Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3149 Big Four Kingpins
Sudden realization struck. “Oh? It’s him? Boris Road is a legend!” Being one of the big four kingpins in the underworld of Riverbank, Boris was worthy of being called a legend. He started his business in the underworld and had nothing to begin with. In thirty years' time, he managed to acquire a billion in net worth. More importantly, he grew up in the underworld yet he was able to withdraw from it after getting rich. He was more capable than any other gangster boss or kingpin. Many who shared a similar background with Boris would either end up dead in their later years or imprisoned. Therefore, when the crowd knew the man was Boris, they nodded and bowed at him, hoping to make acquaintance. Boris greeted them one by one and then looked at Aiden. “Mr. Aiden Krad, I am sorry but I am extremely interested in the Golden Toad. I hope you will let me have it.” Aiden’s expression ashened. “Mr. Road, I have heard many things about you. You are interested in the Golden Toad,
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3150 Add Three Billion
“Mr. Krad is indeed a gentleman. I will proceed with the countdown.” The auctioneer smiled and then said, “Two billion calling once. “Two billion calling twice… “So—” Right before she could swing the gavel down, a voice spoke up and said, “Five billion.” Five billion!? The entire hall was silent once more. The auctioneer’s hand holding the gavel froze in the air. Everyone on the floor gasped in shock. Five billion?! Three billion more than Aiden’s bid?! Was it a prank or was it a proper bid? Everyone looked in the direction of the voice and was shocked. “It’s him!” “The live-in husband of the chairwoman of Sky Ocean Corporation!” “He’s definitely trying to mess around!” Many of the attendees believed Kaze calling the price just to mess with Aiden. Aiden’s previous bid of two billion on top of Boris’ was already shocking enough, yet Kaze raised it to five billion. It simply sounded ridiculous—that was no way to place a bid at an auction! Aiden’s eye
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3151 Bid On
It was plain to see that the person overseeing Four Ocean Auction took orders from Aiden. Aiden grimaced. Reading the room, the crowd knew that Kaze was there to sabotage Aiden. Most importantly, Kaze had the power to do so. The fact that Kaze was able to attend the auction by overdrawing 10 billion dollars from Tenka Bank’s Black Centurion card and providing proof of deposit, spoke volumes about his preparation.Aiden had to swallow his words for calling Kaze some random guy. Some among the crowd looked at Kaze with thrill. Though they did not have the nerve to compete with Aiden, they would love to see somebody else try. Besides, Kaze just humiliated Aiden with money. Not everybody wanted to suck up to Aiden. Aiden took a deep breath and said curtly, “Are you sure you want to outbid me on this Golden Toad, Kaze?”“We are in an auction, aren’t we? The item will go to the winning bid. Why can’t I bid on it?” Kaze showed his stance while responding to Aiden in defi
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3152 Too Much of a Good Thing
Kaze may be rich, but Aiden hailed from a powerful and wealthy family in the West State. The money possessed by the Krads could last for generations. Aiden was in a completely different league than Kaze. The crowd believed Kaze would take his win and stop getting under Aiden’s skin. To their surprise, Kaze raised his paddle. “Seven billion dollars.” The crowd was at a loss. Kaze kept on bidding. To think he would bid on it. It was a high price to pay just to get back at Aiden. The Golden Toad was worth no more than two billion dollars, but Kaze’s involvement had caused Aiden to fork out an extra five billion dollars. Five billion dollars was a lot of money. Even the female auctioneer fell silent for a bit before asking cautiously, “Mr. Krad, are you bidding?” Instead of responding to the auctioneer, Aiden turned to Kaze and said with a smirk, “Can you really afford seven billion dollars, Kaze?” Kaze smiled indifferently. “Are you dumb? I paid a ten-billion-dol
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3153 Test the Gem’s Hardness
Aiden looked askance at Kaze and said, “Trust me. I have the power to do so.“Sure, you have money, but you’re insignificant to me.” Many stared at Aiden in reverence.Aiden was a tyrant. Joan just wanted to throw herself at Aiden. “Oh, really?” Kaze smiled offhandedly. Aiden turned to yell at the auctioneer, “Just seal the deal.” “Seven billion dollars, calling thrice. “Sold to Mr. Lee at seven billion dollars.” With the drop of the gravel, the auctioneer faced Kaze. “Please proceed to payment, Mr. Lee.” Everybody looked at Kaze sympathetically, assuming that he would flee. Aiden was determined to get his hands on the Golden Toad. Kaze just spent seven billion dollars on nothing. Kaze was better off not buying the bid. To everybody’s surprise, Kaze handed a Centurion card. “Here you go.” Moments later, Kaze signed the bill. Soon, the Golden Toad, wrapped in a lovely box, was handed to Kaze. Despite Kaze holding a gem worth seven billion dollars, no one
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3154 No One Can Get It
Kaze dropped a bombshell. The crowd looked up at Kaze in shock. Kaze spent seven billion dollars just to destroy the art piece. All he wanted to do was test out its hardness. It was an outrageous waste. No! It was downright insane!“S-Say that one more time. What are you trying to do?” Aiden had to be sure. By the looks of things, he believed Kaze had lost his mind. “Are you deaf? I’ll say this again.” Kaze said with a wide grin, “I want to smash the Golden Toad in front of everybody. “I can be a little extreme. I would rather destroy the things I can’t have. “You pushed me to it, Mr. Krad.“Besides, this baby is worth seven billion dollars. Even the world’s richest wouldn’t destroy something valued at seven billion dollars. “Don’t you think?” Straightening his back, Kaze looked around the room in defiance. Aiden was tempted to get in Kaze’s face and beat him up. “Are you ready? I’m doing it.” Kaze raised the metal gravel and shouted. An uproar broke out i
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3155 As You Wish
“Kaze.” Aiden’s sidekick came forth and pointed at Kaze arrogantly. “Enough with the games. Do you think you can fool Mr. Krad? “You can either smash the gem right now or get on your knees and present the Golden Toad to Mr. Krad. “If you’re lucky, Mr. Krad might forgive you.”Kaze smiled offhandedly. “Kneel?“Believe me when I say that you’ll be on your knees begging me in a bit.” The sidekick scoffed and looked at Kaze in disdain. Aiden smirked in rage. “You want my buddy to beg you, Lee? Who do you think you are?” “Rest assured, Mr. Krad.” Kaze replied indifferently, “I know who I am.” Aiden narrowed his eyes and looked at Kaze as if he was a dead man. Not passing the chance to mock Kaze, Joan rose to her feet. “Who are you bluffing, Kaze? I dare you to smash the Golden Toad.” Her expression was of defiance and contempt. She hated Kaze’s guts. He attacked her twice in public yesterday, and she needed to get urgent care. Today, she could only show her face to
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3156 What’s Wrong?
On her deathbed, Melissa expressed deep regret for stealing the Golden Toad. She wanted to get the gem back to atone for her sins. Sean became obsessed with finding the Golden Toad. The young members of the family had been on a relentless search to locate the Golden Toad. Not too long ago, Aiden finally tracked the Golden Toad down in Geranium City. The wealthy businessman from Geranium City, who bought the Golden Toad, did not appreciate its value, and the gem changed hands multiple times over the years. The Golden Toad was nothing more than a decorative piece to others, but it held profound meaning to the Krads. Hence, Aiden was able to acquire the Golden Toad for a hundred million dollars effortlessly. Only, the ease of retrieving the Golden Toad would undermine his effort and determination. So Aiden secretly passed the Golden Toad to Everett and orchestrated today’s auction. His goal was to turn his grandparents’ love story and his dedication into a legendary tal

Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3570 Look Around
Kaze watched as the senior citizens took off. The place was quiet as usual, and many things in the unit were left uncollected. “Mr. Lee, does this arrangement work?” Arthur awaited Kaze’s orders. “It will do for now.” After being out for the day, Kaze had seen some stuff. Business was all about making money, but some lines should not be crossed. As long as things remained within reason, there would not be scrutiny or blame. It was astounding the lengths Jet would go to. “The area will be demolished after a while. I want all of the Frosts’ projects on hold. Don’t approve any of them.” One word from Kaze could shake the very foundation of the Frosts’ business. “Alright. My team is on it. “But the Frosts will ask questions and find out who is behind this.” Arthur looked at Kaze worriedly. “They can’t find anything.” No one would know who Kaze was without his permission. It probably never crossed Jet’s mind that Snow had a powerful friend. Otherwise, he woul
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3569 Time Is of the Essence
Kaze was confused. Surely, the authorities would not disregard human lives and demolish the place by force. “Well, we tried to relocate them, but they refused our services. If they are still not on board, they will be sent to the retirement home tonight.” That was all Pax knew. The retirement home was just another place for the senior citizens to await death. “Is there nothing else you can do? So you signed the contract without thinking about the consequences? Karma will get back at you.” Pax’s shamelessness shocked Arthur. Pax mentioned that he would put the demolition on hold. It had not been long, and now the rights to the land were handed over. “It’s out of my hands. Jet went to my superiors to seal the deal. We are not allowed to intervene. “We had been figuring out ways to reach reconciliation for these senior citizens, but Jet was determined to make them pay.” It was the best Pax could do. He was just an employee, working to make a living. He did not have a say
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3568 Not My Responsibility
“I want to see the person in charge of the demolition project now.” It was not a matter of time before the area was bulldozed, but Kaze hoped to delay it. Generally, it would take a large amount of capital to launch a project. Any delay would cause massive losses. Jet had several projects that had been put on hold, and it was a heavy blow to him. If Jet could not fix things quickly enough, all his money tied to the projects would be gone. He would be forced to ditch some projects to cut his losses. “I’ll get him here right now.” Arthur went out to make phone calls. He believed Kaze did the right thing as the senior citizens had nowhere to turn to. The senior citizens could only survive with some help. “Thank you, young man. Why are you helping us?” The senior citizens were old, but they could tell that Kaze genuinely wanted them to be okay. “I don’t think it’s right to bully you.” Kaze looked at the senior citizens earnestly, feeling sorry for them. Jet lack
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3567 Talk on Your Behalf
“We agreed on relocation because we would get a place to stay. “But these people were unreasonable. We were offered only one-third of what everyone else got.” The senior citizens were going to swallow their losses. They just needed the money to live their last days, and they did not have family, to begin with. Later, the same people had their eyes on their money and tried to put them up at an old folks’ home. The senior citizens refused to relocate and finally chose to protect themselves by contacting the media. These people sure left the senior citizens to die. Kaze was sympathetic to the senior citizens. He went back with them to a unit on the ground floor. The place was bare, with several beds placed together. The senior citizens must be sleeping in the same room. There was little to eat, only some water and dry provisions.The old residents did not have much savings. It was good enough that they had something to eat. “Have a cup of water, boy. We don’t have any
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3566 Prey on the Vulnerable
“Are you one of those people from the pier? Are you trying to get us to leave?” A grizzled-haired man looked at Kaze warily. “I was just passing by when I saw you struggling with the buckets. I came to help you.” Kaze explained patiently. He could understand why their guards were up. They must have been lied to many times before. “Are you here to help?” “Yes, I am. My companion has gone to get you some water. He’ll be back soon. There’s no need for you to fetch water,” Kaze said kindly. “We’ll pay you.” The senior citizens exchanged glances before accepting Kaze’s gesture. They could not handle the weight of the heavy buckets. “The building here is about to be demolished. Why are you still living here?” Pretending to be in the dark, Kaze asked. “This is our home. Someone is trying to take this land away.” The grizzled-haired man was upset. “What? I thought no one could demolish the building unless they had the residents’ permission.” “You’re right, but there
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3565 Silenced Media
“Jet sure is bold to ensure business. Isn’t he afraid of shooting himself in the foot?” Kaze had never met a man like Jet. “He has done a lot to get to the top. His ruthless methods got him a lot of money. A lot of people are happy to support him.” Arthur was impressed with Jet’s tactics. However, his approach was too cruel for his liking. “Let’s head to the residential building.” Kaze just wanted to check out the area. He was happy to help when needed. The flashy, red sports car was eye-catching. However, the flamboyant car was uncommon in these places. Most workers would express their amazement, but they would not ask questions. The car pulled up outside a soon-to-be abandoned building. It looked desolate. The power lines and infrastructure were not visible either. Kaze knew that was one of the Frosts’ methods. Sometimes, nothing, not even demolition, was required. The goal was to get the residents out. All Jet needed to do was cut the water and electricity.
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3564 Prime Real Estate
“Just tell me what you need, Arthur. You wouldn’t be calling unless you have received orders.” Philip was surprised to get a call from Arthur. Though they were acquainted, they had only communicated because of work. “We have just left Rising Sun. Don’t approve the films for now.” Arthur was blunt. “I can do that, but can I ask why?” Philip was caught in a dilemma because he had just promised Jet to release the films. Philip needed to know if the orders to delay came from a high power who could cover his ass. “Since you got a call from me, you should know that there are eyes on Jet. “You should know what you can and cannot say. Otherwise, you never know when you’re going to lose your job.” Arthur threatened. Philip was reluctant. He accepted Jet’s payment, and now he had to go back on his word. Nevertheless, Arthur was part of the Viper’s Den, and his status was rather unique. Arthur provided services to confidential individuals. These individuals were elites among t
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3563 Trigger
A balanced, profitable dynamic had been developed among the ports in Butterworth. Jet spotted his chance in the lucrative port business. He covertly took out some money to invest in a dying port. The port was situated in a more remote area. Some businesspeople favored more accessible ports. This drove shippers away from the dying port. Jet snagged the steal and improved the logistics and facilities around the area. The port was up and running again. Business at the port was decent enough. As the Frosts would run their business through the port, the local economy took off too. It was a good thing. However, Jet set his sights on several residential buildings around the area. He needed space to accommodate containers. The land was required to make business at the port more profitable. This triggered a whole new thing. Jet could spend some money to buy the residents out of their homes. However, the residents preferred to stay put in their long-time homes. No a

“I’ll keep the bank cards for now. I’ll talk to our superiors and give you a decision. Since the man said that the cards are meant for us, they won’t be going anywhere.” Knox had no idea who Kaze was, but he knew Arthur was with the Viper’s Den. Arthur must be someone from high places. Eli soon put the little incident behind him. He got a call from Aloysius yesterday and was made aware of Jet’s plans. The films had been put on hold for far too long, and the people above Eli were anxious to get things moving. Though Eli was surprised by the review board’s visit, everything was still in his control. Eli left the matter at that without reporting the incident to the higher-ups. The flashy, red car sped along the road. Arthur kept looking back at Kaze, eager to find out about the next plan. Arthur brought Kaze out today to witness how Eli and his team operated. As it happened, Eli adopted such a shallow ploy. Arthur was not surprised, though. Eli’s methods were common.
