Semua Bab Guardian-In-Law: Bab 1301 - Bab 1310

Desmond shuddered when Kaze’s piercing gaze fell on him. His several experiences with Kaze had been rather traumatic. Nevertheless, Desmond quickly pulled himself together and sneered. “Do you really think I’m scared of you, Kaze? I dare you to hit me.” He gave Kaze a dirty look before turning to his agent, Emma. “Show the loser what I can do.” Emma nodded and waved at a staff member. Soon, a group of journalists with microphones swarmed into the hall. “You agreed to an interview, at last, Lil Dee. What are your thoughts on donating one billion dollars after the heavy storm hit the city?” “I heard many major labels are looking to make you their spokesperson. Can you share any details with us?” Desmond was popular. The press circled Desmond like sharks. As his agent handled crowd control, Desmond said out loud with a smile, “I might not be a local, but my studio is here. I donated one billion dollars to rebuild the city. “Some local businessmen or chairmen do not e

Kaze pulled out his phone and called Conan to come over with backup. Kingston scoffed in disdain. “Who are you bluffing? Conan doesn’t scare me even if he arrives with his dad.” With Desmond backing him up, Kingston was not afraid of anybody. Nevertheless, Kaze’s attitude did not sit well with Kingston. “Look, Lil Dee. Lee still doesn’t take you seriously.” Kingston cocked his head back and stirred things up. Pulling a long face, Desmond said chillingly, “You’re knee-deep in trouble, but you are still clueless, Kaze. Get in your head why you are here today. You are here to save yourself and your wife’s family. “You better get on your knees now if you don’t want to die.” It had been two days since Kaze attacked him, and Desmond turned the Internet against Kaze. Even Lilyrose Commerce Guild, an institution his wife worked at, and Rove were involved. Desmond heard that the members of Lilyrose Commerce Guild caused a scene at the guild, leaving Darcy rather overwhelmed

Desmond’s staff was relieved. They started hitting Kaze with a tirade of abuse. Kingston watched the drama and mocked, “Is that all you got, Lee?“You’re a loser. Bluffing is the only thing you have up your sleeve.“Do you think you can contact the Red Foundation to send you proof? Who do you think you are? “I know Mr. Nanas of the Red Foundation. Should I call him over to hit you?” Kingston held Kaze in contempt. The Red Foundation was a nationally recognized charity. While Kaze held sway in Lilyrose, he could not possibly stand against the Red Foundation. Kaze looked askance at Kingston and said with a pretentious smile, “You probably can’t even get Greg here. You can keep asking for it. I don’t mind sending you to prison with him.” News of Greg’s arrest had not been spread yet. Kingston and Desmond had no idea that Greg was finished. “What are you saying, Lee?” Kingston was visibly upset. “Ms. Holan from the Red Foundation’s Lilyrose branch is here, Lil Dee.”

“But Mr. Hobbs, Kaze is just using the media to his advantage.” Desmond said in distress, “The press wants a headliner. They work in the media and have the resources. It will take a lot of money to settle them down.” “Then, spend a lot of money to set them straight. We are all in it for the money.” Samson said menacingly, “Just do what you are told. Make the press stand with us to crush Kaze. “If Kaze wants to dig his grave, we might as well ruin him once and for all.” As expected from a veteran in the business. Samson was able to get a grip on himself during the time crunch and figured out a way to turn the tables on Kaze. He gave Desmond careful instructions. Desmond went from being flustered to gaining confidence and composure. In the hall, some journalists pulled out their laptops to pen out an article. No one wanted to pass up reporting on the big news. They edited the headline and article, making the news piece as eye-catching as possible. Desmond put away

“What did you say? Tax evasion? Care to elaborate, Kaze?” Desmond froze. It took seconds before he started flipping out. Desmond could still explain himself for faking the donation. The Red Foundation only made the one-billion-dollar donation public this morning. He could still save his skin because the press was on his side even if the truth was out. Desmond could always say that the donation would be in installments. However, if he were found to be evading tax, the public would not stop at just grilling Desmond. He would become the victim of a public witch-hunt. The press fell silent once more. They stared at Kaze, who smiled faintly. Getting goosebumps, Kingston stared intently at Kaze as a bad feeling overcame him. Kaze looked too composed for his liking. It was the silence in his confidence that was terrifying. Kaze glanced at Faye and said with a smile, “Show him the document.” Faye held some papers in her hand. She went up and tossed them on Desmond’s f
