Semua Bab Guardian-In-Law: Bab 3971 - Bab 3980

Hallie was just looking out for herself. The only fault she had was picking the wrong guy. Kaze kept his gaze on the glass, not even engaging with Hallie. He could not speak on Hallie’s struggles since he had no idea. “Aren’t you going to comfort me or something?” Hallie thought she could gain some sympathy, but she found that Kaze was heartless. “Do you need any comfort? I thought you were a go-getter. You know what you want. You don’t need comfort. You’re out for sympathy. That’s how you’re going to hit on me.” Kaze cut to the chase as if he had read Hallie like a book. Hallie was taken aback. Kaze was not a familiar face in the upper crust. However, he was good-looking, tall, and charming. Hallie could imagine a good life as his wife. It was just a shame that Kaze’s nasty personality put her off. “I still don’t know your name. I recall Clarice hired a new bodyguard named Kaze. Are you him?” Hallie probed. If the guy were not Kaze, Hallie would drop a hint that Claric

Worst of all, learning that Clarice had bought the suit for Kaze disappointed Hallie greatly. She thought she had found a catch, but Kaze was nothing more than a bodyguard. “Now that you mention it, I did shop for your clothes. The custom suit is expensive, and it can’t be washed. Why don’t you wire the money to me?” Clarice smirked at Hallie. At that moment, regret finally kicked in. Hallie should have known better than to cross Clarice. “You’re the boss, Clarice. I’ll get you the money.” Though life was tough on Hallie, she was not deprived of material things. She might need to tighten her belt a little and cut back on buying designer dresses, but she could afford the money. There was no way she could get out of paying Clarice.“You’re really something. I can’t believe you’d grin and bear through it all.” Clarice was pretty mean in the heat of the moment. “I see my mistake, Clarice. I just wanted to know who he was. The girls are curious, too. We don’t want you to be tak

The driver may be familiar with this part of the city, but even he did not know where to go when at the crossroad. Kaze frowned. Although he spent most of his time with Clarice, he did not know her well enough because she was never his objective. “Where should we go now? If we’re going up, it’ll lead to the freeway with no speed limit; if we go down, we’ll go back to where we came from,” the driver said. Kaze did not know which way to go, but knowing Clarice left in a car, she must have wanted to take a drive to clear her thoughts. “She’s just mad. She won’t go anywhere else.” One thing was for sure: he did not know her well enough to know where she would usually hang out. “In that case, we should take the way back. I recall that Ms. Clarice has bodyguards with her. Should we try their phones?” the driver asked as he dialed the number. Kaze started to worry. Morris had not acted against the Wittersons, not because he had surrendered but because he was waiting for a chan

“Something is wrong. It’s like someone rammed into Ms. Clarice’s car,” the driver said. He looked at Kaze with a serious look, not knowing what their next step should be. “Ms. Clarice has always driven carefully. She would never toy with her life. Someone must have tracked her down and caused her to crash, but she’s nowhere to be found. I believe she was taken,” he added after analyzing the scene. He looked around, trying to find new clues. He did not know what to do because things had escalated beyond their control and had reached a dangerous level. “I think she’s been abducted,” Kaze said calmly. He had not anticipated someone would be bold enough to pull that off right in front of him. Whoever did it had serious skills. Kaze did not even notice anyone tailing them. If he had realized it earlier, maybe they could have stopped it in time.“What? Who would abduct Ms. Clarice? Who has the guts to oppose Mr. Witterson now?” the driver asked, baffled by the situation. “You

Kaze thought of someone, but he did not have the time to meet, or rather, he did not want to expose his relationship yet. However, if he could not handle the matter well, he would have to meet this particular person eventually. He never intended to use that connection, but things had spiraled out of control. Ryan brought everyone to the Siegfrieds’ mansion as his men had found out that Morris came home straight after the business meeting. Ever since the last incident, the man had kept a low profile, barely making any moves. Edmund was still furious about what happened, and no matter the cost, he was determined to find Clarice. They had already spent a massive amount of effort blocking off exits on the freeway, trying to track her down, but nothing useful had turned up.He could not be too open about the search either, because once his enemy used his actions to incite public opinion against him, the situation would spiral out of control. More importantly, Edmund was afraid that M
