The entire lobby was silenced. Kailan and his men were stunned. Billy’s words shocked them more than seeing a thousand young, powerful men swarming into the building. There were really a thousand of them, not one less, not one more. All of them were from Tensor Martial Arts School! Based on their looks, the two hundred gangsters were certainly no match for them. In addition, Tensor Martial Arts School now had the advantage of numbers. There were five times more students than the gangsters. Kailan felt terrible. He and his secretary did not take Kaze’s words seriously. They simply thought he was bluffing. Now, Kaze summoned a thousand capable young fighters to counter the two hundred gangsters. It was a huge insult to Kailan. Everyone looked at Kaze. His presence grew so strong that it overshadowed Kailan. “Mr. Lee, I am terribly sorry this time…” Kailan bowed and chuckled awkwardly. “Hold up. It’s not your turn to speak.” Kaze stopped him before he could fin
Kailan was deeply aggrieved listening to Kaze’s criticism. He was a proud man with a status and had never lowered himself before anyone. Yet the current situation forced him to bow and surrender. “So you are not going to let me go?” Kailan suppressed his anger and said, “What goes around, comes around. Don’t cross the line and we can still talk at the table. If you continue to oppress me, maybe one day when you are in my shoes, someone else will do the same to you.” He carefully sized up Kaze’s expression as he spoke. Phoebe mustered up her courage and said, “Kaze Lee, Mr. Skyfort is right. Don’t cross the line. Let this go. Let’s use our words, not our fists. It’s better to have friends more than enemies…” “Tell her to shut up.” Kaze did not even look at her. Billy went up straight and slapped her in the face. “Shut up! You have no right to speak here. One more word and I will slap your mouth off your face!” Phoebe dared not make another sound. Things went quie
Kaze then signaled Billy. Billy immediately brought over a chair for him to sit down. “I don't need him here in person. Seeing his face alone can make you kneel.” Kailan pulled his phone out to make a video call. “What is it?” As soon as the call got through, a square-faced person appeared on the screen. The moment Kaze saw the face, he laughed. What a small world. “Mr. Hobbs, I’m sorry. I was going to acquire Rove but someone sabotaged the deal and he even caused problems at my company.” Kailan knelt in front of the camera. “What happened to you?” The man in the call was Samson and when he saw Kailan’s swollen face and bloody lips, he was shocked. “This! This punk here!” Kailan turned his phone to Kaze and shouted, “Mr. Hobbs, it’s him!” “Kaze Lee?!” Samson’s brows rose with his eyes twitching. His expression turned grim as he called Kailan an idiot inwardly. Kailan lost to Kaze and decided to reveal him as the mastermind. If Samson could suppress K
“If Kailan Skyfort isn’t with you, then I don’t need to worry about offending you when I get him,” Kaze said with a grin. Then, he lifted his leg and stomped onto Kailan. “Aargh!” Kailan cried excruciatingly and sweat profusely due to the pain. Kaze broke his leg with just one stomp. Everyone who saw the horrifying scene, including Phoebe and Kailan’s gangsters, all of them were stunned and speechless. Some of them even looked pale. They looked at Kaze as if he was the devil. From this moment onward, they feared the young man who broke Kailan’s leg with a smile on his face. Samson, on the other side of the call, was expressionless but his pupils shrank and his eyes reflected the fear in his heart. Kailan was one of his men who had served him for many years. However, Kailan worked in the dark for Samson and the world should never find out about their working relationship. After a series of complicated procedures, even the most experienced investment manager in the
“Kaze Lee, stop talking nonsense. It’s all business to me.” Samson scoffed. “I don’t care if Rove survives this or not. As long as it is profitable, I don’t mind investing. Unfortunately, this is just a lame joke. “You should be wary about yourself instead of poking your nose into this. You are still in deep trouble.” Samson was referring to Kaze being caught in the center of criticism. Following Lil Dee’s incident, Kaze had become the target of criticism online. Kaze smiled. “Now that you mentioned it, let me tell you this. Those criticisms and comments are useless against me. Desmond Litman failed, and so will you and Lee Investment. “Samson Hobbs, if I were you, I wouldn't waste my time on useless tricks. You won’t take me down and you won’t save your hospitals.” Kaze knew exactly why Samson created all this fuss online from the start. “Then we shall see who will win in the end.” Samson scoffed and then hung up the call for good. After the call, Samson said, “Did y
“Mr. Lee, thank you for what you did. You saved Rove. But after some serious consideration, if I’m not capable of running it, then I’ll let it rot in my hands rather than sell it away.” As soon as they left Skyfort Investment, Hart held Kaze’s hand gratefully and thanked him. He also revealed his plans for the company. Kaze frowned. “Mr. Lyfe, you don’t need to feel defeated. You have been working hard to keep Rove running for all your life. Are you really just going to let it rot?” “What can I do? I’m not capable enough.” Hart chuckled helplessly and added, “Samson Hobbs might be a despicable person but he’s right. This is the trend, we can’t help it. This has been going on for many years and we are definitely not the first. “Not many companies are able to endure this hardship and make a glorious comeback.” Hart felt defeated after hearing Samson. Meaningless struggle would only attract even more aggressors like Kailan. “Samson Hobbs is talking nonsense.” Kaze scoffed.
After that, Kaze brought Hart into the office without giving Jennifer the chance to speak or deny him. “Ms. Barwise, I’m Rove’s chairman, Hart Lyfe,” Hart introduced himself. “Mr. Lyfe.” Jennifer welcomed the man with a handshake since the man was older and more experienced than her, but she quickly reverted to her upset look. “Mr. Lyfe, we are talking business here. I got news about Rove and if you are here looking for an investment, I would have to ask you to leave.” Jennifer rejected the idea without a second thought. Hart was disappointed. He chuckled bitterly and said, “I understand. It’s okay. No one dares to invest in Rove anymore.” “Mr. Lyfe, why don’t you go wait outside?” Kaze asked Hart to give him the room with Jennifer. After Hart closed the door, Kaze looked at Jennifer and asked, “I need a reason.” “I was being clear. Rove is on the brink of bankruptcy and there’s no value in them at all,” Jennifer scoffed. She continued, “Is this your so-called pot
“Mr. Lee, are you sure about that?” Hart was moved when he saw Kaze’s determined look. Kaze did not sound like he was joking. “If I want Rove to be popular, it will be popular.” Kaze tapped on Hart’s shoulder and said, “Go tell your manufacturer to prepare the stocks. I have to go back first.” Hart watched as Kaze strode off. He clenched his teeth and decided to trust Kaze this time. Since Rove was on the brink of bankruptcy, there was nothing else he could lose. Besides, Kaze offended Samson just because he wanted to help Rove. Jennifer also denied his request to invest in Rove. Therefore, after what Kaze had done, Hart did not want to let him down and he decided to take one last bet. “Darry, contact our manufacturer to increase the stocks!” Hart had made up his mind and he no longer hesitated. He called his elder son, Darry, and gave the order to increase output. However, he did not go all out with the numbers and chose a more conservative increase. When Kaz
