Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2077 Respect No One
Albert’s amazing achievements on the foreign battlefield made him a decorated soldier, which also promoted him to chief commander of the South River Strategic Department at just over 30 years old. With the Hidens behind his back, his future was considered limitless. In time he would be a prominent figure, if not the leader, of the Harrowdale Hidens. Albert’s promotion was unstoppable. Even if he was forced to step down from the position now, it would only delay his career for one to three years. However, be it one year or three years, time mattered the most in a soldier’s career, especially for someone in his position. One step slower would hold him back forever. Whenever he reached a turning point, his ascension or promotion might be curbed because of the delay in his career. Therefore, for the sake of Albert’s future, Kaze called Autumn. After the call got through, Kaze said, “Someone is still trying to bring up Magnus’ death and led an investigation to the South Rive

Autumn did not delve into the topic. She said, “Invincible Lee, to be honest, all of this started because of the Hidens’ extensive reach. “Back when Albert became the chief commander, it was a move they made to target the West State’s political scene. That woman in the Hiden family has always been ambitious and wanted to inject their influence into the West State. “No one likes a stranger sleeping on their couch. The folks in the West State won’t just sit back and watch the Hidens creep into their turf.” “You are saying it’s the Westeros Fowlers?” Kaze asked with furrowed brows. The Westeros Fowlers were a powerful family whose influence blanketed the whole state. Autumn’s silence practically verified Kaze’s speculation. Kaze shook his head. The relationship between big families was as complicated as always. A while ago, the Hidens tried to arrange for Miru to marry Jerome from the Fowlers. It really seemed like the two families finally got to a mutual understanding and

Kaze said, “It seems like the almighty Viper Queen isn’t as cold as they claim, you even know that I sent Miru to Riverbank. “Are you trying to use me to clean up the Fowlers’ spies in the Viper’s Den this time?” A while back, Jerome was able to get the Viper’s Den agents to give Kaze a hard time. It was proof that the Fowlers had infiltrated the West State Viper’s Den thoroughly, like sand in creeks. Kaze knew what Autumn had in her mind. Autumn did not mind her intention being revealed. She said indifferently, “That depends on how you want to look at things. You ruined the marriage arrangement between the Fowlers and the Hidens, you really think you can walk away from Jerome Fowler?” “Then you are saying this is a mutual working relationship? Hehe…” Kaze chuckled and then hung up the phone. He had to admit that Autumn was insightful in this matter. He did ruin the marriage arrangement between Miru and Jerome, so whether the Fowlers cared about the marriage or not, f
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2080 Look Down
Kaze went up to the young man and asked, “Rex? I’m Kaze, Mr. Yemen’s student…” Rex pulled his attention back from a girl and had a good look at Kaze. When he saw the casual clothes and the sack of luggage, looking like a country man’s first visit to the big city, disdain and contempt immediately appeared on his face. “Where have you been? You kept me waiting, you know that? Is this your first time on the train?” Rex was Ryna’s nephew. A few years ago, when Lock’s business started to profit, they needed a driver, so Rex filled the spot. After driving Lock around for a few years, Rex got the opportunity to meet some wealthy people, so he too, assumed the identity of one. He completely forgot that he was once from the countryside. Even after he moved to the city, he still had the same personality. He looked down on people who dressed poorly. Early in the morning, he received a call from Lock and asked him to pick up someone from the train station. If Lock had high regard

The Mercedes drove off the train station but Kaze did not ask Rex where they were going. He was not afraid that Rex would play tricks on him. People like Rex looked down on those beneath them but feared anyone with greater power. All Kaze needed to do was intimidate him with force and he would stay put. After the kick and slap, Rex already knew that he should not mess with Kaze, or else he would be getting a lesson that he would not forget for the rest of his life. The Mercedes continued to drive across the main avenue of Riverbank. Skyscrapers flew by outside the window. Even though the city was incomparable to Westeros, the capital of the West State, it was still the main financial hub. Its influence reached every corner of the West State, plus a couple of other states as well. It was the heart of the entire state. Someone used to say that Westeros represented the past glory of the West State and Riverbank represented the bright future. Whoever took control of Riv
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2082 Bourbon's Treat
Kaze knew Magnus alone had 30% shares in Golden Scale Corporation. The other three branch leaders of the West State Viper’s Den, such as Jacob, Malova’s husband, who died in Kaze’s hands, had 10%. In addition, as the branch chief of the South River Branch, Newell also received 20% of the company shares due to its special position in the West State. The remaining percentages of the shares were public assets owned by the Viper’s Den. With the Viper’s Den’s authority and resources, the profits from businesses were mostly shared among prominent figures, which explained why people wanted to join the organization. Now that Magnus, Newell, and his son, Brad, had died in Kaze’s hands, the assets and shares of the company that they had left became a prize for the others to compete. To seize the shares, the entire West State Viper’s Den was in chaos, and the organization had devolved into a dog-eat-dog situation. The competition even involved the outside world, which caused a mess
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2083 Ryna
“This way, Sir.” The waiter led Kaze to Lock’s reserved VIP room. To keep the confidentiality of the guests, all guests who dined in Bourbon were hosted in independent VIP rooms. “Huh? That young man…” The manager of the branch saw Kaze’s figure and furrowed his brows curiously. A moment of hesitation later, he dialed a number on his phone. “Hello, Mr. Queen, I’m Roger, the manager of Bourbon Riverbank Branch. I remember you once told us that if we see Mr. Kaze Lee, we should serve him with our best. I think I just spotted him in my branch…” …Knock, knock. With the sack of medicine in his hand, Kaze followed the waiter to the VIP room and waited for the waiter to knock on the door. “I think Wesley and Cyan are here! Do you know that Wesley’s uncle, Jude, is the vice branch chief of Viper’s Den South River Branch? He’s also likely to become the new branch chief! “Wesley is trying to date Cyan and I like the young man a lot.” Through the door, Kaze heard the voice o

Ryna’s eyes had a brazen contempt and it could not escape Kaze’s eyes. He said, “Mr. Yemen asked your driver to bring me here. He said I can join you guys for a meal before going back to your place.” “What is Lock thinking, asking you to come here? Doesn’t he know this is an important occasion?” Ryna grumbled out of frustration. She then dragged Kaze away to a secluded corner and whispered, “Kaze, this meeting is important to our family. The guests are all wealthy and powerful, you shouldn’t be here.” At the same time, she opened her purse and took some cash out, probably around 2,000 dollars. She shoved the money into Kaze’s hands and said, “Take these and go find something to fill your stomach. If you don’t know the way, I’ll ask Rex to drive you around. You can meet up with Lock at home later.” She obviously took Kaze as a freeloader. Kaze frowned and gave the money back. “Thank you, Mrs. Yemen. I am not here to beg.” “Look at you, what are you talking about?” Ryna

“Kaze can pull the punches for sure. I mean, he has the Butterworth branch chief’s trust for a reason. “There has to be something for him to win the branch chief’s approval.” Edmund doubted there was depth to Kaze. After all, Edmund decided whether to take on a person based on their abilities. It made no sense to pay attention to losers, as he would hold them in contempt. Edmund had been impressed with Herman, who excelled in strategies and management. That was why Edmund bumped Herman up and made sure he stayed on top. “Got it.” Herman nodded and had one foot out the door. “Don’t be in a hurry to leave. There’s one more thing.” Edmund pointed at the table. Herman approached and stood on bent knees. Pleased with Herman’s submission, Edmund passed him a wine glass. Herman took the drink humbly before looking carefully at Edmund, awaiting his orders. “The wine was just airlifted from abroad. I can vouch for the taste. If you’re looking to sip on the finest, yo
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3769 Keep Tabs
Time went by, and a towering man in a suit showed up outside the door. Picking up on the noise inside the room, he knocked on the door. It was hard to tell whether the person inside could hear the knocking, so the man waited outside. The door was opened, and a woman, her face flawless with makeup, popped her head out and saw him. She cocked her head back at Edmund. “You have a guest, Mr. Witterson.” “Let him in,” Edmund instructed. He then leaned in to take the drink from the girl next to him with his mouth. The other girls cheered him on. The group was lost in their fun. The man, who entered the room, stood by the sofa respectfully. He kept his head down, his gaze staying low at the bottles of alcohol spread across the table. It was a bit of a wait before the man approached at Edmund’s order. “Tell me about Dwight.”While listening to the girls’ singing, Edmund turned to Herman. Herman rushed over as soon as Edmund called. He won a lot of money at poker toda
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3768 No Problem
In this particular circumstance, Morris had to play it safe so that things would not get out of hand. The last thing he wanted was to be dragged into the mess. At least, he finally saw the Wittersons’ true colors. Morris’ friendly advice was met with disrespect and insult. However, the Wittersons were a force of nature, and Morris was not about to take them head-on. Despite his frustration, Morris had to walk away. Well, Edmund would soon face his downfall at the height of his power, and Morris would be there to enjoy the ride. Still, it did not sit well with Morris to have a young fella walk all over him. It had crossed his mind to keep the Wittersons in check, but there was only so much he could do. Morris had to be the one to back away as the Wittersons grew haughty. Morris believed there was more to Kaze’s visit to Westeros. Nothing major happened in Westeros recently. At least, there was nothing worth the other branch’s attention. However, a representative of the

Morris suggested entertaining Kaze well. Things would not be good for the branch if Kaze got dirt on them. That was where Edmund disagreed with Morris. His idea was to send someone to sound Kaze out. Edmund was smug because Morris’ decision was wrong. “You shouldn’t do that. Kaze is here on behalf of the Butterworth branch. You don’t want tension between both branches.” Morris looked at things from a wider perspective. Edmund believed Kaze was just a doormat of little importance. “You just overthink things, and it’s not good for your age. You’re getting senile.” Edmund did not take Morris’ advice seriously. He believed he was right. “You’re not getting it. Kaze is from Butterworth. Even if he doesn’t hold a high position there, we were in the wrong. We did not keep our tracks clean either. “Now that he’s back, I’m worried that he’ll cause us harm.” Morris was only giving a heads-up because the whole branch was at stake. Edmund was young. Due to his lack of judgmen

“We should be generous to our guest from Butterworth. You can arrange as you see fit. Please don’t house him in a messy home. Hire cleaners to tidy up the place. “You can report back to me if you need more money, but it’s not a reason for you to misuse the funds.” Herman wanted to hang up. The money was now in Dwight’s bank account, so he was washing his hands off the matter. The plan was to keep Kaze happy. He was just an insignificant member of the Butterworth branch anyway. The whole thing would blow over soon enough, so long as Kaze kept to himself without taking things too far. Herman would figure out a way to get him out quickly anyway. Maybe Herman and his friends did not have to do anything to get rid of Kaze. “Got it. I’ll be a good host, Herman. I won’t let you down. I’ll keep you in the loop.” Dwight was over the moon to get the notification about the money transfer. “Just play by ear and arrange what you see best.” Herman hung up and continued playing pok
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3765 Good Hospitality
“It’s becoming a hassle now. Are you going to inform the Viper’s Den about the change of accommodation?” After much hesitation, Kaze nodded to take up the offer. Dwight was thrilled. It only hit Dwight that he had to communicate with the Viper’s Den. Kaze was booked for a hotel stay, and Dwight’s job was to take him to the destination. Yet now, Dwight took him to his home. “I’ll tell my superior and see what he has to say.” Dwight was not sure whether the change was appropriate. Nevertheless, he did not want to pass up on a great opportunity. He simply grabbed the bull by the horn. If Kaze stayed at his place, the Viper’s Den members had to respect Kaze’s request even if they had a problem with it. “But when they ask, you can say that you’re getting along well with me. Living together just makes work more convenient.” Feeling unsettled, Dwight tried to get their stories straight with Kaze. Hopefully, the Viper’s Den would not come after them. “Aren’t we friends? I k

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,

“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
