Chapter 3674 The Viper’s Den’s Wrath
Kaugnay na kabanata
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3675 Always Bounces Back
Katie pulled out her phone and dialed the Viper’s Den’s internal number. “It’s me, Katie. I need consultation on a matter.” The moment the call was picked up, Katie adopted a respectful attitude while making the query. Jet had always known that the Viper’s Den operated with remarkable expertise. Katie, the CEO of the Northborn Group, was also a member of the Viper’s Den. However, he did not expect Katie to be so respectful when making an internal phone call. He was surprised. The pressure was on. Judging by the level of respect Katie had demonstrated, Jet realized the consequences could be dire if he did not make timely payments. Jet broke into a cold sweat just thinking about the possibility. Nevertheless, Jet had no other choice. He was too deep to back down now. “Jet Frost would like to apply for a loan. He is experiencing cash flow issues. The money will keep his business running like a well-oiled machine.”Katie gave an account of the situation before waiting for a

“I’ll have to pass on dinner. I have other things to do,” Jet said, rejecting the suggestion. “I have not eaten anything yet, why not just accompany me?” Katie refused to let this chance slip. Jet glanced at Katie and recalled how she helped him today. It would be rude and inappropriate for him to reject her again, so he reluctantly nodded. “I’ll have to trouble you again, Madam Loren.” “You don’t need to worry about your business partner dropping out. Talk to him and if you guys can’t reach an agreement, tell him to wait for the money. It takes time,” Katie said as she picked up her purse and walked out of the office together with Jet. “That’s what I thought as well but he’s too stubborn. I can’t convince him,” Jet said with a bitter smile. “You are still young. You don’t need to worry about that. Even if the business partner drops out, it won’t greatly affect you. Your priority is to restart other projects and nothing else. As long as you can secure the cash flow, they wi

“Madam, maybe Jet has been blinded by his anxiety and he didn’t notice your intention,” Joey said nonchalantly. “I have high hopes for him. I want him as my son-in-law, but it seems it’s too early to decide. I have to observe properly.” Katie was truly disappointed in Jet. Joey did not say anything else. She was just glad that Leah could wait a little longer. Maybe the girl would soon meet her Prince Charming. “Where’s Leah? Is she at the mansion again? I haven’t seen her for a while now. You should bring her out when there’s a gathering, let her make some friends.” Katie initially wanted to keep her daughter at home not just because of the circulating rumors but also to prevent her from meeting the wrong people. Now that Jet had become a disappointment, she hoped her daughter would attend more parties and meet new people—perhaps even her Mr. Right. “Maybe her phone is out of battery,” Joey said, trying to cover up for the girl. “Out of battery? I think she’s trying t
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3678 Bad Wins
Murray gave Jet the cold shoulder out of revenge. Jet probably came to talk to him, hoping to convince him not to drop out. Murray knew about it, which was why he refused to meet Jet. However, Jet had been waiting outside the office building. If he continued to stay, Murray could not go home, which annoyed him. However, he was living the moment and did not mind leaving the office a little later. Murray’s office building was located in the city center. Although not that big, it was situated in the trade center. It was a central hub for news and information. Jet waited in the car, ignored by Murray, while the bystanders were treated to a good show. Most of the bystanders were just common employees in the trade center. The conflict between the powerful and the wealthy did not matter to them. Everyone just treated it as a bit of gossip and did not take it to heart. Being ignored irritated Jet. “Why isn’t he out yet?” Jet could not agree to the Viper’s Den’s condition,
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3679 Hundred Times Payback
“Can we talk about that?” Jet suppressed the anger in his heart, trying to keep himself calm. He must negotiate with Murray for the man to stay because he could not agree to the Viper’s Den’s condition, which would leave him with no money for funding. Murray wanted his investment back but if the man did not get his money, he would do unexpected harm to Jet’s businesses. Jet was between a rock and a hard place. No matter how difficult or how unwilling he was, he had to come up with a solution. “There’s no way I’ll agree. I told you before. Give me the money and I’ll give you back the shares. Then we’ll call it an end, and I won’t hurt you in any way. If you don’t return my money, I’ll make it difficult for you. “You should know that your projects are suspended. Once the investors find out about it, they will also drop out. You will spiral down a deeper abyss.” Murray spoke earnestly, trying to persuade Jet, all in an effort to get him to cooperate. “That is correct.” J
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3680 Messy Rumors
“What are we going to do? Should we just cancel the dinner?” Aloysius was worried. Once they step into the room, things might spiral out of control. “We are at the entrance already, how can we leave just like that? Besides, Mr. Gwake is expecting us inside. He won’t let us go so easily. This whole thing is a trap. They are ready to torment me.” Jet wore a calm look, covering his true emotions. The calmer he looked, the stronger the flame of anger burned in his heart. “This is too much. They can just talk with us but they chose to set us up. They are taking advantage of our situation.” With a calm smile on his face, Jet walked to the room. Murray was walking in front, occasionally glancing behind him. When he saw Jet following, his grin widened—he even gestured an invite at the entrance. “Mr. Frost, you are the host tonight. You should be in the main seat,” Murray said. “It’s not appropriate since everyone is Mr. Gwake’s friends. I shouldn’t be in the main seat.” D
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3681 No Need for Courtesy
“I see. Then I guess we have to observe for a little longer. But if we really drop out, will the company be able to return the money? It’s quite a sum,” Vince asked out of concern. Murray casually sipped on his cup of tea, ready to enjoy the show. He had set this up meticulously, intended to target Jet. “Don’t worry everyone. If you have the intention to leave, I will not make it difficult for you. We’ll go according to the procedures.” Jet tried his best to calm them down. “Great. If we really drop out, I hope you won’t go back on your words, Mr. Frost,” Murray seized the chance and said. “Of course. But don’t say I didn’t remind you, the projects are going to profit soon. If you leave now, it’s just not worth it. I am doing this for your own good. Why not observe it first instead of being impulsive and rash? Don’t do something that you will regret,” Jet added as a reminder. He tried his best to look calm and confident so that the business partners would believe him, thi

“What are we going to do now, Mr. Frost? If we cannot satisfy Mr. Gwake, he’ll cause more problems.” Aloysius was at a loss for action. “What else can we do? Find a way to get the money. Now, other than the Viper’s Den, no one is willing to lend me money.” Jet was forced to the edge already. If he could not find a way out soon, he would fall into the abyss. “But the Viper’s Den’s condition is too harsh. If we take their offer, it might affect your position within the Frosts.” Aloysius knew the stakes and he wanted to stop his employer from making a rash decision. However, on second thought, there were no other options left. “I really don’t want to, but what happened just now made me realize that I don’t have a choice. Tell Madam Loren that I want to meet her tomorrow.” Jet had been through a lot in a day. He was both mentally and physically exhausted. “I understand. I’ll send you back.” Aloysius then drove Jet back to the mansion. Jet collapsed onto his bed and fell

Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3770 Go for It
“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
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3767 Your Choice
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
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3766 Worried for Nothing
“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
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
