Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1679 No Intention to Slander
While Mandy and the others were waiting, Kaze arrived at the city council in his car. “Mr. Lee.” When Lou and Caleb saw Kaze walk into his office, the two of them went up to him immediately since they were briefed beforehand. Kaze gestured at them and asked, “Are all the representatives here yet?” “Yes, sir. They are all here.” Caleb explained, “The dean of South River University’s School of Arts, Connor Lewis, is here as well. Mr. Lee, yesterday you mentioned you wanted to meet him first, right?” “Oh, yeah. Bring him in.” Kaze nodded. Soon, a middle-aged man with glasses and hardly any hair on his head was brought into the office by a city council staff member. There were three people in the spacious office. Connor recognized Caleb and Lou, who were standing beside the table, which made the person behind the desk the mayor. He walked over to the desk and said with a smile, "Mr. Mayor, I have finally had the chance to meet you. Your abilities precede your age!"
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1680 You?!
Unfortunately, Connor had a bad history with Kaze. In other words, his future was hanging on a thread and Kaze had the scissors to cut it. As his words subsided, sudden realization struck Kaze. Kaze looked at Connor and asked, “Oh right, Mr. Lewis, I just remembered about the phone call yesterday. You said I am a useless businessman so you didn’t take my words seriously. Is this how you show your respect?” Thump! Connor dropped on his butt, looking devastated. Kaze ignored Connor and asked the staff member, “Is Mandy Yipz from South River University here? Let’s save some time and bring her in as well.” “Yes, sir.” The moment Connor heard Mandy’s name, he realized that everything happened because of her. He started shaking. “Mr. Lee, I didn’t mean it! It was all Mandy’s fault! She made you mad so I fired her, but someone interfered…” He got up on his feet and started bowing at Kaze, apologizing for what he did. Kaze leaned back in his seat and looked at the nervous
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1681 Do I Deserve It Now?
“Mr. Lewis, do I deserve it?” Kaze asked casually. Connor was struck with shock and pain. He covered his face and said timidly, “Y-Yes!” Mandy was stunned by the reply and the scene. Kaze slapped Connor in the face! The strangest thing was that Connor took the slap without even rebuking. What happened? Slap! Kaze slapped him again. “You took my money and failed to deliver!” Slap! “It’s my duty to donate as a wealthy person?” Slap! Kaze swung his hand left and right, slapping Connor repeatedly on both his flabby cheeks. Connor’s head was rocking like a ship sailing through rough waves. Despite his anger overflowing to the point of erupting, he did his best to contain his emotions. He dared not dodge the slaps or fight back. Getting slapped in the face was better than ending up in jail. Mandy was stunned. She stared blankly at the scene as disbelief flooded her mind. Why would Connor allow Kaze to slap him? How did Kaze do it? She could not wrap her
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1682 Fight Between Scoundrels
Kaze’s expression turned gloomy. “I want you to deal with it!” Connor shuddered and stuttered, “S-Sure…” A quick thought later, he looked at Kaze and said, “First, we take down the announcement on the official website of the university and reinstate Rose Oceanid’s admission status. The School of Arts will also issue a public apology. “Second, since this incident started with Mandy abusing her position for her personal gains, I suggest we report her wrongdoing to the authorities and fire her. “Third, we will return the hundred million to you, Mr. Lee.” Connor spoke with utmost respect and flatter. His mind was still clear and was able to come up with the optimal solution. Reinstating Rose’s admission and firing Mandy were necessary. “Sounds good.” Kaze was satisfied with the solution Connor provided and nodded. As for Mandy, even though the woman was wicked, other than firing her and ruining her reputation, there were no other effective ways to punish her. Her face
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1683 Reputation Tarnished
After Connor scolded Mandy, he turned to Kaze with an apologetic look. “Mr. Lee, I’ll tell the faculty to call the authorities now and expose this wicked woman of her true colors!” “Nevermind. I’ll do it myself.” Kaze emotionlessly pulled his phone out and made a call. “Principal Siber? It’s me, Kaze Lee.” To ensure Mandy’s despair, Kaze turned on the speaker mode. “Yes, Mr. Lee, is there anything I can do for you?” Robb’s respectful voice came from the phone. From that moment onward, Mandy’s heart sank to the bottom of the abyss. Even the principal of the university showed so much respect to Kaze. Not even Cosmo could do that. Thump! Mandy fell on her butt, spacing out. A moment later, she regained her consciousness and crawled over to Kaze. “Kaze Lee, please! Don’t do this, let me go! I was wrong, I am sorry for what I did! I’ll take back what I said! I’ll wash your feet, I’ll do anything…” She cried a river as she pleaded for mercy. She finally lowered
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1684 Kaze Is Mayor, Mayor Is Kaze
“Kaze, what happened?” When Kaze came home, the whole family looked at him, hoping for answers to their burning questions. Even Darcy was curious. Yesterday, she lowered herself to beg Mandy for a chance and even tried to arrange a meeting for her with the new mayor. Kaze honestly said, “I called the governor, which led me to the principal of South River University. I told him about that woman’s wrongdoings and she got fired.” Everyone was surprised that it happened so easily and swiftly. Even Nelson started to look at Kaze differently. Kaze had the number of the governor of the state? He could even ask for favors from the governor? Darcy accepted the explanation easily. She said, “Kaze, you shouldn’t always trouble the governor. You are exhausting the favors with the governor.” “Got it.” Kaze smiled and nodded. He was happy that Darcy was always this considerate. “Kaze, thank you!” Rose hopped over like a happy bunny and curled her arms around Kaze’s. The smi
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1685 All of You Think That I Am Bluffing?
Astonished, Cosmo widened his eyes and muttered, “No way, that useless piece of shit finally got in power?” The news was impactful. Kaze became the mayor of Lilyrose. How? What made him mayor? However, in less than a minute, Cosmo successfully digested the news because it might be true. The new mayor never showed himself in public. The rumor of the new mayor coming from a wealthy and powerful family was never verified. Both rumors seemed to fit Kaze’s description. Mandy said, “Mr. Cosmo, I think you shouldn’t go after Kaze Lee. He’s able to call favors from the governor and the principal of South River University. You can’t win…” Slap! Cosmo stopped Mandy from finishing her sentence with a slap on the face. “You’re comparing me with that useless shit? He’s just a mayor of Lilyrose. So what if he can call favors from Loid Farland? He won’t be governor forever, but the Lees are the forever ruler of the South River State!” Similar to his cousin Narian, Cosmo was al
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1686 Kill Without Conscience
Thump! As Cosmo's voice faded, the seven men knelt in a single line and looked at him in fear. “W-We’re sorry! We didn’t know you were really from the Lee family. Young Master Cosmo, please forgive us…” the men stuttered and begged. They were mortified. Cosmo’s expression turned cold. “Forgive you? Sure, if you work for me. I want you to deal with Kaze Lee and his wife. I’ll spare your life if you do it.” “Y-Young Master Cosmo, Kaze Lee has a strong supporter in the underworld, we dared not go after him…” said one of the men with a pale look. Two other men shook their heads in agreement. Even though they received orders from Kaze back in the detention center to teach Cosmo a lesson, they never knew him personally and had only heard of his name. They had always been aware of Kaze’s influence in the underworld. If Kaze was able to command them to teach Cosmo a lesson in the detention center, it already stated how powerful he was. They were nothing but common thugs, and th

Aiden broke out in a cold sweat when he remembered losing Crown Tower at the auction. He said solemnly, “I’m sorry, Ms. Hara. The fault lies in me.”“I love a strong and powerful man who can handle me, Mr. Krad. I don’t need a rash man who can’t think straight.” Reiko grabbed a towel and wiped every inch of Aiden’s body. Her fingers coasted along Aiden’s Adam’s apple, and she said indifferently, “You better ask us before you make the next move. Otherwise, you might lose the chance to work with us again.” Aiden gritted his teeth and said nothing. Dropping the attitude, Aiden was as meek as a kitten in front of Reiko.He was usually the one getting handsy with Reiko. By the time Reiko withdrew her arm, Aiden’s expression had hardened. He read between the lines. Reiko talked about dropping him, not the Krads. In other words, Reiko could go to another member of the Krads to collaborate. Aiden’s competition was within his family. He aimed to be the top of his family.
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3205 Fall Short
Aiden’s words trailed off. The Ryokanians were never out to get Kaze. They were trying to bring Kent down through Kaze. The only conflict between Kaze and the Ryokanians was business rivalry, and there was no reason to escalate negotiable deals to a personal level. Kent was a different story. He was the mayor of Riverbank. He passed the bills for policies. One policy could decide the fate of a business. Kent’s policies could eliminate the Ryokanian presence in Riverbank. Kent must die. The Ryokanians could get Kaze out of the picture. If necessary, they could call it a truce with him too. That was what the Ryokanians thought. There was a fundamental difference between the Ryokanians’ attitude toward Kaze and Kent. The only thing on Aiden’s mind was to get rid of Kaze. Aiden simply took hits at Kent because the latter was Kaze’s supporter. He and the Ryokanians were after different things. Due to the lack of transparency in their communication, the plan had gon
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3204 Reiko’s Hostility
Aiden chuckled in delight and grabbed Reiko’s hand to pull her close. He sniffed her hand and said with a manic laugh, “Don’t worry, Ms. Hara. I will get you Crown Tower before killing him. “Hahaha! He’s just a loser. What does he have to compete with me?” Aiden gripped Reiko’s hand and threw his head back to guffaw. “Splash!” Reiko raised her hand and poured her drink on Aiden. Aiden choked on the drink, interrupting his laughter.“Cough, cough.” It took Aiden a while to get over it. He shot an angry look at Reiko and shouted, “Have you lost it, Reiko?” Aiden was surprised to see Reiko looking rather aloof. Reiko had always clung to him, catering to all his needs since they met. She made him feel like a king. Yet now, Reiko caught him off guard by turning on him. Aiden had no idea what was going on. “You have some explaining to do, bitch,” Aiden grabbed a towel to wipe his face while uttering furiously. Unfazed by Aiden’s temper, Reiko said with a blank face,
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3203 Aiden’s Delight
“Despite your training, you were defenseless at the hands of Kaze. It appears the disowned member of the Lees is more powerful than we thought.” A woman’s voice, bearing a heavy Ryokanian accent, boomed. Reiko, dressed in a black and gold dress, brewed tea on her knees. Her delicate hands moved with grace and allure. There was a temptation to hold her hands forever. Aiden’s gaze turned cold. Shifting his eyes from Darcy and Snow, Aiden looked at Kaze’s photo in the center of the board. Embracing his urge to kill, Aiden threw his sword. “Swoosh!” The sword sank into Kaze’s face, piercing through the board. Aiden took a seat across from Reiko and smiled ruthlessly at her. “Well, he can’t fight weapons with bare hands. I can assure you that Kaze will not get away this time. “I want him to give up Crown Tower. Once I squeeze every little thing out of him, he can die.” “Oh?” Reiko poured a drink and passed it to Aiden. She said with a smile, “We can do our best, bu
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3202 Come What May
“Don’t feel discouraged. Just pursue in the direction I’ve told you. I can guarantee that you’ll be fine,” Kaze said while patting Morgan’s shoulder. Wallace could not possibly restrain Morgan, the state police chief, from doing his job. Surely, Morgan had people he could trust. Kaze gave Morgan the go-ahead to investigate and to direct any needs to Snow. Despite the presence of the police force and Wallace’s eyes on site, Kaze had no qualms about letting his intentions known. It was baffling that Kaze acted like he was Morgan’s superior. The police looked at Kaze in reverence. Kaze challenged the deputy governor’s authority and talked down to the state police chief in public. There was something mysterious about Kaze. Now, they knew that the case was more than just a murder. It was part of a larger power struggle. They were just insignificant in the grand scheme of things. The state police force dropped the arrogance while questioning Kaze. They would only be c
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3201 Overstep
The Frosts were prominent in the South River State. Wallace was a man of power and wealth. Plus, he was an established deputy governor. He did not have to give a damn about anybody else. He could care less about Kaze. No one could change Wallace’s mind, not even if Kent were there. With that in mind, Wallace walked past Morgan and said curtly to the police force, “I expect you to be on this case.“You will report to me on every little progress. “I’m not asking for much. I expect you to respect the law, deliver justice, protect the good…” Wallace glanced at Kaze and stressed. “And punish the bad.” He carried himself with aggression and authority. Though nothing was said outright, Wallace basically stripped Morgan’s power and disregarded his opinion. Morgan grimaced hard. There was clearly no trust between them, and Wallace believed Morgan played favorites. Besides, Wallace ordered Morgan’s subordinates around, clearly bypassing his authority. Wallace’s behavior
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3200 All Useless
Wallace looked fierce and sounded firm. A live-in husband who got into his current position through nepotism, despite having made a name for himself and getting the support of the mayor of Riverbank, he was still involved in a murder and showed no remorse for what happened. Instead, he tried to go around the system to free himself. Wallace looked down on people like Kaze from the bottom of his heart. Kaze suddenly laughed after hearing the man, which fueled his agitation. He bellowed, “What are you laughing at?” “I am laughing at you for being a busybody, Deputy Governor Frost.” Under Wallace’s fierce gaze, Kaze chuckled and said, “Deputy Governor Frost, I don’t care what you think of me, but I have two things to say. “First, I am not a suspect and I have nothing to do with this case. Second, my relationship with Snow is also none of your business.” “Hey! Watch your mouth!” “Mind your choice of words, Kaze Lee!” “What gave you the right to talk to the deputy gover
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3199 Another Deputy Governor
Kaze looked at the entrance. The man was probably in his 50s, tall and upright, striding and exuding a sense of commanding presence. His expression looked stern, his eyes fierce, expressing his authority and superiority. Morgan was slightly surprised before he went over to the man. He bowed and said respectfully, “Mr. Frost! You’re here?” Upon hearing Morgan call the man, Kaze knew the man’s identity. Wallace Frost, like Mitchell, was one of the two deputy governors. Unlike Neegan and Michell, who were not locals and were simply transferred to their positions, Wallace had been serving South River State for many years and earned himself a high reputation. More importantly, as his name suggested, he was from the Frost family. However, his family was from a distant branch and had rooted themselves in Riverbank rather than Butterworth, though he was still in contact with the main family in Butterworth. In other words, if Snow was around, she would have to call the man unc
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3198 Take Him as a Dog
Donovan bit his lips, his expression clearly showed his internal struggles. Kaze did not waste time and referred to Morgan. “Chief Bale, based on the recording, I think it’s enough to relieve them of their duties.” “Of course. The wrong interrogation method is against our rules. They would not only be relieved of their duties but also be investigated. They had nothing against you but they took the risk to cross the line. I believe they must have received bribes from whoever is behind them. “Once the investigation is complete, it will be a criminal offense.” Thump! After the last word came out of Morgan’s lips, Donovan fell on his knees immediately. He spoke with a righteous voice earlier, accusing Kaze of committing an atrocious crime. Now, he became the one who would be punished and charged. “Mr. Lee, it’s Aiden! Aiden Krad! He gave us ten million and told us to make you call the mayor. He wanted to use his power to get you out of here…” Donovan then spilled everything
