Chapter 1008 New Deputy

Author: Five Generals
“Alright. We’ll leave it to Samson.”

Gregory nodded menacingly. “Kaze broke the legs of his son too. I bet he’s more eager to kill that bastard.”

Kaze had no idea that his brief stint as acting mayor would brand him a loyal supporter of Loid.

The Lees ceased fire for that reason, directly at least.

The next day, Kaze’s presence was requested at the meeting room when he arrived at his office at Hudson Investment Firm.

“Why are we having a meeting?” Kaze asked Sophie after stepping into the meeting room.

Sophie whispered, “Miru was here after you were gone yesterday, Mr. Chairman. She criticized your lack of accountability and informed us that her assistant would act as the deputy manager here.

“The new deputy is here, and she called for this meeting.”

While talking, a beautiful and commanding woman in a power suit walked through the door.

She glanced at everybody condescendingly and went on. “I should introduce myself. I am Jennifer Barwise. I am filling the role of

    Jennifer was surprised by Kaze’s compliance. The disdain she had for him ran deeper. “Alright, that’s it for today’s meeting. Meeting adjourned.” Jennifer clapped her hands, announcing the end of the meeting. She did not care whether Kaze had anything to say. She saw herself as the highest-ranked superior at Hudson Investment Firm. Once Jennifer was gone, the senior executives gathered around Kaze. “You’re the only leader for me, Mr. Lee. I’ll follow you wherever you go.” “That’s right, Mr. Lee. We will only take your orders. Ms. Barwise doesn’t even respect you. Why should we listen to her?” The group was eager to prove their allegiance to Kaze. Yesterday’s incident left a dent in them. These people would not take Jennifer’s side right away because Kaze backed off. “Enough!” Kaze yelled, interrupting the group’s chatter. The senior executives exchanged glances. They were only trying to show their loyalty to Kaze. Kaze should be happy. Yet, he looked pissed. “

    “I’m at the hotel next to the mayor’s office. Come over,” Kaze said. Soon, a young woman dressed in work attire drove over. Kaze parted ways with Caleb, Don, and the others. He asked Jennifer’s assistant, “What’s your name? Why haven’t I met you at the office?” “I’m Lilith Fair. Ms. Barwise asked me to join her from Lefteria Group,” the woman said proudly. She put herself above others because of her connection to Lefteria Group. Lilith pursed her lips at the smell of alcohol on Kaze. Sure enough, Kaze pulled strings to get where he was. He must be befriending the superiors at the mayor’s office by drinking with them in the afternoon. Lilith recognized these high-profile figures when Kaze parted ways with them. Nevertheless, Kaze was the CEO of Hudson Investment Firm by name, so Lilith was not surprised he could engage with these leaders. The way Lilith saw it, Kaze must be using his high-ranking position to establish connections with others. She had seen too many of K

    The crew gave Kaze a strange look. They thought the interviewee was a VIP. Instead, Kaze was a moocher bankrolled by his wife. The crew held Kaze in disdain. “Sherry, you’re the anchor of our network. Yet, Hudson Investment Firm sent a moocher in for the interview. Isn’t that disrespectful toward you?” “That’s right. I’d suggest getting someone else. A regular employee is better than a moocher who got the manager position by pulling strings,” the crew said. Knowing Sherry was not pleased with Kaze, they stood up for her. Lilith glanced at Kaze, assuming Sherry held a personal grudge against Kaze. Otherwise, Sherry would not be so quick to call Kaze out. However, Sherry’s attitude did not bother her. Lilith said, “Even so, Mr. Lee is the CEO of Hudson Investment Firm, Sherry.“Ms. Barwise said he will be making public appearances and helping with the company’s publicity.” Sherry understood Lilith was Jennifer’s assistant. She could tell from Lilith’s indifference toward

    “Are you ready, Mr. Lee? We should begin.” Sherry was professional, diving straight into work mode the moment the producer kept the cameras rolling. She said with a smile, “Today, we have invited the CEO of Hudson Investment Firm, Mr. Kaze Lee. Please say hello to the cameras, Mr. Lee.” “Hello, everybody. I am Kaze Lee.” Kaze waved at the cameras. Sherry said, “As everybody knows, the role of a CEO is very demanding. Experience is one of the essential requirements major corporations look at before hiring a CEO. “But after reviewing your resume, we discovered something rather strange. “Mr. Lee, you had no experience in investment before you took up the position as Hudson Investment Firm’s CEO. “To our knowledge, you have been living off your wife’s family. Is that true?” Sherry looked at Kaze and asked with a smile, “I am curious. How did you go from an unemployed house-husband to the CEO of a well-established investment firm?” “The questions seem a little too person

    The interview ended in half an hour. Sherry stood up and stretched happily, having acquired all the information she needed. The nearby male crew members ogled at her bare midriff. Sherry’s eyes flickered with delight, and she soon turned to Kaze sarcastically. “You are such a loser, Kaze. You don’t even have the guts to refute my questions.“Don’t you know how absurd you look? Should I get the cameraman to show you the footage? “You are going to be famous at the broadcast of the interview. You should thank me for the appearance. “Sure, you’re getting publicity for the wrong thing, but that’s one way for the public to remember you. “Your life is in my hands, Kaze.“If you kneel and lick the sole of my heels, I might consider editing the parts that make you look bad.” Sherry took jabs at Kaze, assuming she had him by the balls. Unfazed, Kaze said indifferently, “You’re nothing more than a gold digger, getting ahead in life with your personal assets. “You’re a little

    Soon, Jennifer gave Kaze a call. “I heard that you fought with the anchor during the interview, Mr. Lee.” Kaze replied, “Oh, that’s right. What? Are you going to tear into me like your assistant?” He could spare the young, naïve assistant. However, if a deputy manager like Jennifer still did not know any better, Kaze did not mind getting a new deputy. “No. You’re the superior, Mr. Lee. I wouldn’t dare lecture you.” Jennifer said curtly, “But I hope you will show a little restraint and think more for the future of the company, Mr. Lee. No need to compete over every single thing. “What would people think if they found out the CEO of our company was fighting with a TV anchor?” Miru was not happy with Kaze’s behavior yesterday, but she let Kaze keep his job. Jennifer understood that Miru had no intention of removing Kaze from office for the time being. It was not wise to clash with Kaze on her first day. While expressing her displeasure, Jennifer made sure to address

    “Sherry, I have never met the chairman,” Jennifer said in distress. Displeased, Sherry picked a fight. “Oh, I guess this is what your apology is worth, Ms. Barwise. I thought you called to apologize.” “I’ll see what I can do.” Jennifer could not handle shameless people like Sherry. She took Sherry to the headquarters of Perfect World Group and met with Snow, the chairman’s assistant. “Hello, Ms. Frost. I’m Sherry Zauer, the financial news anchor. I want to have an audience with your chairman.” After Jennifer introduced them, Sherry courteously shook Snow’s hand. Snow was not only the assistant of Perfect World Group’s chairman, but she was also appointed the chairwoman of Lilyrose Bank by the mayor’s office. Sherry would not dare think lightly of her. In fact, she felt intimidated by Snow’s presence. Snow was gorgeous. Sherry eyed Snow in secret. Her eyes quickly flickered with glee. Sherry, the experienced woman she was, determined that Snow was untainted. Snow

    “It makes sense. You are a coward who won’t even retaliate. I bet you are a masochist.“You get the kick out of women looking down on you. “But do you think I will fancy a loser like you? Only a capable man like the chairman of Perfect World Group can win my favor. “Give it up, Kaze. We don’t belong to the same world.” Acting all high and mighty, Sherry took digs at Kaze. She took her frustration from being turned away by Snow out on Kaze. “The chairman of Perfect World Group?” Kaze paused and said with a pretentious grin, “My advice to you is to give it up, Sherry. The chairman of Perfect World Group will never fancy you.” “Ahem.” Standing near them, Jennifer cleared her throat to warn Kaze not to get on Sherry’s nerves. She changed the subject and asked, “What are you doing here at Perfect World Group office building, Mr. Lee?” “I have some business here,” Kaze replied before brushing past them. All the while, he did not spare another look at Sherry. “The lose

    Based on Kaze’s deduction, Mika’s death was planned on the day of the Yemens’ party. Ryna and Cyan were rude toward Kaze and when Mika saw him that night, conflict was inevitable. Given Kaze’s attitude, after Mika got under his skin, he would surely say something like cancel her online to threaten her. With that, the prerequisite for setting up this plan was fulfilled. Kaze got the motive and the power to do so. Therefore, in times of need, Mika could be pushed to the forefront as a sacrifice. Mika’s death pointed all the arrows at Kaze, making him a suspect or even the killer. In fact, the entire incident should be coordinated with another secret plan to make the chain of evidence more solid and clear. However, Aiden was offended and slapped by Kaze earlier, so he decided to retaliate as soon as possible. It was the reason why the seemingly flawless plan started to have cracks. Despite Aiden’s hasty nature in doing things, Kaze was actually impressed by the masterm

    Lock instinctively took a step forward and said, “Ms. Quint, Ms. Frost, it’s a good deal. Given Mr. Krad’s power, he could easily get Kaze out. “One of you is Kaze’s wife; one of you is his assistant. You just can’t sit back and do nothing while Kaze gets sent to jail.” Worry consumed him and made him nervous. He lacked the power to save Kaze, but Aiden could and was willing to. The terms were not harsh and demanding either, but he neglected Darcy and Snow’s feelings. Noticing the ladies’ silence, Aiden continued, “Ladies, my terms are not harsh at all. It’s a good deal, for you and for Kaze. “Kaze can come back in one piece and we can sit down peacefully and talk over dinner. “For Ms. Quint, you and I might be able to reach an agreement regarding the land at Crown Tower; for Ms. Frost, consider it an explanation to the Frosts. Am I right?” The smile on his face looked sincere as if what he offered was purely to have dinner with the ladies without ulterior motives. Da

    Aiden narrowed his eyes. He never thought Snow would still reject his brother after all that had happened. He shrugged and then said to Darcy and Snow with a smile, “I am proposing a trade for you ladies.” “A trade?” Darcy was slightly surprised. She asked, “What trade?” She knew Aiden was up to no good, but worrying too much would only slow her down. She wanted to find out what Aiden’s terms were for releasing Kaze.Snow did not speak but simply looked at Aiden. Aiden sensed the concerns from the ladies and it somehow aroused jealousy in him. What charms did Kaze possess to make these two ladies fall for him? Discarding the messing thoughts, Aiden said, “You two are aware of the current situation. Based on the current evidence, Mika took her own life. “However, she’s a PR in Ryokan and her death might cascade into some problematic issues. As for how big it will snowball depends on Ryokan’s reaction. “You should know that I am quite close with the Ryokanians. If I sp

    “Mr. Krad! What brings you here…” “Young Master Krad!” The guests of the Yemens, who had been invited to the station to provide testimony, arrived excitedly and greeted Aiden warmly. Aiden made headlines on the first day he arrived in Riverbank, hence many people were already familiar with the young master from the Krads. However, when they came closer to greet him and saw his face, they sensed something strange. Aiden looked rather battered. His face was swollen and red, with a glisten on his cheeks as if he had applied cream or balm to ease the pain. Yet no one dared to ask what happened. Aiden smiled at Cyan and the others before he dragged himself over to Darcy. He forced a smile on his face and said, “Ms. Quint, we meet again so soon.” “What are you doing here?” Darcy asked, her tone frosty and her expression stiff. Aiden stroked his cheek and said without a bit of embarrassment, “I heard Kaze got arrested because he is suspected of murder. I heard of the news, s

    Snow helplessly said, “But as Chairman Lee’s assistant, my words do not have credibility and they aren’t accepted by the police. “More importantly, everything happens too fast and the coincidence is uncanny. Villa No.9 should be a private property, how did Mika sneak inside so easily? “According to the butler, Mika told him that she was Chairman Lee’s guest. As servants to the wealthy and powerful, the butler and the others had gotten used to extra company, especially from a female, so they allowed her in. “However, such speculation won’t work with the police. Mika is dead, so they said it was Chairman Lee who called her to the villa. “I was the one who slapped Mika and canceled her, but as his assistant, it could be said that I was instructed to do so by Chairman Lee. “That’s why the whole thing feels off, especially when all the coincidences overlap. Everything is against Chairman Lee.” Listening to Snow’s explanation, Darcy’s expression darkened. According to what she

    “Mika could not handle the stress and embarrassment, so she tried to fight back. Kaze must have physically beaten her and also canceled her on every social media platform. “If it’s the truth, then Kaze is a horrible person. Not only did he try to rape her, but he also ruin her career and future. What a monster. “He used to be a quiet person when he was at our house, not like this…” Cyan explained. Ryna then scoffed. “That’s why a villain like him must be executed! I was smart enough to never show him any hospitality and stopped him from coming to our house. “Otherwise, if he had his eyes on Cyan, he would ravage her and even kill us all!” Ryna did not hold back in criticizing Kaze. She even chose to ignore the fact that she tried to curry favors with Kaze at the dinner. Lock could not bear listening to this wife and daughter criticizing Kaze. He frowned and bellowed, “You two, mind your words. “The officers said Kaze is just a suspect. The investigation is still going on

    It was as though the man did not expect Kaze to remain calm under the pressure of so many guns pointed at him. The man frowned and then raised his hand, saying, “Move the car and let them go.” “You guys go ahead,” Kaze said to Conan and Darcy. Conan nodded. He quickly turned the car away and left the encirclement. “Which car am I getting into?” Kaze asked as he scanned over the cars. He pointed at the one the middle-aged man was sitting and said, “Can I take this? It seems more comfortable.” The annoyance on the man’s face grew distinctive but he remained silent and nodded. Kaze went over to the shiny new car and got into the back. Armed officers got into the car as well, occupying the other side of the rear seat and the passenger’s seat. Kaze smiled and did not mind the extra security. “Whrrrrr.” The siren went blaring as the motorcade brought Kaze away. Back at Rivername’s residential area, both Villa No.11 and Villa No.9 were sealed by police lines and there

    Kaze pretended to be unfazed. Despite his dislike and disgust for Mika, Kaze was sad about the loss of her life. That was all there was to it. He had no idea how Mika’s death was linked to him. Since the police were on his case, something must have been going on. Aiden’s revenge, despite the reckless elements, was carefully laid out. The middle-aged man scoffed and replied, “We have learned that Ms. Suka has been seen in Villa No. 9 on the night of the Yemens’ house party. “Ms. Suka left in tears and a handprint on her face. “Her social media account was canceled, and her talent agency dropped her. She had to pay an exorbitant price due to the breach of contract. “Ms. Suka had been under a lot of stress these few couple of days and attempted suicide several times. She must harbor a lot of resentment toward you. “You, on the other hand, are a shareholder of TikTok and the son-in-law of the Ridgesouth Quints. You command power in Riverbank. She’s just a girl without a

    Conan nodded and started the car to head to Villa No. 9. Out of nowhere, three police cars sped over, their blaring sirens shattering the peace in the area. With one in the front and two in the back, the police cars surrounded Kaze’s ride. “Thud!” The doors opened, and armed police officers jumped out of their vehicles. The officers spread out and took their positions, aiming their weapons at Kaze’s car. Several officers in plain clothes emerged from the sedan in the back. The middle-aged leader looked inside Kaze’s car before gesturing to two armed officers. Two armed officers yanked the back door open and yelled at Kaze, “Get out now! “Keep your hands in the air.” Kaze got out of the car and looked at the middle-aged man. He asked in a daze, “Officer, we have a property in Rivername. We are law-abiding citizens. What’s the meaning of this?” Ignoring Kaze, the middle-aged man sized him up and asked without looking, “Is it him?” “Yes, he’s Kaze Lee,” another pol
