Guardian-In-Law Chapter 210 Name Change
Kaze got confirmation from Maurice that the three major families were involved in James’ death two years ago. Having built a successful business from scratch, James aspired to return home and revitalize his hometown.James brought cutting-edge technology from the southern coast to Lilyrose, eager to seek collaboration with the three top families. His kind gesture invited him trouble instead. The three families killed him and divided Shangrila Group among themselves. Five years ago, they and the Lee family of Sunrise City did the same thing to Quintessential. The rise of the three major families was a cruel story involving blood and tears.They seized Quintessential, elevating themselves to the ranks of top-tier families.In addition, they acquired shares of Shangrila Group, firmly establishing their dominance in Lilyrose.The feud simply piled on. Kaze had never been so sure about overthrowing the three major families. That was not the only thing on his list. As pu
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 211 Ungrateful
Dean Anstar, the HR director, who was the first to resign. Behind him were former executives and employees who resigned with him. They learned that Quintessential Group had overcome the crisis and got more than two billion worth of investment from different major companies. They regretted leaving the company. The Group would surely rise to prominence and expand rapidly. The employees of the company would also enjoy all kinds of benefits, so when they heard the company was hiring again, they came back. Unfortunately, there were too many candidates. The normal employees got anxious. They were afraid their original positions would be taken, so they teamed up with Dean and the other executives to force other candidates to leave. Dean was smart as well. As a traitor, he knew his odds of returning to Quintessential were slim, but if he could get several former employees on his side, then he would have the leverage to negotiate with Darcy. Therefore, he revealed his former i
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 212 Who Are You?
The candidates stopped and turned around to Darcy. “Darcy Quint? I heard she was accused by her friend and now cleared her name.” “I heard the banks targeted her and withheld the loans to take revenge on her. She’s forced to a dead end and still able to save the company. She’s really a capable leader. Let’s hear what she has to say.” Even though they were still upset, they were willing to give a chance to Darcy for her reputation. “Thank you. I will provide everyone with a satisfactory explanation.” After she held the new applicants back, she turned to Dean and the others. She bellowed, “Dean, you left the company in the face of a crisis and we compensated you for everything. We owed you nothing and now you came to ruin our hiring process? What are you trying to do?” The new applicants finally knew what happened. Dean and the former employees were no longer part of Quintessential Group and they were here to cause problems. How shameless! How disgusting! Dean and the
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 213 No! I Refuse!
The Quint family came because they knew the company just got two billion worth of investment. They cut ties with the company when it faced bankruptcy and even made Darcy the CEO to take responsibility for everything. Now that the company had come back to life and got a huge injection of funds, the Quint family regretted it; especially Rudy and his children. They were afraid that Darcy would root herself in the position of CEO, so they brought Master Quint along. They got even more anxious and upset after Dean informed them of the company's politics. “Master Quint, stop Darcy! She’s trying to seize all the power for herself and make the company her own kingdom!” All of them looked at Master Quint, hoping that he would relieve Darcy of her duties. “How shameless are you people to accuse me like that? I did everything for the sake of the Quintessential!” Darcy was upset by their shamelessness. When the company faced a crisis, they abandoned the ship and saved only their sk

Master Quint’s expression turned bitter when he heard the employees’ chant. He looked at his family. If Rudy was not accepted, then he would change to someone else. However, before he could say a word, Kaze spoke on his behalf, saying, “If not Rudy, then how about Samus?” “No!” the employees chanted angrily. “Deborah?” “No!” “Hensen?” This would be Darcy’s uncle. “No!” “No!” “No!” Kaze mentioned every single name of the Quint family and the only answer he got was a big fat “no”.Each loud cry of the name was a slap to the person’s face. “Master Quint, you’ve heard the people.” Kaze glared at everyone and scoffed, “All of you abandoned the company at dire times, so the company will also abandon you when it’s doing great!” Samus, Deborah, and the others were embarrassed. They resented Kaze for humiliating them, but Kaze could not care less about their feelings. His expression turned grim before he bellowed, “My wife, Darcy, is the CEO of Quintessential Gr
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 215 First Intimate Contact
Dean and the others were stunned. Like Randal Song and his men at the construction site, they were all Rudy’s right-hand men. Since Rudy was incapable and could not control them, they embezzled a lot of money from the company. “Ms. Quint! We’re sorry! We’re wrong! We are the pioneers of the company, we contributed to the company so much! Don’t arrest us!” Dean and the other former executives grabbed the officers’ legs and begged Darcy for mercy, hoping that she would spare them. “It’s too late now.” Kaze waved and told the Economic Investigation Division to take them away. After the lot of them were arrested, other ex-employees scattered and left the building immediately. Some of them looked horrified. They must have done some shady things themselves as well. However, Kaze did not plan to go after them as there were too many, and besides, not all of them had committed serious crimes that could be charged. It would be more than enough to make an example out of Dean and
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 216 Parasite
“Kaze, are you done?” Darcy looked at Kaze, blushing. Kaze had been hugging her for a while and his hands were getting naughty. “I’m never done with you, hehe…” Kaze finally let go of her after taking in her scent. He released her with a heavy heart, well aware that he should not cross the line. The intimate contact today was a good start to their romantic relationship. Darcy then returned to her desk to resume work. She would call some of the newly promoted chiefs or leaders into the office for discussions. Now that she had become the CEO of Quintessential Group, she was responsible for everything in the company and would only be busier than before. Though she enjoyed being occupied; being able to concentrate at work and having no one to drag her down felt great. Kaze did not disturb her. He went to the other room with his phone and waited for her to finish work. “I’m done. Let’s go home.” Sometime later, the door opened and Darcy popped her head inside. Kaze t
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 217 Medical Incident
Kaze would never do as told. His eyes gleamed coldly and wanted to teach Larry a lesson. However, he frowned when he saw the righteousness in the young man’s face. Something was not right. “What do you mean?” Did the Quint family owe the Laime family a life? Larry scoffed, “Stop acting stupid, you fuck. If you don’t dare to cut your neck with a knife, then sit back and let me suck off your family!” He then lit another cigarette and strutted into the house. “Agnes, I’m thirsty. I want tea!” His arrogant voice could be heard from inside the house. He was like a king who returned to his palace. Kaze looked at Darcy and Sky. “What do we owe him?” Darcy sighed and started recounting the past. “Five years ago, when my mother was still the section deputy chief of Prime Hospital, a medical incident happened and a patient lost her life.” The deceased was Larry’s older sister, Letty. Agnes was the person in charge. She lost her medical license and was fired by the hospi

“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
