Bound to the Lord Protector

Chapter 104 Doubting The Potency Of The Great Marshal

Daniel was intrigued. “This Divine Doctor must be the best of the best in the medical field to be able to cure a stroke patient. But I'm afraid the Clemons are doing false advertising.” Zeke was deep in thought. Is there anyone besides me who could cure a stroke patient? If that's so, I shall compare notes with him on our medical skills. Unbeknownst to the two of them, Zeke Williams was in fact the 'Divine Doctor' mentioned by the Clemons. They reached home at the same time as Lacey and Dawn. Lacey and Dawn had busied themselves with the Love in a Fallen City project after the consummation of the opening ceremony. Hannah had prepared them a feast at home. The whole family enjoyed supper together while chatting about their daily life at work. A harmonious atmosphere surrounded the family as they enjoyed the joyous moments. “Zeke, were you the one who invited those big shots to our opening ceremony today?” asked Lacey after she was done with her meal. Zeke smiled faintly. “What do you think?” Lacey said with a bewildered look on her face, “I have no idea... That's why I'm asking you.” Dawn tried to take the heat off Zeke. “Lacey, the answer is plain as day. Evan Schneider has come to support our opening ceremony because you're the main director of the Love in a Fallen City project.” “As for Dylan, most probably Evan has requested him to arrest Adam Hinton for his commercial crime. He was just dropping by to give the opening gift.” “Whereas Liam George, the director of the Industrial and Commercial Bureau, it's reasonable for him to come and support since brother-in-law had helped to remove his kidney stone.” Lacey was looking thoughtful, “What about Leo Kingston from the Drug Administration? None of us know him personally...” “Oh... You silly girl. Liam George was pissed when he saw our clinic being shut down, that's why he called Leo Kingston over since he's the director of the Drug Administration.” “Zeke, is it true? What Dawn just said?” Lacey's eyelashes fluttered as she processed Dawn's words; her charm was irresistible. “You're beautiful,” Zeke blurted out. His response was out of place as he was captivated by Lacey's beauty. Lacey blushed in an instant. “Stop teasing me in front of Dawn.” Dawn covered her ears. “I'm deaf, I hear nothing. Don't mind me!” “Hahahaha... Dawn, you're a real hoot!” Both Daniel and Hannah were amused by Dawn and they broke into gales of laughter. Dawn had always brought joy to the family. Daniel managed to keep a straight face and said, “Although the clinic has started to gain fame, we should keep up the good work and avoid slacking off. Our clinic might be put under pressure if the Clemons really manage to invite the Divine Doctor to cure the stroke patient.” Zeke nodded in agreement, “Mm, the Divine Doctor has piqued my curiosity. I'm looking forward to meeting him.” Lacey asked curiously, “Stroke? Isn't it incurable? Even the Great Marshal can't do anything with it, can the Divine Doctor really cure a person with stroke?” Dawn detected the mention of the 'Great Marshal' and said, “Lacey, how do you know the Great Marshal can't do it? Have you tried it before? Is he really impotent?” Her words were freighted with meaning. Lacey unconsciously replied, “It's true that he can't do it, why should I try... “She trailed off when she realized it was a dirty joke, “Oh, You're such a cheeky girl! How dare you make fun of me and your brother-in-law! Come here, I'm going to teach you a lesson!” Dawn yelped as Lacey dragged her into the bedroom, “Don't worry, brother-in-law! I'll move out tomorrow and leave you guys alone in your love nest.” Zeke responded with a resigned shrug of the shoulders; apparently, the Great Marshal had waved a white flag in the face of their teasing. Impotent?! I'm a potent man! Daniel and Hannah did not chat with Zeke for long before retiring to bed. Zeke was lying on the couch when he received a message from Dawn. His jaw dropped when he saw its content.
