Even though Jean’s case had been solved, Darcy’s case with Lilyrose Bank was still ongoing. Liben Radar and the other executives sued Kaze for intentional harm and the case had been filed. It could not just go away like nothing happened. Fortunately, Kaze already had a solution to that. Ned was then brought out of the room. The moment he saw Kaze, he bowed and said, “Mr. Lee, I’ve confessed everything that I have done. I hope I’ve met your expectations.” From the day Kaze wreaked havoc at the Housing Department, Johnson had found out about the Hanser family’s plan from Ned. Johnson resented the Hanser family for using his nephew as a bullet to hurt others. He had been waiting for a chance to take revenge on the Hanser family. He told Ned to hold the evidence and even let the police search for Jean while he visited her house to talk to her parents. When the Hanser family found out that the police were looking for Jean, they got anxious and decided to get Jean back to m
“Mr. Lee, Jean Lander confessed everything. The Hanser family instigated her to frame Ms. Darcy Quint. We will proceed to arrest the relevant members of the Hanser family and provide a follow-up to the case,” Han said before Kaze left with Darcy. Ned’s confession devastated Jean. She spilled the beans right after Kaze and Darcy left. What happened was actually quite simple. After the Hanser family located her, they used her family against her and tempted her with promising rewards for her to frame Darcy. The invoice and documents were all forged by Rudy and his family. The person responsible for the scheme was Bronik Hanser, Vincent’s uncle. “Commissioner, there’s no rush in arresting the man. Wait for my notice.” Kaze declined the suggestion of arresting Bronik immediately. What the Hanser family did to Darcy had crossed the line. Arresting Bronik alone could not soothe his wrath. Besides, Bronik was not even a core member of the Hanser family. Arresting him might
It was a happy day for Rudy and his family as they were finally able to express their grievance. They got back the company, the house, and the cars. In addition to that, the company got an extra two hundred million in investment and the pre-sale of Passion Fragrance District was about to start. Their house was upgraded to a mansion and their cars supercars; their lives enhanced, and it was all thanks to Darcy! She worked tirelessly just for them to live a better life! “Agnes, stop crying. No amount of tears you shed can bring your daughter back! Pack your things and get out!” Karen was annoyed by Agnes’ silent sobbing. She was never on good terms with Agnes and they had always argued over the years. Seeing Agnes’ family decline excited Karen. “Karen, if you say one more word about my daughter, I’ll rip your mouth off!” Agnes bellowed. She cried a river when Darcy was arrested, but she could not stand to hear others badmouth her daughter. “Your daughter is a crimin
Even though Jean had confessed that she was set up by the Hanser family to frame Darcy, Darcy knew that her uncle and cousins must have had a hand in it. Without their involvement, it was impossible for the Hanser family to forge the documents. Darcy was disappointed in her uncle and cousins. Since they had never accepted her as family, there was no need for her to show them any compassion. This time, she did not need Kaze to be the bad guy. She called Bruno, the CEO of Heavensward Group, and said coldly, “Mr. Bandino, there are trespassers on my property. Please send security over to my house and take them away!” Rudy and his family were shocked. Infuriated, Karen shouted, “Darcy, how dare you call the guards to throw us out!?” “Darcy, I am your uncle, she’s your aunt! How can you throw us out?” Rudy bellowed. Darcy said nothing with a cold face in response to her uncle and aunt’s shout. She did not like raising her voice. She preferred to prove herself with real ac
The threat Deborah left behind lingered in Agnes’ mind. Rudy’s family turned cocky once in power. They would certainly throw their weight around the family. Darcy did not take her mother’s words seriously. Instead, she frowned. “So, the Hansers acquired the Passion Fragrance District project.” Kaze, upon returning from causing a scene at the housing department, told Darcy the Hansers were plotting to steal Quintessential Group.Fortunately, Kaze got Johnson, the mayor, on his side and foiled the Hansers’ plan. Yet, the Hansers refused to give up and came back with a vengeance. This time, they succeeded. Darcy pulled out her phone to give Logan a call. “Aren’t you under investigation, Darcy? Why are you calling me?” Logan did not want to take Darcy’s call because she was the last person he wanted to see right now. Still, he could not resist the curiosity and surprise, so he took the call. “The case is overturned. Johnson told Ned to testify for me.” Disheartened an
“Since your case is thrown out, you should run the company again, Ms. Quint. We are waiting for you to set things right so that we can come back to work for you.” Fish, the sales manager of the Passion Fragrance District project, expressed the thoughts of many resigned senior executives and employees. Only a handful were fired by Rudy and Samus. Most of them walked out on their own. Following Darcy’s arrest and Rudy’s return to power, they saw no hope in the company. Even though they would get a better job offer for quitting before getting a job lined up, they resigned without hesitation. As Rudy and Samus contributed nothing to the company, the employees would be wasting their time expecting a career with Quintessential Group. Darcy learned from Fish that the Hansers took over the Passion Fragrance District worksite the moment she was taken away into custody. The project manager and chief engineer were replaced by the Hansers’ people. The sales team Fish put togethe
Kaze knew what was on Johnson’s mind. Johnson put his career and everything on the line for Kaze because Kaze was the God of War. Johnson believed he could turn his family’s and his fortune around by getting in Kaze’s good graces. Hence, he worked hard to please Kaze. The moment Darcy was taken into custody, Johnson called Kaze before the latter did so, expressing that he was working to get Darcy out. However, Miru would never believe that story. In fact, Agnes and the rest of the family would think Kaze was just tooting his horn. Kaze was not bothered to explain, and a call from Snow happened to come in. He went out to take the call. “What’s up?” Kaze asked. Snow replied, “Mr. Chairman, I have found records of Liben’s and the others’ misconduct while they were working for Lilyrose Bank. What do you want to do with the information?” Ever since Johnson hired Snow as the chairman of Lilyrose Bank, she got straight to digging dirt on Liben and his friends when they wo
Darcy believed Agnes went too far, so she said angrily, “We didn’t do anything wrong, Mom. Why should Kaze apologize? Besides, Kaze convinced Joy to testify. The case will close soon enough.” “Why are you still defending him?” Agnes snapped back. “The Hansers nearly had you behind bars. It won’t be a bed of roses now that you crossed the top three families. Are you going to make us worry about you? It won’t kill him to apologize for once.” Darcy wanted to argue, but Kaze stopped her. He looked at Miru and said with a smirk, “Set up the meeting, Miru. We’ll see who’s the one apologizing then.” Kaze had enough of Miru. It was time to show the woman what he was made of, so she would quit looking down on him. “Not even a thank-you. Geez.” Miru scoffed. If it were not for Darcy, Kaze’s attitude would have pushed Miru to wash her hands over the matter. She did not take Kaze seriously. The dimwit was just stubborn because of his ego. “Leo, contact Liben, the director of
