With that in mind, Sherry approached Roland, a trace of her fragrance lingering in the air.

“Can you drop us a little hint about the mayor, sir? We don’t want to upset him without knowing it,” Sherry said coyly.

The sultry in her innocence was like a drug to men.

Roland gasped sharply and pulled himself together before uttering with a smile, “You’re right. I should at least give you the heads up.

“But I don’t know a lot about the mayor. I do know that he’s young. He hasn’t hit his 30s yet.

“He got things done the moment he took office.

“You must have heard about Noah Moor, Lou’s son, getting sacked from his job at the Ministry of Health and Welfare.

“The deputy mayors now have the utmost respect for him,” Roland said.

It was no secret that the new mayor was in his twenties.

However, Roland did reveal a key piece of information.

The termination of Noah and the other mid-level superiors rocked the community last night.

There was a new sheriff in town.

    The mayor was supposed to meet with the candidates. Yet, he took off. Sherry and the others were dumbfounded. With the mayor showing up and suddenly walking away, the group was left to wonder if they attended the meetup for nothing. Nevertheless, they kept their thoughts to themselves, not showing their annoyance on their faces. Sherry was disappointed. Without the mayor in sight, she could not unleash her irresistible charms. Roland returned on his own. “Sir, does the mayor have an emergency?” Sherry hid her disappointment behind her smile and asked. Roland scanned the group with a grimace and said curtly, “The mayor said that someone among you is a mean, indecent, nasty piece of work who would do anything to get a head start. “He doesn’t want to be pulled into a scandal with the individual, so he canceled the meetup.“The mayor also said that this individual is a disgrace to be nominated for the award for exemplary work. “In light of that, the commendation ceremo

    “Are we going for lunch later, Sherry?” Outside the mayor’s office, a male candidate handed Sherry a bag ingratiatingly. Sherry left her bag in the building when the group was kicked out. “I’m in no mood for lunch.” Sherry snatched her bag and walked away, unbothered to play the sweet and gracious woman. She was beautiful and the headliner of the network, always the center of attention wherever she went. Yet today, she was thrown out of the mayor’s office. Though a storm raged within her, Sherry dared not act on her anger. It was the fault of the nasty piece of work who ruined things for her. Sherry was determined to figure out a plan to meet with the new mayor. She had to win his heart. “There you are, Sherry. Here, have a drink.” Zenny scrubbed the floorboard in a residence. He hobbled to get Sherry a glass of water when he saw her. Afraid of Kaze’s revenge, Zenny stayed put in Sherry’s home and waited for the woman on hand and foot. Kaze could never guess

    Annoyed by her good-natured friends, Darcy turned off her phone. “I thought Kaze said he could deal with the situation, but things are getting worse,” Darcy said with a pale face. She was in Horizon Mirror Mansion, and the issue drained her. “I told you a long time ago not to trust him.” Agnes was frustrated. With the secret about Kaze’s position in Shangrila Group out, Agnes planned to meet some old friends to brag about her good son-in-law. Now, she was too ashamed to meet them. She could not bring herself to leave the house either. The judging looks and backhanded comments seemed to follow her wherever she went. “Kaze is the chairman of Shangrila Group and the CEO of Hudson Investment Firm. Yet, he can’t handle a measly TV host. Is he incompetent or what, Darcy? “I think Kaze was scamming others under an alias associated with Shangrila Group. “We all know how he got the position of CEO at Hudson Investment Firm. “He is just a loser with no self-respect. “He’s

    Darcy was ticked off because Sherry was clearly playing with her. Still, Darcy held it together and replied, “Ms. Zauer, I want to apologize because Kaze and I upset you. “Quartet Group is happy to fund your program.“Kaze has gotten his punishment and recognized his mistake. “I hope you will see it in your heart not to take your anger out on our family,” Darcy pleaded humbly. “He has recognized his mistake?” Sherry sneered. “Ms. Quint, your husband didn’t recognize his mistake when he made me kneel in public and lick his shoes. “Tsk, tsk. This is when karma claps back.“Besides, you are an entrepreneur representing all the women in the city, Ms. Quint. You’re young and beautiful. Why care about a loser?“You should just get rid of him. I’ll introduce young, eligible bachelors to you. I can promise that these men are much better than your loser husband,” Sherry mocked. Sherry was not serious about introducing fine men to Darcy. She was simply using the opportunity to

    “Lefteria Group merged with Perfect World Group recently, so Miru might know the chairman. “I guess I’ll need her help.” After much consideration, Darcy gave Miru a call. Miru was speechless to receive the call from Darcy. She was embarrassed to tell her best friend that she had never met the chairman either. Her multiple requests to meet the chairman had been denied. Nevertheless, the incident with Kaze had repercussions for Darcy and Hudson Investment Firm, which was under Miru’s care. Miru replied, “Alright. I plan to meet the chairman later to give him an update on the situation. I could bring Sherry along.“Just tell her to come straight to me.” Relieved, Darcy gave Sherry the news right away. “You work fast, Ms. Quint. Since you are eager to resolve the issue, I will spare your loser husband after I meet with the chairman.” Sherry’s promise gave Darcy’s family a breather. Thank goodness Sherry wanted something out of the deal, and Darcy happened to have som

    “The chairman said to kick her out.” Snow sounded harsh and repulsed. She imitated Kaze’s tone on the phone. Sherry was stunned, her face grimacing. She could not believe the chairman would want her to leave. That was impossible. She was the pillar and star of the local network.She was the woman of every man’s dream on screen. The chairman could not possibly demand her to leave. Snapping out of her trance, Sherry scoffed. “Ms. Frost, I bet the message didn’t come from the chairman. You must be jealous of me. You’re afraid of the chairman seeing me.” Sherry was convinced Snow was jealous of her. Snow blew her off when she asked to see the chairman the last time. Sherry believed she was denied access to the chairman because Snow came in the way. “You are a sad woman, Ms. Frost. You stop every beautiful woman from seeing the chairman to safeguard your relationship with him. “Tsk. You are so insecure.” Believing her own story, Sherry looked at Snow pitifully.

    Sherry stood there, dumbfounded. She was in disbelief. Sherry was the star of the local network, the woman of countless men’s dreams. Yet, she was not worth the mention to the chairman of Perfect World Group. That was not the only thing. She was trash who did not deserve to meet the chairman. Sherry had no idea she was merely paying the price for her decision. When she used her body as a weapon to climb her way to the top, she had cut off her path to join higher society. No man was foolish. Sherry was a woman to have fun with, not someone men would take home to make their wife. Her future husband would not be better than a naïve member of the nouveau riche. As reality sunk in, Sherry said exasperatedly, “What’s so great about your lame chairman anyway? “The nerve of him to make such a vile comment about me. I’ll have my friends in the media to dig out dirt on him. “Perfect World Group will have to pay for his crimes. “Karma’s a bitch!” Losing her cool, Sherry

    Soon, the media in the South River State reported on Kaze in great detail. After the warning from Ray, Sherry did not target Hudson Investment Firm, a subsidiary of Perfect World Group. The news report downplayed Kaze’s relationship with Hudson Investment Firm and focused on his affair with Winnie and his usurpation of Shangrila Group. To capture the readers’ attention, Sherry revealed another dirt. Agnes’ medical mishap which led to a girl’s fatal death was rolled out once more. For that reason, Agnes would not even leave the house. A crowd stalked outside Skylar View District, demanding justice for the victim’s family. Agatha had been in touch with the Otters to put in the good word for Agnes. She hoped the Otters would accept Agnes back into their lives again. Following the news report, the Otters would not even take calls from Agatha anymore. It was as if they disappeared off the face of the earth. Various media outlets even wrote that Agnes was disowned by the Ot

    “Kaze, you bastard! How dare you ask Patrick to break up with Maxine? Who the hell are you to say that?!” “Patrick introduced you to a job, yet you ignored him and tried to convince him to break up with Maxine. How could you be so narrow-minded?!” “You’re living a terrible life but that doesn’t mean others should live the same!” Alex, Adam, and the others criticized Kaze for what he said as it was frustrating. How could he instigate Patrick to break up with Maxine in front of them? It was like pulling a treasure box away from their hands! It was disrespectful to the family! Patrick’s expression darkened. He hugged Maxine tightly and said coldly, “Maxine and I are tight. You don’t need to worry about that. Whatever problem that comes my way, I’ll just deal with it. “The more problems she gets me into, and I solve it, means I am more capable than other men. Only an incompetent man would dislike the woman causing problems for himself.” Maxine hugged Patrick even tighter.

    Patrick looked shocked. “Huh? He’s a live-in husband? So he has been unemployed?” Kaze looked at Maxine and Patrick, who were obviously asking for trouble. He smirked and nodded. “I guess you can say so.” Everyone heard his answer. Those who were simply watching from the side were surprised that he admitted it so quickly. Their gazes at him showed a strong sense of contempt. How could a man like him deserve a woman like Darcy? Even if he did not manage to marry himself into Darcy’s family, he still should not be qualified to even be her follower. Patrick did not expect Kaze to be so witty. It caught him by surprise and it left him speechless for a moment. It was until Maxine nudged him, he regained his composure and scoffed. “Is it because you didn’t get any suitable jobs? “Why don’t you tell me what you are interested in, I can recommend you. My company has been recruiting lately, like security guards or janitors. “For Maxine’s sake, you can simply pick a job under ten

    “I just got it!” The man was Maxine’s new boyfriend, Patrick Weather. The smile on his face was bright. “I have been working for my cousin, Casius, and I have been performing well, so he rewarded me with this Cullinan. “I literally just got it just now and I wanted to surprise you.” Knowing that the young man was Casius’ cousin, Kaze raised his brows and spared an extra glance at him. Everyone at the scene knew who Casius was, so their eyes on Patrick showed respect. Casius Weather, one of the Riverbank Seven. His status and power could easily pressure everyone at the scene, combined. “You’re always full of surprises! It’s just a Cullinan, you don’t have to keep it from me!” Maxine playfully punched Patrick in the arm but her eyes widened with affection. Her boyfriend’s arrival made her proud and happy. She even felt proud in front of Darcy, who had been overshadowing her. “Uncle Alex, hi…” Patrick then went up to the seniors of the family and greeted them. He the

    Many guests went up to Darcy to make acquaintances, especially the younger ones. They were not just attracted by Darcy’s status but also her beauty. If they could win her affection, then it would be a harvest of beauty and wealth. No man could resist the temptation. Darcy knew exactly what the people were thinking. Just as she was surrounded by people, as annoying as flies, she dragged Kaze over and said, “Let me introduce you, this is my husband, Kaze Lee.” Kaze looked at the “flies” who looked at him in shock and smiled. “I’m Kaze Lee. Nice to meet you.” “Oh? Ms. Quint is married…” The young men glanced between Kaze and Darcy, unsure of how to react. As the atmosphere grew awkward, they could only chuckle uncomfortably. Adam knew Darcy was using Kaze as a shield and it displeased him. He said, “Darcy, Kaze does not share a common language with them. “They know you are a businesswoman and want to talk business with you. Their fathers are our family’s close friends and

    “You’re going to give your brandless cigarettes and wine to my mother? Hmph! It certainly is an idea only you can come up with.” Agnes waved at Kaze in disgust. “Go, go to the side and don’t disturb us.” Darcy disagreed with the suggestion. After a quick thought, she said, “I think we should just go with some jade or something elegant for Grandmother. It’s more acceptable.” “Sounds fine to me. It’s settled then.” Agnes agreed with Darcy’s suggestion. Almost 11:00 AM. After choosing the present, Darcy and her family went off, together with Rose, who had been freeloading at their house since yesterday. Kaze glanced at the jade bracelet that Darcy picked and it was not particularly impressive. He quickly packed two boxes of cigarettes and two bottles of wine into a black plastic bag and then stored it in the trunk of the car as a backup gift option, just in case. If Madam Otter was displeased with the gift Darcy picked, he might be able to give the special cigarettes and w

    “Tsk. Tobacco and wine? Kaze, what friends do you have? Why are they giving you these?” Agnes looked disappointed and upset. She rolled her eyes at Kaze and said, “Be mindful of what friends you made. Can’t they give you something better? “Look at the boxes! It’s like they picked it up from the streets. Putting them in front of our house makes us look bad. Just throw them away.” “This is my house. I can put whatever I want in it.” Kaze took one of the boxes, opened it up, and gave the person in charge and his team a few cigarettes. “Thank you, guys. Here. Can you help me move the boxes inside?” The person in charge and his team nodded and smiled and then moved the boxes of tobacco and wine inside. Kaze’s offhand response left Agnes annoyed but recalling the sharp sting of his slap, she chose to be quiet. She grunted coldly and then went back into the house, bumping into Darcy who was coming downstairs. She said, “Darcy, your Uncle Alex called earlier and told me the O

    Kaze saw it as a mere errand, so he nodded and said, “I’ll drop by tomorrow.” “Haha, with Boss showing up, this is in the bag already. I’ll tell Ryken that you will be going there.” After the call, Kaze headed to the bedroom and tried to go in but the door was locked from the inside. “Why don’t you sleep in the other room? I have to work late and I don’t want to keep you up.” Darcy’s voice came from inside. It seemed like she was still jealous of Buffy. Kaze chuckled helplessly and then headed to the guest room. On the second morning, after his morning jog, Kaze came back to the villa and saw people delivering boxes to his door. “What are these? Who sent them?” Agnes asked. Her eyes lit up when she saw the boxes. She always had the bad habit of taking advantage of things whenever she could. The person from management said politely, “I’m sorry, we don’t know. A car came by earlier and left the boxes with us. The driver said they are tobacco and wine, specially prepared

    Darcy sounded calm but Kaze felt troubled. It was obvious that she was jealous. Kaze awkwardly chuckled and said, “Darcy, why would I stay outside while you are at home? Besides, Buffy has Dayton and his friends at her place.” As he spoke, he walked over to hug Darcy by the waist. Hearing him, Darcy’s jealous expression softened but she still tapped his hands away and said coldly, “Go take a shower.” Kaze breathed a sigh of relief and quickly went to the bathroom. After his shower, he received a phone call from Draco. He answered it and asked, “What is it?” “Boss, the Battle Dragon Troops’ battalion, the Flying Dragon, just came back from the battlefield and was ordered to join the South River Strategic Department. “But you know how those fellas behave, arrogant and feisty. Other than the boys from the God of War Palace, they looked down on everyone. “They got into a little argument with Aaron Krad, the new guy in the South River Strategic Department. “I thought o

    Buffy sighed. She knew Kaze was right. Even if Jude was ready to let go, Faith’s birth family, the Krads, would not allow it either. Unless Jude had the resolve to break away from the Krads but it was impossible. No matter how many connections Jude had, the strongest and the only reliable support was the Krads. Like Kaze said, desperate times require desperate measures. Whether Jude and Faith wanted it or not, they would eventually bow before Kaze and accept his terms. “Kaze, if my father holds his promise, will you really cure Faith?” Buffy asked out of curiosity. Kaze smiled. “Of course. I am not like your father. If I said I will do it, I intend to deliver, since curing Faith doesn’t cost me anything. If she comes after me, I’ll just swat her like a fly.” He sounded casual and calm as if it was a casual chat. Buffy was curious. She never understood how Kaze got the confidence to do everything as if there was no obstacle big enough in his life to stop him. “It’s mid
