Chapter 218 Demanding Money

Penulis: Five Generals
“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

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 220 The Car Was Stolen

    “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

    “You can bring Larry back!?” Lance and Naomi looked at Kaze, skeptical. They looked down on him from the bottom of their hearts. Even though Larry had no academic credits or job, they would never make him marry into a family for money. Kaze ignored the two of them. He offered to bring Larry back because Larry was held together with Darcy’s car and that was what he wanted to bring back. If not for the car, he would not care if Larry died. Darcy shook her head. “Kaze, stop fooling around. The casino bosses are not someone you can mess with. They have a lot of men and it’s too dangerous. I don’t want you to go.” She insisted on calling Miru for help. Kaze felt comforted knowing that Darcy worried about him. He said, “Darcy, don’t worry. I’m just going to talk to the casino boss and negotiate with him. Maybe I can get your car back. If things go south, we’ll see what we can do.” Darcy looked at him, still worried. After some serious consideration, she sighed and said, “Fine

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 223 Boastful

    Thugs and kingpins of the underworld—one could tell how much of a difference between the two monikers. Hades was Cronus’ nephew and the owner of the casino. Darcy had goosebumps when she learned about Hades and Cronus. She regretted it. She should not have allowed Kaze to go to Hades’ casino. They could not afford to mess with someone like Hades. “Sky, call Kaze right away and tell him to come back! Don’t let him go to the casino!” Darcy said to Sky. Sky heard Darcy’s conversation with Miru as he was just beside her. Even though he had seen how powerful Kaze was in the past few days and he believed Kaze was almighty, he was also worried when he saw the look on Darcy’s face. He called Kaze immediately, but the call could not get through. “He’s on a call. I can’t get through.” “Again! Call again!” Darcy then went back on the call with Miru and asked, “Miru, can you get in contact with this Hades? We’ll give him two million for Larry. If Kaze is there, tell him not t

    “Sigh. I thought I had a powerful brother-in-law. It seems like I was overthinking…” Sky walked away with a disappointed look. Darcy was both amused and upset by Sky’s disappointment. Though her worries for Kaze remained. She hoped Miru could settle the matter before Kaze arrived at the casino. On the other hand, Kaze arrived at a hotel with Lance and Naomi. “Hades told us to come here for the manager.” Lance pointed at the hotel before glancing at Kaze. “Hey, useless shit, can you really bring Larry back?” “If you continue to speak to me with that mouth, your son will die inside,” Kaze said coldly. Lance and Naomi were furious. Agnes and her family were nothing but tools to extort money and they had gotten used to being treated like kings. Yet as Agnes’ son-in-law, Kaze did not treat the Laime couple with respect. However, the ferocity Kaze showed back at Horizon Mirror deterred Lance and forced him to silence himself. Naomi grumbled, “Then what are you doing

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 225 Dan Niners is Bullshit

    “Kaze, I thought you got someone useful to help but he's useless bullshit as well!” “He looks ferocious. He might be able to scare normal people like us but he’s useless against Hades!” Lance and Naomi immediately jumped in and mocked Dan after seeing his failure. They were frightened by Dan and they thought the man was someone powerful. However, a few minutes later, Dan came running out. Dan slapped himself again when Lance and Naomi mocked him. He was fine with the humiliation but he did not want to embarrass Kaze. It would be a great sin if he did. He knelt on the ground and said, “Master Lee, I’ll call all my men here and make Hades pay for what he had done!” “Shut up you! All you know is brag!” Naomi looked askance at Dan. She then looked at Kaze and said, “Tell Darcy to pay the two million to get Larry back! If anything happens to Larry, I’ll make your family pay!” “Yeah! Forget about the lousy car! Larry must be fine! Call your wife immediately!” Lance berate

    Miru? The casino players looked confused. Someone said hesitantly, “Is she the goddaughter of Alan who owns Lefteria Group?” Woah! The casino erupted in a commotion.Lefteria Group and Alan were mentioned a lot. Alan had been the godfather of Lilyrose underworld after all. The group had left behind its criminal roots and become a legitimate business empire in Lilyrose.“That’s right. That’s her.” Tim said in chuckles, “The bitch thinks she’s all that. She called to get my boss to return the car. She and Dan upset my boss, so he trashed the car.” There was an uproar all around. Hades was something else to disregard Dan and Lefteria Group. Many were unaware of Hades’ origins. However, that did not stop them from revering him. Hades enjoyed being the center of attention. Still, he remained nonchalant on the surface. “Bottom line, my connections in Lilyrose run deep enough to back the casino up. No one, regardless of their legal or illegal standing, will dare to cause

    “Just tell me what you need, Arthur. You wouldn’t be calling unless you have received orders.” Philip was surprised to get a call from Arthur. Though they were acquainted, they had only communicated because of work. “We have just left Rising Sun. Don’t approve the films for now.” Arthur was blunt. “I can do that, but can I ask why?” Philip was caught in a dilemma because he had just promised Jet to release the films. Philip needed to know if the orders to delay came from a high power who could cover his ass. “Since you got a call from me, you should know that there are eyes on Jet. “You should know what you can and cannot say. Otherwise, you never know when you’re going to lose your job.” Arthur threatened. Philip was reluctant. He accepted Jet’s payment, and now he had to go back on his word. Nevertheless, Arthur was part of the Viper’s Den, and his status was rather unique. Arthur provided services to confidential individuals. These individuals were elites among t

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 3563 Trigger

    A balanced, profitable dynamic had been developed among the ports in Butterworth. Jet spotted his chance in the lucrative port business. He covertly took out some money to invest in a dying port. The port was situated in a more remote area. Some businesspeople favored more accessible ports. This drove shippers away from the dying port. Jet snagged the steal and improved the logistics and facilities around the area. The port was up and running again. Business at the port was decent enough. As the Frosts would run their business through the port, the local economy took off too. It was a good thing. However, Jet set his sights on several residential buildings around the area. He needed space to accommodate containers. The land was required to make business at the port more profitable. This triggered a whole new thing. Jet could spend some money to buy the residents out of their homes. However, the residents preferred to stay put in their long-time homes. No a

    “I’ll keep the bank cards for now. I’ll talk to our superiors and give you a decision. Since the man said that the cards are meant for us, they won’t be going anywhere.” Knox had no idea who Kaze was, but he knew Arthur was with the Viper’s Den. Arthur must be someone from high places. Eli soon put the little incident behind him. He got a call from Aloysius yesterday and was made aware of Jet’s plans. The films had been put on hold for far too long, and the people above Eli were anxious to get things moving. Though Eli was surprised by the review board’s visit, everything was still in his control. Eli left the matter at that without reporting the incident to the higher-ups. The flashy, red car sped along the road. Arthur kept looking back at Kaze, eager to find out about the next plan. Arthur brought Kaze out today to witness how Eli and his team operated. As it happened, Eli adopted such a shallow ploy. Arthur was not surprised, though. Eli’s methods were common.

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 3561 Reconciliation

    Eli dined offhandedly as if he had taken hold of the group. His words were layered with threat. “What? Are you trying to replace us?” Knox asked in disbelief. “I don’t have that power, but the investor does. I heard that he enjoyed dinner with your superiors. I’m sure the project will get the green light in no time. “Even if you didn’t approach me today, my team and I would have invited you out for a get-together.” Eli knew when to back down, easing the tension in the air. It was another type of reconciliation. Eli needed to go through the review board to get the rights to air the films. The carrot-and-stick approach was the best way forward. Kaze was surprised by the sophistication of Eli’s tactics. Still, he believed he had come to the right place. Sure enough, Jet would stop at nothing to get what he wanted. Surely, he was bound to leave loose ends. Nevertheless, he probably did not care. Arthur cocked his head back to look at Kaze. Kaze grinned, unbothered

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 3560 Bring Something Back

    The purpose of the visit was to inform Rising Sun that the films did not make the cut. Since Rising Sun would not make the necessary amendments, the project would come to a halt. “Please, don’t. Since we are all here, we should talk it out.” It took Eli quite some effort to get the group to the hotel. Eli had plans to please the crowd, so he could not let them leave just yet. This went beyond getting the green light for the films. Eli needed to make the group happy. “There is nothing more to talk about. We can’t proceed unless you make the changes.” There was no way around it. Since Rising Sun refused to make the right amendments, and Knox had orders about putting a hold on Rising Sun’s films, that was one less problem for Knox to deal with. Eli could not let the group walk out on him. Hence, he quickly sent people in. Several thinly clad women entered, each holding a small bag. Despite the weightlessness, the bag appeared to be carrying something of substance. “You

    For that reason, Rising Sun’s film productions were not cleared to be aired. “I told you the reason. The investor supplied us with the scripts, and we were told to base our productions on the scripts. Our hands are tied.”Eli would have made the amendments if he could. He knew where the problem lay. However, the company had to take the investor’s perspective into consideration. In the end, the films were yet to be approved for release. “I guess you won’t get the permission to air them then.” Knox was surprised that Rising Sun would not budge on the matter. Nevertheless, Knox and his team were not there to give the all-clear or talk some sense into Rising Sun. Knox and his team could care less about what Eli had to say. “We’re serious about getting the approval. “I’m sorry that we aren’t a better host for your visit today. Why don’t we move to the nearby hotel for a talk?” With the review board making an appearance, Eli knew there was still hope. If Eli did not grab

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 3558 Green Light

    Arthur chuckled, his smile carrying a touch of sleaziness. “Oh, I see.” A realization dawned on Kaze. “Are you with quality control?” Several individuals in dark blue suits approached. The men and women carried files and documents. Kaze nodded without a word. “We are just here to announce the results. We shouldn’t be long.” Arthur came forward to engage with them. The group was likely given the heads-up as they had the right number of people. They swaggered into Rising Sun’s building. The general manager straightened up his tie in a fluster and walked out. None of the film productions made the cut yet, and the delay was costing the company money by the day. At this rate, the project would go down under. Eli, the general manager, rushed to the entrance upon learning the news. The review team was there to do one final check. The films would get the green light if the board found that everything was up to par. The head office would stop putting pressure on

    Given Kaze’s status, Alfonso knew better than to have him waiting under the hot sun. Of course, he would send his people to be on standby for Kaze’s arrival. Peter only came to the rescue when Kaze was pestered by some street gang. Alfonso’s omission of Kaze’s identity led to this hiccup. Kaze did not care one bit about the incident. Heck, he did not even bring it up. Arthur straightened his back nervously, becoming even more cautious behind the wheel. “You knew, but why didn’t you say anything, Mr. Lee? You didn’t even tell on us.” Arthur could not understand why. However, he had more respect for the man. “I didn’t see a point. You’ll learn what happens when you displease me, so I won’t bother telling you now.” Kaze was mild-mannered as ever. He spoke softly without a hint of anger. All the more Arthur revered him. “Mr. Lee, we didn’t do our jobs right. We didn’t know who you were.“But my duty is to protect you in the dark. “We saw you getting out of the train

  • Guardian-In-Law   Chapter 3556 Rising Sun

    “Rising Sun is a media company. Several of their films are about to be released. They are trying to get them approved to air due to some censorship issues.” Arthur took out a document. “Are there any issues with the films? Why aren’t they approved yet?” Kaze asked curiously. Kaze had no idea. “There are some issues. They aren’t fit to be aired. “Typically, there aren’t a lot of restrictions for film productions so long as the themes aren’t sensitive topics. “But these films featured altered history. The company has been asked multiple times to make revisions, but the films still don’t make the cut.” The Viper’s Den’s members were not privy to the information. The Frosts were insignificant. Kaze was after the Frosts. Otherwise, the Viper’s Den would not waste its resources on a mere film production company. Jet’s investment of nearly ten million bucks in Rising Sun caught the Viper’s Den’s attention. The delayed approval of the films would be catastrophic to the in
