Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1756 What the Governor Thinks
Thud!Phil slumped to the ground, looking at Lucas in devastation.Then, he desperately turned his pleading eyes to Trent and shouted, “Mr. Fuller, say something! If I remember correctly, Mr. Cooper used to work under you, right?”Trent felt embarrassed at the words.He served as the mayor of Lilyrose for twenty years and worked with countless colleagues.Lucas had indeed worked in Lilyrose under him before, but he had since been promoted to the provincial level.“Lucas, why didn’t you catch up with me and have some tea if you were in Lilyrose?”Trent cleared his throat and tried to make small talk.The Mountain Dew project started while he was still in office, but it was later abandoned.There were undoubtedly some shady dealings involved, and his good personal relationship with Phil was also established during that time.Therefore, he had to stand up for Phil.Otherwise, if some old issues were dug up, even he might get implicated.Lucas said respectfully, “I’ve been busy
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1757 Fall from Grace
“Lucas, since this kid is asking for it, make the call!”Trent waved his hand, full of confidence.Lucas glanced at Kaze and took out his phone in exasperation to call Loid’s office.“I have something to report to the governor.”Soon, Loid’s secretary transferred the call to Loid.“Mr. Farland, the former mayor of Lilyrose, Trent Fuller, is officially making a complaint against the mayor, Mr. Lee, requesting an investigation from the Supervisory Bureau. Furthermore, Mr. Lee has also agreed and wants to hear what you think.”Mr. Lee?What the hell?The new mayor’s last name was Lee?Trent and Phil were both bewildered by Lucas’ words and did not react immediately.“Master Fuller, the governor wants to talk to you.”Lucas passed the phone to Trent.As soon as Trent brought the phone to his ear, he heard Loid’s cold and stern voice. “Trent Fuller, you’re still causing trouble even after retirement, constantly disturbing the operations of Lilyrose’s city council. Did you think
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1758 An Even More Impressive Identity
“Old man, you’re really funny. When did I deceive you?”Kaze looked at Trent throwing a tantrum and mocked. “When you put on airs and told me to visit you at your home, I went personally, didn’t I? However, you didn’t believe me and drove me away.”At those words, Trent felt his strength drain away and lay there motionlessly.He regretted it.If he had known that Kaze was the mayor, he would not have gone out of his way to offend Kaze from the start.However, even if he knew, would Trent not have clashed with Kaze?That was a hard question to answer.Old habits die hard.The reason why Trent ended up in this situation had nothing to do with Kaze being the mayor. It was because of his arrogant nature.Everyone else looked at Trent’s miserable state and sighed in their hearts.Demanding Kaze to visit and then driving him away when he arrived...Just that action itself would have brought him bad luck.At that moment, a team of investigators from the Supervisory Bureau entered.
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1759 Identity Revealed
“Okay.”Darcy let Kaze hold her hand, following him out of the banquet hall in a daze.Looking at their backs, various sighs filled the hall.Regret.They all looked down on Kaze and mocked him to curry favor with Andrew.Now, they realized that the real big shot was the man that they had disdained.However, it was too late for regrets.No matter how much they tried to apologize or fawn over him, Kaze had no intention of paying them any mind.He left all the business cards he received on the table, not taking back a single one.Kaze naturally would not hold grudges against these people, but he would not show them kindness either....At Horizon Mirror Mansion, the family sat on the couch in silence.The atmosphere was heavy and oppressive.Agnes’ hands trembled slightly.Kaze felt uneasy at being stared at and said helplessly, “Honey, if you have any questions, just ask.”“When did you become the mayor? What’s going on?”Darcy took a deep breath and stared at Kaze inten
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1760 Planning to Step Down
Considering Master Quint’s character, it was clear why he was bringing the Quint family over.Kaze’s identity as the mayor was exposed.A young mayor like him was not unheard of in Arcadia, but it was certainly rare.He would surely have a bright future and endless opportunities in politics.Kaze was known to the outside world as the Quint family’s son-in-law.His name was tied closely to the Quints.In the past, Master Quint was worried that Kaze might cause trouble and drag the Quints into disaster.Now, those worries were gone.The Quints had a rising star now!Thus, Horizon Mirror Mansion was very lively that night.The Quints flattered Kaze relentlessly, and Master Quint was also grinning from ear to ear.Kaze was speechless at their behavior.Seeing that they were refusing to leave and kept trying to suck up to him, he finally could not hold back anymore.He suddenly said to Darcy, “Honey, I need to tell you something. I’m planning to step down as mayor.”“Huh?”Be
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1761 I’ll Avenge Gareth
“That’s right.”Cosmo nodded with a pale face. “Andrew is useless, and so is Harrison. Why were they so frightened by a mere mayor? Not only did they fail to complete the task, but they even exposed Kaze’s identity as well. Useless!”He had been expecting good news from Andrew. As long as Darcy handed over the shares, Samson would enter Sky Ocean Corporation’s board of directors under the name of Lee Investment Firm.Unexpectedly, he got this news instead.Just then, Samson’s phone rang.He listened to a few words, hung up, and looked at Cosmo with a frown, deep in thought.“What is it? Who called you?”Cosmo asked casually.Samson said in a low voice, “It was your dad. He said to stop Kaze from controlling the Lilyrose New City project. Otherwise, if he forms alliances with major forces, it’ll be a disaster for the Lee family! In other words, Kaze must die, but without involving the Lees...”“My dad? Why didn’t he just call me?”Cosmo was stunned. Then, he thought of somethi
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1762 If He Knows His Place
Soon, all the members of the Hornberg family were taken away.The Hornberg family assets were now converted into funds for Gunther’s revenge.Gunther did not care about their survival.Poor Gareth. He was a Grandmaster, yet he was bullied even after his death.Furthermore, it was by his senior who claimed to want to avenge him.Gunther’s student, Sonny, waved his hand, and Ethan’s corpse was taken away.At that moment, Niko entered the room, glanced at Ethan’s corpse, and walked up to Gunther expressionlessly.“Uncle Gunther, there’s news from Lilyrose regarding Kaze’s identity! His backer is the former mayor of Lilyrose, Johnson Brooks. Johnson is highly regarded by Loid Farland, the governor, and is about to be promoted, so he had Kaze act as the acting mayor.“Now, with the development of the Lilyrose New City, many forces in Arcadia want a share of the project. Kaze is using his position to curry favor with these forces.“All signs indicate that the reason for Kaze’s previ
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1763 The Top Legatus
The Three Great Legati with Gunther were the ace soldiers of Zion Mercenaries.They each had their own background.Niko did not know the background of the top Legatus, Mosiah, but he was familiar with the other two.The second Legatus, Antovan, was a martial arts genius proficient in jiu-jitsu, kickboxing, and karate. His unarmed combat skills were unmatched in Zion Mercenaries.Antovan’s nickname in Zion Mercenaries was White Python.It was well known that prey entangled by a python would be strangled to death.Antovan was just as terrifying. Once he got close, his opponent was as good as dead!The third Legatus, Gustav, was nicknamed Kodiak in the Zion Mercenaries.He came from Eastern Gyro and was naturally strong.

Not only did Niko have no unde

Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3764 Dwight’s Home
Dwight gave some suggestions. “But I’m worried about being a nuisance to your family.” Kaze remained hesitant, torn between decisions. “No, you won’t. I usually live alone. They stay somewhere else. They barely visit. I’ll just let them know not to visit for now,” Dwight replied. Dwight figured out what was in it for him. He could not let Kaze leave. “I don’t want to put your family in an awkward position.”Kaze was still considering the matter. “Relax. They don’t live with me anyway. The room I have for you is tidy. No one has stayed there before.“I’ll hire some help to freshen up the place. I can guarantee you an experience no less than at the hotel.” Dwight spoke with great confidence. “We should finish our food and doggie-bag the rest. I’ll take you to my place.” Dwight was ready to get things going. Kaze took the offer and nodded. “I’ll be in your care then.” Kaze was glad that his plan went through. Dwight had no idea that he got played. Nevertheless,
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3763 Accommodation
“I’m new to the place, so I don’t know much. Can you show me around when you’re available?” “No problem, but I usually have some stuff to take care of. I can’t be there 24/7. “Why don’t you propose to the branch that you want me to be your guide and attendant?” Dwight suggested. There was no telling whether Kaze would accept his proposal, but it was an opportunity to prove himself. He was never involved in the core operation. Often enough, he was the branch members’ punching bag. Though Dwight was aware that he was not good enough for the big stuff, he still wanted to succeed. Kaze was the trusted aide of the Butterworth Branch chief. He was in Westeros for a reason. By joining Kaze, Dwight would come across the major players. Kaze saw through Dwight’s plans. “Sure. I’ll do that.” Kaze did not mind the request. “Great. I’ll let them know on your behalf. I’ll be responsible for your needs while in the city.” Dwight was overjoyed at the opportunity. “So you live
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3762 My Treat
“You must be rich. I often see rich people picking tabs for everybody. Talk about extravagance.” The tension in the air was lifted when Kaze offered to pay for everything. “I’m not. Consider it an apology,” Kaze explained, not wanting to cause unnecessary misunderstandings. He did not see the point of continuing the conversation. Dwight’s angry screams came from outside. “What the hell is this? I only ordered a bunch of stuff. Why am I being charged an exorbitant amount?“What do you mean my friend is paying for everybody? That’s throwing money away,” Dwight said while storming his way over. “I know you have money, but you shouldn’t do this, Mr. Lee.” Dwight did not approve of this type of generosity. “You rubbed them the wrong way. It was only right to apologize. Besides, it’s not a lot of money.” Kaze looked at the bill and handed a bank card to Dwight. “It’s my treat.” The consumption was barely a dent in Kaze’s savings. The meal did not cost more than his us

Kaze observed as the jeep took off further off course, past the towering buildings to a run-down neighborhood. “This is where I usually reside. My home is not too far away, but I think you might have trouble adapting to this place.” Dwight did not forget to book Kaze a hotel. Kaze could not possibly stay with him. The hotel was around the area anyway. “Didn’t you say that you haven’t tried the local cuisine? I’ll take you out for a bite. “The barbecue ribs here are to die for. We’ve got the dry-rubbed and saucy kind.” Dwight parked the car and hopped out right away. Opposite the parking lot was not the cleanest food joint. Looking in from the outside, Kaze realized that the place was packed. Kaze understood that the restaurant must be known for some kind of dish. The customers were from all walks of life, so the food must be great. “There’s not much to see here, but the food is tasty. If you don’t mind, we can order something inside.” Kaze was not particularly con
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3760 Clueless
Dwight was surprised and curious as to who Kaze really was. From what he gathered, Kaze was a confidante of the Butterworth Branch chief. The purpose of Kaze’s visit was to learn and share. Dwight worked on the fringes, so his access to information was limited. Nevertheless, he got the feeling that Kaze was just an ordinary guy just like him. The only difference was that Kaze was lucky to rub shoulders with important people. Dwight did not get chances like that. “Who are the most influential people in the Viper’s Den Westeros Branch?” Kaze asked in the car. Dwight was taken aback by the question. Still, he had an answer to that. “So you don’t know much about the situation?” Dwight suddenly felt important. “Well, I’m new to the city. I will be running into them soon, so I need to make sure I get my facts right,” Kaze said humbly. This was Dwight’s shot, and he needed to present his best. “Relax, Kaze. I’ll tell you everything I know.” Dwight would reveal some info
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3759 Yours
Kaze glanced at the flowers. There was a card for well-wishes too.Curious, Kaze reached out to read the card. It was written, “To my eternal lover and sweetheart.” Dwight grabbed Kaze’s bag. Since the sign in his hand was getting in the way, Dwight tossed the placard in the trash can. As Dwight turned his head back, he saw Kaze reading the card that came with the flowers. He tried to stop Kaze, but it was too late. Dwight had not attended to a guest of high importance before. The task was assigned to him at the last minute. In the past, Dwight was usually on the sidelines, never getting close to major matters. He would always get the small, insignificant jobs. Dwight often bought drinks for his superiors to build connections. However, he had always been kept out of the loop. Now that an opportunity had fallen onto his lap, Dwight was not about to let it slip. He wanted to show what he could do. When Dwight arrived at the airport for the pick-up, most people car
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3758 Hothead
The incident did not sit well with Kaze, so he left them out to dry. After much searching, Kaze came across a café. Kaze bought a cup of coffee. Cupping the drink between his hands, Kaze sipped slowly. Many passengers swarmed the arrival hall in the airport, dragging along their luggage or pulling out their phones to get a pick-up. They all had a destination, a place they had to be in a rush. Intrigued, Kaze followed the crowd out. Kaze turned on his phone, and a text message from his airport pick-up came in. He glanced at the message, curious about who the person was. Nevertheless, Kaze trusted that the Westeros Branch members would not set him up out in the open. At most, they would pull little stunts to mess with him. Kaze was not the type to sweat the small stuff. However, he would not tolerate any extreme behavior. He had been keeping a low profile back in Butterworth, keeping the limelight off him. The purpose was to handle Jet without unnecessary complicati

“Alright. I will work hard to be the manager of the Northborn Group. You need to show me the ropes and teach me about management.” Leah looked at Katie with a smile. She believed Katie had not lost her mind. Katie simply had her memory mixed up. “You need to keep your people in line and reward those who deserve it. It all boils down to profits. “You need to work toward managing your people and working with rivals. You’ve got to keep the balance, and nobody loses out. “You need to build your own system when it comes to working together. Don’t be led around by the nose.” Hearing that Leah would start work soon, Katie imparted her knowledge. “Don’t worry too much about things. Joey is nice. You can go to her for help,” Katie said earnestly. Katie seemed to be herself at the moment. Leah wondered if Katie faked her insanity to escape the punishment. “What have become of you? Did they do something to you? “Did you really betray Kaze?” Leah whispered while leaning close
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3756 Mental Disorder
Leah kept working on her knowledge until late into the night. Just as she was about to hit the sack, she got a message from Snow. Learning was a hard enough process. The text message came out of the blue. Leah did not expect Snow to contact her at night. The message was strange as well. Leah could not understand why Snow would give her the address of a nursing home. Leah was determined to turn things around. She strived to become stronger instead of being a burden. She was grateful for Kaze’s help. At least, she had a job now. However, her gratitude was not extended to Snow. She believed Snow had gone too far. Snow left her feeling powerless. Leah did not think much about the message. She assumed that the text was not meant for her. Since Leah did not respond to the text, Snow put the matter aside and went to bed. Leah called Snow the next day. “Why did you send me an address?” Leah went straight to the question. She had been equipping herself with knowledge before
