Semua Bab Guardian-In-Law: Bab 3201 - Bab 3210

The Frosts were prominent in the South River State. Wallace was a man of power and wealth. Plus, he was an established deputy governor. He did not have to give a damn about anybody else. He could care less about Kaze. No one could change Wallace’s mind, not even if Kent were there. With that in mind, Wallace walked past Morgan and said curtly to the police force, “I expect you to be on this case.“You will report to me on every little progress. “I’m not asking for much. I expect you to respect the law, deliver justice, protect the good…” Wallace glanced at Kaze and stressed. “And punish the bad.” He carried himself with aggression and authority. Though nothing was said outright, Wallace basically stripped Morgan’s power and disregarded his opinion. Morgan grimaced hard. There was clearly no trust between them, and Wallace believed Morgan played favorites. Besides, Wallace ordered Morgan’s subordinates around, clearly bypassing his authority. Wallace’s behavior

“Despite your training, you were defenseless at the hands of Kaze. It appears the disowned member of the Lees is more powerful than we thought.” A woman’s voice, bearing a heavy Ryokanian accent, boomed. Reiko, dressed in a black and gold dress, brewed tea on her knees. Her delicate hands moved with grace and allure. There was a temptation to hold her hands forever. Aiden’s gaze turned cold. Shifting his eyes from Darcy and Snow, Aiden looked at Kaze’s photo in the center of the board. Embracing his urge to kill, Aiden threw his sword. “Swoosh!” The sword sank into Kaze’s face, piercing through the board. Aiden took a seat across from Reiko and smiled ruthlessly at her. “Well, he can’t fight weapons with bare hands. I can assure you that Kaze will not get away this time. “I want him to give up Crown Tower. Once I squeeze every little thing out of him, he can die.” “Oh?” Reiko poured a drink and passed it to Aiden. She said with a smile, “We can do our best, bu

Aiden’s words trailed off. The Ryokanians were never out to get Kaze. They were trying to bring Kent down through Kaze. The only conflict between Kaze and the Ryokanians was business rivalry, and there was no reason to escalate negotiable deals to a personal level. Kent was a different story. He was the mayor of Riverbank. He passed the bills for policies. One policy could decide the fate of a business. Kent’s policies could eliminate the Ryokanian presence in Riverbank. Kent must die. The Ryokanians could get Kaze out of the picture. If necessary, they could call it a truce with him too. That was what the Ryokanians thought. There was a fundamental difference between the Ryokanians’ attitude toward Kaze and Kent. The only thing on Aiden’s mind was to get rid of Kaze. Aiden simply took hits at Kent because the latter was Kaze’s supporter. He and the Ryokanians were after different things. Due to the lack of transparency in their communication, the plan had gon

“We have to assess the situation and plan accordingly. “Our goal is to remove Kent from office. Worst comes to worst, we can make Kaze give up on the piece of land.” Reiko lived up to her reputation as part of the Refined Blade. It did not take her long to pull herself together. She quickly determined a strategy. After a sip of her drink, Reiko said in a flat tone, “We can’t tell whether Wallace’s involvement in Kaze’s case is a good or bad thing yet. “He can stop Kent from butting in and keep Kaze with the state police. “On the other hand, we must slow down and stop all other operations. We cannot afford to make any mistakes.“We cannot underestimate Wallace. We risk losing everything if he catches us.” Aiden nodded, agreeing with Reiko’s perspective. “Ms. Hara, the evidence we provided to the state police is solid but not airtight. It won’t be difficult for Kaze to discredit it if he looks hard enough. “We pushed the investigation to focus on Kaze. The police simp

As the public watched in disbelief, the group of elderly individuals unfurled white banners and began protesting. “Where’s the justice? A young life is lost.”“Murderers must pay!” “Kaze Lee, you took my daughter’s life!” “Kaze Lee, the husband of Sky Ocean Corporation’s chairwoman, is a scumbag.” … The haunting messages on the white banners drew a lot of attention. Large projector screens, hung on the sides of the buses, played photo collages of Mika and footage of Kaze’s arrest. The group painted a picture of a pretty young woman killing herself after a man forced himself on her. The dramatic scene stirred a lot of emotions and curiosity. With attention drawn, many tourists pulled out their phones. Several older women wailed into megaphones, “Kaze is the devil! He must be punished for taking my daughter’s life!” Their grief and anger were heart-wrenching. As a crowd built, pamphlets were handed out to describe Kaze’s alleged harm to Mika. News of the incide
