Everyone, including Gilfard, the eldest in the room, looked at Buffy coldly. Without getting any warm response, Buffy’s posture remained bowed on the spot. She currently had absolute power over Gwake Corporation with the shares she possessed. She was the chairwoman and the CEO. If her positions in the company were taken into consideration, the seniors of the house would have to show her respect. However, Buffy had already anticipated a challenging time at home, dealing with the senior members of the household. Since there was no response from her seniors, Buffy took a deep breath and then looked at her father. “Father…” Jude refused to speak. She continued, “Since everyone is here today, as you promised, you should give me a satisfying explanation. “How did my mother become comatose? What happened ten years ago? I hope you can tell me everything and provide me with convincing evidence.” Her frosty voice echoed across the hall. “Slam!” Suddenly, a middle-aged man
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2836 Casius Arrives
Following the voice, a dozen suited men appeared at the entrance and swarmed in. The entire living hall was surrounded instantly, blocking every possible exit from within. Buffy was shocked by the sudden intrusion. What shocked her even more was that everyone in the family, including her grandfather, looked calm, as if they had expected this. In the blink of an eye, the atmosphere in the living hall became tense and pressured. Anyone who tried to leave would have to pay a severe price. Buffy turned around immediately. As a matter of fact, the moment she heard the voice, she already knew who it was. Casius, in a black trench coat, swaggered into the living hall. He wore a warm smile, but his frosty eyes pierced Buffy’s heart with a gaze that sent chills down her spine. Casius was like a viper eyeing its prey, ready to strike any moment. Behind Casius were a man and a woman. Buffy recognized the man as Hank, Casius’ secret bodyguard. He was a servant of the Weathe
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2837 Forced to Marry
Casius looked frivolous, his tone sarcastic. However, the ferocity he exuded pressured even the seniors of the house, making them think twice before saying a word. The name of the Riverbank Seven worked like a charm against the ordinary citizens. “Mhmm. Not bad.” Gilfard scrutinized Casius from the main seat and nodded his head subtly. He approved Casius as his grandson-in-law. Casius possessed the power and the courage, and if Buffy could marry a man like him, it would bring decades of glory to the Gwake family. “Casius! Shut your damn mouth! What do you mean by ‘our big day’?” Buffy’s expression was frosty. “Don’t you call my mother your mother-in-law! My father too! They are not your in-laws! I am here because of my mother and I do not need you meddling around! It’s always been Kaze who’s truly helped me! “I don’t need you as a witness! Get out of our house right now!” Seeing Buffy berate Casius fiercely, the woman behind him turned frosty, ready to teach Buffy a l
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2838 The More He Wants It
“Yeah! I’d rather die than marry you!” Buffy’s resolute answer left Casius with no chance. “You think I’m lesser than the live-in husband?” “You are far lesser!” She was firm. “Fine.” Casius nodded. His eyes locked onto Buffy and said, “You’ve rejected me, but I realized, I liked you even more.” A manic blush appeared on his face as he grinned, “Buffy, do you know that I've never been denied anything I’ve wanted since I was young? “The more you reject me, the more I want you! And I will do whatever it takes! “But I am a man who knows my priorities. Since I came here for two things, let's handle the first.“We can talk about our wedding later. Let’s focus on your mother now, Buffy. “Am I right, my dear future father-in-law?” Casius looked at Jude. “A man who knows his priorities. This is how a mature man should behave.” Jude nodded in agreement as he stood. “Since my future son-in-law has spoken, then I will give Buffy a satisfying explanation about her mother

“Hmph! Cease your nonsense!” Gilfard said coldly, “Why would the Heartano family of Geranium show so much respect to a live-in husband? “I think you are teaming up with the outsider, putting up a show for us to see so that you can slowly and quietly transfer the company assets away, ultimately emptying us! “Let me make this straight! No matter what you do, you have to take the shares back and return them to your father! Before you do that, you will have no explanations about your mother! “If you disagree, then I will cease her medical fees and I can do it with one phone call! Then you will have nothing but a dead body!” His tone was fierce and his expression cold and ruthless. Buffy paled. She widened her eyes and screamed, “Grandfather, how could you!” “I am the master of this family before I am your grandfather! I am doing this on behalf of the family’s benefit, so why couldn’t I?!” he argued. He then got up on his feet with Jude’s help. He smiled at Casius and said

“Is our bridal chamber all ready?” After Jude and the other Gwake family members went off, Casius stood straight and firm as he asked his assistant without turning back. The woman behind him, who looked rather fierce and whom Buffy assumed was a replacement for Neely—and she was right—was Madison Fencer. She had previously been Neely’s assistant but was promoted to fill the position after Neely’s death. She was also professionally trained for combat. She looked expressionless as she said plainly, “Sir, the maids of the Gwake family are done decorating the bridal chamber. I’m sure you and Mrs. Weather will have an unforgettable night.” “A bridal chamber?” Buffy was shocked, her face ashened. The Gwake family did everything they could to win Casius’ fondness. They did not only invite him here, they even told the maids to get a bridal chamber ready. Buffy wanted to leave but Madison stood in her way. With a fake smile, she said, “Madam, you must stay here for the night
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2841 Sick Bastard
“From the moment Kaze took me back to his villa, he had never forced me against my will. He respects me. “If you are one-tenth of the man that he is, I might give you a chance.” Buffy looked at Casius with contempt and disgust. Casius simply listened but he did not take her words seriously. However, when Buffy talked about Kaze and compared them, the grin on his face disappeared. His lips started twitching and his eyes turned icy cold. Slap! Without any explanation, he slapped Buffy’s face again. Blood trickled from the corner of her mouth as her face swelled. The daughter of the Gwake family was being humiliated and attacked in her family mansion, yet no one came to her rescue. Buffy endured the pain and said coldly, “Casius, get the hell out or I will call the police! This is the Gwake mansion, not your playground!” “The Gwake mansion?” Casius scoffed, “Buffy, I never thought you were this naive, this stupid. Don’t you understand? Your father needed my support t
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2842 Grand Entrance
“Strip naked and wash yourself.” Casius walked up to Buffy while wiping his fingers with a paper towel. He peered down at her, speaking in a disgusting yet maniacal tone, “If you don’t know what’s good for you, I think I might beat you to death. “A woman like you shouldn’t end up dead. You are still young and beautiful. More importantly, your mother is still in rehabilitation. Are you going to leave her helpless and alone in this world?” Buffy glared at Casius with utmost hatred. She initially did not take his words seriously but when he mentioned her mother, her body shook and chills ran down her spine. Her bedridden mother, Tulip, was her biggest weakness. She acted as a good daughter in front of her father for so many years, behaved like a good girl in front of Faith, or Hope, and endured the injustice and grievances—all because she wanted to help her mother recover. Yet Casius used her mother against her. Despair consumed her from within. She could die without a s

Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3808 Say Hello
Dwight approached with a smile. He looked at Edmund earnestly. “I am Dwight McCorney. I have heard good things about you. I finally got to meet the man of the hour. “It’s an honor to meet you, Mr. Witterson.” Dwight was starstruck. Edmund was embarrassed by Dwight’s behavior. He could not believe that Dwight was a member of the Viper’s Den. Nevertheless, Dwight seemed genuine in expressing his thrill. Edmund became curious about him. He turned around to look at Kaze, who was the polar opposite of Dwight. Kaze stood there, holding his ground. He stood up to greet Edmund and nothing else. He appeared to be refined, unlike Dwight, who was brash. Dwight had no idea that his behavior had upset Edmund. Edmund looked at Dwight in disdain. However, Dwight was a member of the Viper’s Den. It was best for Edmund to keep his comments to himself. Without a word, Edmund stared at the pair. Ryan stepped in to smooth things over. “What are you doing? We have a guest here.
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3807 The Wittersons
Since Kaze would not change these people’s minds, he was better off doing what he wanted to do. “This vase must be valuable. I got to give it to Mr. Witterson. A display in the living room is worth so much.” Dwight had never seen so much luxury in one room. He had been to the museum, but the displays were nothing like he had ever seen before. The rich had the means to splurge. “Do you think this is pure gold?” Dwight turned to a gold statue. The design was to die for. The purity of color made it hard to doubt its authenticity. “I’m not too sure, but I guess most of the ornaments here are real.”Kaze watched as Dwight gasped in awe. Nevertheless, his behavior would clear any suspicion on Kaze. It could be a good thing. “I knew Mr. Witterson was rich. His businesses are doing well. “But I didn’t expect this sort of lifestyle. The gold must be worth a million dollars. “If I were this wealthy, I would not spend it on decoration.” Dwight rambled on, his eyes stuck t
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3806 Meeting Edmund
“I’m not familiar with the area. We’ll have to look around,” Dwight said behind the wheel. He looked for restaurants while driving. It was early, and many restaurants were not open for business. They circled the block and finally uncovered a small breakfast bar. They ordered some food, filled their bellies, and got back into the car. “Mr. Witterson said that he wouldn’t meet you. Why does he want to see you now?” Dwight was curious. Something must have happened last night. Otherwise, Edmund would not suddenly grant an audience to Kaze. “I don’t know. I had some drinks last night, and now he probably made time.” Kaze felt better after breakfast. He did not think much of the situation. Things would carry on as planned regardless of what the Wittersons or the Siegfrieds had to say.This was exactly what Kaze hoped for. Dwight remained in the dark. He drove to the city’s most exclusive area for the rich. It was all greenery in this part of town. The road was wider, an
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3805 Interest
After a brief hesitation, Kaze followed Rosie. The room turned out to be Rosie’s. Though not a big room, it was crammed with all kinds of junk. The place looked cluttered. Rosie approached the vanity table and grabbed the comb to comb her hair. She turned to look at Kaze. “You said a lot of stuff last night. Do you remember any of it?” Rosie spoke like they had been friends for years. It was just small talk. “What did I say? I don’t really remember. You made a lovely drink, but man, it really kicked in.” Kaze put a cigarette to his lips, but he did not light it. Instead, he spotted a chair to sit down on. “Well, it’s pointless to talk about it if you can’t remember.” Rosie was pleased to hear that. At least, Kaze had no idea that she had gotten him drunk. “Don’t leave me hanging.” Kaze looked peeved. “Are you off the clock?” Kaze asked. “Yes. I work odd hours. It’s time for me to sleep now.” Rosie stared at Kaze. “I shouldn’t keep you from resting.”
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3804 Apology
“Can you give me something for the pain?” Clemont had a low tolerance for pain. Standing on the stairway, Morris heard his voice and sighed. Clemont could do no good in his eyes. “Keep an eye on him. He’s not allowed to leave the house for the time being.” Morris believed the incident was more than meets the eye. Yet, Clemont was tricked into going to Absolute Zero and starting shit. There was no telling whether the Wittersons or someone else was behind it. Morris let out a sigh and returned to the study. He sent the butler to the storage room to fetch a few valuable antiques. These items were collected years ago, and they cost a fortune. Morris’ intention was to be on good terms with the Wittersons. There was no need to be at war with them. He had to do it for the interest of the Viper’s Den and his family. Morris was all about looking at the bigger picture. Otherwise, he would not have put up with all the bullshit before. Edmund would not let him off the ho

“Are you trying to kill your son?” Clara intervened. “You’re ruining him by spoiling him. If you want things to continue as they were, you can kiss him goodbye forever,” Morris said. Clara was lost for words. She knew better, but she just could not stop herself. Clemont had her heart. Clara could not stand to see him hurt. She was distressed. However, she knew that Morris would not get over the matter without beating Clemont up. She had to step in. “Hit him!” Morris was too old to do anything laborious. However, the kid would not go anywhere in life without a good beating. Despite starting trouble, he sure was arrogant to admit that he was wrong. “I see the errors of my ways.” Clemont apologized in time to avoid the punishment. He managed to escape all repercussions by doing so. Plus, his mother would plead on his behalf. The whole thing would usually get brushed aside. Though it was more serious in this instance, Clemont still believed that Morris would not hur
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3802 Bring the Cane
Morris was in his study, wiping a plaque of commandments that was covered in dust. Due to his commitment to the Viper’s Den, he had neglected his family for years and left his son in his wife’s care. Morris regretted doing so. Unaware of the impending danger, Clemont enjoyed drinks with his friends. They were having fun, playing drinking games. Losing the game, Clemont downed a glass of liquor. Things could get far and exciting in a game. It was then that the door swung open. Clemont’s driver entered the room. “Young Master Siegfried, the master is waiting for you at home,” the driver said, noting the complexity of the situation. The only thing on his mind was to take Clemont away. Tipsy from the drinks, Clemont waved his arm. “Let him wait. What’s the rush to get home?” Clemont’s friends were shocked. Nothing scared Clemont like his father. However, Clemont toughened up for once. “Young Master Siegfried, why don’t you call it a night?” “Yeah. I’m sur
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3801 Break Free
“What’s that supposed to mean? When have I ever made a mistake?” Morris heard nothing of that sort. It could only mean that his people had done nothing wrong. However, Edmund could not possibly get aggressive on the phone. Something must have happened, and he simply had no idea. Morris felt unsettled like something big was about to happen. “You seem to be lax when managing your people. You don’t seem to know what goes on around your house.“Is your age getting to you? Is that why you can’t handle most of the work? If you can’t get your own house in order, how will you ever manage the Viper’s Den Westeros Branch?” Edmund called to say his piece. It was his way to make Morris step down. Though it was likely that Morris would resign, Edmund could at least make things unpleasant for him. “What’s that supposed to mean?” Morris was completely in the dark, but Edmund must hold some secret to act so cocky. Despite his troubled feelings, Morris kept his cool and calmly aske
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3800 Got Into Trouble
Since it was a rare opportunity, Edmund had to settle the score with them properly. He knew opportunities like this were hard to come by so he had to seize them well. “I understand. I will take care of the guest,” Rosie said. She was glad that her information was useful to her boss. After Edmund hung up the phone, Rosie then looked at the unconscious Kaze. “You are indeed more useful than I thought. Hardly anyone has ever managed to impress Edmund.” She did not feel sorry for Kaze, believing that everything happened as it was meant to. She knew that to climb higher, she had to please her superior. With the Wittersons on the rise, now was the perfect time for her to pledge her loyalty to Edmund. When the Wittersons truly took over the Westeros Branch, she would become one of the most powerful people in the city, second only to them. She was looking forward to that day. Since Kaze was fast asleep and no arrangements could be made, Rosie went out to call her men and
