Semua Bab Guardian-In-Law: Bab 1501 - Bab 1510

The air crackled with tension at the start of the feast. To everybody’s surprise, Gareth demanded the new mayor show his face. Either way, the new mayor ran the city. Yet, Gareth, fresh off the plane, had utter disregard for him. Some who kept in the loops of things were aware of Gareth’s motives. Gareth did not come all the way to Lilyrose just to confront Kaze. He had his eye on the upcoming Lilyrose New City project. If Gareth could overpower the new mayor, Gareth would basically be running the city. Anybody who wanted to dip their fingers into the project would have to go through Gareth. The venue was pin-drop silent. Normally, no one dared to break the silence for fear of being caught in the drama. Nevertheless, the crowd was filled with anticipation. The new mayor had been in office for a while now, and he had never made a public appearance, not even on the local news. No one knew what the mysterious mayor looked like. Maybe the identity of the new mayo

Kaze said indifferently, “You’re out of your depth, so you used Gareth against me. Get lost. I don’t have time for you.” “You!” Trent heaved heavily and pointed at Kaze resentfully. “Fine. I’ll watch you crash and burn today.” Amid the strange looks from the crowd, Trent took a seat with an ashen face. He looked at Kaze grimacingly. “You sure are cocky in my party, Kaze. Do you even take me seriously?” Gareth said chillingly. Trent’s statement was the last thing on Gareth’s mind. The question of whether Kaze was the mayor was not important because the showdown between Kaze and Gareth was happening anyway. Kaze asked with a smile, “Aren’t you asking the obvious?” Tension hung heavy in the air. Kaze sure did not see Gareth as a threat. Gareth was upset. He eyed Kaze while figuring out where the latter’s confidence stemmed from. He was not in a hurry to set Kaze straight. “You’re taking things far by starting trouble here and disrespecting Mr. Hornberg, Lee.”

Darry exerted all his might. However, Kaze stayed rooted to the ground. “Fuck! Just kneel!” Humiliated, Darry shouted angrily, then raised his hand to hit Kaze. Kaze narrowed his eyes and retaliated with a slap. “Smack!” Blood bled out of Darry’s nose. Darry was knocked back and slammed into the ground, bouncing twice.He did not make a sound the entire time, not even opening his eyes. Silence befell the room. The crowd looked at Kaze, dumbfounded, their eyes widened. Kaze had the nerve to attack the Lyfes in front of Gareth. They wondered if Kaze was aware of his actions. “Darry!” After a long pause, Syed reeled in from the shock and ran to his son with a scream. “Are you okay, Darry? Are you okay?” Since it was not the time to lash out at Kaze, other members of the Lyfe family approached Darry, shaking and calling out his name. Alas, Darry was unresponsive. Syed came to a realization when he stared at Darry’s lifeless body. He reached out his trembl

Kaze demanded Gareth to leave Lilyrose. It was a last warning to Gareth. The crowd could not believe the words coming out of Kaze’s mouth. They suspected their ears were playing tricks on them. The whole thing was so bizarre. The Quints’ son-in-law just threatened Gareth, the renowned martial artist from Sunrise City. The roles should be switched. It would have made more sense if the threat came from Gareth. “Just do it, sir. Kill Lee!” “We need to make an example out of him!” “Show these bozos in Lilyrose that no one should challenge your authority!” Gareth’s disciples clamored savagely. For Kaze to insult their mentor, he was insulting them too. The disciples would jump on Kaze at Gareth’s command. The tension was coming to a breaking point. Amid the crowd, the heads of the Vikroms, Logmans, Joestars, and several others aware of Kaze’s identity were kept in suspense. Once Gareth chose violence, blood would be shed tonight in Lilyrose. Gareth stared K

One wrong step could have deadly consequences. The drama was so intense that it was easy to get completely lost in it.Many dared not make their stance known. “No one has met the new mayor before, Mr. Hornberg. He has never made a public appearance.” “He exercised his authority and fired several chiefs the moment he took office. One of them is the deputy mayor’s son, but Lou, the deputy mayor, is loyal to the mayor.” “The mayor intends to take over Lee Investment’s acquired hospitals even if it means making enemies with strong corporations.”“Many commented on the new mayor’s iron fist.” Under Gareth’s menacing gaze, a few succumbed to the pressure and offered the information they had.Nevertheless, they kept things vague and did not give detailed information on the new mayor. Gareth was not pleased. He turned to the heads of the Vikroms, Logmans, and Joestars. “I heard that you have emerged as the top three families after the God of War clamped down on the former three
