Under the people’s astonished stare, Leigh demanded Kaze to let him sleep with his wife. Even the passersby could not stand his arrogance. “He thinks he can do anything just because he is rich? Ms. Quint is also rich but she’s not an asshole like you!” “Yeah. Get out of the city, you filthy jerk! Lilyrose isn’t your dirty playground!” “He has the money but not the character. He really thinks he’s above the law.” The people criticized Leigh for his disrespectful words. Leigh did not even take the people’s criticism seriously. He smiled and frivolously said, “Shut up, peasants! You can’t do shit about it! You people should think twice before talking to me like that. Have you heard of the Sunrise Glitters? Oh wait, I forgot Lilyrose is a shithole. You filthy peasants are like cavemen! “No one in this city can lay a finger on me, let alone stand in my way! Look, no one is here to stop me after what has happened.” Leigh disrespected not only Kaze and Darcy but also the peo
Leigh raised his brows. He scoffed. “We’ll see about that.” He had never even considered Kaze as a person. Even though Kaze was the chairman of Shangrila Group and not just any peasant, he was nothing compared to the Glitters. Leigh believed even the mayor of Lilyrose would be afraid of him once he revealed his family’s name. “Kaze Lee, I’ll give you a chance. You can call whoever you want, you call the mayor for all I care. “But if you can’t get anyone who has the balls to touch me, don’t blame me for getting rough. Not only must you compensate me, but I get to sleep with your wife. Your time starts now…” Leigh grinned as he stared at Darcy’s seductive body. Darcy was scared. She did not want to waste her time with the pervert anymore. She tugged at Kaze's sleeve and said, “Kaze, why don’t we just pay…” Kaze shot a killer glance at Leigh. “Darcy, believe me. This is Lilyrose.” He calmed her down and then pulled his phone out for a call. “Don, my wife and I are caug
The officers quickly wrapped up their investigations on site and came up with a result. Leigh grinned when he saw Don ordered his men to sum up the situation. It seemed like Don had decided to side with him, blatantly. “Kaze Lee, I told you. At a place like this, no one dares to lay a finger on me. Now I can have fun with your wife.” His grin widened as he pervertedly scrutinized Darcy. He was already picturing all kinds of filthy sex positions in bed. He was not afraid of Kaze backing on his word. Kaze said coldly, “You should be grateful that there are people here, or else you will end up terrible.” He was the mayor of Lilyrose, so he had a reputation to maintain. Even though not all the people knew about his new identity, it would be revealed sooner or later. It was also the main reason why he did not resolve in violence this time. Otherwise, he did not even need to contact Don and could take care of Leigh and his goons himself. “I’ll allow you to continue bark
“Y-You hit me?! You are a police officer! This is police violence! Do you want to get canceled?!” Samuel covered his face, shouting as he looked at Don in disbelief. “A slap is the lightest punishment for you,” Don said coldly. He then said to his men, “This man here is suspected of obstructing justice and threatening a police officer. Take him away.” The people cheered once more. They did not find the slap on Samuel’s face to be inappropriate. Samuel was also arrogant, like Leigh, and through Don, the people were relieved of their grievance. A goon of an arrogant prick threatened the police chief of the city? A slap was a small warning to remind him of the integrity of the police force. Leigh’s expression turned grim knowing that Don slapped Samuel without hesitation even after his identity was revealed. He finally realized his background did not scare Don. If he continued his arrogant attitude, given Don’s feisty temper, he might be slapped as well. With that, L
At Nobel Hotel, Kaze and Darcy were welcomed by the hotel employees. All the employees had a strong impression of Kaze after he made Harrison, the consul of Paladia, kneel in front of the hotel. “Hi, can you please inform the representatives of Four Ocean Commerce Guild that the chairwoman of Quartet Group, Darcy Quint, requests a meeting with them?” Darcy politely said to the reception manager. The Four Ocean Commerce Guild sent a group of representatives over and booked an entire floor in the hotel for themselves. “Please wait, Ms. Quint. I’ll inform the representatives right away.” The reception manager nodded at Darcy and Kaze before he went off. At the same time in a meeting room on the ninth floor, the representatives from the guild gathered but the atmosphere was unusually quiet. “What?! Leigh was arrested and detained?!” A man with a scrawny face shouted in disbelief. His name was Max Kang, one of the representatives sent by the guild to inspect Darcy’s compan
Samson was the first person that Max thought of. Although Max had no respect for anyone in Lilyrose, including the police chief, he could not just get any John Doe to settle the problem with the local government and the police department. He wanted to contact the mayor directly but since the mayoral position had just gone through a transition, Max did not know who the new mayor would be, so he did not know who to call. Soon, the call to Samson got through. “Max, I just learned what happened. I know the police chief, Don Braders. People call him the Iron Justice, strict and adheres to the law. It’s going to be tricky trying to free Leigh from his apprehension…” Samson made it sound difficult on the other side of the phone. Max wiped his sweat off as he flattered. “Samson, with your methods, even the strongest iron can be bent at will. Please, I need your help. As long as I can get Leigh back, you will not only get my gratitude but also the Glitter family’s.” Samson feigned
Max’s eyes shone when he saw Darcy get in his way. The lustful greed in his eyes flashed but he was able to conceal it. He frowned and said, “Ms. Quint? I thought I told you to wait.” Darcy had been waiting for a while now and seeing the impatience on Max’s face irritated her. Even though she was the one being inspected by the guild, they should have mutual respect for each other. Max made it sound like she was begging him. Darcy politely said, “Mr. Kang, we had a lunch appointment and now it’s lunchtime. Why don’t…” Max cut her off before she could finish. He grunted impatiently and said, “I don’t have the time now. Just wait here.” He wanted to bring Leigh out of detention, not waste time on lunch with Darcy. He then led his men out of the hotel, leaving Darcy behind with a sour look. Kaze coldly stared at Max and his men leaving the hotel. He said to Darcy, “Darcy, since he doesn’t want to meet us, let’s go.” “We’ll wait for a little longer…” Darcy said with a
“Leigh, are you alright?” Max went up to Leigh immediately and escorted him out of the police station. “Do I look alright to you?” Leigh lit a cigarette and took a puff before he looked at the signage above the police station. His gaze turned grim as he said coldly, “There were a few of them who took charge. I want everything about them. No Tom, Dick, and Harry can walk away alive after laying a finger on me. I’ll make the peasants know how severe the consequences are!” Leigh came from a wealthy and powerful family and he had always been the bully, not the other way around. Even in Sunrise City, less than a handful of people would dare to challenge him. Yet in Lilyrose, aside from losing the argument to a useless trash, he even got beaten up by the people inside the southern branch station. If the news got to Sunrise City, he would lose face. “Don’t worry, Leigh. I’ll take care of it as if it’s my matter. Even without your orders, I’ll find out who did it and give you
