Chapter 1254 Not Quite There   

Author: Five Generals
Conan went limp on the floor.

He finally threw in the towel.

Not only did Conan lose any ounce of defiance in him, but he felt relieved to escape death.

He knew that Kaze could crush him easily.

Conan only survived today because he did not make things difficult for Darcy.

Getting on all fours, Conan crawled to kneel before Kaze.

He bobbed his head and said, “Thank you for not killing me, Kaze. I am your slave from here on out.”

He loved being a thug, but he was no fool.

Mathias was the successor of the Butterworth Queens. He would need the approval of the family’s core members to submit to Kaze.

The Queens would only do so if it benefited the family.

He wanted to get into Kaze’s good graces.

For once, Conan was not stubborn and apologized to Kaze.

Mathias was relieved.

“You?

“You’re not quite there.”

Kaze did not look at Conan and strode confidently ahead. Without looking back, he said, “Tell those people to let my wife go.”

“Of course.”

Mathias went st

    Greg was frustrated with himself because the oversight did Kaze a favor. Realization hit everybody. Lilian folded her arms and side-eyed Kaze before saying curtly, “You’re a loser, Kaze. You dug your own grave and dragged us into a mess.“You can’t just get in Mr. Mathias’ face.“Thank goodness Greg is well-connected. It took one call to the Red Foundation’s higher management to save your life and protect your wife.“You and your wife should be grateful to Greg.” Faye and the others tore Kaze a new one too. Saying nothing, Greg expected Kaze to show his appreciation. If it were not for him, nobody would have escaped Mathias’ clutches today. Kaze gave the group a strange look and said coldly, “Idiots. “Get lost!” Kaze cussed for once. The group tested his patience. He saved everybody there. Even though Lilian and the others wanted him dead, Kaze did not hold it against them. Instead, these idiots pushed their luck and demanded his gratitude. Lilian and the o

    “Kaze, you don’t even know what’s going on. You have the nerve to yell at me.“I run the Red Foundation. I have a hundred ways to ruin you and your wife.” Greg looked menacing, and his voice bore threat. He was not acting tough this time. Since Greg held the 300-million-dollar donation to Lilyrose Commerce Guild in his hand, he had Darcy eating out of his palm. However, Kaze was no doormat. “Here’s a piece of advice, Greg. You shouldn’t use donations for your personal agenda.“You can puff yourself up for our little fights. “But some lines crossed can be fatal,” Kaze said callously. His flat voice indicated no emotions. The crowd was taken aback. Was that a death threat? The people wondered if Kaze was serious. “Ha!” Greg grinned in disdain. “Is that a threat from you, moocher? “Did you hear that, Darcy? Your husband wants to finish me off. He’s so cocky. I must say he’s more arrogant than Conan. What should I do? I’m so scared.” Greg looked at Darcy, his

    The group made a fuss. Although they called themselves elites, there were tiers within the class. They would only check out the Koenigsegg One:1. Six of its kind worldwide, the Koenigsegg One:1 was not available to just anybody with money. Only the rich and powerful could acquire one. “Um…” Lilian was too uncertain to say anything. She knew Leigh had just purchased one from a VIP. However, the car was parked there and unregistered. She could not be sure that the car belonged to Leigh. What if one of the Queens owned the vehicle? Lilian would be upsetting someone else if she gave up any name. “Not even you know, Lilian?” The group was disappointed. They would earn bragging rights if they knew who the owner was. In fact, they could also say that their friend had just gotten a Koenigsegg One:1. “Who cares? We are not at the VIP’s level anyway.” Greg thought the car looked familiar. He looked away and fished out the car key before turning to Darcy with a smile.

    Greg and the others were upset by Kaze’s claim, but they had no comeback. The Koenigsegg headlights blinded them. It was pointless to fight against absolute power. “Come on, honey.” Darcy brought the car closer to Kaze. Kaze turned around and got into the car. Soon, the Koenigsegg left a trail of dust behind it. “Oh, my god! The car belongs to Darcy. Who the hell is she?” “Funny enough we have been showing off and mocking them. Now that I think about it, I feel so foolish and silly.” It took a while before Greg’s group could think straight again. Dwelling in regret, they beat themselves up. They were totally humiliated today. Greg grimaced, his eyes reflecting malice. He wanted revenge. Reservations were holding him back, though. Since Darcy owned a Koenigsegg One:1, he did not want to get on her bad side. What if he hit a brick wall like with Conan? Lilian glared at the person talking. “Funny, my ass. It’s obvious Kaze stole the Koenigsegg. Why are you

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 1259 Trust Crisis   

    An influencer donated one billion dollars. That was way more than the megarich corporations. It was totally unheard of. The news rocked the online community. Many Internet users, who loved drama, examined the list to check how much the rich and famous donated since they always advocated helping charities. Then came the problem. Lilyrose Commerce Guild was nowhere to be found on the list. Not a single local business had donated. The public was not having it. “Donations are coming from all over the country in the wake of a disaster, but none of the local businesses donated. Is there no decent soul in Lilyrose?” “No way. Lil Dee signed onto Lilyrose’s Lee Investment. He’s not from that city, and yet he donated one billion dollars. I guess none of the locals think it’s worth giving money to their community.” “Aren’t there major corporations there? Sky Ocean Corporation and Shangrila Group were established there. They got Professor Whiteman as a spokesperson and poured a

    “That’s right. She was only running a small business a month ago, and now she’s the chairwoman of both Quartet Group and Sky Ocean Corporation. That’s a lot of wealth in a short amount of time, don’t you think?” “I read online that her husband is the biggest mob boss in the city. Mr. Vikram, Mr. Logman, Mr. Joestar, is that why you’re afraid of him?” “Maybe the Vikrams, Logmans, and Joestars are in on it with Darcy. I bet they are aiming to be the next top three families. Even the former top three families weren’t as bad as you people.” “A-Are you trying to rebel?” Bernard and his friends shook with rage. They rushed to put out the fire, but they got burnt instead. In fact, the fallen top three families were deemed better than them. “Lilyrose Commerce Guild is for everybody. You don’t decide everything for us. What do you mean by rebelling?” “That’s right. We demand an answer.” Strength in numbers, the members gathered around Darcy demanding that she did right by the

    “Hold up!” Greg cut Darcy off from speaking. “Why are you making such a big deal out of things, Ms. Quint? “I’ll tell you what. I’ll talk to the staff member about the tiny mistake.“This is to show that I’m taking the matter seriously,” Greg said with a chuckle, his tone unhurried. Enraged, Darcy blurted, “Are you still asleep, Mr. Nanas? The online community is attacking Lilyrose Commerce Guild over this. “Over a hundred of our members’ businesses are currently facing boycotts, and distributors are returning their stock.“If we don’t address the issue promptly, things will only get worse. The trade industry in Lilyrose will falter. “Businesses will close down, people will lose jobs, they won’t be able to afford their mortgages, and we can see an increase in social unrest. “Are you going to be responsible for the chain reaction?” The members clenched their fists in rage. Darcy was not practicing scaremongering. The incident could very well happen. The consequenc

    Kaze spoke callously. Greg had pissed him off for the last time. “Haha. Are you talking to me, Kaze? “It has only been a night. Did you forget that your wife pleaded for your release when I tried to straighten you out?“Fine. Come and find me. “I read online that you’re the biggest mob boss in Lilyrose. Come here, and I’ll validate that you’re no more than a criminal to the public. “I’ll make sure you and your wife will never live in this town again.” Greg hung up. He did not take Kaze seriously. The Red Foundation dominated the narrative in public opinion. They ran the show. The disconnected tone ensued. Kaze put down the phone emotionlessly. The sparkle in Darcy’s eyes dimmed. Greg was hell-bent on destroying them. “Tsk, tsk. Lilyrose Commerce Guild has lost its reputation, but you still find time to get together.” A group swaggered into the place. The three individuals acted haughty. The leader, a bespectacled woman, was proud. Disregarding the bu

    “Give me an answer. Are you taking the job? If you are, you should sort out your affairs. Don’t bring your personal feelings to work.” Snow was not the type to go easy on fragile women. If Leah did not have what it took, she could be forced to leave the company. Nevertheless, Katie had left a lot of assets to Leah. Even without work, Leah could very well survive. The girl would have trouble keeping the wealth, seeing that she was without power or connections. If Leah had a job, she would have the resources to hold onto her assets. Leah had seen the best and worst of mankind. She was once the center of attention, and now, everybody avoided her. It dawned on Leah that it was over for Katie. If Leah could not even keep a job, she would lose everything. “I didn’t know things would happen.” Leah never thought that Katie was capable of stabbing Kaze and her in the back. The thought of betrayal put Leah in distress. Kaze was a great guy who helped Leah a lot. Feeling ete

    Leah got dressed and was ready to leave, but she did not know who to turn to. She thought about going to her wealthy friends to see if they could uncover anything through their connections. However, Leah could not get a hold of them. It dawned on Leah that loyalty would fade when power was gone. Even though Katie was just missing, intel spread around Butterworth very quickly. These people must have found out and have chosen to stay away. Leah had always been treated like royalty. Nobody had ever avoided her like the plague. Nevertheless, she had not been in touch with these friends since her injury. Now, in her attempt to contact them, she could not reach them. “Why is this happening? My good friends have gone MIA, and I’m getting silence from those who have been trying to connect.” Sitting on the couch, Leah looked out the window in despair. She tried to seek help with her mother’s search, but her efforts were futile. She could do nothing for her mother. All al

    “I have to work hard starting today. But before that, I have to get some sleep.” Snow remembered that Kaze punished her to get some sleep. He said her face looked tired and pale, signs of how hard she had been working. It felt great being cared for. It was because of his kindness, Snow fell for Kaze uncontrollably. Yet she understood not all things were meant to be. After she returned home, she went to sleep immediately without talking to anyone. She only woke up in the afternoon after a comfortable and easy sleep. Next, she would have to work on many things, first being taking over Northborn Group. Katie’s disappearance had the company shaken, but it gave many others a chance. They tried to calm their subordinates down and contact the higher-ups for more information, hoping that they could replace Katie as the new CEO. Little did they know, their preparations would eventually fall short. Snow and her secretary arrived at Northborn Group in the afternoon, and her a

    “Worried about the mercenaries? I’ve taken all of them out and anyone with a sane mind would know by now not to come after me. Why would they make the same mistake again?” Kaze killed all the mercenaries. There was no one else the mastermind could send after him anymore. Even if there were, they would have to reconsider it after what had happened. Taking out the mercenaries in silence was a strong showcase of his strength. Once the mastermind found out, he or she would definitely stay away. Besides, Kaze had decided to continue his journey to Westeros without telling anyone. He could board a random flight to his destination, and no one would ever know. “Take me to the airport,” Kaze said to the driver. He and Snow were in the rear seat. “When you go back to Butterworth, don’t rush things. Now that Katie has made a mistake and is forced to step down, you can take over Northborn Group,” Kaze said. “Speaking of Katie, after I locked her up, her daughter, Leah, came to me

    Miguel stated his strength so that Kaze and Snow would look at him differently. “That doesn’t mean we have to choose you.” Snow saw nothing stellar in him. Snow’s harsh words surprised Miguel and left him deeply displeased. Yet when he looked at Kaze, he dared not say a word. “I can work hard. Even if I am not qualified now, I can work toward that goal.” “Of course, you are not qualified now. You need to improve yourself to meet the basic requirements. Then we’ll talk about you joining us.” Snow just wanted to get this matter over and done with, so she handed Miguel her name card. “When you think you are qualified, you can give me a call.” Since she would eventually take over the largest force in Butterworth, she needed to build a team of her own—one she could truly trust. Miguel might just be an ordinary man who looked fierce but he was courageous and had the potential to be better. “Can I follow him instead?” Miguel took the name card and learned Snow’s name. He

    “You did well,” Kaze praised Miguel. It was not easy for someone to fire a gun and take a life, even when he had basic training. Though without the proper technique and training, the shot was nothing stellar. “Really?” Miguel was thrilled by the praise. He might be tall and fit and have arms full of tattoos, but he had never gotten into a fight before. He was happy that someone he admired praised him. It made his day even more than escaping alive. Kaze wanted to continue but the cars had arrived. He walked forward and revealed himself in front of the headlights. The hostages were scared. They stepped back, some of them entered the hangar once more and tried to shut the door. Miguel stood in their way and stopped them from closing it up. “What are you doing? Kaze is still here and help has arrived. Stop hiding,” he said. He detested their selfish behavior. Kaze saved them but they did not even thank him. They even continued to suspect Kaze’s identity. Their be

    “How dare those men hijack the plane and take Kaze. They must be punished…” Despite her grumbles, Snow grew anxious. “Given Mr. Lee’s capabilities, he won’t be hurt.” The agents around her tried to comfort her. They believed she was being too nervous. “I know, but we as subordinates have failed him by allowing this to happen. We have to do our best to make up for the mistake, and not rely on Mr. Lee to get out because he can.” Snow drowned in self-blame and regretted not being able to help. It was her negligence that allowed the hijacking to happen. “But there’s nothing you can do now. It’s late. Even the hijackers need to rest. They won’t do anything yet.” “It’s because the hijackers need to rest that we have to hurry and beat them to it. That’s the only way to solve this matter!” “But we’ve searched high and low and didn’t find anything. No one knows where they have gone. Even if they transported the passengers via buses, we didn’t see any tracks.” The agents discu

    Kaze breathed a sigh of relief. He quickly went over to Miguel and pressed his hands with the gun down so that it would not misfire. “Good job.” “Thanks.” Miguel curled his lips into a nervous smile. He frequently trained in the gym and mixed martial arts but had never encountered any real-life incident before, thus being inexperienced. Fortunately, his mentality was stronger than the others and allowed him to act accordingly. “I’ll be taking the gun. This is self-defense, you won’t be charged and you won’t need to take responsibility,” Kaze said. Miguel’s pale face looked relieved. “What should we do now? Are there more of them?” Miguel dared not let go of the gun, worried there might be more enemies. “I’ve counted the numbers and this guy here should be the last one.” He then took the gun from Miguel’s hands. “Really? Gosh! That was crazy! I was so terrified!” Miguel finally loosened up and let his instinct take over. His heart was pounding so fast that it

    Manson came over and saw the mercenaries lying in their own puddle of blood. The gore shocked him and made him sick. He tried his best to hold back the urge to throw up as it would attract attention. “Don’t look if you can’t take it! Don’t make things worse!” “Yeah! Professor! Grow a pair of balls!” “I have never seen dead bodies like this before!” he explained with a flush of embarrassment on his face. “Can we go out now and run away?” The hostages were eager to leave as things had settled down outside. They thought the danger was over. A dead mercenary was inside the container with them and they were still horrified. Once the others found out about this, the hostages would be shot to death. “If you want to die, be my guest. The moment you step out, you’ll be shot!” Callahan said as he looked at the others scornfully. One of the hostages had already put his hand on the handle of the door and was ready to dash out, but he quickly pulled his hand back after listening
