Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3 Candidate for Succession
“Kaze, you’ve recovered?!” Seeing the clarity in Kaze’s eyes, Darcy covered her mouth in disbelief, thrilled to see her husband looking lively. “Yes, Darcy, I have recovered.” Kaze looked at Darcy as his eyes teared up despite having gone through countless brutal fights on the battlefield himself. Darcy broke down in tears instantly. She was thrilled to see Kaze healthy. Kaze pulled her into his arms. He felt sorry for putting her through so much suffering all these years. “Hmph. So what if you’ve recovered? You are still a piece of trash,” Deborah said with a scoff. She sat down, pointed at the folded table in the corner, and said loudly, “Get over there and sit down. Contributing ten billion? What a joke!” Kaze frowned. He wanted to argue but Darcy stopped him and dragged him over to the corner. The four of them sat at the folded table. The others were having a feast whereas Darcy and her family were served four cups of ramen. Master Quint at the center seat loo
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 4 Pietro Beneli
Looking at Kaze’s confident face, Darcy hesitated. She thought of her family’s current financial situation and it gave her no choice. She bit the bullet, got up, and said, “Grandfather, I’ll go and recover the debt.” “You stupid girl! Are you crazy? What if that gangster ripped your face apart? Henry wouldn’t want you then!” Agnes panicked. The others were shocked, including Master Quint. No one expected Darcy to take up the task. Samus and the others gloated at her. He then took a five-dollar bill and tossed it at Darcy. “This is for your bravery and for you to take the bus back.” Deborah crossed her arms and said with raised brows, “You agreed to go yourself. If anything happens to you, don't blame us.” Kaze glared at the few of them coldly. He did not even want to argue with them because they were simply clowns. He held Darcy’s hand and left the mansion. Meanwhile, Darcy’s parents were giddy with anxiety. Agnes gritted her teeth, “We must ask Henry to help us, he’s o
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 5 Shocked
Lee? Pietro looked at Kaze, baffled. “There is a man named Kaze Lee, and I’m trying to teach him a lesson.” A loud thud could be heard from the other end of the line. Pietro asked, “Boss, are you alright?” Then, a thunderous roar from the man was blasted into Pietro’s ear through the phone. “Alright? I’m not f*cking alright! Are you trying to f*ck with me now?! I’m warning you, whatever that man tells you to do, you f*cking do it, understand? He is a God from now on!” Pietro was stunned. He had never seen Giovani this scared for as long as he worked for him. He instinctively asked, “Boss, are you mistaken? He’s just some trash who married into the Quint family.” “Pietro, are you trying to get yourself killed? You and I are like flies to him. One swat and we are all dead, crushed! You understand me?!” “Boss, I…” Pietro got nervous. “Last warning. That man is someone that not even I can mess with, you better take care of your own a*s!” The call ended abruptly. Pie
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 6 Cloud Nine
“Hmph!” Miru scoffed. “I would like to see how you do that. By the way, do you know where Henry is bringing us to dinner tonight? It’s the third floor of Cloud Nine! A piece of trash like you could never get into such a luxurious restaurant even if you work your entire life!” Agnes’ eyes glimmered with excitement. “The third floor of Cloud Nine?! Only Golden members can make a booking at that place!” Cloud Nine was one of the most famous restaurants in Lilyrose and only by spending above ten million on a single receipt, one would be eligible to apply for the Golden membership. Master Quint was the only one in the entire family to have a Golden member card. As for floors above the third, the required spending would be much higher. Miru glanced at Kaze and scoffed, “Kaze, this is the difference between you and Henry. I have no idea what gives you the confidence to continue staying at Darcy’s side.” “Miru, stop talking to this piece of trash. Darcy is here. Let’s go. We wouldn
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 7 Want to Meet Someone Important
“Pietro’s boss? Isn’t that Giovani Beneli?” Miru scoffed and said, “Kaze, do you even know who Giovani Beneli is? That is a big shot with a vast network and influence, even my godfather has to respect him. You are here saying that Giovani Beneli is hosting a feast for you as a token of apology? Are you trying to get yourself killed?” “Miru, if you don’t believe me, you can go up there and see for yourself,” Kaze said calmly but Miru rolled her eyes at him. Henry regained his composure and said with a smile, “I think he saw Giovani’s car at the entrance, that’s why he said so. Fortunately, there are no outsiders here, or else all of us would suffer if it reaches the man’s ears.” Everyone was afraid. “I’ve had enough of your nonsense!” Agnes slammed the table and shouted, “You keep being a retard and it embarrasses us. Get out of my face or I’ll slap you to death!” “Kaze, why don’t you go first? I’ll come home after dinner.” Darcy was embarrassed as well. She got up and dra
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 8 It Doesn’t Matter Whose Son You Are
Miru was excited to catch a glimpse of someone that prominent as well. “Darcy, let’s go have a look at the elevator later,” Miru said as she tugged on Darcy's sleeve. “I’ll pass. I have to go back with Kaze later…” Darcy was a little tipsy after a few glasses of wine. Miru sighed disappointedly and said, “You are still thinking about that retard? This is a golden opportunity! If we leave a strong impression on those people, your family won’t have to worry about money anymore!” “Then… alright.” A while later, Geoffrey received a call. Everyone got nervous. Was the important person coming down already? Geoffrey put his phone down helplessly. “My father just called and told me the dinner is over. The important person has left.” “How unfortunate. I thought we could get a glimpse of the person…” Everyone sighed. “Darcy, are you done?” Kaze came into the room. “Kaze, what are you doing here? Go away!” Miru was still reeling in the disappointment of not seeing the
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 9 Shameless Quints
Miru scoffed. Henry narrowed his eyes and nodded. He ridiculed, “Sure, Kaze. You can show me how it’s done.” He did not want to waste his time on a retard. With his wealth, if he wanted, Darcy could live like a queen. For all that he cared, he might as well give the chance to Kaze and let him screw things up. With the useless retard as a comparison, Henry had a good chance to stand out.Agnes ignored Kaze completely and asked, “Henry, can you invite Pietro to Darcy’s birthday party? We can thank him for paying us back.” Henry’s smile froze. When he called Pietro earlier, Pietro scolded him and hung up impatiently before he could say anything. He did not expect Pietro to really pay up. He was uncertain if he was able to invite Pietro to Darcy’s party. However, when he saw Kaze looking at him, his heart tightened. He bit the bullet and said, “Agnes, don’t worry. I’ll call Pietro and invite him.” He pulled his phone out and dialed the number. His heart was pounding wildly
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 10 Birthday Present
What? Did Darcy recover the debt? How? Deborah just told everyone that Pietro was furious because of Kaze and Darcy. Deborah and the others were stunned, including Master Quint who then dug his ears and asked, “You… You really got the money back?” Darcy nodded and gave the man the check and the account book. “Grandfather, this is the check, please have a look.” Master Quint stared at the check for a while before he breathed a sigh of relief. He nodded, “It’s a check from Pietro Beneli.” The rest of the family members felt relieved. It seemed Pietro was not mad at all because Darcy got the money back, which meant the Quint family would be safe and fine. “Hmph! Do you really think it’s you who recovered the debt? Stop dreaming!” Deborah stepped up and shouted, “If not for me, Pietro would never give you two the money! He slapped me! He must have given the money back to compensate me!” The other family members nodded in agreement upon hearing Deborah’s explanation. S

“Gone too far?” Phoenix said furiously, “Do you want to get it too, boy?” “Shut up, Kaze!” Not wanting the situation to escalate, Agnes charged over and said ingratiatingly, “I’m sorry, Madam Quint. We didn’t do a good job raising Sky. He simply didn’t think straight in the heat of the moment.”“I’m sorry. I’m really sorry!” Darcy apologized as well. “I’ll wipe the blood off you, Madam Quint. We don’t want to get your hands dirty.” Joan pulled out a tissue and cleaned Phoenix’s hands fawningly while uttering sarcastically, “You have no idea, Madam Quint. Some people have the money. They just don’t want to spend it.“As far as I know, our little leader is living in a villa worth several hundred million dollars in Riverbank. The villa was a gift from Mayor Synder too.“They didn’t give a bracelet that was only worth half a million because they have no money. They simply do not care enough for you, Madam Quint. “They’re just trying to fob you off since you’re only an old
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3123 Who Are You Insulting?
“We from Chrysant City have given Madam Quint a bullet-proof Lincoln stretch from Uleania. The Lincoln will be Madam Quint’s ride in Riverbank,” a middle-aged man with glasses said smugly.Kaze glanced at the Lincoln stretch not too far away, understanding the value of the car. “Madam Quint can’t be staying in the hotel throughout her trip. We, the branch in Takeno City, are a family in politics, so we lack funding. Still, we borrowed a villa from a major corporation to accommodate Madam Quint,” a representative of the Takeno Quints said with a chuckle. The Takeno Quints talked about borrowing. Their primary focus was on politics, so they could not be honest about their net worth. However, every branch of the Quints presented Phoenix with expensive gifts. Each gift was worth at least five million dollars. The five-hundred-thousand-dollar bracelet from Darcy’s family seemed modest in comparison. Sure enough, Phoenix grew upset and raised her free arm to slap the gift box
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3122 How Much?
Even Darcy did not think Phoenix would deny her. It was true that Darcy was supposed to gather all family branches in Riverbank. She would have to discipline the unruly and unite the rest. Her goal was to consolidate the family’s power and resources under her control. It was a clear and comprehensive strategy. Darcy had not anticipated such a response from her first meeting with Phoenix. It was harsh. Phoenix completely dismissed her. Darcy, though accepting fault, felt hurt. Agnes felt like her world was crumbling down. If Darcy was stripped of her leadership role, the family would go back to when things were bad. Ever since Darcy became the family head in the South River State, Agnes was treated like royalty everywhere she went. She was addicted to the privileges. Agnes never wanted to go back to those days when people would look down on her.“Darcy, where’s the gift you got for Madam Quint? Hurry up and apologize to her.” Agnes grabbed Darcy hastily. A
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3121 Good for Nothing
“You should know that Madam Quint loves flowers, and you came empty-handed. No flowers, no gifts.” “You talk about respect for Madam Quint. It’s all talk. What have you done for her?” “You are hicks from a small place like Lilyrose. Where are your manners? You’re lucky to become the head of the South River Quints, but you will always lack refinement.” “I’m starting to worry about this leader taking us to new heights. I guess we can consider ourselves lucky if she doesn’t bring us down.” “Yeah! She was late and came empty-handed. This tells us all we need to know about this family.” Taking Joan’s lead, the other family members lay into Darcy’s family thick and hard. “That’s enough!” Before Kaze said anything, Sky had a go at these people. “You tried to set my sister up, and now you’re putting the blame on us!“Only you had information of Madam Quint’s flight. You only let us know half an hour before the plane touched down. “Why didn’t we come earlier to wait in the airp
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3120 Phoenix Quint
Kaze narrowed his eyes at the woman and drew close. “You’re a member of the South River Quints. Should you stand by your leader instead of stirring the pot and causing the scene? “Does family even mean anything to you? “Are you defying the family? “Who are you to disrespect Madam Quint and the family?” The woman staggered back with each question, her face draining of color.“I… You…” Flustered, she glared at Kaze. Still, she was at a loss in the face of Kaze’s questioning. “I assure you, Madam Quint. My daughter, Joan, doesn’t mean any disrespect.” A grizzled-haired middle-aged man with glasses came forward with an ashen face. “She was just trying to defend your honor, Madam Quint. She’s upset because someone disrespected you and arrived late.” This person was manipulative. While sticking up for his daughter, he also took the opportunity to belittle Darcy. “Doesn’t mean any disrespect?” Kaze snapped back, “Madam Quint hasn’t said a thing, but a nobody came out
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3119 My Wife Looks Down on You
It appeared Kaze and Darcy were not the only ones who got their hands on the special pass straight to the hangar. Five groups stood in close proximity, yet a clear divide was evident between them.Interestingly, that was as many branches as the Quints had in Ridgesouth.The smallest cluster belonged to Hector, Agnes, and Sky. They kept their heads down, hiding their distress. It looked like they were insulted. As Darcy and Kaze got out of the car, all eyes turned to them, and many sneered. “Can you even drive, Kaze? Look at the time! Are you expecting Madam Quint to wait for you? You have the nerve to show your face when you’re already late!” Agnes tore into Kaze. She threw Kaze under the bus in hopes of deflecting Phoenix’s anger from Darcy. Having seen through Agnes, Kaze did not make a fuss and explained, “Sorry, when we received word, Madam Quint’s plane was touching down in half an hour. “What? Are you blaming us for informing you late?” A tall and pretty woman
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3118 Half an Hour
With Sasha putting the blame on herself, Kaze shook his head. He was not pointing fingers. “You can accept the pay from Herbal Spring.” Kaze said, “You’re not living at Herbal Spring for free. Your aunt is paying for you. Once you get into college, you can make more money to repay her.”“Really?” Sasha was skeptical. Besides boarding and lodging at Herbal Spring, Sasha was also taking medicine for her health. After working there for a while, Sasha had a general idea of things. Sasha’s medicine was expensive, and the medical bill was beyond the budget of most families. Kaze said, “You can ask Darcy if you don’t believe me. Your aunt even asked me if she had paid enough money when I was heading out this morning.” Despite knowing it was a lie, Darcy nodded. “Sasha, Kaze is right. Don’t feel burdened.” Sasha was naïve and gullible. Darcy’s statement gave Sasha the push. Since Kaze and Darcy were rich, Sasha assumed that her aunt must earn a lot. Her aunt could afford
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3117 Naïve Girl
Everett understood that Kaze would make a big deal out of the Golden Road at tomorrow’s auction. Of course, it was none of Everett’s business. He had no qualms about turning his back on Aiden. As one of the four underworld kingpins, Everett would give the Krads their due respect, but he did not owe Aiden anything. Aiden was an individual. He did not represent the Krads as a whole. “So that’s decided.” Kaze then said, “That reminds me. Have your people pick out a nice bracelet. I’m looking at the five-hundred-thousand-dollar range.”“Oh, consider it a gift from me. Just inform Marilyn.” Everett was quick to offer a gift. Kaze did not appreciate the gesture though. Everett was a cunning man. His generosity may seem like an olive branch. However, Kaze knew that given the chance, Everett would make him pay. Everett would never have the chance though. Kaze would fight back, and the consequences could be fatal. “Mr. Lee, Ms. Quint, are you happy with this bracelet
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3116 The Art of Gift-Giving
“I reckon that the stone might be important to someone within the Krads.“Aiden volunteered to take care of the business in Riverbank and go up against your wife. He’s not just here to suck up to his chief commander brother but to prove to the Krads that he’s better than the rest of the competition.“If he can gain that somebody’s favor, this can be bigger than his achievements in business.” Everett adopted the requirement analysis. Though Everett had no idea why the Golden Toad was important to the Krads, he understood Aiden’s needs. By grasping an individual’s core requirement, he was able to deduce something that was closer to the truth. “Has Aiden lost his head?” Kaze uttered in confusion, “He could’ve just gotten the thing from you at a better rate. Why is he getting to buy it from an auction?” Everett mentioned that the Golden Toad was worth tens of millions of dollars, but no more than a hundred million dollars. Aiden could have made a private deal with Everett.
