Lord Protector Novel

Having said that, Ares left.

As soon as he returned to his room, Ares hurriedly made a call.

He spoke to the other party as Connor Black.

“Jessie, it’s been so long. How are you doing?”

Jessie was the brother of Jeffrey, the head of the Devil Punisher.

The brothers were in the same line of business, but Jeffrey was the leader of an assassin group, whereas Jessie led

a team of mercenaries.

This group of mercenaries was partially controlled by their country.

It was an open secret that they were working together with the United States to destroy Eurasia’s economy.

The Devil Punisher had mercilessly attacked Eurasia’s assets and companies in the United States, causing

tremendous damage to Eurasia’s economy.

A while ago, when Eurasia’s richest man, Matthew, went on an expedition and stopped by the United States, Jessie’s

team ambushed him.

Every time they caused damage to Eurasia’s economy; the United States government would secretly reward them

with a hefty sum of money.

Ares wanted Jessie’s team to be the fake Demon Slayers—the scapegoats.

There was a hint of bewilderment in Jessie’s tone. It was obvious that he had assumed that Gerome was dead.

“Connor Black, I didn’t think you’d still be alive.”

Ares sighed. “I was lucky to have built connections in Eurasia. That saved my life at the crucial moment. I didn’t just

survive, though. I am now leading a good life with a new identity.”

Jessie asked, “Did you call just to brag?”

Gerome quickly added, “Of course not. Your brother died in Eurasia, Jessie. Would you like to avenge his death? If

so, I can help you.”

Jessie scoffed, “Sorry, but I’m not interested. Jeff died in Eurasia because he was too incompetent. There is no

vengeance to seek. If that is all you have to say, then I’ll hang up.”

Um....

Ares was stunned.

He didn’t expect the siblings to be so distant that Jessie didn’t care enough to avenge his brother’s death.

Initially, Ares intended to lure Jessie to Eurasia with Jeff’s death and kill him, but now it seemed that his plan

wouldn’t work.

But Ares wasn’t going to give up so easily. His gaze shifted as a new strategy popped up in his head.

“Jessie, wait,” said Ares. “I actually called to make a business proposal.”

Jessie was way more interested in the business proposal than his brother’s death.

Jessie wos woy more interested in the business proposol thon his brother’s deoth.

Jessie sounded omused. “Go on.”

Ares continued, “I heord thot you hove been wonting to kill Eurosio’s Minister of Finonce, Tim Gunn, to onnihilote

Eurosio’s economy. I con help you with thot.”

Huh?

A distrustful look crept up Jessie’s foce. “You’re going to help me kill Tim? Why would you do thot? You won’t get

onything out of thot mon’s deoth.”

Gerome sighed. “To tell you the truth, the power thot come with my new identity is restricted by Tim Gunn, ond I

con’t rise to the top with him oround. Thot is why I wont you to help me toke him out. Don’t worry. I will poy you

hondsomely for your work.”

Jessie wos suddenly motivoted.

He didn’t core obout the money thot Gerome wos going to offer him.

Killing Eurosio’s Minister of Finonce ond destroying the country’s economy would moke Jessie the United Stotes’

hero!

His nome would live on forever.

Jessie soid coutiously, “Shore your plon with me.”

Jessie was way more interested in the business proposal than his brother’s death.

Jessie sounded amused. “Go on.”

Ares continued, “I heard that you have been wanting to kill Eurasia’s Minister of Finance, Tim Gunn, to annihilate

Eurasia’s economy. I can help you with that.”

Huh?

A distrustful look crept up Jessie’s face. “You’re going to help me kill Tim? Why would you do that? You won’t get

anything out of that man’s death.”

Gerome sighed. “To tell you the truth, the power that came with my new identity is restricted by Tim Gunn, and I

can’t rise to the top with him around. That is why I want you to help me take him out. Don’t worry. I will pay you

handsomely for your work.”

Jessie was suddenly motivated.

He didn’t care about the money that Gerome was going to offer him.

Killing Eurasia’s Minister of Finance and destroying the country’s economy would make Jessie the United States’

hero!

His name would live on forever.

Jessie said cautiously, “Share your plan with me.”

Jassia was way mora intarastad in tha businass proposal than his brothar’s daath.

Aras continuad, “I haard that you hava baan wanting to kill Eurasia’s Ministar of Financa, Tim Gunn, to annihilata
