Chapter 114 Universal Tower

Author: Five Generals
“No, I have to go!”

Darcy did not want Kaze to take her place. She even ignored what he said about the Hilfinger family.

The Hilfingers were huge and it was impossible they would disappear overnight.

She knew that once the new Construction and Material Society was formed, the Hilfinger family would only be stronger and more influential.

Roger would surely use the ceremony to give her a hard time.

“Darcy, why are you arguing with him? If Kaze wants to take your place, let him go.”

Agnes nudged her daughter and continued, “He’s a man. If he’s capable enough, you should let him do this for you. What’s wrong with him taking your place? He’s freeloading us, and if he can’t even help you with this, why should we keep him?”

She knew her daughter was having a difficult time since she returned from Master Quint’s residence, as well as if Darcy attended the ceremony, things would only get worse.

Therefore, Agnes wanted Kaze to suffer in Darcy’s place.

“It’s decided then. Kaze,

    “The new Construction and Material Society is challenging Perfect World Group. Ray Forrester is the general manager of the company, yet Roger Hilfinger decided to challenge him openly. He might be the first in Lilyrose who openly challenged the richest man in the city. “Don’t mention Ray Forrester. The Construction and Material Society has been stealing people from the Perfect World Group for days now, yet he didn’t even react. I heard Roger Hilfinger is backed by the Lee family from the capital. No wonder the richest man in Lilyrose is afraid.” “Yeah. The Perfect World Group dissolved the Construction and Material Society but now it seems like they are going down for good.” The people who attended the ceremony were talking about the competition between the two companies. Kaze overheard them and simply chuckled. Perfect World Group going down? It was still too soon to jump to conclusions. He did not say anything and walked into the building with the invitation. Roger sp

    The four of them knew Kaze from university. Haiden’s sneers instantly attracted attention from the crowd. Everyone then looked at Kaze. “The young master of the Lee family?” “Mr. Ludgram, you know the young master of the Lee family?” Everyone looked at Haiden and company with jealousy. The quartet was recruited into the new Construction and Material Society by Roger and was placed under Kelly’s supervision. Their jobs were to liaise with the bosses of the underworld and keep an eye on them for Roger. They were living quite the life with their new status. Kelly, Haiden, and the others laughed at the comments. Haiden scoffed and said, “Young Master Lee here has been excommunicated by the Lee family a long time ago. Now, he’s just a piece of garbage who makes a living with scams and tricks. The Perfect World Group is going down soon, so he will be out of tricks soon.” Wayne introduced him to the crowd. “He’s Kaze Lee, our old friend from university. A retard who has just

    “Yeah. You useless piece of garbage. You are not even in our league!” “I think he’s just jealous of us!” Haiden and the others were arrogant as they continued to mock Kaze. Accusing James had changed their fates, and they believed they made the right choice back then. Kaze looked at the bunch of fools who had no idea what was coming. He scoffed inwardly. He did not want to waste time with them. “Haiden, Wayne, there you guys are!” Then, a woman’s voice came from further away. A beautiful woman in professional attire strutted over and turned heads while at it. “Jessica! You’re here!” Haiden and the others welcomed the woman with bright smiles. Jessica? Jessica Summer? Kaze’s eyes narrowed coldly when he heard the name. He clearly remembered Jessica as the best student in class, second only to his buddy James. Jessica always went to James for help with her studies and as time went by, they developed feelings for each other. Jessica clearly showed feelings for

    Wayne looked at Kaze with contempt. “Kaze, how about you know your place? A son-in-law of a second-tier family speaks such bold words to Jessica?” Zack added, “Jessica came back from studying abroad and is now the CEO of a big company. You two are not from the same world. What gives you the right to question her?” Jessica was like a goddess to them and they would kill for the goddess’ kiss. It was audacious for Kaze to offend Jessica and it gave them the chance to win the goddess’ heart. “Jessica, too afraid to admit what you’ve done? What are you scared of?” Kaze ignored her army of simps and stared at her coldly. He wanted to know why Jessica turned on James and who instigated her to do it. Jessica stared at him and grunted coldly. “Kaze, if you want to know that bad, I’ll tell you. James is dead anyway, what can he possibly do about it? Come back as a ghost and haunt me?” Kaze smiled and did not argue with her. He waited for her answer. Jessica said, “I reported hi

    Jessica looked at Kaze with disdain. “As for you, you were the one they excommunicated. Definitely not in the same league as Young Master Narian.” “Kaze, you were James’ best buddy. He took good care of you back then, and now that you found out about the truth, shouldn’t you seek justice for him? You really should not forget about him,” Haiden sneered at Kaze with a grin. Wayne scoffed, “Seek justice? From who? Jessica? Or the Lee family? He can’t offend either of them!” “I think he’d have a better chance next life!” Zack’s words made everyone burst into laughter. Jessica shook her head and scoffed. Kaze had it coming because he started it by questioning her reasoning for reporting on James. What could he possibly do now that he knew the truth? Other than sulking and being angry, he could not do anything to avenge his friend. That was why Jessica told him the truth because she did not take him seriously. She saw Kaze’s frosty expression smeared with grievance and they

    Everyone looked at Kaze blankly. They were not stunned by his threats because they never took him seriously, and neither did they believe he was capable of destroying the Hilfinger family. They were surprised because Kaze was still able to speak so boldly in front of them. Today was the rebuilding ceremony of the new Construction and Material Society—the day the Hilfinger family would rise to prominence and become one of the top families in Lilyrose. Yet Kaze was bold enough to speak such provocative words at the ceremony, challenging not only the Society but also the Hilfinger family. He must have a death wish. Kelly and Jessica along with Haiden and the others laughed at Kaze for being overconfident and ridiculous. Kelly teared up from all the laughing. “Hahaha, Kaze Lee! Have you lost your mind? If you are sick, go see a doctor!” “Is it because you are too poor? If you need money, I can lend you some. I don’t want to listen to nonsense anymore! I don’t want to laugh

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 121 Overconfident

    Dan was baffled. Roger Hilfinger was not even a threat. With Kaze’s prestigious status, one word from him was more than enough to destroy the entire Hilfinger family, yet Darcy seemed to worry about him a lot. Gold Tooth bitterly smiled and said, “Master Lee, Ms. Quint asked me to come here as well. She even called me and offered me a million bucks. I said I didn’t want to but she insisted.” He then gave the bank card to Kaze. “This is the bank card that Ms. Quint asked Dan to give me. Master Lee, please give it back to Ms. Quint. I’m afraid she will be mad at me if I reject it.” Kaze was speechless and moved at the same time when he took the bank card. Darcy’s savings were used on the housewarming party and she did not have a million dollars in her bank account at the moment. She must have borrowed money from Miru. He had the best wife in the world. She even asked Gold Tooth and Dan for help even though she disliked making contact with the people from the underworl

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 122 The End of The Hilfinger Family

    Everyone looked at Kaze. They assumed the useless idiot would surely hand over his wife and could not escape death. No one knew why Roger resented Kaze that much. Even if Darcy married Kaze and not Henry, it should not be the reason either. Then, Kaze provided the answer to everyone’s question. He scoffed and said, “Roger, where’s your son? Today is your big day and he’s not here?” Roger was instantly infuriated with veins bulging all over his forehead. He bellowed, “Shut up, you little piece of shit!” Kaze would not stop. He looked around and continued, “Is he still at the hospital? I heard he was castrated a few days ago. Roger, I heard you only have one son, and if he’s useless now, how are you going to continue the bloodline?” His words left the crowd astonished. How could they not know about something this serious? “Mr. Chairman, what happened to your son? Can he recover from this?” someone asked out of concern. There was no way Henry could recover from losin

    “Just tell me what you need, Arthur. You wouldn’t be calling unless you have received orders.” Philip was surprised to get a call from Arthur. Though they were acquainted, they had only communicated because of work. “We have just left Rising Sun. Don’t approve the films for now.” Arthur was blunt. “I can do that, but can I ask why?” Philip was caught in a dilemma because he had just promised Jet to release the films. Philip needed to know if the orders to delay came from a high power who could cover his ass. “Since you got a call from me, you should know that there are eyes on Jet. “You should know what you can and cannot say. Otherwise, you never know when you’re going to lose your job.” Arthur threatened. Philip was reluctant. He accepted Jet’s payment, and now he had to go back on his word. Nevertheless, Arthur was part of the Viper’s Den, and his status was rather unique. Arthur provided services to confidential individuals. These individuals were elites among t

    A balanced, profitable dynamic had been developed among the ports in Butterworth. Jet spotted his chance in the lucrative port business. He covertly took out some money to invest in a dying port. The port was situated in a more remote area. Some businesspeople favored more accessible ports. This drove shippers away from the dying port. Jet snagged the steal and improved the logistics and facilities around the area. The port was up and running again. Business at the port was decent enough. As the Frosts would run their business through the port, the local economy took off too. It was a good thing. However, Jet set his sights on several residential buildings around the area. He needed space to accommodate containers. The land was required to make business at the port more profitable. This triggered a whole new thing. Jet could spend some money to buy the residents out of their homes. However, the residents preferred to stay put in their long-time homes. No a

    “I’ll keep the bank cards for now. I’ll talk to our superiors and give you a decision. Since the man said that the cards are meant for us, they won’t be going anywhere.” Knox had no idea who Kaze was, but he knew Arthur was with the Viper’s Den. Arthur must be someone from high places. Eli soon put the little incident behind him. He got a call from Aloysius yesterday and was made aware of Jet’s plans. The films had been put on hold for far too long, and the people above Eli were anxious to get things moving. Though Eli was surprised by the review board’s visit, everything was still in his control. Eli left the matter at that without reporting the incident to the higher-ups. The flashy, red car sped along the road. Arthur kept looking back at Kaze, eager to find out about the next plan. Arthur brought Kaze out today to witness how Eli and his team operated. As it happened, Eli adopted such a shallow ploy. Arthur was not surprised, though. Eli’s methods were common.

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 3561 Reconciliation

    Eli dined offhandedly as if he had taken hold of the group. His words were layered with threat. “What? Are you trying to replace us?” Knox asked in disbelief. “I don’t have that power, but the investor does. I heard that he enjoyed dinner with your superiors. I’m sure the project will get the green light in no time. “Even if you didn’t approach me today, my team and I would have invited you out for a get-together.” Eli knew when to back down, easing the tension in the air. It was another type of reconciliation. Eli needed to go through the review board to get the rights to air the films. The carrot-and-stick approach was the best way forward. Kaze was surprised by the sophistication of Eli’s tactics. Still, he believed he had come to the right place. Sure enough, Jet would stop at nothing to get what he wanted. Surely, he was bound to leave loose ends. Nevertheless, he probably did not care. Arthur cocked his head back to look at Kaze. Kaze grinned, unbothered

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 3560 Bring Something Back

    The purpose of the visit was to inform Rising Sun that the films did not make the cut. Since Rising Sun would not make the necessary amendments, the project would come to a halt. “Please, don’t. Since we are all here, we should talk it out.” It took Eli quite some effort to get the group to the hotel. Eli had plans to please the crowd, so he could not let them leave just yet. This went beyond getting the green light for the films. Eli needed to make the group happy. “There is nothing more to talk about. We can’t proceed unless you make the changes.” There was no way around it. Since Rising Sun refused to make the right amendments, and Knox had orders about putting a hold on Rising Sun’s films, that was one less problem for Knox to deal with. Eli could not let the group walk out on him. Hence, he quickly sent people in. Several thinly clad women entered, each holding a small bag. Despite the weightlessness, the bag appeared to be carrying something of substance. “You

    For that reason, Rising Sun’s film productions were not cleared to be aired. “I told you the reason. The investor supplied us with the scripts, and we were told to base our productions on the scripts. Our hands are tied.”Eli would have made the amendments if he could. He knew where the problem lay. However, the company had to take the investor’s perspective into consideration. In the end, the films were yet to be approved for release. “I guess you won’t get the permission to air them then.” Knox was surprised that Rising Sun would not budge on the matter. Nevertheless, Knox and his team were not there to give the all-clear or talk some sense into Rising Sun. Knox and his team could care less about what Eli had to say. “We’re serious about getting the approval. “I’m sorry that we aren’t a better host for your visit today. Why don’t we move to the nearby hotel for a talk?” With the review board making an appearance, Eli knew there was still hope. If Eli did not grab

    Arthur chuckled, his smile carrying a touch of sleaziness. “Oh, I see.” A realization dawned on Kaze. “Are you with quality control?” Several individuals in dark blue suits approached. The men and women carried files and documents. Kaze nodded without a word. “We are just here to announce the results. We shouldn’t be long.” Arthur came forward to engage with them. The group was likely given the heads-up as they had the right number of people. They swaggered into Rising Sun’s building. The general manager straightened up his tie in a fluster and walked out. None of the film productions made the cut yet, and the delay was costing the company money by the day. At this rate, the project would go down under. Eli, the general manager, rushed to the entrance upon learning the news. The review team was there to do one final check. The films would get the green light if the board found that everything was up to par. The head office would stop putting pressure on

    Given Kaze’s status, Alfonso knew better than to have him waiting under the hot sun. Of course, he would send his people to be on standby for Kaze’s arrival. Peter only came to the rescue when Kaze was pestered by some street gang. Alfonso’s omission of Kaze’s identity led to this hiccup. Kaze did not care one bit about the incident. Heck, he did not even bring it up. Arthur straightened his back nervously, becoming even more cautious behind the wheel. “You knew, but why didn’t you say anything, Mr. Lee? You didn’t even tell on us.” Arthur could not understand why. However, he had more respect for the man. “I didn’t see a point. You’ll learn what happens when you displease me, so I won’t bother telling you now.” Kaze was mild-mannered as ever. He spoke softly without a hint of anger. All the more Arthur revered him. “Mr. Lee, we didn’t do our jobs right. We didn’t know who you were.“But my duty is to protect you in the dark. “We saw you getting out of the train

    “Rising Sun is a media company. Several of their films are about to be released. They are trying to get them approved to air due to some censorship issues.” Arthur took out a document. “Are there any issues with the films? Why aren’t they approved yet?” Kaze asked curiously. Kaze had no idea. “There are some issues. They aren’t fit to be aired. “Typically, there aren’t a lot of restrictions for film productions so long as the themes aren’t sensitive topics. “But these films featured altered history. The company has been asked multiple times to make revisions, but the films still don’t make the cut.” The Viper’s Den’s members were not privy to the information. The Frosts were insignificant. Kaze was after the Frosts. Otherwise, the Viper’s Den would not waste its resources on a mere film production company. Jet’s investment of nearly ten million bucks in Rising Sun caught the Viper’s Den’s attention. The delayed approval of the films would be catastrophic to the in
