Guardian-In-Law Chapter 253 Never-Ending Greed
Mathias waved at his bodyguard, who then pulled out a checkbook and wrote 100 million dollars on it. Mathias signed the check, ripped it out, and held it near the car window. “Take it. You will be the owner of a hundred million dollars. You can cash the check at Industry and Commercial Bank. I’ll call to make the withdrawal happen.” In case Kaze did not get it, Mathias patiently gave him further instructions.“The idiot is lucky. He doesn’t deserve the hundred million. If only we saved Ms. Queen.” Standing not too far away, Samus and Deborah could drool at the amount of money. They wished they could take the check for Kaze. It was as if Kaze hit the jackpot. Kaze did not take the check, though. Instead, he stared coldly at Mathias. “Who wants your money? Don’t get in my way. I’m starting the car.” He knew where Mathias was coming from. Mathias wanted to dismiss him with a lump sum in exchange for saving Sandy. That was the behavior pattern of the rich and powerful; if

“What? Is the amount good enough for you now?” Thinking that Kaze was finally pleased with the money, Mathias said with a smile, “But you need to promise me that we’re even. You can’t go around telling people that you saved a member of the Queen family in Butterworth.” Mathias did not want Kaze to do anything in the Queens’ name that would tarnish their reputation. Kaze smiled. “Mathias Queen, right? Here’s some common sense for you. “Due to the format of Arcadian checks, the maximum amount you can fill is 999,999,999.99 dollars. You can’t sign a check for one billion dollars.” Kaze looked at Mathias as if he was a dummy. Dumbstruck, Mathias turned and asked the bodyguard, “Is that true?” “Indeed, sir.” The bodyguard asked, “Are we still writing the check? I doubt 1 cent makes much difference.” “Like hell we are!” Mathias shouted angrily, his cheeks burned with shame. He was the heir to the Queens of Butterworth. Yet, the son-in-law of some family with a bit of mon
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 255 Rush to the Hospital
“Ah!” Mathias screamed in fear before hopping to the side. Discolored, he looked back and noticed Kaze was still there. The bastard tried to scare him. He was not actually going to run him over. “Can’t take the heat,” Kaze said before rolling the car window up. The silver Quattroporte drove off. “Bastard! Bastard!” Mathias was hopping mad. However, he could not do anything to Kaze. He ranted a little before getting into the car. Soon, the Queen siblings’ convoy left Taurus Automobiles. “Do you think the idiot has lost his mind? He refused the money from Mr. Queen, acting like he couldn’t be bought. All he has done is make Mr. Queen his enemy.” “He had the chance to befriend the Queens, but he didn’t seize it. He’s an idiot.” “I, for one, am happy he’s a dummy. We will be in trouble if he gets in the Queens’ good graces.” Samus, Deborah, and Vincent felt full of themselves and mocked Kaze. They then took off. Outside Taurus Automobiles, Kaze finally met Sky w
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 256 The Car’s Totaled
“Why, Hellen, I’m free to go anywhere I want. Why can’t I be here?” Agnes gave the woman an attitude. Hellen was Agnes’ former colleague when she worked for Lilyrose Wholeness Medical Center. Agnes was involved in an altercation with Hellen and her family at Lily Garden Hotel. “Hmph! You talk like you’ve got it all figured out.” Hellen said sarcastically, “It was quite the stir when you were fired from the center after that medical disaster. Deputy Director Soup just talked to me about it yesterday. I can’t believe you’d show your face here. “If I were you, I’d never step foot into the premises ever. I would go the long way around the medical center, but I guess you have no shame.” The comment hit Agnes’ sore point and color washed off her face. Taking a deep breath, Agnes retaliated, “You’re no better than me. Let’s not forget the time you were hit and kicked out of Lily Garden Hotel. That was humiliating. If I were you, I wouldn’t come back to work.” Hellen scowled.

“You don’t know when to shut up, Kaze,” Agnes stamped her foot and yelled furiously. Kaze would be the death of her. It was bad enough that Hellen’s family showed off their newly bought half-a-million dollar Mercedes Benz and mocked the Quints for their three-hundred-grand Audi A4. Kaze came out of nowhere and explained the Audi A4 was totaled—as if things were not bad enough already. Agnes was tempted to smack the dummy’s head. “Oh, my. The Quints’ only car is wrecked.” Hellen laughed in delight. “I guess it must be inconvenient for you since you can’t go anywhere without a car, Agnes. Tsk, tsk. Poor you.” Agnes scowled without a word. Hellen was right, and Agnes could not refute the fact. The last million in the family was used to pay Larry’s gambling debt, so the Quints had no funds available to get a new car. “What makes you think that we don’t have a car?” Kaze said, “We would need to get a new car since the last one was written off.” “Oh, any cars in parti
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 258 That Sounds Like Kaze
“Who did this? Why did they park inconsiderately and block us in? They must think they are all that to drive a sports car,” Yenny whined loudly. The passersby glanced at the cars and gave her a bewildered look before going on their way. Sam came over for a look and was dumbfounded by his wife’s idiocy. “Stop yelling there. You didn’t park within the lines. I was going to park the car, but you insisted you could do it.” He stopped Yenny. Sam got out of the car and went to get cigarettes, not realizing that his wife was bad at parking. “How could you blame me, Sam? They blocked me in.” Yenny took after her mother’s behavior. Livid, she pinched her husband. “Enough!” Sam shouted, “I said you didn’t park in the box. The cars next to you stayed in their lines. Even if you call the owners here, we’re still in the wrong.” He was speechless. His idiot wife parked across three parking spots, blocking cars on both sides from getting out. They could not get in through the
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 259 Kaze to Provide Care
Kaze thought Agnes did not carry enough money for a consultation at the hospital. Now, he realized that the 20 thousand dollars was for Larry. “I have the twenty thousand as you requested.” Agnes entered the ward and asked with concern, “Are you alright, Larry?” Larry spread his legs like a boss. He scoffed and gave Agnes an attitude. “Is he alright? Does Larry look alright to you?” Naomi shot an angry look at Kaze. “Your useless son-in-law should’ve brought Larry back sooner. He would’ve been battered and bruised.” Kaze saved Larry last night but Naomi was not the least bit grateful. She even complained that Kaze could do better. Agnes remained without a word. Kaze was not going to hold his tongue, though. He replied curtly, “He got off lightly with a beating. He had it coming for gambling. If it wasn’t for me last night, he wouldn't have been beaten to death.” “What are you saying? The nerve of you to say that about my son!” Lance pounded his fist on the bedsi

Last night at the casino, Kaze slapped Larry. Larry could not let go of the grudge. When he was reunited with Lance and Naomi, he could not stop complaining about Kaze’s arrogance and rudeness.Larry proposed that Kaze be his caregiver to insult him. Gritting his teeth, Larry said smugly, “Weren’t you acting like you were all that in front of my parents, Kaze? You can take care of my needs for the next two weeks. You have to do what I tell you.” “Dream on,” Kaze said coldly. He was tempted to whip the boy to shape.“Why don’t you stay here and take care of Larry, Kaze?” Agnes asked, her tone not as commanding as before. She felt bad. However, she had no other choice. It was either Kaze or her. “Hear that, Kaze? Are you going to go against your mother-in-law’s wishes?” Larry smirked. He knew that Kaze was too proud to agree to the job. Nevertheless, Larry knew Kaze had a weak spot for his family. Luckily for the Laimes, they had Agnes in the palm of their han

“I have pointed you in a direction. If you still can’t trust your team, you can go to the Viper’s Den.“There’s one thing, though. Don’t rely too heavily on the Viper’s Den, or your company will be left without secrets.” Kaze’s suggestion gave Snow assurance. She considered tapping into the Viper’s Den’s resources. However, Kaze warned her against excessive dependence. “Why did you say that, Chairman Lee? Will the Viper’s Den stab me in the back?” Surely, the Viper’s Den took orders from Kaze. The Viper’s Den would always be an ally so long as Kaze was the branch leader. “I just don’t want you to put too much faith in others. You find loyalty by developing your own team. Those who revere me will never trust you completely.” Kaze analyzed the situation. Snow ate her supper and looked at Kaze in confusion. “You can only count on the people you win over. You can’t trust anyone else, and that includes me.” Kaze would never hurt Snow. However, he hoped that she would fin
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3721 Time Heals
“As you said, all is in the past. What’s the point of dwelling on it?” Leah perked up. Such was life, but it took her too long to understand the harsh reality. She guessed things were just not meant to be. “I’ll think about what to get Kaze. Rest well. We’ll visit him in a few days.” Taking the matter seriously, Katie wanted to get gifts ready ahead of time to thank Kaze. “Alright. I’ll see what I can do too. I want to be in touch with the outside world. I don’t care what they have to say. This is not my fault. I won’t blame myself.” Leah wanted her phone back to contact her former friends. Ultimately, she needed to move forward instead of backward. She had to face and fight back the rumors with courage. It was the crucial step to kick trauma in the face. The abduction was kept hush-hush for the most part, but Katie’s frantic search for her daughter at the cocktail party did not go unnoticed. Hearing about the incident, the influential people were keen to find out
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3720 Moment’s Gone
“When did Kaze start setting it all up? I get the feeling that everybody played into his hands right from the start, and he had controlled every step of the way.” Leah realized that Kaze was an amazing man. Nothing could go past his eyes. “I don’t know.” Katie feared someone like Kaze. She would not be caught dead near him. Even when grasping the situation, Katie dared not look into Kaze for fear she would be targeted. Katie was careful not to show her face around Kaze. For all she knew, Kaze might get back at her. “But he came to Butterworth alone. We met at the train station, and he helped me out of a bad situation.” Leah felt warm and cozy inside just remembering the events. They did not know each other then. Kaze was kind to help a stranger out. From then on, Kaze could do no wrong in Leah’s eyes. Leah befriended him and found him nice. Her interest in him grew. They also got along well. Her memories of Kaze were sweet. Anyone could hurt her in the world, but
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3719 Never Getting Out
Even though Katie was the CEO of the Northborn Group, many eyed her position. There were too many vying to replace her. Without dedicating herself to her work, Katie risked falling from grace. Katie had been too eager to find success to give her daughter the best life. Leah could not understand the pain Katie had to go through. “I understand it now. I explained the nature of my relationship with Kaze to you, but you just wouldn’t get it.” Leah stubbornly expressed herself in hopes her mother would understand. “I just couldn’t get it through my head that you have grown up. You make an easy target since you just graduated and have not stepped into the real world.” Katie would not always be there for Leah. Hence, Katie did her best to get rid of potential danger. Her overprotectiveness triggered Leah’s defiance. It was Katie’s fault for not realizing it sooner. “I’m not angry with you. I didn’t understand a mother’s good intentions, but I understand now. I will listen to
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3718 For Your Own Good
Leah’s face beamed, but her mother’s words threw her into a daze. In the end, she tried to squeeze a smile to assure her mother. However, Leah could not muster a smile. Those days lingered with her like a recurring bad dream. Whenever she recalled the incident, she felt trapped in that nightmare again. Leah wanted to let those memories fade away, but she just could not do it. She would get startled awake late at night and trace the scars across her skin. During moments like this, she resented Perry. Leah was rather cheerful during the day as if the past was behind her. However, it was simply a way for her to escape the pain. By the way Leah was behaving, Katie instantly regretted the question. She should not have probed. Even if they avoided the elephant in the room, they could pretend like nothing ever happened. Nevertheless, the act of asking brought up unsettling times for Leah. “It’s my fault. I shouldn’t have asked.” Katie gently held Leah, hoping to cast
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3717 Perry’s Fate
When the ambulance door closed shut, Leah wailed once more. The reality of her rescue finally sank in, and she grasped that it was not just a dream. It was a pity that she did not have much time with Kaze. She longed to spend more time with him. “Don’t cry, young lady. You’ll get better soon enough. Don’t worry about the scars on your face. I can administer medicine to help you,” the doctor said while wiping her tears. “Thank you. I’m finally out of the hell hole.” Leah’s worst nightmare would be to be trapped in there forever. Kaze watched as the ambulance disappeared into the night. He then turned to face the villa. “Apprehend everybody in there. Perry should be punished for his crimes.” Kaze had not intended to go after the Duncans, but the family had crossed the line this time. Leah was an adorable and vulnerable woman. She was abused beyond recognition. It never occurred to Kaze that the Duncans could be so cruel. “Perry has passed out in there. Where should
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3716 Rescue
With the secret out in the open, the housekeeper dropped his attitude. He pointed at the basement not too far away. “My employer is in there.” The housekeeper grimaced and kept his head down. Kaze laughed. Unaware of his impending doom, Perry was still living it up. It was absurd. Perry was playing with fire by hurting Leah. “About time you wise up.” Arthur smiled and patted the housekeeper’s face. He opened the door to the basement. Kaze walked to the bar counter and picked up the best bottle of champagne there. He fiddled with the bottle before carrying it to the basement. The other Viper’s Den members followed him. Kaze took a stride down the steps, to the basement. The noisy music was blasting before they reached the entry. Kaze was filled with a mix of emotions. Nevertheless, he said nothing. He opened the door and walked in. The light in the basement was bright, making everything perfectly clear. However, the people inside were not bothered by the
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3715 The Duncans Mean Squat
“You know him. It’s Perry Duncan, Leah’s ex-boyfriend.” Snow did not see the point of hiding the truth, so she laid everything out. “Leah must be feeling foul because she was unaware that she was being stalked. By the time she realized what was going on, she was taken into a vehicle. “We spotted the vehicle they departed in from the surveillance footage. They headed to the mountain up north.” Snow had a general idea of the location. “I got Arthur on the job. He’s putting up a team from the Viper’s Den.” Snow was uncertain of Kaze’s stance toward Leah, but now that she was made aware of the situation, the least she could do was help. Katie belonged to the Viper’s Den, so Snow was lending a hand to a friend in business. “Thank you. Please save my daughter.” Katie was nervous. The Viper’s Den was the people she could count on. “Arthur is good, but he’s slow. I’ll do it,” Kaze said. The whole thing was unrelated to him. Kaze was well within his right to stand on the si
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3714 Abduction for Ransom
Even so, Elsie was out to get Leah. Elsie could pick up on Perry’s delight when she took a swing at Leah. Poor Elsie was just trying to survive by catering to others. People like her learned to pick up social cues and read body language to please customers for money in return. Their income would double if their customers were happy. Leah was the obstacle. If the women could not get rid of her, they would lose their profit. They had no hard feelings for Leah, but they stood on opposing ends. “You should be fawning over Mr. Duncan, not begging me,” Elsie said while grabbing Leah’s hair to pull her up. Leah snatched Elsie’s wrist to try and break free. “Let me go. I never did anything to you.” Leah was no doormat. She did not want to cross these people or get involved with them. She still hoped that by waiting here, her prince would arrive to save her. However, all she got was a cruel beating, and she had enough. “This isn’t my fault. Blame Mr. Duncan for your cir
