Chapter 611 A Million Dollars   

Author: Five Generals
“Hello, Mr. Yale. Is there anything I can do for you?”

Reminded by the reviewing panel’s hypocrisy, Darcy sounded rather indifferent.

“Our committee has reviewed your proposal again, Ms. Quint, and we believe you could be eligible for funding.

“Why don’t you drop by, and we’ll have a talk?”

To Darcy’s surprise, Federick was not just fobbing her off.

He had audited her business proposal once more.

Federick turned out to be serious and responsible with his work.

Maybe she got the wrong idea about Federick.

He might not be in cahoots with those people. He probably did everything he could so as not to rub the Sunrise Lees the wrong way.

“Thank you, Mr. Yale. I will be there right away.”

Darcy ended the call with a thrill.

“Who is Mr. Yale?” Kaze asked.

Darcy replied enthusiastically, “He’s the head of the reviewing committee and a faculty member of the University of South River. He said he looked into our proposal again and believed we have a good chance of getting

    “Mr. Yale, you have underestimated me.” Darcy said coldly, “I rather not take dirty money.” She would not agree even if billions were offered to her, much less 10 million dollars. Federick was insulting her to expect she would sleep with him for 10 million dollars. “Can money be dirty?” Seeing that Darcy stood firm on her ground, Fedrick’s patience wore thin. He had toyed with many students over the years. All it took was a little carrot and a stick, and they all came crawling to him. It infuriated him that he could not get through to Darcy. Federick got up and walked to the office door. Click!He locked the door! “What are you trying to do, Federick?” Struck by a thought, Darcy turned white and uttered angrily, “We are in a professional setting where people come and go. You won’t get away with assaulting me.” “So you do know we are in the office of the reviewing committee.” Federick sneered, “Since Quartet Group’s business proposal failed to make the cut

    “Mr. Yale is a faculty member of the University of South River. You’re vile to lay your hands on him!” “You are Darcy, the chairman of Quartet Group. It’s a unanimous decision of the committee that your proposal didn’t make it past the preliminary review. I can’t believe you would take up a personal vendetta against Mr. Yale. That’s outrageous of you.” The group was up in arms, criticizing Darcy sternly. “It’s not what you think. Federick threatened me to sleep with him and tried to force himself on me. My husband hit him to save me. It was an act of self-defense,” Darcy jumped in to explain before things could get way more out of hand.However, the group only believed the truth in front of them. No one would take her word for it. “Bullshit! Mr. Yale is a highly respected member of the community. He would never threaten you to sleep with him. Who are you trying to fool?” “I can’t believe you’d try to play the victim and push the blame on Mr. Yale. He can’t speak for himse

    Footsteps approached. The chief of police, Don, arrived at the scene with officers in tow. “Chief Braders, arrest these two individuals at once. They waged a personal vendetta against Mr. Yale and slandered us for taking bribes.” Malcolm recognized Don. When the reviewing panel was selected, Don and Johnson the Mayor were there to welcome them. Johnson was courteous to the experts on the committee. Malcolm ordered Don around the moment the latter arrived. Ignoring Malcolm, Don turned to Kaze and Darcy. He was relieved to see them safe and sound. Don nodded at Kaze before facing the group with a stern look. He waved his arm. “Take these experts away for questioning.” The police officers went to apprehend Malcolm and the others. “Why are you arresting us?” “This is an outrage. We are the experts. On what charges are you arresting us?” The dumbfounded experts exclaimed angrily. Kaze and Darcy should be the ones cuffed. “What’s the meaning of this, Chief Brad

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 615 The Arrest of the Experts   

    “Mine is an old man with one foot in the grave. I can’t be more repulsed.” The group of beautiful women identified each and every expert. Two of them even pointed their fingers at the same person. Malcolm and the others turned flushed in the face. All their secrets were laid bare. Even the most innocent knew what was going on at that point. Malcolm and the other refined-looking experts sought escort services together last night. “Cut the bull crap. Why did you provide services to them if you felt disgusted? It’s always about the money,” Don lectured in annoyance. He then turned to Malcolm’s group and uttered curtly, “Samus Quint arranged the meeting for you after midnight. “We have records of Samus’ bank transactions. He paid more than five thousand dollars for each service. I guess he went for premium escorts.“We also obtained video surveillance of them entering your hotel rooms.“What do you have to say for yourselves?” The other members of the reviewing commit

    “You are a prominent businesswoman in the city, Ms. Quint. I’m sure your proposal will make the cut.” Johnson curried her favor. “Thank you, Mayor Brooks.” Darcy was overjoyed and even nodded at Johnson while walking away. Johnson broke out in a cold sweat. The nod was too much of a courtesy to accept. “Mr. Lee, um…” Kaze waved his arm, showing that he did not mind at all. Relieved, Johnson said, “I have looked into six billion dollars approved to the Quints and the Lees. The money has been wired to them. “I got my people on the case to get the money back.” “I see,” Kaze responded. Soon, Johnson got a call. His face turned horrified. “What’s wrong? The money can’t be recovered?” Kaze scowled, but it was not surprising. The Quints might cough the money back out. However, the Sunrise Lees would not honor the wishes of a mayor. “My contact mentioned that the Quints and Lees are at the auction as we speak, buying the top three families’ assets like there’s

    “Pipe down, or people might think we are so full of ourselves.” Darcy pinched Kaze, but the joy was written all over her face. She said in haste, “I need to get back to the office. I can’t let the God of War down. I need to make the most out of the one billion dollars.” The support fund was transferred to the corporate account rather swiftly. Darcy was motivated and driven with ambition. She had her eyes set on the top three families’ assets and intended to put in her bids at the auction. Nevertheless, she did not go at it blindly like the Quints and Lees. She put her team in charge of evaluating the value of the businesses. Besides, Darcy did not have massive funds like the Sunrise Lees. She did not want to stretch herself thin. Kaze kept Darcy company in her office, but she did not have time for him. Hence, he left. He exited Clover Center.Snow's Maybach was waiting at the side of the road. She was not the only one waiting by the car. Mathias was there too.

    “They are still in a bidding frenzy.“The Quints just asked for a loan, and they are using their newly purchased assets as collateral for a one-billion-dollar loan.“I approved the loan as you have instructed, Mr. Chairman.” Snow was still the chairman of Lilyrose Bank. She could be considered the queen of all the bank systems in Lilyrose. “Master Quint is an idiot. He’s so self-absorbed that he thinks he can play the game like the Sunrise Lees.” Kaze shook his head. He had no qualms about sharing his real opinion about Master Quint behind Darcy’s family’s back. Kaze lost all respect for the old man. “Darcy wants to join the auction. Pick a larger-scale business with good prospects for me, Snow. I want to get it for her.” Kaze added, “The one billion dollars she has isn’t enough.” Knowing Darcy, she would not borrow money blindly just to expand her business. She would not go beyond her risk tolerance. Hence, Kaze decided to buy a firm for her. After much tho

    “If you’re staying at the resort tonight, what about work tomorrow?” without suspecting a thing, Darcy asked without looking up. She knew that Kaze had sought employment with Shangrila Group. Kaze replied, “It’s okay. Winnie will take care of things in Shangrila Group. It’s fine if I skip a day of work.” “That’s not the right attitude to work. Ms. Souffle is so kind to offer you a job. You should take the work seriously. The least you can do is ask for some time off.” Darcy lectured him. “Alright. I’ll take the day off.” Left with no alternatives, Kaze called Winnie to ask for leave. “My friend in junior high, Nancy, is a hotel manager at Mountain Dew Estate. I’ll sort out the reservations with her.” Darcy called to make reservations. “Book two rooms.” Agnes walked into the room. She stared at Kaze warily. Still feeling concerned, she called Sky over. “Sky, you should go with your sister to Mountain Dew Estate too.” Sky noticed Kaze glaring at him. It then da

    As they arrived, they saw a dozen expensive cars parked outside. The customer base was relatively stable as the establishment was targeted at the upper class. The people lining up at the club were young men and women of ordinary background. All were allowed inside Absolute Zero with an entrance fee. Since this would be a chance for ordinary people to meet and interact with the upper-class elites, they cherished it and tried their best to look good. Even movie producers and scriptwriters came to the club, seeking investments or a role in movie production. It was a shortcut to reach out to the upper crust after all. Yet they were just a bunch of fresh graduates with no resources and connections, so the club was their only chance at achieving something great. Dwight would never understand how rare the opportunity was, as he was narrow-sighted. He had never experienced power and wealth before, so he lacked the understanding of how things worked in society. “I never thought

    With that in mind, Dwight checked his outfit. His black leather jacket brought out his height and wild side. He then observed Kaze. The latter was dressed casually. Dwight was worried that they would not be allowed into Absolute Zero because of their attire. Nevertheless, he could not let slip that he had never been to Absolute Zero. Without a word, Dwight led Kaze down the apartment building. Kaze could pick up on Dwight’s nerves. While in the elevator, Dwight could not stop straightening out his clothes. It was clear that he was nervous. Even so, Kaze said nothing and pretended not to notice. They got into the car and drove to an alley. The area was not huge, but there were stands selling street food. “The food is great here. Since it’s early, we can grab a bite.” Dwight was not being tight with money. As their destination was a bar, there was no need to get a proper meal. “I’ll get a skewer then.” Kaze did not have much of an appetite anyway. “Okay. I’ll or

    “You’re the guest. I should be hosting you, but I don’t seem to be doing a good job.” Dwight knew he had to do better. “It’s okay. I don’t have much to do. It’s just a delivery anyway.” Kaze bought a lot of stuff online. All they had to do was wait for the delivery. Once the items arrived, they could head out. Dwight talked about taking him to a bar under the Viper’s Den’s umbrella. It was a great opportunity for Kaze to check out the scene. He had heard that the Wittersons were tied to all the Viper’s Den’s business operations.Kaze would not meet Edmund and Morris in person, but he would grasp all information related to them. Then, Kaze would stir things up between them and sit back while reaping the benefits. Kaze had it all planned out. He simply had to take his time in playing the long game. Nevertheless, it was important for him to remain discreet. At the very least, he should not show them what he was made of. It was easy to execute his plan when everybody

    Kaze rose to his feet and took something out of his bag. Putting on his jacket, he was on his way out. Dwight was out of his room, too. He left his room for a glass of water and waited for Kaze to get out of the room after his nap. Dwight had a drink in the kitchen. He took an apple and chomped on it. Looking at the fruit on the table, Dwight grabbed a plate to arrange it neatly.He took out his phone to pass the time while waiting for Kaze. Kaze emerged from the room and saw Dwight. “You’re up at last. You’ve slept half the day away. Are you still tired? I can wait if you need to catch some sleep.” Dwight kept Herman’s memo to look after Kaze. “A little. I didn’t get any sleep last night. I was waiting to get on the plane.” Kaze took the red-eye flight yesterday. Dwight allowed time for Kaze to rest, knowing his travel schedule. “I know. Did you manage to get some good sleep? If you haven’t, you can go back to bed. I can grab some food for you.” Dwight’s plan

    “Your main responsibility is to entertain Kaze. You will be rewarded for good work,” Herman said. Dwight nodded incessantly. “Thank you for thinking of me, Herman. I won’t forget this.” “I’d be grateful so long as you stay out of trouble. “Just focus on what you should do and take good care of Kaze.” Herman worried that Dwight might get ahead of himself and forget his primary duties. Dwight’s priority was Kaze’s well-being. The whole thing would be over if Dwight kept to himself and served Kaze until he was gone. There would be a problem if something were to happen. Without Edmund’s instructions, Herman would never have assigned a job to Dwight. It could be a good thing, though. At least, a job might keep him on the straight and narrow. “Relax. You can count on me,” Dwight said with glee.That was a nice surprise. Dwight did not see it coming. It was just incredible. Herman still could not shake off his worry. However, he had said his piece. It was pointless t

    Herman’s smile vanished. His red, irritated skin was playing up. Due to alcohol in his system, Herman could not see straight. He had to grit his teeth to hold back the urge to retch. Herman was not one to drink. Yet, he would have to go through Edmund’s loyalty test every time, and he was reaching a boiling point. However, he understood that he needed to suck it up to gain Edmund’s trust. “You must be Herman. Mr. Witterson. Should I take the things to your car, or should I deliver them to your home?” asked a uniformed server who approached. “Put them in the car and get me a designated driver,” Herman replied. He headed to the lobby while propping himself against the wall. “Okay. There will be a driver out front, ready for your service.” The server tried to help Herman up, but was declined. Herman saw the cartons of alcohol and cigarettes in the lobby. Edmund had always been generous in giving out stuff like this. “These are from Mr. Witterson. You’re lucky to work for

    “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

    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

    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.
