Kaze was loud when he made the announcement and it stopped the employees on their tracks. They turned around and looked at Kaze with a frosty grin. Dean, the HR director who was the first to resign, scoffed. “You messed with the top three families, there is no future in this company anymore! We’ll have to find our next job, or else it will be too late. Guys, am I right?” “Yeah!” The executives and employees who already made up their minds adhered loudly. “Ms. Quint, don’t forget to pay us what is due, or else we will take the necessary actions as well.” Dean then led the group of employees away. The executives and employees heartlessly left the company at a time of crisis and even threatened to take legal action if they were not duly compensated. Kaze ignored them and turned to the other employees who stayed. They were also worried and concerned but they did not leave immediately. Kaze said loudly, “To those who stay, your salary will be raised three times and bonus dou
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 190 New Owner? Did I Approve?
Darcy widened her eyes in disbelief. She was shocked by how shameless her grandfather was. Before this, the man thought of every possible way to stop her from taking control of the company. He would rather leave the CEO’s seat empty than give it to her. Now that the company was on the brink of collapse, he shoved it into her hands just to make her take full responsibility. Even Kaze became the legal representative of multiple subsidiaries. A penniless, jobless man became the boss of a multimillion company in just a few hours. How ridiculous was that? “Grandfather, when did you get your hands on Kaze’s identification? Have you gotten his permission?” Darcy bellowed. Displeased, Master Quint grunted and said, “Don’t forget that we are feeding the idiot for free! If not for us, he is dead already! We do not need his permission to do things with his identification!” Darcy took a deep breath to keep herself sane. She knew her grandfather had planned this for a while and it
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 191 Grand Fireworks
The men Toffle brought from the court were knocked down to the ground as well. As a matter of fact, they did not go through any legal procedures to claim the house. They were simply dragged here by Toffle to bluff Darcy and her family, trying to force them to move out immediately. Therefore, they were not able to voice their grievances. “Take them away!” the captain said. Toffle was dragged away like a ragdoll. While he was being dragged away, he bellowed, “Darcy Quint, don’t think this is over! My brother, Maurice, has the support of the top three families! He is more connected than you thought! Your company is completely locked out, the bank cutting you off is only the start! If you can’t settle the debt, Horizon Mirror will be mine soon! Not even the chief commander can disobey the law… Ouch!” Toffle got another hit in his stomach before he could finish his sentence and finally silenced him. “The man is right. If we cannot settle the debt, we might have to move out of
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 192 Startled National Guards
Toffle went to the Housing Authority Office. When he reached the counter, he revealed his identity and stated his intention. “I am Toffle Toan, the chairman of Bersina Group, the brother of Maurice Toan, the chairman of Lilyrose Bank. I’m also a relative of the top three families. I want Horizon Mirror to be under my name in five minutes!” He believed with three different identities shown, he would have no problem getting the house. The clerk at the counter was frightened and quickly pulled up the necessary documents to verify the details. She had no problem verifying Toffle’s identities but when she tried to pull up the information regarding the owner of Horizon Mirror, she faced some problems. She searched the entire system but could not find any information about Kaze. “What’s wrong? What’s the delay?” Toffle grumbled as he was losing his patience. The clerk said, “Mr. Toan, there seems to be a problem with the current owner’s details. We are unable to search for him
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 193 Toffle Toan Arrested
“Mayor Brooks! I didn’t do anything. What happened?!” Colin remained baffled and scared. “You don’t know what you did?!” Johnson was frustrated. He wanted to slap the man in the face. “I just received a call from the National Guards that someone in this building is trying to access confidential information of a 5S personnel! “Multiple warnings were issued but the hacking continued. The National Guards suspected that terrorists were trying to hurt the target and activated the self-destruct program in the database. They also ordered us to exterminate all threats at all cost!” Colin and the others were stunned upon hearing the mayor. Classified information of a 5S personnel? No one had ever heard of it before, let alone accessing the information. However, with all the soldiers and police officers pointing their guns in their face, they were finally convinced. Johnson shouted, “Tell me who is trying to access the information?!” “Mayor Brooks, we didn’t access any confid
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 194 Two Hundred Million Gone
“We got Kaze’s information from the local psychiatric ward, how could it be wrong?” The Quints were shocked when they were informed by Maurice’s men that the information regarding Kaze they provided was wrong. Master Quint slapped Samus and bellowed, “You little useless shit, how did you get the information? Look what you’ve done!” Samus covered his face in grievance. He had no idea what went wrong. “Cut the nonsense. Give us back the two hundred million. And you have to compensate us another hundred million because Toffle was arrested by the National Guards!” Maurice’s men were impatient and annoyed. The entire Quint family was silenced. Master Quint tried to argue but when he saw the vicious look on the men’s faces, he gulped nervously. “Guys, please inform Mr. Toan that we will return the two hundred million. For the other hundred million, we’ll compensate him in the future. We don’t have enough money…” He lowered his voice and started begging. Maurice got the ne
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 195 Humiliation
“Since the company owed three hundred million, another hundred million won’t hurt.” Meanwhile in Horizon Mirror, Darcy was unusually calm when she received a call from her grandfather. Master Quint blamed Kaze for everything, which rendered her speechless. All of a sudden, Agnes cried loudly in her room. “Who? Who made rumors like this? They are being ridiculous! My daughter is not like this! They are trying to drive us nuts!” Darcy and Kaze went over, then Sky. Agnes was on the floor, crying and panting. When she saw Darcy, she handed her phone over. “Darcy, look!” Darcy looked at the phone, petrified. Her face turned as pale as paper. “The COO of Quintessential Group tried to bribe the director of Lilyrose Bank with her body but failed. She then Instigated her psychotic husband to beat him up!” “Lilyrose Bank will sue them for the sake of their director and executives.” “The accused’s university classmate will testify in court!” All kinds of online news bombar
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 196 Joy Wants to Be an Influencer
Kaze sounded as cold as ice. He was furious. Snow shuddered after the call. She immediately called Don and the others to relay the message. Soon, both the police and the gangsters received a picture of Joy and their task would be to locate her. Meanwhile, in the Old District, Joy and her husband, Hugh Cocker, arrived at an old and shabby clinic. Both of them wore shades. “Joy, I saw the girl’s picture. She’s beautiful. I believe she can help us give birth to a beautiful baby. “But the fee for a surrogate mother is too expensive. Five million for a baby?! Chairman Toan gave us ten million and if we pay this, we’re left with only five million. We still have to buy a car and a house. We can’t just spend the money like this.” Hugh was having a hard time convincing himself to spend the money on a baby. “Hugh, you are as short-sighted as ever!” Joy rolled her eyes at her husband. She then pulled her phone out and showed him her fans on her page. “Look at this. I already hav

“I have pointed you in a direction. If you still can’t trust your team, you can go to the Viper’s Den.“There’s one thing, though. Don’t rely too heavily on the Viper’s Den, or your company will be left without secrets.” Kaze’s suggestion gave Snow assurance. She considered tapping into the Viper’s Den’s resources. However, Kaze warned her against excessive dependence. “Why did you say that, Chairman Lee? Will the Viper’s Den stab me in the back?” Surely, the Viper’s Den took orders from Kaze. The Viper’s Den would always be an ally so long as Kaze was the branch leader. “I just don’t want you to put too much faith in others. You find loyalty by developing your own team. Those who revere me will never trust you completely.” Kaze analyzed the situation. Snow ate her supper and looked at Kaze in confusion. “You can only count on the people you win over. You can’t trust anyone else, and that includes me.” Kaze would never hurt Snow. However, he hoped that she would fin
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3721 Time Heals
“As you said, all is in the past. What’s the point of dwelling on it?” Leah perked up. Such was life, but it took her too long to understand the harsh reality. She guessed things were just not meant to be. “I’ll think about what to get Kaze. Rest well. We’ll visit him in a few days.” Taking the matter seriously, Katie wanted to get gifts ready ahead of time to thank Kaze. “Alright. I’ll see what I can do too. I want to be in touch with the outside world. I don’t care what they have to say. This is not my fault. I won’t blame myself.” Leah wanted her phone back to contact her former friends. Ultimately, she needed to move forward instead of backward. She had to face and fight back the rumors with courage. It was the crucial step to kick trauma in the face. The abduction was kept hush-hush for the most part, but Katie’s frantic search for her daughter at the cocktail party did not go unnoticed. Hearing about the incident, the influential people were keen to find out
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3720 Moment’s Gone
“When did Kaze start setting it all up? I get the feeling that everybody played into his hands right from the start, and he had controlled every step of the way.” Leah realized that Kaze was an amazing man. Nothing could go past his eyes. “I don’t know.” Katie feared someone like Kaze. She would not be caught dead near him. Even when grasping the situation, Katie dared not look into Kaze for fear she would be targeted. Katie was careful not to show her face around Kaze. For all she knew, Kaze might get back at her. “But he came to Butterworth alone. We met at the train station, and he helped me out of a bad situation.” Leah felt warm and cozy inside just remembering the events. They did not know each other then. Kaze was kind to help a stranger out. From then on, Kaze could do no wrong in Leah’s eyes. Leah befriended him and found him nice. Her interest in him grew. They also got along well. Her memories of Kaze were sweet. Anyone could hurt her in the world, but
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3719 Never Getting Out
Even though Katie was the CEO of the Northborn Group, many eyed her position. There were too many vying to replace her. Without dedicating herself to her work, Katie risked falling from grace. Katie had been too eager to find success to give her daughter the best life. Leah could not understand the pain Katie had to go through. “I understand it now. I explained the nature of my relationship with Kaze to you, but you just wouldn’t get it.” Leah stubbornly expressed herself in hopes her mother would understand. “I just couldn’t get it through my head that you have grown up. You make an easy target since you just graduated and have not stepped into the real world.” Katie would not always be there for Leah. Hence, Katie did her best to get rid of potential danger. Her overprotectiveness triggered Leah’s defiance. It was Katie’s fault for not realizing it sooner. “I’m not angry with you. I didn’t understand a mother’s good intentions, but I understand now. I will listen to
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3718 For Your Own Good
Leah’s face beamed, but her mother’s words threw her into a daze. In the end, she tried to squeeze a smile to assure her mother. However, Leah could not muster a smile. Those days lingered with her like a recurring bad dream. Whenever she recalled the incident, she felt trapped in that nightmare again. Leah wanted to let those memories fade away, but she just could not do it. She would get startled awake late at night and trace the scars across her skin. During moments like this, she resented Perry. Leah was rather cheerful during the day as if the past was behind her. However, it was simply a way for her to escape the pain. By the way Leah was behaving, Katie instantly regretted the question. She should not have probed. Even if they avoided the elephant in the room, they could pretend like nothing ever happened. Nevertheless, the act of asking brought up unsettling times for Leah. “It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have asked.” Katie gently held Leah, hoping to cast
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3717 Perry’s Fate
When the ambulance door closed shut, Leah wailed once more. The reality of her rescue finally sank in, and she grasped that it was not just a dream. It was a pity that she did not have much time with Kaze. She longed to spend more time with him. “Don’t cry, young lady. You’ll get better soon enough. Don’t worry about the scars on your face. I can administer medicine to help you,” the doctor said while wiping her tears. “Thank you. I’m finally out of the hell hole.” Leah’s worst nightmare would be to be trapped in there forever. Kaze watched as the ambulance disappeared into the night. He then turned to face the villa. “Apprehend everybody in there. Perry should be punished for his crimes.” Kaze had not intended to go after the Duncans, but the family had crossed the line this time. Leah was an adorable and vulnerable woman. She was abused beyond recognition. It never occurred to Kaze that the Duncans could be so cruel. “Perry has passed out in there. Where should
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3716 Rescue
With the secret out in the open, the housekeeper dropped his attitude. He pointed at the basement not too far away. “My employer is in there.” The housekeeper grimaced and kept his head down. Kaze laughed. Unaware of his impending doom, Perry was still living it up. It was absurd. Perry was playing with fire by hurting Leah. “About time you wise up.” Arthur smiled and patted the housekeeper’s face. He opened the door to the basement. Kaze walked to the bar counter and picked up the best bottle of champagne there. He fiddled with the bottle before carrying it to the basement. The other Viper’s Den members followed him. Kaze took a stride down the steps, to the basement. The noisy music was blasting before they reached the entry. Kaze was filled with a mix of emotions. Nevertheless, he said nothing. He opened the door and walked in. The light in the basement was bright, making everything perfectly clear. However, the people inside were not bothered by the
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3715 The Duncans Mean Squat
“You know him. It’s Perry Duncan, Leah’s ex-boyfriend.” Snow did not see the point of hiding the truth, so she laid everything out. “Leah must be feeling foul because she was unaware that she was being stalked. By the time she realized what was going on, she was taken into a vehicle. “We spotted the vehicle they departed in from the surveillance footage. They headed to the mountain up north.” Snow had a general idea of the location. “I got Arthur on the job. He’s putting up a team from the Viper’s Den.” Snow was uncertain of Kaze’s stance toward Leah, but now that she was made aware of the situation, the least she could do was help. Katie belonged to the Viper’s Den, so Snow was lending a hand to a friend in business. “Thank you. Please save my daughter.” Katie was nervous. The Viper’s Den was the people she could count on. “Arthur is good, but he’s slow. I’ll do it,” Kaze said. The whole thing was unrelated to him. Kaze was well within his right to stand on the si
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3714 Abduction for Ransom
Even so, Elsie was out to get Leah. Elsie could pick up on Perry’s delight when she took a swing at Leah. Poor Elsie was just trying to survive by catering to others. People like her learned to pick up social cues and read body language to please customers for money in return. Their income would double if their customers were happy. Leah was the obstacle. If the women could not get rid of her, they would lose their profit. They had no hard feelings for Leah, but they stood on opposing ends. “You should be fawning over Mr. Duncan, not begging me,” Elsie said while grabbing Leah’s hair to pull her up. Leah snatched Elsie’s wrist to try and break free. “Let me go. I never did anything to you.” Leah was no doormat. She did not want to cross these people or get involved with them. She still hoped that by waiting here, her prince would arrive to save her. However, all she got was a cruel beating, and she had enough. “This isn’t my fault. Blame Mr. Duncan for your cir
