Semua Bab Guardian-In-Law: Bab 3881 - Bab 3888

Phoebe did not want to marry a man she looked down upon, but she did not want to lose to Clarice either. Even if she fell behind Clarice, she did not want to waste her life with the stupid Clemont. Jorge sighed deeply as he watched his daughter contemplate the decision, but there was no rush. He, too, was observing whether the idea was executable. The Siegfrieds made a good offer. If Jorge agreed, the young ones would just have to meet up, and not much discussion would be needed in the arrangement. Jorge saw it as a good chance to attack the Wittersons’ influence. “Think about it. If you’ve come up with an answer, let me know. I’ll arrange for you to meet Clemont.” It was as though Jorge had gotten a confirmation from his daughter. After all, he knew his daughter well enough.Without saying a word, Phoebe got up and headed upstairs in silence. Although she knew what her father meant, she could not convince herself to compromise with the decision, hence her refusal to answe

“I thought you were here to capture me. Why are you the one running away now?” Kaze sounded resigned as he stepped forward, trying to approach the assailant. Jan was shocked, but he did not want to give up just yet. He had to capture Kaze no matter what, even if Kaze was stronger. However, he was left with no choice as Kaze had blocked the only exit. There was no way out.“I’m curious. I’ve been lying low in Westeros and never crossed anyone, so who would send a hitman after me?” Kaze spoke like a man caught in someone else’s trap—more confused than angry, almost like a victim. Jan forced himself to keep calm, hiding in the corner as footsteps drew closer. He was waiting for a chance to strike back. As a professional hit man, patience was crucial, and staying hidden while figuring out how to use the terrain to his advantage was also vital to his work. That was how he was trained. He used to serve an international mercenary group and was a ruthless man who killed without flin

Jan finally knew fear. He had never met someone as scary as Kaze, who could strike fear in him with just a glance. “Oh, so you can speak. I thought you were mute or stubborn.” Kaze was not overly surprised by the answer. Other than indirectly ruining some people’s lives, he had not offended anyone in Westeros, so maybe Jan was sent to eliminate him because he got in those people’s way. He just did not think Clemont had the nerve to come after his life. It seemed Edmund was a little too lenient with his methods. Otherwise, Clemont would not have the time to send a hitman after Kaze. “You knew?” Jan looked at Kaze with surprise. If Kaze already knew, why did the man interrogate him? “So? I just wanted to get more information from you, but you’re useless,” Kaze said. He did not want to kill Jan in Dwight’s house, but he could not spare the man so easily either. As such, he had to permanently disable Jan so that he would not be able to recover. “I didn’t know you would be s

Dwight nervously put the box on the table and then took the watch out. The watch was near mint, with no visible scratches, since it had only been worn a few times. Bunsen thought Dwight had just dropped by to chat, so he did not expect Dwight to show up with something to sell. He knew Dwight as a member of the Viper’s Den, but he was just a nobody there, and yet, he came in with an expensive watch to pawn. “This is good. It’s a well-known brand, and this is a limited collector’s edition. Can I ask where you got it? We have to know where it comes from before taking anything in,” Bunsen said with a smile. He looked friendly and calm, but deep down, he was nervous because of the initials on the back. The initials spelled ‘CG’ or Clarice Geofrey, when elaborated, meant the watch belonged to Clarice. Dwight knew why Bunsen wanted to know, but he did not steal or acquire it illegally, so he chose to be honest. “A friend gave it to me, but it’s not my friend’s either. He got it from
