Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1838 Sanwell Finances
For the Glowmoss government, 200 million Uleania dollars was not much. The point was that the five hundred-odd individuals successfully snuck into Arcadia through the operation of several major Glowmoss organizations. The loss would be immeasurable if the root cause was not addressed. Besides, the Glowmoss government was insulted with the matter blowing up in their faces; they were furious, to say the least. The Powells, responsible for the incident, were bound to face the wrath of the government and the people. The Glowmoss government could possibly play the blame game and make a scapegoat out of the Powells. With that in mind, Ian shuddered. “You’re right, Uncle Ivan. This concerns the survival of the family. We need to save ourselves.” Ian bowed before Ivan. “I hope to seek your guidance.” After much contemplation, Ivan said, “First, we need to disassociate ourselves from Gunter and pin the whole thing on him. He started it anyway, so he should take responsibilit
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1839 Mayoral Candidates
Ivan flew to Cousbank, an island nation, to meet with the leader of Sanwell Finances. Sanwell Finances got down to business right away. The corporation agreed to swap businesses with the Powells. … It was Kaze’s first visit to the mayor’s office since he stepped down. Nevertheless, he was not there for business. He came to collect his personal items from the office. Kaze even stored the Nether Viper Sword from the Viper Queen. Despite being merely a replica, the sword served as the badge of office for the West State branch leader of the Viper’s Den. Trouble would stir if the sword fell into the wrong hands. “Have you finalized the mayoral candidates?” Kaze asked Caleb and Lou who were moving boxes behind Kaze. Caleb replied, “Due to the city upgrade, the running for the next new mayor has become intense. “We can expect to see many powerhouses. Heck, the deputy mayors from cities in South River State and Butterworth put their names in too.” Due to the military
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1840 Miru Goes Blind-Dating Again
Caleb said, “Because of the incident with the Glowmoss Powells, Lee Investment pulls out of Lilyrose and wants to take over their businesses. “Samson came to the mayor’s office to ask if the local council wants to take over the few private hospitals. “I think Samson is trying to show you where his loyalty lies.” Kaze paused and smiled amusedly. “Oh, are the Lees scared now?” Since Cosmo lost his manhood, Kaze had no doubt that George, Cosmo’s father, would lose it. Isaac assigned seasoned internal security officers to protect Darcy, Winnie, and the others. Gunter’s death spooked the Lees, banishing their thoughts about revenge. That was not the only thing. Lee Investment immediately pulled out of Lilyrose. Multiple entities had gathered in Lilyrose, hoping to get a share of profits in the Lilyrose New City project. Yet, the Lees chose to do the exact opposite. It appeared the Lees had withdrawn from the competition and given up on securing a share. “Let the intere
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1841 Lordship
In high society, sons from established and prominent families were typically addressed formally. However, lordship was reserved for the truly powerful house, carrying the weight of a significant legacy to be inherited. While there were no written rules in the social hierarchy concerning lordship, those who valued tradition and lineage tended to adopt these distinctions. Even within the elite families, not everybody was considered for lordship. Only those groomed from a young age as potential leaders, destined to take over the family’s vast holdings, were positioned for this title.These very people were destined for a life at the top. They were born with a silver spoon. Privilege was written in their stars. “Did that scare you?” Miru pouted at Kaze’s expression. “Well, I don’t blame you. Lordship is beyond any commoner’s reach. “Heck, a life of wealth is unattainable for many anyway. “One out of thousands might be talented and lucky enough to be successful.“Lords
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1842 My Aunt Wants to See You
“That woman is capable. She managed to pull the family through uncertainty years ago. “Albert was able to become the chief commander of South River Strategic Department because of her. “The family eats out of her hand. “Since she wants to marry me off, apparently for my own good, the other family members don’t see why they would object to it.” It appeared that Miru’s stepmother had her ways. Despite being the woman Miru’s father married after his divorce, she managed to secure power in the family. The Hidens were a prominent family. Yet, the woman was able to seize control. “But why did you call me here? “I doubt I’m a good listener,” Kaze said, shrugging. Kaze did not mind stepping in to help Miru if she did not want to walk down the marriage path. Miru was Darcy’s best friend after all. No one could make Miru do anything on his watch. Miru glanced at him and said, “Someone wants to meet you.” “Me? Who?” Kaze was taken aback. Miru replied, “My aunt. She’s
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1843 Take it as an Insult
“That’s right.” Kaze nodded with a smile. “That’s what friends do. I was just being a friend.” “What did you say? Being a friend?” Something Kaze said triggered Fanny off as she stared Kaze down. “The nerve of you. “Don’t you know you made Miru a joke? “Aren’t you the moocher? “You are giving my family a bad name by behaving like Miru’s boyfriend.” Fanny then shot an angry look at Miru, reproaching her for her poor choice. The smile on Kaze’s face disappeared. He realized that Miru probably got her sharp tongue from her aunt. Fanny put a label on him right away. Kaze was only courteous because Fanny was Miru’s aunt. Since Fanny did not play nice, Kaze could drop the act. Kaze said in a flat tone, “So I’m giving the Harrowdale Hidens a bad name by acting as Miru’s boyfriend? “So what do you call a woman who forces her daughter to marry for the sake of business?” Fanny furrowed her brows and said furiously, “How dare you insult my family, boy? Who do you t
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1844 The Westeros Fowlers
Fanny glanced at Kaze and said curtly, “Your mom sent me here to teach Kaze a lesson. We need to make our stance known to the public.” Kaze frowned, his eyes flickering with a cold glint. Teach him a lesson? He was no pushover. Miru grimaced and replied, “Niko’s incident has nothing to do with my date, Aunt Fanny. “It happened after the date. He started it by throwing his weight around. That was when Kaze stepped in to take him down a peg.“I won’t stand by the woman attacking an innocent man in the name of the family’s reputation.” Miru stood firm on that ground. She knew that her stepmother, Isabelle Hiden, would not hesitate to hurt Kaze to save the family’s name. Miru had firsthand experience of Isabelle’s wickedness. Kaze would suffer miserably. Fanny put on a sour look and said, “Either way, Isabelle is your mother, Miru. You should give her some respect and not make the family a laughingstock.” Miru scowled without a word. Fanny knew she was stubborn.
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 1845 A Lordship’s Influence
Fanny spoke in a light-hearted manner about Miru taking a pick from the list of 500 best companies and foundations. Even wealthy families like the Lees and Glitters would not say such a thing. Fanny was talking about Westeros. Westeros was the capital of the West State and where the headquarters of Viper’s Den was located. Kaze finally learned about the Fowlers in Westeros. The Fowlers earned the title of lordship. Surely, their influence extended beyond Westeros. The Fowlers were also a powerhouse in South River State, Butterworth, and other states. The privilege and power that came from an elite family were not just for show. However, Miru furrowed her brows. “I gave you my word that I would go on a date with Jerome.“But I didn’t say that I would marry him for sure. “Besides, I’m not the slightest interested in the things the Fowlers offered. “What’s wrong with my connections to the underworld? “As far as I know, the Fowlers started off with running a secret

Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3282 Weak
“Ugh!” The searing pain on Draig’s back felt like a bolt of lightning coursing through his body. It felt as if bones had shattered. He fell onto the ground with a heavy thud. Huh? The crowd was astonished. No one expected Juan to hit Draig. To their surprise, as the son of the grandmaster of Uleania, Draig could not even last one hit from Juan. He collapsed to the ground and could not get up. A single thought appeared in everyone’s mind while looking at him—weak! He was ridiculously weak, to the point that he could not even take one hit! “W-What? How did this happen?” Cyan looked at Draig on the ground with widened eyes filled with disbelief. She felt like her beliefs were crumbling. A moment ago, Draig bragged that he could take responsibility for everything, yet he was struck down by Juan with just one hit. He did not even stand a chance! Reality made his words sound like a joke. “Master Juan, what is the meaning of this?” Draig recovered his composure and
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3281 Disgrace to the Family
Juan was displeased by Draig’s pretentious manner. All his disciples clenched their fists and teeth, infuriated by Draig’s arrogant words, hoping that they could teach him a lesson. Draig might be physically powerful but they, too, were trained martial artists and they had the advantage of numbers. They were not afraid of him. One word from their master and they would all jump on Draig to rip him apart. Looking at how “responsible” Draig was, stepping up to deal with the matter, Cyan somehow felt bad for him. She looked at Kaze once more, who wore a nonchalant look as if he was not part of the situation. Her eyes at him filled with anger and contempt. She stepped up and humbly said, “Master Juan, I saw what happened. I think I should speak up for Draig. “It’s not Draig, it’s Kaze. The security guards and your disciples, it was all Kaze! Draig claimed that he did it because he was trying to protect me and Snow, but I believe Master Juan is a fair and just person. You shoul
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3280 Draig the Pretentious
“Master, that guy is being completely disrespectful of you…” The monks and the others knelt before Juan, crying and complaining about what Kaze had done to them. Seeing his disciples kneel in front of the public, speaking in an embarrassing way, Juan’s expression turned ashen. He wished he could slap them off the face of the earth to save himself from the humiliation. However, his reaction looked like anger to the others instead of embarrassment. His reaction made the atmosphere even more stiff and tense. No one dared to interrupt or make a noise, afraid of suffering the master’s wrath. Cyan carefully looked at Draig, hoping that he could step up and mitigate the problem. Otherwise, once Juan flew into a rage, punishing Kaze alone might not solve the problem. After all, the monks made it clear that Cyan and the others were with Kaze, so there was no way they could escape anymore. Draig looked at Kaze who remained calm and confident and Snow who was expressionless. He
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3279 Master Juan is Here
“Master Juan is here!” Right after Cyan’s words subsided, Juan and his group of followers finally arrived. Juan wore a white religious attire. Albeit a straight face, he looked like a deity from heaven. Kaze remained calm and steady on the spot, saying nothing. He wanted to see how Juan would handle the situation and provide a satisfying explanation. Likewise, Draig remained silent. It was not that he was also waiting for an explanation from Juan—he was merely waiting for Juan to speak to him first so that he could maintain his appearance. Not only the two of them, but the others remained silent as well. In fact, most of them lowered their voices, some dared not even take heavy breaths, as they waited for Juan to handle the matter. Juan must have been aware of what happened earlier. Kaze was practically insulting Emerald Bull Palace. Even with Juan at the scene, the security guards, almost thirty of them, were still on their knees. The bigger the commotion, the more
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3278 A Piece of Advice
Draig looked at Kaze scornfully, like he was an idiot out of place. “Kaze Lee, you are really a fool. You’ve gotten so used to bragging your way out of things. Master Juan had stepped in to deal with the Ryokanians and you assumed he was here to help you, trying to be your support? “The other funny thing is, you think that allows you to cause a scene here in Emerald Bull Palace? Where’s your brain? What makes you think you have the right?” He continued to mock Kaze, airing his grievances while at it. He even raised his voice because Albert was not around. “Is that so?” Kaze looked at Draig, who had returned to his boastful and arrogant self. He slightly shook his head and scoffed. Draig pursed his lips and said, “Am I wrong, Kaze? For Snow’s sake, I’ll give you one last piece of advice. “You should know your place and limits. Had I not held back the Ryokanians and Master Juan stepped in to deal with them, what would have happened to Snow? Have you thought about that? “A
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3277 All Shall Pay
They had no idea how Juan got the news so quickly and was able to gather a group of followers to the scene. Usually, such trivial matters would not even reach Juan at all as he was a busy and elusive man. Even within the Emerald Bull Palace, he rarely appeared in front of his followers or the worshippers. As the master of his art, he maintained a veil of mystery around him. However, it was not a question that they could answer. They only knew that Juan had come to do them justice. Kaze wiped his hands without even looking and said, “Don’t worry. I am not running away, I don’t need to. The Emerald Bull Palace and Juan will have to give me an explanation about this.” Since Juan had begged to be his disciple a while ago, Kaze had agreed to take him in, even if just nominally. Therefore, as a disciple, Juan must act like one in front of his master. Juan might be respectful and act humbly in front of Kaze but he should not allow his own disciples to bully others. Kaze did no
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3276 Alarms the Master
Looking at the astonishing scene, Cyan’s lips twitched, her eyes burned with flames of anger. She shouted, “Kaze, did you not hear what I just said? Are you deaf? You’ve already knocked out the security guards and now you are doing this to them? Do you know that they are Master Juan’s disciples? One of them is also Master Juan’s nephew! “How dare you! You are going to pay for it! If Master Juan finds out about this, this is going to get nasty!” Cyan was so upset that she wanted to slap Kaze in the face. The other worshippers already noticed the commotion and started to gather around them. When they saw Kaze teach the arrogant security guards a lesson, they felt a surge of satisfaction and relief. Emerald Bull Palace was huge and had a lot of parking spots, yet it was the biggest place of worship in Riverbank and a famous one among the worshippers. Therefore, the security guards took advantage of their positions by issuing unnecessary fines, harassing female visitors, and
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3275 Kneel
Without looking at Cyan, Snow kept her face straight and her mouth shut. At first, Snow thought of telling Kaze to ignore these people. There was no need to make a big deal out of things. However, the security guards took things far, and Snow did not want to waste her breath anymore. Sometimes, it was best to fight fire with fire. The security officers and three monks needed to be taught a lesson. Cyan was furious that Snow paid her no heed. She uttered exasperatedly, “Can you handle the fallout, Kaze?” “Why can’t I?” without looking back, Kaze replied indifferently. He stepped on the young monk’s face, and the latter shrieked in agony. Everybody was dumbfounded. Kaze’s cruelty and audacity knew no bounds. Dozens of security officers on the floor stayed down. Since Kaze did not care that one of the monks was Juan’s nephew, he would have no qualms about killing the rest of them too. “Get up and keep your back straight on your knees, or I’ll break your arm.” K
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3274 Highly Ranked Practitioner
During her last visit to Emerald Bull Palace, Cyan witnessed Jude and Alfonso chatting happily with Juan. Jude, Alfonso, and Juan were of a social standing beyond Cyan. Cyan’s family made their livelihood through the Viper’s Den South River State Branch. Alfonso was the former deputy chief and the longest-serving veteran. It was only right to suck up to a powerful figure like Juan. To think Kaze would start trouble on a foreign turf, disturb the peace at Emerald Bull Palace, and hurt the employees. Kaze was playing with fire.Cyan shouted frantically, “Kaze, stop! Stop right now!” Losing the fear, the three young monks looked smug and looked at Kaze in defiance. The monk in the middle sneered. “The lady is right. Juan is my uncle.“I dare you to hit us.“You won’t be walking out of here alive.“If you know any better, you should apologize to us on your knees and pay us eight to ten million dollars in medical fees. I might be happy to let you off the hook. “Otherwise
