Kaze did not expect someone would ask him to leave while he was dining. “Can’t you see I’m eating? Why must I leave?” Kaze remained seated. He did not even look at the security guard. “Hmph. I don’t care if you are eating or sleeping.” The security guard glared at him like a ferocious tiger. He was from a professional security firm experienced in escorting celebrities and VIPs. Andrew Shawn and Liv Ackerman were the two biggest celebrities in the entertainment industry at the moment and their fans could get rough easily. Some fanatics would even get information about their idols’ flight and hotel information so they could buy the same flight or check in to the same hotel. The extreme fanatics would even book a room at the hotel one month in advance just to see their idols up close. It was a nuisance to the celebrities as it would disrupt their normal lives. Other than zealous fans, there were also haters whose existence would threaten their safety directly. Kaze w
“Just because you’ve never heard of it, doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist.” Kaze scoffed. The special operations team was more secretive than normal soldiers. Even their files and documents were coded with numbers only, so it was normal that these security guards had never heard of them. Then, another group of people came in. The leader of the group was a petite woman in glasses. She looked harsh and cold. When she saw the security guards surrounding Kaze, she bellowed, “What’s going on here? You guys still haven’t cleared the restaurant? More and more fans are gathering outside. If something bad happens, are you going to take responsibility?” “Ms. Young, this person refused to leave and claimed he’s having some spec ops team lock down the hotel,” the leader of the security guards said ingratiatingly. At the same time, he shifted the blame to Kaze, indicating that he had nothing to do with the delay. The other security guards nodded. When faced with the tiny woman, these bu
Kaze did not expect Lily to continue her arrogant tone after having made known that he was the owner of the hotel. As the owner of Lily Garden Hotel, he had the right to decline a customer’s check-in. Yet Lily made it sound like it was a favor done by her celebrities for choosing his hotel—it made no sense. Manager Keegan approached Kaze and whispered, “Boss, as top celebrities, they are quite influential. If they released a statement that puts us in a difficult position, it might affect the hotel’s business.” “Really? How influential are they?” Kaze scoffed. Influential? How exactly? Lily was infuriated that Kaze refused to believe her. Then, the commercial vehicle’s door opened up. The celebrities exited the car and the security guards escorted them through the sea of barricaded fans to enter the hotel. Lily was aware that Andrew and Liv had come in, so she called them over to the restaurant. “Lily, what’s going on?” Andrew and Liv came over. Kaze sized up the
Draco was shocked. He could tell his boss was furious. He immediately said, “Boss, Koga just updated me that he’s nearby, observing the hotel’s surroundings for better planning. It’s to ensure your safety.” “I don’t need him to ensure my safety. I just need him to lockdown the hotel. He has one minute!” Kaze angrily hung up the phone. If there were anyone who could actually threaten his safety, then not even the Garo Spec Ops Team would suffice. Pft! Lily cackled. “Look at you, still pretending! Do you really think you are some military commander? One call and you summon the army?” Andrew and Liv laughed as well. They heard about Kaze claiming to lock down the hotel with his troops, which was amusing. While they were still laughing in stitches, endless cries of surprise came from outside the hotel. The fans gathering at the entrance looked up to the sky and saw a dozen attack helicopters appear. The noise of the spinning blades filled the entire airspace as they hov
The elite soldiers were no fans of the celebrities. Their only objective was to seize the hotel, put it on total lockdown, and ensure a VIP’s safety. “Sir, report, sir! We have total control of Lily Garden. The VIP’s safety is secured!” The chief tapped on the earpiece in his ear and updated Lone Wolf on the situation. He had eyes on Kaze and was cognizant that Kaze was the VIP the team was protecting. “Very well. I’ll be there right away!” An excited voice came through the earpiece. “VIP? What VIP? There’s a VIP in the hotel?!” Lily, Andrew, and Liv were mortified. Soon, a man in a military uniform appeared at the entrance and came to the restaurant in a hurry. When Lily and company saw the man, they turned pale. A brigadier general! An actual brigadier general! Someone they could not afford to mess with! Their faces looked as pale as paper. Who was the VIP in the hotel? That was right, they had no idea who the VIP was. They wanted to apologize and ask for
Lily and the celebrities wished they were dead when they heard Kaze. They tried to make him apologize and even claimed that they could make his hotel go bankrupt. They had hit the biggest snag in the world. “S-Sir, you are obviously someone powerful. We dared not ask you to apologize to us. We should be the ones who apologized to you. Forgive us for being blind…” Lily begged meekly. “Powerful?” Kaze’s expression turned grim. He sneered, “If I am not powerful, you wouldn’t apologize to me but the other way around. You even threatened to bankrupt my hotel by posting stuff online.” Andrew and Liv almost passed out when they heard Kaze because Kaze clearly remembered what they said to threaten him earlier. Chills ran down their spines. They messed with someone they could not afford and there was no turning back. Lily shuddered in fear. “Sir, we’re sorry. We shouldn’t ask you to leave, or threaten you…” She peeked at the soldier beside her. The black muzzle was pointed at
The Garo Spec Ops Team retreated in a flash and the hotel resumed normalcy.The fans outside the hotel were confused. They saw the elite soldiers put the hotel on lockdown and bring their idols away. “What happened? Are Andrew and Liv going to be okay?” “They are so kind and hard-working, why are they arrested?! They will never do anything wrong! The soldiers must be here to protect them!” They made their speculations.Back in the hotel, Manager Keegan and the hotel employees took a while to regain their composure. They did not expect their new boss to be such a powerful figure in the military. One phone call and the Garo Spec Ops Team arrived. How awesome was that!? They were proud of their new boss. Manager Keegan said respectfully, “Boss, should we allow those celebrities to check in later?” The foolish celebrities offended his boss, so to clarify his boss’ thoughts, he had to inquire properly. Kaze waved and said, “If they want to stay here, let them, but tr
Kaze was indeed surprised. He had only ordered a few dishes and they cost almost a million. Besides, caviar was not his favorite and he found home-cooked food tasted better. Since Miru wanted to have lunch here and he was buying, he simply ordered a few dishes to fill his stomach. Now looking at the food he ordered and the bill, it was not worth it at all. “What’s wrong? Afraid? You ordered quite lavishly just now.” Miru was delighted to see the shock on Kaze’s face. She thought she could hit two birds with one stone—settle the bill while getting rid of Kaze—with around twenty thousand, but the idiot ordered too much and she ended up forking out an extra eighty thousand. However, for the sake of her best friend’s future, the million would be well spent. “Kaze, now you know how much ordering at a high-end restaurant costs? This is the highest quality of life. Do you think you can provide Darcy with this kind of life?” Miru seized the chance to sneer at Kaze. Kaze s
