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
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
“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
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
“That’s certainly not the case, Naomi. We’ve known each other for years, why wouldn’t we tell you?” Agnes smiled awkwardly and added, “We just moved in and haven’t tidied up everything. I was planning to inform you in a day or two.” When she moved into Horizon Mirror with her family, she indeed did not want the Laime family to know, but she could not escape them forever. The three of them waited for her outside the house and when she returned from grocery shopping, they caught her. Naomi grunted and scoffed, “Agnes, are you taking us as fools? We called you and asked if you’ve moved, but you stammered! “I know what you’re thinking. You don’t want us to know that you moved into a big house so we can’t get money from you. But can you run from us forever? Don’t forget you are the reason my daughter is dead! You owed us! And you can never ever repay us!” She slammed the tea table suddenly, startling Agnes. Her words pried open Agnes’ old scar. “Yes, I understand, Naomi. It
“Kaze Lee right? Get the fuck out of my face right now!” Larry pointed at the door as if he was the owner of Horizon Mirror. Kaze’s eyes gleamed coldly. “This is my house. YOU should leave!” He was upset by the mess the Laime family caused. He had not asked them to leave because Agnes owed them a lot, but Larry crossed the line by asking him, the owner of the house, to leave and his patience ran out.Larry must be joking! Larry scoffed, “Are you fucking with me now? Your house? You are also a useless parasite that lives under Agnes!” His gaze looked dangerous as he rolled his sleeves. “You don’t want to fuck off, then I’ll make you!” Larry threw a kick at Kaze. Kaze was furious. He simply lifted his leg and Larry’s kick landed at the back of his calf. Larry felt like he kicked an iron wall. “Ouch!” Larry cried in pain. His tanned face flushed and his expression turned bitter. “Fuck! How dare you fight back!” Larry swung a slap at Kaze. Kaze grunted. A hint of
“There’s a million in this card? Are you serious?” Larry’s eyes shone greedily when he heard there was a million in the bank card. He snatched the card and held it in his hand like he had gotten his precious. He eagerly asked for the PIN to access it. The card was Darcy’s, so the PIN was her birthday. Agnes told Larry the PIN, and only then the family decided to leave. They got up from the couch and swept the husks and ashes off their clothes before heading to the door. Agnes and her family breathed a sigh of relief. Before they stepped out, Naomi said, “Can any of you drive us back? This neighborhood is huge! We walked quite a bit to reach your house.” “Kaze, drive them back, and mind your manners!” Agnes was afraid that the Laime family would give her more trouble, so she urged Kaze to send them off. Larry glanced at Kaze and nodded. “Fine. Little piece of shit, you can drive us back!” He resented Kaze for hurting him earlier and decided to humiliate him on th
“Naomi, what happened? What did I do to Larry?” Agnes was confused, and so were the rest.The Laime family came over for a million dollars in the afternoon and drove off Darcy’s car. Now, Lance and Naomi came back and claimed that Agnes ruined Larry. They must be out of their minds. Naomi shouted at Agnes, “You! You gave Larry a million! If he didn’t have the money, he wouldn’t have gambled it all off! He lost the million and owed Hades two million! The car and Larry are still at his place! They want us to pay up to get him back!” Agnes and her family exchanged a baffled look. Larry said he wanted the million to start a business but he ended up gambling the money away. It had just been hours and he lost a million! Agnes felt an intense heartache for losing the money. She did not spend a penny yet Larry lost it within hours! Lance shouted, “Give us two million to get Larry back! Hades, the boss of the casino, said if we don’t get the money by tonight, he will cut of
