Just as the thought flashed in Leron’s mind, he surprisingly found out that the bullet that he fired flew past Kaze by millimeters. He was millimeters away from hitting his target but at such a high-level fight as this, the slightest mistake would cause a dire result. His shot missed! He failed at the brink of success! He was furious! He adjusted his aim again, but before he could lock onto his target, Kaze appeared before him like a ghost. “Leron, you are considered one of the best out there since you can fire two shots while facing me, but do you think I will let you fire a third shot?” Before his voice even subsided, Kaze dished out a powerful kick. Bang! Leron was still shocked by Kaze’s ghastly speed and could not react in time. The kick landed directly on his stomach. His face twisted in pain, his body crooked by the kick, and he was sent flying with blood gushing from his mouth. He crashed on the floor, causing a slight tremble upon impact. Kaze stood still a
Slap! A powerful slap suddenly landed on Leron’s face, shoving the words back into his throat. He was sent hurtling toward the wall, crashing and embedding himself into it, leaving a massive crater in the process. “That’s it for today. He’s a guy with a gun, not someone who trained physically. If I continue the demonstration, he’ll be slapped to death. “Besides, I promised to spare his life since he gave me face,” Kaze said with a sigh and slight regret. Hannah was a talented person and he wanted to raise her properly. After all, he also had a heart for sharing and teaching, and if he could raise a powerful disciple, he would feel accomplished too. However, it felt more like an insult to Leron. Kaze spared him because Kaze did not want to slap him to death? Splat! Leron spat a mouthful of blood and then struggled to push himself out of the massive hole. He clenched his bloody teeth and bellowed, “Kaze Lee, do you think I’ll thank you because you let me live? You can
Leron yelled through gritted teeth, “Kill me if you have the balls. You can forget extracting any information from me, Lee!” “Crack!” Kaze stomped on Leron’s left hand. Despite breaking out in a cold sweat, Leron would not relent. With both arms broken, Leron was incapacitated, so Kaze waved at Hannah. “Get him transported to the hospital. Treat his hands. “Incapacitate these people on the floor and deliver them to Casius. Tell him that you admire Leron, so here he is. “But he better take good care of Leron’s family. “If anything happens to Leron’s family, Casius will be the one to pay.” Lying on the floor, Leron paused and shouted angrily, “You’re vile, Lee! How dare you drive a wedge between me and Casius!” “Call me vile.” Kaze smiled offhandedly. “Your friendship should be a two-way street. “Aren’t you loyal and devoted to Casius?“Why don’t you take this chance to see if Casius is worth your commitment? “Don’t worry about your family. I’ll make sure Hannah h
“Go on then.” Kaze waved his arm and looked at Dayton with a pretentious smile. “Are you ordering takeout with us, or are you going for your favorite lavish dinner?” Dayton had a bad feeling. His blood ran cold as Kaze’s ruthless method of setting Leron straight came to mind. “Takeout, it is.“No lavish dinner is better than your takeout, Kaze. “I didn’t get it before, but it’s clear to me now. Buffy knows what’s best for herself. She made the best decision by going with you.“I’m trash compared to you.“No, I mean. I can’t compare to you at all.” With Dayton backing down, Buffy and his sidekicks made strange faces. Dayton was not the arrogant and badass man they knew. He was not the proud student of the Viper’s Den chief branch at all. Dayton seemed to have lost his spine. He was afraid of Kaze, scared of his ways. Just moments ago, Dayton acted high and mighty in front of Kaze. Now that Dayton thought about it, he wished he could have done better then. It
Seeing through Dayton, Kaze said with a fake smile, “You aren’t much of a fighter, but your mentor is Alfonso, the ex-branch chief of the Viper’s Den Butterworth branch.“His reputation can be intimidating.” Dayton chuckled dryly. Kaze was rather blunt.His words were nowhere hurtful, but the insult was clear. Kaze said, “I can forget about the past if you stay by Buffy’s side for a while.” As the conflict over the South River State branch escalated, Jude and Casius would only go to greater extremes. Kaze understood that Buffy would only be in danger until he got rid of them both for good. However, Kaze had other things to worry about. Hannah and Collier had to be kept on their toes for any attack. Hence, Dayton would have to protect Buffy. Dayton’s heart sank. So there was a reason why Kaze had not taken any action against him. Gritting his teeth, Dayton replied, “I will do everything in my power to keep Buffy from harm.“Rest assured, Kaze. They have to go throug
The beautiful woman was Stacey, Draig’s friend. She sized Kaze up in an unfriendly way. She quickly lost interest in Kaze. Kaze was plain and boring, standing next to Draig, who always stood out. Kaze was not worth Stacey’s time. Noticing the disdain from Stacey, Kaze did not take the offense to heart and said indifferently, “I’m here for Snow.” “Who do you think you are? You can’t meet Ms. Frost just because you want to.” Stacey blocked the door and said unhappily, “Just leave. Draig and I won’t let any riff-raff into the room. Hey! What gives!” She burst out angrily, raising his arm to pull a punch at Kaze. “Smack!” The air crackled when the blows met. With a scowl, Stacey lifted her knee to knee Kaze in the groin. Stacey was going in for the kill. Without looking at the incoming attack, Kaze unfurled his fingers. He flicked Stacey right in the palm. “Clomp! Clomp!” Stacey fell back and rammed onto the shut door in the back wide open. “Not bad. You’re all
Kaze smiled. “Don’t be a stranger to me. If they are too much for you to put up with, just tell them to leave. I can get you someone else. “But I get it. Those with talent can be proud.” Kaze walked into the ward and glanced at Bass, who was unconscious in bed. Snow said, “Bass had surgery to remove the bullet. He should be fine, but recovery will take some time since he is advanced in age.” “Bass is devoted to you and Mrs. Frost. You should stay here and take care of him. This seems like a nice place. It won’t be different to living in a hotel.” Kaze nodded. So as not to disturb Bass, he and Snow closed the bedroom door and took their conversation in the living room.St. Mary’s was a well-known private hospital in Riverbank. With its advanced medical care, the center attracted many powerful and wealthy individuals for treatment and health services. Bass was put up in a ward that was no different from the presidential suite of a five-star hotel. “Any word from Jet?” Kaze
Draig pointed at Kaze. “I’m warning you. I don’t care if you’re the chairman or president. I’ll take away your manhood if you don’t get your filthy hands off Ms. Frost.”He stared icily at Kaze, his gaze reeking of hostility. Standing at the door, Stacey frowned and looked at Snow unhappily. Stacey understood that Draig was blown away by Snow’s beauty and demeanor when they first met at the hospital. Since Kaze was special to Snow, Stacey went to Draig to let him know that Snow had feelings for Kaze. Stacey’s motive was for Draig to give up on Snow. To her dismay, instead of backing down, Draig stormed into the ward. Draig was livid to find Kaze and Snow behaving rather intimately. Stacey, who always had a soft spot for Draig, was upset. Meanwhile, Kaze met Draig’s intimidating eyes with a hint of amusement. He understood where Draig was coming from. Snow was a charming woman. With his heart belonging to Snow now, Draig made quite an embarrassing scene. Frustrated,
