Semua Bab Guardian-In-Law: Bab 4801 - Bab 4810

“You shouldn’t be running errands or doing the most menial jobs when you’re the manager,” Darcy uttered grimly, eager to see if Kaze would throw a fit and admit who he was. It did not make sense to Darcy that Kaze would keep a level head in the face of such humiliation. However, Kaze did not seem to care. “I’m an employee. I’ve done the most difficult tasks just to earn a living. With the right mindset, I can accept anything thrown my way,” Kaze said nonchalantly. At that point, Darcy knew she could not shake Kaze from his resolve. Kaze would not come clean, and there was nothing she could say or do to make him. It made her look pathetic because she made a huge fuss without achieving what she hoped for. “Don’t you think I’m picking on you?” Darcy asked angrily. She did not know what to do with him. Kaze did not seem to have a temper. The insult did not even get to him. A big man like Edmund would not be able to take the insult. Yet, Kaze embraced the challenges withou

“My brothers-in-arms will only lose hope if I abandon them now.” Lyra was not ready to accept defeat. She believed that time was still on her side. With the right counterattack, she could reclaim her rights and stop Cassey from succeeding. Lyra had to persevere no matter what. She rose from the chair and took quick paces out. Lyra went downstairs, where her people were ready and waiting. They had been eager to get their revenge. Lyra witnessed as her people, despite their injuries, struggled to stand upright and sharpened their weapons. These people knew what was coming for them. Yet, they did not give up. “Ms. Nash is here.” Someone in the crowd exclaimed, pulling all attention to Lyra, who stood on the landing. Lyra understood that these people were at the end of their ropes. They would not be able to hold out for long. If Lyra stuck around, she would only be captured, and her people’s sacrifice would be in vain. “When are Cassey’s people arriving?” Lyra a

Something did not sit right with Lyra. She was going to have a proper talk with Cassey and be straight with him in person. Maybe there was a chance for them to make peace. However, her messenger was killed on the way. One thing was for sure, and that was, Cassey had no interest in talking things out. Lyra would not stand by to be humiliated. She would fight back. However, something did not feel right when the incident came to mind. Lyra wondered if Cassey had ever met with her people. It was possible that there was foul play involved. Chills went down Lyra’s spine. It felt as if there was someone pulling the strings behind the scenes, pitting her against Cassey, and they had no idea. If that were the case, she had been played like a fiddle. She had lost so much. She would be furious if her people’s sacrifice was for nothing. The mastermind was trying to benefit from her conflict with Cassey. Even though Lyra saw through the perpetrator’s act, it would be hard to chang

Several black cars drove one after the other. They passed through the busy downtown area, not attracting a lot of attention. Lyra snacked on her food while contemplating her next steps. Things happened rather quickly, catching her off guard. She did not even have the chance to retaliate. Now that she had gotten her act together, resentment brewed within her. She had never been so defeated. The experience was new to her. Lyra knew what Cassey was made of. However, the latter seemed to be one step ahead of her and set her up this time. For some reason, Cassey suddenly became a brilliant mastermind. “Don’t worry about it, ma’am. We are arriving at the rest stop soon. Once there, we can leave in a chopper,” Fletcher murmured. Fletcher had planned everything out. They could get to their destination, take a break, and get out of there. “We should leave soon. Everything else can wait,” Lyra said nonchalantly, her eyes drifting outside the window. The people outside the win

Lyra had a hunch, but the news still took her by surprise. She thought that many of her men would survive the ordeal. However, Cassey was too brutal to show any mercy. “How could so many have been killed?” Lyra looked at the numbers on the computer screen, a sense of dread washing over her. Still, she was still in denial of the truth. “I don’t know. The information came from Quill. The situation on his end is slightly better, probably because the team there has no idea that you’re gone. If they ever find out, many more will stop fighting,” Fletcher said helplessly. Many things were out of his hands. Despite his frustration, he had to face the facts. “Things are getting worse.” Lyra was overcome by powerlessness. Even when she wanted to retaliate, there was nothing much she could do. The whole thing was just absurd. “There must be some sort of way, right? What’s your plan, Ms. Nash?” Fletcher asked unyielding as despair crept in. If Lyra did not have a solution, Quil
