Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2136 Mansion as a Gift
“I…” Kane flushed with embarrassment, his eyes burning with fury. He served as a government personnel at the city council and was considered one of the better-known figures in Riverbank. Yet he had to kneel and apologize to someone he looked down on before. His grievance piled up. Thump! Just as he was contemplating, Kaze kicked him in the stomach. The heavy thud caused Kane to fall to his knees. Slap! Kaze smacked him on the face, causing one cheek to swell up instantly. “If you can’t do it, then don’t even talk about it,” Kaze said as he held the bracelet in his hand to feel the carvings. Had Kane not mocked him earlier, he would not have slapped the man. Kane practically asked for it. Looking at Kane’s aggrieved look and eyes with vengeful intent, Hamlin said indifferently, “Kane Jango, I will inform the mayor about what you have done here.” “No!” Kane was horrified. If Hamlin reported this to the mayor, his future would be ruined. He quickly prostrat
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2137 Condition Worsen
Kaze said with a smile, “Mayor Synder is quite rich and generous I see.” Hamlin smiled back. “Mr. Lee, please don’t take it the wrong way. The Synders are a family with a long history here in Riverbank and the annual dividend for the mayor alone is a large sum of money. He doesn’t need to commit illegal acts just to get some allowance.” “I see. I guess I have misunderstood Kent.” Kaze picked up and looked at the document before taking the keycard too. “Please thank Kent for me.” He never intended for Kent to repay him but he did save the man’s life back at the train station. Therefore, be it the blessed artifact by Pastor Angelo or the mansion, Kaze believed he earned it. If Kent were not lucky enough to meet him, Riverbank would have lost its mayor. Kaze was confident only a handful of people in Arcadia could save Kent at that instant. Seeing that Kaze accepted the mansion, Hamlin stood up with a satisfied smile. “The mayor is waiting for me. I’ll leave you to your din
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2138 A Strange Condition
“This mayor's residence used to be the embassy of Ryokan. After the Ryokanians moved out, in order to save money, the city council used what they had left behind, that’s why it feels like that,” Hamlin introduced the place to Kaze. Upon hearing the introduction, a thought came to Kaze’s mind. Kent was cursed by the Ryokanians and it almost got him killed. The mayor’s residence that he was living in used to be the embassy of Ryokan. Could Myra’s condition be related to the place? Kaze subtly asked, “If I may ask, did Myra’s condition begin after they moved in here, or did it already exist before?” Hamlin was slightly surprised but he quickly understood the question. “Ms. Myra’s condition started shortly after Mr. Synder became the mayor. Ms. Myra was still a college student, so she moved in with her parents. “Mr. Lee, are you saying that Ms. Myra’s condition is related to this place? Is it because she moved into this place?” Hamlin asked with a grim look. He was Kent’s
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2139 A Conman
Standing at the top of the stairs, Cole looked down at Kaze with contempt. He returned to his arrogant and hostile self, like when he first met Kaze. The respect he had for Kaze after Kaze saved Kent had faded. There was another group of people behind him, men and women with some locals and some foreigners. Two of them captured Kaze’s attention. The first one would be a young and beautiful woman who exuded a powerful aura. Her professional business attire and black heels made her look stern and fierce. People would easily notice her at first glance. The other one would be a man with blonde hair and blue eyes. The glasses he wore gave him an academic demeanor and composed presentation. “Cole, Mr. Lee saved Mr. Synder back at the train station. You saw it with your own eyes as well. Mr. Synder told me to take good care of Mr. Lee and I was with him when I received the call about Ms. Myra. That’s why he is with me. “Mr. Synder also agreed to let him come along. You can’t j
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2140 Buffy Gwake
“How unfortunate.” The man named Professor Wilson scrutinized Kaze and shrugged. As the target of ridicule, Kaze barely felt anything. He simply smiled at Hamlin. Hamlin awkwardly bowed at Kaze. “I’m sorry, Mr. Lee. For Mr. Synder’s safety…” Back on the train, after Kaze left, Hamlin had run all kinds of background checks to find out about Kaze’s true identity. It was to protect Kent, especially after multiple assassination attempts. It was his duty to investigate every person who approached the mayor. Now that Cole exposed it in front of everyone, especially in front of Kaze, Hamlin felt a little awkward. Kaze would never tolerate Cole’s arrogant attitude. “It’s okay. You are just doing your job,” Kaze said to Hamlin. He then looked at Cole and said, “Cole, I prefer the humble and respectful you back on the train. You were arrogant and disrespectful at first but you learned quickly and started to show some respect after I saved Kent.” Cole’s face turned bitter wh
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2141 Benefactor for Life
Kent had a frosty glare at Cole. Myra’s condition was kept a secret, and only a handful of people knew about it. Now that Buffy learned about the condition, she must have learned it from Cole. Cole’s heart skipped a beat. He quickly introduced Professor Wilson to Kent. “Uncle Kent, Myra’s condition is not getting any better, so I took the liberty to tell Buffy about it. I just hope that I can help. “Look, Uncle Kent. Professor Wilson is a psychologist from Kalifornia University of Uleania. He’s well-known in the field. “He came to Arcadia for a symposium and since Buffy knew him, she was able to invite him over to have a look at Myra’s condition. We also paid a hefty price to have him here.” Kalifornia University was a world-renowned institute. Kent was delighted and his grim look softened. He said with gratitude, “Ms. Gwake, thank you for your concern about my daughter. I can’t thank you enough.” No matter what Buffy was after, if she could get a world-renowned psych
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2142 Young Love
If the professor could cure Myra, Cole’s position in Kent’s heart would skyrocket and he would surely rise to prominence in Riverbank. Whatever trouble he got himself into, his uncle would surely cover up for him. Buffy did not say anything but her eyes showed delight. If Professor Wilson could cure Myra, then Kent would be in her debt and she could ask for his help to further expand Gwake Corporation in Riverbank. Only Kaze remained calm and composed. Professor Wilson had not even seen Myra, yet he claimed it was a mental condition. He seemed to have jumped to a conclusion a little too early. “This way please.” Kent was focused on his daughter and did not further comment on anything. He led the way and brought Kaze and Professor Wilson into the mansion. When they went to the second floor, they saw a middle-aged woman in an expensive sleeping robe sitting outside a room, looking pale and dispirited. The woman was Kent’s wife, Jane. Jane’s eyes were glued to the ta
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 2143 Spirited Girl
Professor Wilson was not shy to accept the monetary reward. A million dollars was a decent amount of money even for a world-renowned psychologist like him. Back in Uleania, a talk at the presidential campaign or anything similar would only pay him tens of thousands. “Kaze…” Kent then looked at Kaze. Kaze raised his hand. “I’m okay. I don’t need the money. Let’s just wait for Myra to wake up first.” “Thank you, Kaze.” Kent nodded with gratitude. Cole grunted softly. He believed Kaze was just acting and refused the monetary reward, but he did not refuse the mansion from Hamlin. Buffy frowned in displeasure. She had a feeling that Kaze was trying to make Professor Wilson look bad. Kaze did not make any comments. He went to the parlor, sat down, and enjoyed some tea. The others came over and waited together. “Myra, what’s wrong?” As expected, Myra’s sleep was light. In less than ten minutes, Kent and Jane’s anxious cries could be heard outside the room. The group

Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3740 No Plan
The hostages were locked up in the containers. Some of them were elites in their own field while some were ordinary people with average income, yet all of them got into trouble when they boarded the plane. Most of them could not accept their fate. Yet they dared not defy or resist the mercenaries. When things started to calm down, they broke down in tears, weeping in silence as resentment consumed them. Kaze sat down at a clean corner that allowed him to look outside the window. The window was dirty but at least he could see outside. The space inside the container was filled with people sitting closely, offering comfort to one another. They were aware they were just temporarily safe in this container. No one knew what the mercenaries would do to them at the next moment. “My parents must be worried. I said I would call them when I land but now I can’t even get in touch,” Barney muttered as he sat beside Kaze. He too looked outside the window, his feelings mixed. He watc
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3739 Need A Hero
Kaze thought of what he had overheard in the toilet. If he told the hostages about that, they would probably panic. “It’s nothing. They are just going to separate us into different rooms or containers. They said the buses would be disposed of,” he said. He did not want to reveal too much because it would cause panic. Once the hostages knew their lives were on the line, things might spiral out of control. The mercenaries could kill a few of them to make an example, and none of the hostages would dare to cause problems anymore. Kaze kept it a secret because he wanted to protect the people. “That’s it?” “Is there anything else? How many men are there? What is their plan? Who are they looking for?” “We want to know because we want to survive. This isn't our problem—we just got caught up in it.” The hostages looked at Kaze, their eyes filled with worry. They felt aggrieved because they should not be caught in such a huge problem. “I don’t know either.” No matter how m
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3738 Another Way
“There’s a room there. Get in.” The mercenary pointed his gun at the mother and son, which led them to look at Kaze nervously, seemingly asking for help. “What do you want?” The mother was nervous. She clutched her son’s hand tightly, nearly making him cry, but she reacted quickly enough to cover her son’s mouth to prevent him from doing so. “All women must go into that room. You go in now,” the mercenary explained. He did not want the woman to get the wrong idea. “You people won’t hurt me, right?” the mother asked, worried that she might be ravaged. “We are not into MILF,” said the other mercenary who was escorting Kaze, indirectly assuring the mother. Kaze shot a glance at the mother and nodded at her. “They told us they were going to separate us, so there’s nothing to worry about,” he said, worried that the mother and son would not cooperate. The mother then carried her son and followed the other mercenary into the room. It was called a room but it was actually ju
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3737 Not Afraid of Us?
“Can you make him stop? If the man comes back, we’ll be done for,” someone said. The kid’s crying made everyone anxious. “What can I do? He’s crying because he’s scared. I can’t just stop him.” The mother was afraid as well, and she did not want her son to be taken advantage of. “Calm down. Just don’t alert the men and we’ll be fine,” Miguel said, hoping to ease the situation. “I’ll fight him if he comes in. I believe I can make it,” someone said. Those with an impulsive nature grew restless from being kept on the bus for too long, feeling like livestock being kept in cages. “Shut it. They are coming,” Barney said after a glance outside the window. The other passengers fell silent, sat back down, lowered their heads, and tried their best not to look out the window. The mother quickly hugged her son and covered his mouth to prevent him from crying. Kaze felt peace and quiet once more, even the air felt smoother. He knew the passengers were merely ordinary people and
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3736 Wait to Die
Unfortunately, Leah knew she would not get an answer out of Snow since she was refusing to help. Everything seemed to have changed following her mother’s disappearance. She tried to stay for answers but when security came in, she could not resist them anymore. It was the first time she was escorted out by security guards and it impacted her. She used to be the daughter of the CEO of Northborn Group—everyone respected her. She used to enjoy a privileged status. No matter where she went, she was the star of the event. Yet when her mother disappeared, everything changed. She wanted to look for Kaze but she had just lost the chance. Snow turned her down and gazed at her with contempt and irritation. Leah could not accept the changes but some things felt like they were destined to change. She was forced to leave the branch office but then had no idea where else to go. She felt abandoned by the world. Before this, she could still hope for Kaze’s help, but now she had no
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3735 Can't Find Who You Are Looking For?
Leah went to her mother’s company but did not find her anywhere. Joey was busy working in the CEO’s office. Leah went over and asked, “Joey, where’s my mother? I can’t reach her.” She wanted to know what happened to her mother. “I don’t know about your mother either. We went out together earlier in the day but I don’t know where she went. I can’t get in touch with her.” Joey was so busy that she could not even free herself from the desk to explain to the girl. “Where did she go? How am I supposed to find her?” Leah panicked. If even Joey did not know where her mother went, then something must have happened. A bad feeling rose from her heart. Things just got serious. “I don’t know. Why don’t you ask someone else?” Joey did not have time to deal with the girl. Leah was unfamiliar with Joey’s coldness. Joey had always treated her with kindness and flattery, so the sudden coldness caught her off guard. She felt like something had changed. “Who should I be looking f
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3734 Spent Your Life in Regret
“No! My daughter is still in the hospital!” Katie refused to accept her punishment. She started to regret her decision but it was too late. “Now only you think about your daughter? I guess you are not that foolish, but have you thought about her when you betrayed Chairman Lee? “Don’t worry. Leah knew Chairman Lee personally and we won’t hurt her, but she might not live a good life anymore,” Snow said coldly. She did not want to put the girl in a difficult situation but her life as a princess would come to an end. “You can’t do that!” Katie could not believe Snow would do that. “I bet you never thought of the consequences when you leaked the information. Too bad. You’ve lost.” Snow revealed the truth because she wanted Katie to suffer for the decision she made. Katie would now regret every decision she made because she knew she had jeopardized her daughter’s life. She would feel like a fool. She devoted her life to climbing higher to gain more power but she ignored the
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3733 Relieve of Duty
“I went to a bar to have a drink and I bumped into an informant of the Viper’s Den.” Katie looked helpless as she explained as if everything that had happened was planned out for her, pushing her to the edge step by step. It was a lively night at the bar. The atmosphere was pleasant and most of the guests were having a good time. Katie was a single woman. She needed care and love at times. She was alone when she visited the bar. She started off by ordering some drinks at the counter, waiting for a chance to meet a man who shared the same ideals. A drink or two later, maybe she could get herself a company for the night. As a grown-up woman, she had her desires. It was a way to release her stress. Katie entered the bar in a casual outfit but it did not diminish her elegant demeanor. When she sat down at the counter, a few young men approached her but she was not interested in immature boys. She continued drinking. She looked at the dance floor occasionally, searching for a
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3732 Confess
“Who do you think will believe you?” Arthur frowned. There were too many coincidences that it felt like a giant setup. “I’ve explained what I need to. Don’t interrogate me like I’m a criminal. I am the CEO of the Northborn Group.” Katie left them speechless. She had said the necessary and it was up to them whether they wanted to believe it or not. They did not have the evidence to charge her anyway. “You really think we can’t hold you responsible?” Snow was not really looking for a definite answer. The moment she suspected Katie, whether or not she was truly the traitor, Snow already had the right to hold her accountable. It was necessary to make things clear and it was to find out who Katie leaked Kaze’s information to. “It has come down to this. No matter how you deny it, it’s useless. We already know what you have done and you can’t escape. Even if you don’t want to confess, we can continue the investigation, and we’ll eventually find out the truth. “If you come clean
