Kaze believed the fugitives with blood on their hands were better off dead. It was a waste of resources to lock them behind bars. Getting the message, Snow gave Don a call. Kaze closed his eyes for a rest. “We’ve arrived at Benedict’s home, Mr. Chairman.”Not too long later, Snow whispered to Kaze. Benedict lived in a 30-million-dollar villa. He was the deputy director of the medical center. He earned quite a lot managing the logistics and procurement. Kaze furrowed his brows the moment he got out of the car. Something was off. Still, it did not bother him. He strolled into the villa. Snow stayed behind him. The living room was filled with packed suitcases. Benedict must be selling the property to pay off his debt to Hades. His wife and kids were not around. It was just him. “Why are you here, Kaze?” The sight of Kaze washed the color off Benedict’s face. Benedict was surprised that Kaze made the personal trip over. Kaze walked over and sat on the sofa be
Benedict trembled in fear and excitement. The question of how Kaze had discovered the five assassins was pushed to the back of his mind.“I told you that you were asking for it, Kaze, but you didn’t believe me.” Folding his arms, Benedict looked arrogantly at Kaze. “You’re an idiot. You think you have the world beneath your feet just because you can fight. The nerve of you to give me crap at my own home.” Benedict pointed at Snow behind Kaze. “Is she your wife, Darcy? Hehe. If your wife spends the night with me, I might make your death a little less painful.” “Fuck off!” Snow scowled. Kaze lifted his chin, his gaze ruthless. Benedict and the five assassins could not look him in the eye. Even though the assassins had killed many, they had never seen such terrifying eyes. They could see hell in his eyes. The weight of his murderous intent hung heavy in the air. The assassins felt chills up their spine. “Kill him!” The female assassin was the first to succumb to
“What’s happening?” Terrified, Benedict shivered on the ground. He had no idea what was going on. Kaze and Snow watched with composure as the scene unfolded. No one would have thought that Kaze and Snow masterminded the massacre. The two dozen fugitives somehow escaped, barged into Benedict’s villa, and encountered the assassins at the right moment. Both parties worked for Cronus, but they did not know each other. The fugitives on the run wanted hostages to negotiate with the police. Those who did not make good hostages should be killed. However, the fugitives underestimated the assassins. The assassins had been trained to kill. Despite being outnumbered, they were highly skilled compared to the fugitives. With each swing of their blades, a fugitive collapsed in his own blood. Still, the fugitives were undeterred in the face of blood. Their companions’ death did not slow them down. In fact, they were thrilled to kill. The fugitives managed to wound and eventually
Every little thing that happened to Darcy’s family had something to do with Kaze. At the time, Quintessential Group held sway in Lilyrose with ambitions to extend their reach into Sunrise. It would not have taken long for Hector to propel the family into the orbit of multibillionaires.Kaze had confessed his feelings to Darcy then. Those who had eyes on Kaze would not allow him to rise back to power through the Quints. A single command unleashed a coordinated assault from powerhouses like the Sunrise Lees, leaving the Quints and their family business devastated.Hector met with a car crash, and Agnes was fired. The family of four, who were living the dream, fell into an abyss. “Did you get it on tape, Snow?” Kaze asked without looking back. Snow approached and showed the phone to Kaze. It was a video of Benedict confessing. Benedict shook and pleaded, “Don’t tell the Goldings that I told you when you seek them out for vengeance, Kaze.” If the Goldings were to find o
Cronus went straight back to bed.He had been through a lot as a prominent underworld kingpin for two decades. The incident was no reason to lose himself yet. Despite what had happened, he could still have a good night’s sleep. However, the same could not be said for the top three families. They had received two pieces of bad news. Angel dropped a message that the Novoelite Alliance was closing in on them, but they did not feel the strain. The other piece of news drove the family heads to call for an emergency meeting at the Chapmans’ residence. “Edward, Flint, I found my daughter.” Belarus dove straight to the point when the two family heads hurried over. “Where?” Edward and Flint looked at him. Belarus said solemnly, “Tiffany took Lilyrose Strategic Department Logistic Division’s Commissioner Renslayer to Springvile District to choose a mansion. Commissioner Renslayer fancied the one resided by James’ family two years ago. “Tiffany wanted to procure mansion No. 9
“What? One billion dollars for an invite? That’s daylight robbery.” Belarus was furious when Flint relayed the price. Even though Albert was the chief commander of the State Strategic Department, an invitation to attend his ceremony should not cost that much. Flint uttered, “I heard Albert trained under the God of War. He longed for an assignment from the God of War himself. I’m confident the God of War will be there.”“Seriously?” Edward had his doubts. “Even if the God of War is attending, one billion dollars for an invite is ridiculous. Maybe it’s a special price to scam us out of our money.” “Even if it is, I’m paying up.” Belarus interrupted him. “My family will be attending the ceremony. I don’t care if the money is for the God of War or Albert, I’m paying the one billion dollars. The things they can offer me in return outweigh the cost.” “That’s right. My family will be attending too.” Belarus managed to convince Flint. Edward let out a wry smile. “We are in t
It was Kaze’s idea to raise the price to one billion dollars per invitation to the ceremony. Kaze heard Tiffany and Martin talking at mansion No. 9 yesterday. He learned that the top three families wanted to befriend Albert through the ceremony. They wanted to utilize their connection with Albert to confront Kaze. It was amusing. Kaze decided to give the top three families what they wanted and so much more. The families’ wealth was stolen anyway. It was dirty money. Kaze and Draco chatted. Darcy had her usual briefing at Quintessential Group office building, listening to her department heads’ reports. “Presently, the group’s focus is on the Passion Fragrance project. All the preparations for the pre-sale are completed, and we are scheduled to open for pre-sale the day after tomorrow.“The 2-billion-dollar investment poured into the group enabled a bigger budget in marketing. With our solid relationships with the banks, we are starting to see a positive lift since the a
After taking control, Darcy gained more confidence. Her words sounded more dignified than before. Samus’ heart skipped a beat as he was frightened. Deborah had her hands curled around Vincent’s arm as she strutted over. “Darcy, you are in big trouble. Do you know what you have done? No one can save you this time.” “Enlighten me please, what did I do wrong?” Darcy sneered. She knew Samus and Deborah well enough to know they must possess some evidence to be this arrogant. “You will find out soon,” Vincent said coldly. Then, hurried footsteps came from the corridor and a group of uniformed men entered. The leader was a man in his early thirties. He scanned the room and ultimately locked his gaze on Darcy. “Darcy Quint? I am Han Feyan of the State Economic Investigation Division and we are currently investigating a case of business fraud. Please cooperate.” All the executives in the meeting room were shocked. The State Economic Investigation Division officers caused an
