“Let’s not get ahead of ourselves.” Darcy uttered in contemplation, “Didn’t you notice Kaze admitting to all the slander Mandy made on the video? Do you think he’s that foolish?“The video was edited, right, Kaze?” Darcy refused to believe that her husband would be so foolish to admit something he did not do just for the heck of it. Kaze nodded with relief. “That’s right.” “Is there bad blood between you and Mandy?” Darcy asked. She had been curious. Kaze answered, “She made a biased article about Lil Dee, and when the public turned against him, she was fired. She hates me for it, but I didn’t even know her before the observation meeting.” For real? If that were the case, Mandy would be acting unreasonably. The family realized that they were simply unlucky. Agatha said in tears, “Even if this has nothing to do with Kaze, what are we going to do about this? Does Rose have to miss out on university?” Nelson said with a scowl, “She posted the video on the university’s
“It’s just a video, Mandy. Why does it make you so happy? “Does it change the way I live or make money?” Faced with Mandy’s taunting, Kaze responded indifferently. “Hahaha. Don’t act tough, Kaze.” Mandy scoffed. “You have no reputation to begin with, so nothing can get you down.“But your wife’s cousin doesn’t have a life anymore because of you.“South River University will never accept her, and I doubt other good schools would take her in.“I think she should spend some money to get into community college. Well, you have the money to pay for her education anyway. “Maybe I can recommend some community colleges, and you can donate a couple hundred million dollars to them too. I’ll talk to them in advance, so you won’t spend your money for nothing. Hahaha.” Mandy burst out laughing. Kaze was an idiot to get her fired by donating 100 million dollars to South River University. One phone call from Cosmo was all it took to ruin his plans. Mandy bet Kaze was dumbstruck.
These powerful entities could sway the direction of schools into Lilyrose, which gave them more bargaining power in the negotiations. Following their persuasions, the prestigious schools sent out their representatives. The representatives rushed to Lilyrose overnight. Kaze was glad to see the enthusiasm. The development of Lilyrose New City needed the influx of capital. The city council did not have the means and resources to afford the entire project. Kaze was fine with businesses outside the city to make profits so long as they played by the city’s rules. “The forum is set up at the city council hall, Mr. Lee.” Caleb reported to Kaze at the office. Kaze flipped through the file on every school. Apart from South River University, many representatives from other prestigious universities were there too. Some of the best high schools in Sunrise City sent agents to attend the forum. They came prepared too, submitting a proposal draft for the building of their campus
Hmph. Mandy believed Kaze got what he deserved for going against her. Feeling smug, Mandy chuckled. ‘Kaze, it’s not over between us. ‘This is just the beginning. ‘I’ll show the consequences of upsetting a powerful woman.’The other representatives looked over curiously as Mandy laughed to herself. Her laughter, though off-putting, could not detract from her undeniable beauty.Several male representatives with a keen interest in her kept staring and asked, “What’s funny? Care to share?” Snapping out of her thoughts, Mandy tucked wisps of her hair behind her ear and replied, “Something nice just happened.“I met a very rude and despicable family member of the candidate I was supposed to observe. “During the interaction, I noticed the bad behavior in the candidate’s family and defied her admission. “I just received word that the candidate’s family is pulling strings and bribing our staff to get into South River University.“But my colleagues rejected them. “South R
Lou spoke harshly with a solemn look. The words came from Kaze. Kaze knew the representatives were young, talented, and proud. Instead of having issues later during the forum, it was better to give them a heads-up in advance. Those who could not accept the rules could leave. Nevertheless, the representatives had braced themselves for what was to come. The mayor came up with the Lilyrose New City project the moment he took office. Despite his young age, the mayor was a formidable character. “Don’t worry, Deputy Mayor Moor. We know the rules.” The representatives nodded compliantly. “Deputy Mayor Moor, can you share with us a little bit about the mayor? I don’t want to get on his nerves without knowing,” Mandy approached and said sweetly. “Yeah, please share with us, Deputy Mayor Moor. I don’t want to say the wrong thing and upset the mayor.” The others echoed the same sentiment. Not finding the request unreasonable, Lou replied, “The mayor is easy to talk to. He
“I heard Kaze is still the lapdog for the mayor. I’ll go after the mayor directly and I will make him turn on that prick! I wonder how Kaze would react then?” Mandy was excited. She finally got a chance to finally get revenge on Kaze. No matter what, she vowed to seize the opportunity. She was quite confident in her own charms. “That’s all I want to say. Let’s go inside,” Lou said as he tapped his hand. He then led his men inside. Mandy and the others followed him inside. She lifted her chest, and tried her best to look more energetic. However, a few steps later, Lou stopped. He pulled his phone out for a glance and then turned around to them. “Deputy Mayor Moor, what’s wrong?” The others were baffled. Lou frowned and asked, “Who’s Mandy Yipz from South River University?” Everyone immediately turned their attention to Mandy. “I am, Mr. Deputy Mayor. What’s the matter?” Mandy stepped up and asked with anticipation. Could it be that the mayor had seen her picture
Lou’s expression turned grim when he heard Mandy scold Kaze in front of him. “Let go of me!” he bellowed. He shook Mandy’s hands away and then summoned the security guards. “Take this woman out! She’s interfering with our business here!” “Yes, sir!” The security guards swarmed Mandy immediately. No matter how she struggled or screamed, she was thrown out of the city council in the end. All the other representatives saw what happened. They sighed and shook their heads. They were deceived by Mandy’s elegance and noble look earlier. It was until now they finally saw Mandy’s true face, an unreasonable, inelegant woman who had no dignity. …“Kaze Lee! It must be him!” Looking miserable, Mandy shouted angrily outside the city council. She had never been so miserable before, not even when she was fired by Sunrise News. She was thrown out in front of all the other representatives. This could be the biggest stain in her life and career. Other than Kaze fanning the fla
“Dad, Mom, Kaze did his best. He donated a hundred million because of me, it’s not his fault. It’s that woman’s fault!” Rose was still saddened by her denied application but she could not stand her parents scolding Kaze. She was deeply moved by what Kaze did for her. A hundred million donation just because of her! It was not a small amount of money! Kaze spent that much money because of her and even though it did not work, Rose’s heart was still warmed. The seniors in the house ceased their scoldings after Rose spoke up. Kaze did a lot for Rose, so there was no reason for the seniors to scold him anymore. “Darcy, you must think of a way to solve this. How’s your call with the university?” The entire family put their hopes in Darcy again. “I’m getting nowhere.” Darcy shook her head and said, “After Kaze donated a hundred million, Mandy was fired but a professor named Federick Yale spoke up and stopped her from being fired. This professor somehow has a history with ou
