The Return of the God of War [The Protector] Chapter 922

Chapter 922 Nobody Bullies My Mother Emma continued, “It’s not just Margo City. For almost thirty years, I was only allowed to move within this block. They warned me that if I ever stepped out of the boundary, I’d receive a serious beating.” Levi widened his eyes so much that they could almost drop out. “What? You were only allowed to move within this block for almost thirty years?” What’s worse than being imprisoned in a city for almost thirty years is being confined to a single block. Those ruthless scumbags! “Yes. The Garrisons had ordered the people in Margo City to imprison me here. To make it foolproof, they deliberately narrowed the range down to just this block.” Emma sighed. When Levi heard her words, rage pulsed through his veins, and a murderous intent flashed across his eyes. “Emma, have you been a sanitation worker all these years?” The thought of it broke Zoey’s heart. “Yes. They control everything that I do, including my job. I was only allowed to be a sanitation worker because they’d wanted me to struggle,” replied Emma with a nod, who then smiled at the tearful Zoey. “I was fine, though. On top of my salary, scavenging around was enough to help me get by.” Even so, everybody else could see how things really were, for it was impossible to forget seeing what Emma was willing to do for fifty. “But your health…” Zoey choked before she could finish. “It’s nothing. As long as I continue to take my medications, I’ll be fine. The pain does get a little worse during cloudy and rainy days, though,” explained Emma casually. Still, her sickness made her look at least twenty years older than she was. Momentarily, Emma suddenly remembered something. “You guys had better leave now. You shouldn’t stay here for too long.” “Why?” asked Levi and Zoey in confusion. “They’re always watching me. For almost thirty years, nobody was allowed to enter this courtyard or even talk to me. That was why I didn’t have to lock the door. Nobody would dare to come by. If they find you here, you’ll all be in danger. There might even be a serious beating.” In a panic, Emma tried to hurry the three out, but Levi would not budge. “It’s okay, Mom. Nobody will lay a finger on you while I’m around.” Levi sneered. “Nobody bullies my mother!” “We’re no match for these people, so please just go! They’ll see you!” begged Emma anxiously.
