Semua Bab Guardian-In-Law: Bab 4601 - Bab 4610

“Are you saying that the enemy is doing this deliberately to set us up?” Charles asked in confusion. “You can send the message back to them that any request has to wait until the auction is over.” Kaze wanted to play by ear before deciding whether to meet. However, everything had to happen on his terms, not theirs. However, Charles could not see through the situation. It was a good opportunity, and they could just play the North State’s young leader into their hands and threaten the North State’s branch leader. The Viper’s Den in the West State’s reputation would be restored once they had leverage over the enemy. The people from the North State wanted to start a war, and for that, they should pay dearly. “Are we going to give up on a great chance? We can pretend to go along with the quest and come up with a plan like attacking when they are leaving,” Charles uttered, unsure of Kaze’s strategy. He had a feeling that it was not a chance to miss. “We might have trouble expl

“In that case, just tell them that they can meet Mr. Lee, but it has to wait until the auction is over,” Edmund stated. Ryan was puzzled at first since uneasiness gripped him. He wondered if the crowd would hold onto their horses even when their request was met. If these people played along, Ryan did not want trouble to come back to him and his staff. The situation was rather complicated. “But, Mr. Witterson, is this how we’re going to do it? What if the guests can’t wait any longer? What if Mr. Lee doesn’t show up when the time comes? What do we do then?” Ryan was worried that things would become beyond manageable. “Don’t worry about that. Mr. Lee won’t put the whole thing on me since he’s here. He’ll show up for sure.” Edmund was confident in cleaning up the mess. “So we’re going to do this?” Ryan still had some doubts. It would be bad if the situation escalated to new heights. “Let’s go with the plan. Even if something does happen, I’ll handle it,” Edmund said

“Well, I won’t take your advice. I understand what you’re trying to say, but I can sort out the work matters on my own.” Darcy looked at Agnes sternly, hoping she would not interfere with her decisions. The company was facing a brief crisis, and Darcy got everything under control. There was no need for Agnes to butt in and offer her to someone else. Darcy could not stand the arrangement. She was not against blind dates and did not mind meeting new people. However, she would rather not be pressured or forced into anything. Someone came to mind when she thought about blind dates. This person was very familiar to her, and it raised a lot of complicated emotions within her. Thinking of this person always put Darcy at ease. However, the annoyance slipped in because he was unpredictable, constantly doing the opposite of what she expected of him. Kaze would always be someone unique to her. He was a manager at her company. Yet, he was somehow present at the highly inaccessib

“Well, I’m crashing at someone else’s place. I need to save up some money. When I saw they were hiring here, I took the job.“Don’t worry. I’ll make sure this part-time gig doesn’t get in the way of my day job.” Darcy felt embarrassed. She had some speculations about Kaze’s identity. By right, he should not be at the auction. However, it never occurred to Darcy that Kaze was a part-timer there. Darcy stood there, stunned and lost for words. She felt ashamed of herself. “I didn’t know you were working here. I thought you were on the guest list.” Darcy looked at Kaze apologetically, realizing that her tone had been grilling. She was pretty rude to him earlier. It should not have happened in the first place. Kaze let out a helpless smile before nodding. “The matter doesn’t concern you anyway.” Kaze’s gentle and understanding tone made Darcy feel worse. “I thought that you were here as a guest. I didn’t expect you to be working here. I won’t hold this against you,”

Kaze looked at the mask that was put aside and put it over his face. He looked at himself in the mirror, certain that he looked different. No one would suspect a thing. Kaze combed his hair back, adding to an aggressive vibe to himself. He appeared to be one of a kind. Edmund stood there, staring at Kaze blankly. Simply by changing his outfit, Kaze’s entire demeanor changed a great deal.If Edmund had not witnessed it with his own eyes, he would never have connected them to be the same person. “Your worries won’t happen. I’ve got everything covered.” No matter what happened, Kaze could navigate through the issues with ease. Besides, Kaze planned the whole event, so he was in a position to sort out all the problems. “I’ll do whatever you say, Mr. Lee. I just feel uneasy. I don’t exactly know how to proceed,” Edmund uttered, pulling himself together. “Those with bad intentions will pay. Leave the rest to me. If you’re concerned, just keep a watchful eye on them. It’ll be
