Celine told the incident at Lily Garden Hotel. “He had me and my classmates fooled in the beginning, but I caught on later. He’s too young to be high up in military service.“Thomas’ dad, the manager of Lily Garden Hotel, is an idiot to be deceived by such crude lies. “I called to sound Sky out last night. He must know that he couldn’t keep up with the lies anymore, so he came clean.” Celine tried her best to show Samus that she was smart. She believed that since Samus came from a rich and powerful family, he must prefer women who were smart and beautiful. Celine wanted to show that she was not some eye candy. Even though Sky told her the truth, Celine made it sound like she saw through the deception. Samus complimented her, “We wouldn’t have known if you didn’t tell us, Celine. The dummy even pretended to be the owner of Lily Garden Hotel. You were intelligent to see through him.”“He’s a con artist. He has caused us nothing but problems.” “He’s a nobody in our family
“Hahaha!” Samus and the others burst out laughing. “Who do you think you are, Kaze? Are you trying to take the car from me? Dream on!” “It’s not like he can afford it even if he takes the car from you. He was so embarrassed by what he said, so he spoke without thinking.” The party threw sarcastic remarks at Kaze. They were pleased to see Kaze make a fool of himself. “Stop it, Kaze. Come on. Let’s just leave.Sky pulled Kaze, but the latter would not budge. “You are shameless. Even when we humiliate you, you still refuse to leave.” Celine scoffed. It was bad enough that Sky’s family had no money, but he was related to a disgrace of a brother-in-law too. Celine was relieved that she did not date Sky, or she would end up the laughingstock. Samus was a better choice anyway. She clung tightly to Samus’ arm. “You don’t know him well enough, Celine. He’s shameless to mooch off the Quints.” Deborah folded her arms and sneered at Kaze. “I reserved a Maserati Quattroport
The security guards were hesitant. The shop attendant said, “Don't just stand there. That's Vincent from the Hanser family. Just do what he says. He’ll protect you from any consequences.” Oh. He was Vincent Hanser. They could do no wrong by getting in Vincent’s good graces. The two security guards whipped out their batons and lunged at Kaze. Sky turned white as a sheet. “Stop!” An angry voice came from behind everybody. The two security guards shuddered in fear at the voice. With their batons hanging in the air, they froze. The others turned their heads to the source of the voice. A plump middle-aged man in a suit approached in rage. “Mr. Dot!” the shop attendant cried. William Dot asked sternly, “What are you doing? Why is my security team hitting a customer?” The shop attendant made a wry face while thinking of an excuse. Kaze uttered curtly, “Mr. Dot, right? Is this how you treat customers? I expect a satisfactory answer from you.” “Sir, I apologize fo
The voice was icy. Tension rose in the showroom. Everybody looked up in shock. A slender man with menacing eyes turned up at the door. His face bore a faint bruise. Kaze was not surprised to see the man. He said indifferently, “If you were late another minute, I would’ve trashed Taurus Automobiles, Hunter.” Hunter was speechless, remembering the event that took place last night. He nodded at Kaze to express his apology before taking large strides over. “Is this your backup, Kaze?” Samus and the others smirked at Kaze, not taking Hunter seriously. An ingratiating voice came from behind. “Oh, Mr. Hunter, sir. What brings you here?” Shuddering at the sight of Hunter, William rushed to greet him. Hunter, the general manager of Taurus Automobiles, held a higher post than a showroom manager. William was more terrified that Hunter worked for Cronus. A man of his stature had only heard rumors of Cronus, the big boss of Taurus Automobiles.As Hunter approached Willi
The slap left Vincent dumbfounded. The others were stunned too. Vincent introduced himself, saying that he was a member of the Hansers, a prestigious family. Why did Hunter hit him? “I don’t think I have offended you, sir. Why did you attack me?” Dumbstruck, Hunter covered his face and glared at Hunter angrily. Hunter scoffed. “You didn’t offend me, but you crossed K.” “Kaze?” Vincent stared at Kaze in disbelief. Hunter humiliated him in public with a slap for dissing Kaze. It did not make sense. It was no secret that Kaze was a dimwit and a liar. Vincent grimaced and asked angrily, “Are you fooled by the idiot, sir?” “That’s right, sir. The dummy is the son-in-law of our family. He loves to impersonate important people to scam others. Don’t be fooled by him!” “He pretended to be a military commander, but we saw through him.” Deborah, Samus, and Celine backed Vincent up. They taunted Kaze moments ago. A heavyweight like Hunter arrived on the scene and too
“No, no. No problem at all. The car belongs to Sky.” Samus’ heart ached when he said that. Kaze said, “I want to buy my wife a Maserati Quattroporte.” “No problem.” Hunter pulled out his phone to call the manager of the Maserati showroom next door. Stuart the manager rushed over and was in a dilemma by the request. “We only have one Maserati Quattroporte available for collection now, and Ms. Deborah Quint has reserved it. She will be collecting the car today. Oh, there you are, Ms. Quint.” He spotted Deborah in the crowd. Deborah was about to speak when Kaze cut her off. “I don’t care who reserved the car, but it is now mine. I’m taking it with me,” Kaze said sternly. “I can’t believe you’re taking my car, Kaze,” Deborah yelled angrily. Kaze smiled. “That’s right. I’m taking your car. What are you going to do about it?” “Uh, you. Don’t push it, Kaze!” Deborah was livid. Hunter flicked his arm at Stuart. “The car is now Ms. Quint’s, but I’m talking about Darcy
Kaze’s slap snapped Deborah out of an angry trance. She covered her face and glared at Kaze with gritted teeth. “Don’t celebrate too soon, Kaze. Your wife is about to get it—” “Shut up, Deborah!” Vincent scowled and interrupted her. Not too long ago, Vincent and Rudy’s family conspired with Liam to oust Darcy from Quintessential Group.After days of searching, the Hansers finally located Jean’s hiding place. They had sent men to fetch the woman. With Jean back, Darcy would be kicked out of Quintessential Group. The Hansers would take over the group through Rudy’s family. Deborah was an idiot to nearly let slip this crucial information. Their efforts would be for nothing if Darcy braced herself for the takeover. “What are you plotting against my wife again?” Although Deborah did not reveal much, Kaze could tell something was amiss from Vincent’s reaction. Flustered, Deborah said angrily, “What are you talking about? I’m saying that your wife will get what’s coming
Kaze was not keen on associating with Celine. Despite her age, she was rather manipulative. As color drained from her face, Celine walked away grimacingly. Kaze looked at Celine’s back and said indifferently, “You should stay away from Celine, Sky. You’re a simple guy. You might get taken advantage of without knowing it.” “Oh. Got it, Kaze.” Sky nodded cluelessly. He had utmost trust in Kaze, so he would do no wrong by taking his advice. Celine’s eyes flickered with menace when she heard the comment. Kaze wanted to drive away with Sky without any intention of paying. Hunter promised to compensate him last night. “Someone would like to see you for a talk, K. Can you come with me?” Hunter asked. Kaze was not in a hurry to give his word. He asked, “Who is it?” “Just a veteran in the business. He’s waiting for you.” Kaze eyed Hunter, who seemed suspicious. He wanted to see what the man was up to. “Alright. I’ll meet him.” Kaze patted Sky’s shoulder. “Go and take y
