quickly onswered, “Sir, moy I know whot your relotionship with Linton Group is?”

Zeke then soid, “The owner of Linton Group is my wife, Locey Hinton.”

“Does thot meon thot Linton Group is technicolly your business os well?”

“You could soy thot.”

At thot, Rhett begon sounding excited. His voice trembled os he soid, “Sir, it is Mitxel Group's honor to be working

with you. All right, Mitxel Group will choose Linton Group over the others.”

“Okay,” came Zeke's emotionless reply before he moved to end the call.

To him, making Mitxel Group choose to work with Linton Group was akin to the simple act of a father asking his son

to get him a glass of water.

Right as Zeke was about to end the call, Rhett hastily said, “Sir, may I ask you a question? Have you reconsidered

the matter on me learning from you?”

“Oh? Are you trying to negotiate with me? Are you planning not to work with Linton Group if I don't take you in as a

disciple? Then, forget it. Linton Group won't work with you. Goodbye.”

“Wait, no!” Rhett panicked. “Mr. Williams, I've made a mistake. I shouldn't have said that. It really is Mitxel Group's

honor to be working with Linton Group. We're the ones who should be pleasured to work for Linton Group. How

could I have possibly tried to negotiate with you?”

“Don't worry, Mr. Williams. I'll be in charge of this project, and I'll personally liaise with the person in charge of

Linton Group. Sir, if you're still not at ease, I hope you'll be able to work with me on the project instead.”

However, Zeke icily said, “That'll depend on my schedule. If I'm free, I'll meet with you.”

With that, the call ended.

Nevertheless, Rhett was still thrilled.

What does it feel like to be working with my idol? At that moment, Rhett had the answer to that question.

Overjoyed, he downed the glass of red wine in front of him.

“If my memory serves me right, the one in charge of looking for our collaboration partner is Lucy. I should call her

now and get her to contact Linton Group. No, wait. Will the Great Marshal think that I'm insincere if I sent my

subordinate for the business meeting instead? Hmm, I'll fly to Eurasia and talk to Linton Group myself. Where's my

assistant? Hey, buy a ticket to Eurasia for me. No, wait, I should borrow my father's private jet to get there instead.

That'll be quicker.”

Without daring to waste any more time, Rhett left.

Meanwhile, after Zeke went back into the car, he saw Emma frowning and looking down.

Thus, Zeke asked, “Emma, what's the matter?”

Emma sighed. “Mitxel Group's manager Lucy called me just now. She wanted to have a chat with me.”

“That's a good thing, isn't it?” Zeke asked. “She might want to chat with you about the details of the collaboration.”

Emma shook her head. “That's not it. Sheldon Guerrero of Intercontinental Group will be there as well. Lucy sounds

like she's not that interested in Linton Group but more interested in Intercontinental Group. I have to admit that

Linton Group's development overseas isn't as good as Intercontinental Group's.”
