Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3160 Thirty-Five Billion Dollars
“That’s not a lot,” Aiden murmured with a sneer.Sky Ocean Corporation was not a worthy rival with just 15 billion dollars in funding. Joan said cautiously, “Mr. Krad, they now have 10 billion dollars from you too.” Aiden grimaced. Nevertheless, he pulled himself together and said callously, “So they now have 25 billion dollars.“Are you sure that this is the most Sky Ocean Corporation can afford right now?” Joan nodded. “I am certain. You pulled all the right strategies to drain Sky Ocean Corporation’s funding. “After what happened, no banks would give them a loan. “Though Madam Quint didn’t look into Sky Ocean Corporation’s finances yesterday, we can tell from Darcy and her assistant’s behavior that the corporation account is dry. “I just can’t figure out where Kaze got the money from.“I would’ve loved to see them denied entry.” Aiden nodded. “So all I need is 35 billion dollars to acquire the piece of land.” He talked as if thirty-five billion dollars was not a
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3161 Think Small
“It’s public information that Crown Tower under Mt. Seven Stars and its surrounding land is the best spot in the city. “The Seven Star District Council put up the land for sale in hopes of finding a good buyer to develop and boost the growth of the city. “As a result, we have conducted a comprehensive screening process for all potential buyers and selected a few qualified buyers.” The bidders perked up. The highlight of today’s auction was the land in the Seven Star District. The other auction items were insignificant compared to the main event. The ten-billion-dollar sale of the Golden Toad was unexpected. However, the Seven Star District land was likely to exceed the price point. That was what the ordinary bidders thought. A select few had the inside story, and they were qualified to bid on Crown Tower. Still, they quietly put down their paddles. First of all, this was the big leagues. It would take money, connections, and a lot of influence to stay in the game
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3162 Head-to-Head
Darcy said indifferently, “Working in business, we want to make sure every penny counts. We can’t be as lavish as you, Mr. Krad.” It sounded like a compliment, but the sarcasm was buried within. She was implying that Aiden was flexing his financial muscles. Aiden grimaced. He did not expect Darcy to snap back at him. After a scoff, Aiden cocked his head back and said menacingly, “Six billion dollars.” Excited by the heated competition, the auctioneer cried, “Six billion dollars, going once. Are there any other bidders? “Six billion dollars, going twice.” Darcy uttered without hesitation, “Six point one billion dollars.” “Seven billion dollars!” Aiden bid on and sneered. “You’ll be sorry for taking me on, Ms. Quint.“I can tell you now that we were only going to spend five billion dollars on the land. “You’ll pay for all the losses.” Dropping his gentleman act, Aiden uttered grimacingly, “If you know any better, you should leave right now. Stop giving me problem
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3163 Fifty Billion Dollars
Darcy’s eyes burned with rage. “Mr. Krad, I’d rather buy the land and let it rot than let you win.” “Bam!” Aiden stood up, knocking his chair over. He stared at Darcy menacingly. “You’ll be sorry, bitch!”“If you want to make a scene, you’re better off outbidding me.” Darcy taunted. With the gloves off, Darcy was no longer compelled to be civil with Aiden. “10 billion dollars, going once. Are there any other bids?” The auctioneer’s voice trembled. “10 billion dollars, going twice.” She looked at Aiden. Aiden turned ashen, mainly because Darcy pissed him off. Still, he had to stop the auctioneer from hammering the gravel and giving the land to Darcy. Aiden drew the line for thirty-five billion dollars. The competition was far from being over. He decided to go big to crush Darcy all at once. Darcy would have to cover all his losses anyway. With that in mind, Aiden gritted his teeth and said with a menacing smile, “Twenty-five—” “Can you just cut to the chase?
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3164 Keep Bidding
“I think we can all see who the real idiot here is.” As reality sank in, Aiden and the others looked at Kaze as if he was the clown. Kaze outsmarted Aiden with the sale of the Golden Toad. However, Crown Tower and its surrounding land were not worth fifty billion dollars. It was true that the Ryokanians had their sights set on the land and enlisted the Krads’ help to acquire the sale. However, the Ryokanians would not pay more than what the land was worth. Even if Sky Ocean Corporation secured the sale, the Ryokanians had their way to steal the land from the company. As Aiden said, Darcy would not be able to keep the land for long. Crown Tower could not cripple Aiden. Aiden could just drop out of the running since the bid was way past his price point. To think Kaze would play the same strategy twice. Who was Kaze trying to fool? On stage, the auctioneer was taken aback by Kaze’s outrageous bid. She wondered if she heard it right. Moments later, she asked skeptic
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3165 The Drama’s Far From Over
Joan sneered. “Heh. Don’t take us all for idiots. Good luck to you.”“Mr. Lee has put in his bid. Aren’t you going to seal the deal?” Paying Kaze no heed, Aiden looked at the auctioneer. The auctioneer got the hint and shouted excitedly, “50 billion dollars, going once. “50 billion dollars, going twice. “50 billion dollars, going thrice. “Sold to Mr. Lee at 50 billion dollars.” The auctioneer turned to Kaze and said with a smile, “Congratulations, Mr. Lee. The rights to Crown Tower are yours.“I’m also pleased to announce that your 50-billion-dollar bid has set a new record for the highest bid in the history of Four Ocean Auction.“Once again, congratulations to you.” “Clap, clap.” With Aiden taking the lead, the room was filled with thundering applause. Nevertheless, the crowd simply mocked Kaze for his foolish decision. Kaze did not stop at scamming Aiden out of ten billion dollars. He took things far and shot himself in the foot. Before, the crowd was impres
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3166 No Money
“You don’t have that kind of money?” Everybody looked at Kaze in shock. He did not have that kind of money. Yet, he bid fifty billion dollars. The head of the organizing committee was stunned for a moment. He quickly chuckled dryly and said, “Please don’t joke around, Mr. Lee.” “Am I? I’m not kidding.” Kaze shrugged. “I don’t have forty billion dollars. My net worth isn’t even worth that much. “I took an advance of ten billion dollars from my Centurion card. It’s only an advance. I still need to pay the money back. “I’ve never taken money out of the Centurion card because I don’t have the funds to pay it back.“All I have is ten billion dollars, and the money was from Mr. Krad.” The crowd was taken aback. Aiden was in disbelief. “Why did you bid, Lee? You went as high as fifty billion dollars. “Don’t be something you’re not!” Joan and the others rolled their eyes. “So I can’t bid when I’m broke?” Kaze said matter-of-factly, “You called me a sucker for biddi
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3167 Thanks to Aiden
“That’s right. The rules are clear.” Kaze grabbed a rulebook and said with a smile, “You are the highest bidder after me.“I gave Mr. Krad a chance, but he didn’t take it.” Aiden asked, “Is there really such a rule?” “There is, Mr. Krad.” The head of the committee gulped hard and said with a wry smile, “We established a rule for Crown Tower, and it must be sold regardless of the price.” The rule was reserved for Crown Tower. The Seven Star District Council had been trying to sell Crown Tower for a while now, but a suitable buyer had yet to meet the council’s requirements. Hence, the council would accept any bids above ten billion dollars. Since Kaze could not afford his bid, the land would go to Darcy, the second-highest bidder. Her bid was exactly ten billion dollars. The land fell back into Darcy’s hands. However, Kaze and Darcy were independent bidders. Darcy represented Sky Ocean Corporation while Kaze was an individual buyer. It was clear that Darcy and Ka

Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3734 Spent Your Life in Regret
“No! My daughter is still in the hospital!” Katie refused to accept her punishment. She started to regret her decision but it was too late. “Now only you think about your daughter? I guess you are not that foolish, but have you thought about her when you betrayed Chairman Lee? “Don’t worry. Leah knew Chairman Lee personally and we won’t hurt her, but she might not live a good life anymore,” Snow said coldly. She did not want to put the girl in a difficult situation but her life as a princess would come to an end. “You can’t do that!” Katie could not believe Snow would do that. “I bet you never thought of the consequences when you leaked the information. Too bad. You’ve lost.” Snow revealed the truth because she wanted Katie to suffer for the decision she made. Katie would now regret every decision she made because she knew she had jeopardized her daughter’s life. She would feel like a fool. She devoted her life to climbing higher to gain more power but she ignored the
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3733 Relieve of Duty
“I went to a bar to have a drink and I bumped into an informant of the Viper’s Den.” Katie looked helpless as she explained as if everything that had happened was planned out for her, pushing her to the edge step by step. It was a lively night at the bar. The atmosphere was pleasant and most of the guests were having a good time. Katie was a single woman. She needed care and love at times. She was alone when she visited the bar. She started off by ordering some drinks at the counter, waiting for a chance to meet a man who shared the same ideals. A drink or two later, maybe she could get herself a company for the night. As a grown-up woman, she had her desires. It was a way to release her stress. Katie entered the bar in a casual outfit but it did not diminish her elegant demeanor. When she sat down at the counter, a few young men approached her but she was not interested in immature boys. She continued drinking. She looked at the dance floor occasionally, searching for a
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3732 Confess
“Who do you think will believe you?” Arthur frowned. There were too many coincidences that it felt like a giant setup. “I’ve explained what I need to. Don’t interrogate me like I’m a criminal. I am the CEO of the Northborn Group.” Katie left them speechless. She had said the necessary and it was up to them whether they wanted to believe it or not. They did not have the evidence to charge her anyway. “You really think we can’t hold you responsible?” Snow was not really looking for a definite answer. The moment she suspected Katie, whether or not she was truly the traitor, Snow already had the right to hold her accountable. It was necessary to make things clear and it was to find out who Katie leaked Kaze’s information to. “It has come down to this. No matter how you deny it, it’s useless. We already know what you have done and you can’t escape. Even if you don’t want to confess, we can continue the investigation, and we’ll eventually find out the truth. “If you come clean
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3731 Deny
After Katie sent Leah to the hospital, she went back to work. She had a lot on her plate recently and it made her hesitant. Many decisions must be made at once. Many documents required her attention but she was not in the mood to go through them. Her eyes were watching the news on her computer screen. She seemed to know what had happened yet the headlines were not showing, which made her anxious. “Nothing?” Katie felt strange. According to the scale of the incident, it should be making headlines. Hijacking a plane was no small matter, yet not one article about it was published. She felt strange. “Madam Loren, the Viper’s Den wanted to meet you. They said it is for some documents,” Joey said as she came in. “What documents?” Katie felt strange and instantly became suspicious. “The projects previously under Jet Frost and his family required your signatures. The money has already been transferred but they need one last confirmation on the numbers,” Joey said professiona
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3730 Katie Loren?
Snow could not go to Kaze because she had to stay back to handle the rest of the matter. “You know that person.” Peter dared not lie anymore because he wanted to ask for forgiveness. “You’re still trying to negotiate?” Arthur knew what Peter was targeting since he did not finish the sentence. “I regret what I have done but I want to see if the Viper’s Den could forgive me this once. I’ll make up for what I have done. Can you please let me go?” Peter boldly made his request, albeit knowing that it was unlikely to work, he hoped to gain attention. “Don’t even think about it. You’ll be out of the Viper’s Den after this. We won’t hold you responsible and consider it mercy from us.” Arthur did not want to go after Peter but he could not allow the young man to stay in the organization anymore. People who had betrayed the Viper’s Den could no longer be part of it. “I didn’t know it was this serious. Besides, that person is from the Viper’s Den as well.” Peter regretted hi
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3729 Who Could It Be?
“I wonder how Chairman Lee is doing. If he’s alone, he’ll definitely get out of the situation but there’s a whole plane of hostages with him. He must be in a difficult position.” Snow knew Kaze’s personality well enough, thus her worries. Kaze would never escape alone and abandon the people. He would either leave with everyone or stay to find a way to solve the matter. Snow then suddenly sighed a breath of relief because she knew Kaze would never spare the hijackers for what they did. She was no longer overly concerned and focused instead on resolving the matter at hand. A while later, Arthur came back hurriedly. “I’ve checked the records. Only a handful of people know that Mr. Lee left and they are all whom we are familiar with and trusted. The traitor must be among them.” He dared not believe that Kaze’s schedule was leaked from his side. “No one at my side knows about Chairman Lee’s schedule except me,” Snow said confidently. She started to feel more certain about t
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3728 Traitor?
Snow had already sent men to where the plane was found. If the passengers were taken away, then they must still be nearby. It was difficult to transport an entire plane of passengers to some place far within such a short time. It was a race against time. Snow did not know who would do such a thing. Kaze took a common flight like everyone else, yet it was hijacked. It was strange. The coincidence was uncanny. Snow believed the hijacking happened because of Kaze but she did not know why. “The only explanation is that there’s a traitor among us…” She finally came to an unlikely conclusion after combing through the details. If there were a traitor, it must be within the Viper’s Den. Kaze had laid a low profile for as long as he was in Butterworth. Not many people knew about his identity and those who wanted to make connections with him were because of Snow. It was unlikely that someone would go after him so suddenly unless this person knew his identity and background.
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3727 Who Leaks It?
If they were sent to capture Kaze, then they were severely under-numbered. In addition, they allowed Kaze to be alone with the captives, which proved that they were inexperienced. Or maybe they did not know what he had done in the past as the God of War. Kaze believed that the mercenaries were after him but they did not know his true identity. There must have been some miscommunication between them and their employer, which was good news to Kaze. Tiguan and his men were eating. Since they were unable to identify the target, they were forced to bring everyone back. The plane was huge. It would be an easy target for the law enforcement to locate them. Maybe the outside world had caught wind of the hijacking. “Boss, what should we do now? That man seems like he vanished into thin air.” “We got his boarding information but we can’t identify him on the plane.” “Who are we looking for exactly? Why is he so mysterious?” The men were baffled. “We are looking for the righ
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3726 Don't Understand
“We are almost there. We have to transfer these people as soon as possible. The plane must take off right away. We cannot leave any traces behind.” They must hurry or they would be caught very soon. They held the pilot hostage and forced him to do an abrupt landing. The sudden descent caught everyone off guard, shocking them. A few of the passengers even hit their heads. Many of them did not get the chance to fasten their seat belts. Kaze grabbed Barney and protected his head from hitting the front seat. “Thank you.” Barney looked at Kaze with gratitude and then looked outside. “Where are we? Have we reached?” He was worried that they would be completely trapped. “They are going to transfer us elsewhere.” Kaze had a similar experience before and he knew what the hijackers would do next. “Transfer us? Are they going to transfer us to somewhere secluded and kill us all?” Barney looked horrified as he stared at Kaze. He somehow felt safe beside Kaze. “They sai
