“Great. Just great.” Kaze looked at Donovan with a hint of amazement and praise. “I have to say, you shouldn’t be a police captain and be a scriptwriter instead. The movies you scripted would sell like crazy. “However, since you’ve come up with your own deduction, can I also voice some of my questions?” Donovan looked at Kaze coldly without saying a word. Kaze did not care if he allowed, he said, “First, the same question, I have so many beautiful women around me, why would I be interested in an influencer who is a 3 or 2 to me, and would I even need to rape her? “Second, you said you’ve gotten a hold of all the witnesses and their testimonies, what about Snow Frost? Have you gotten hers? If you talked to her, you’d know that she was there and saw it when Mika tried to seduce me. She got upset, slapped her, and even canceled her on the spot. “I'd like to ask if the baseless claims you are using to press charges on me are the ones you believed to be true, or is this just how
Kaze’s move made Donovan’s intimidation and pressure seem excessive. His words left the three officers speechless, their eyes twitching. Kaze was right and they were trying to bait him into confessing. As for the evidence and testimony Donovan mentioned, nothing they had could actually pin Kaze or allow them to prosecute him. Donovan looked at Kaze for a moment and sighed. He said, “You know your way around the wall, which makes it worse after what you have committed. “I’m telling you now, Kaze Lee! Even if you call Jesus, he won’t save you for what you have done! You are done for!” Kaze chuckled and said, “Then can I get my phone call before I meet Jesus?” Donovan was left speechless once more as his eyes continued to twitch. No matter how much he tried to scare Kaze, it did not work. On top of that, Kaze insisted on making his phone call. Bam! Donovan slammed the table once more, shouting, “Kaze Lee, you are a suspect! Don’t even think about the phone call! You mi
“Honey, this is the last time I’ll bathe you. We’ve been married for three years but we’ve never made love. I want you to pop my cherry before we divorce…” Kaze Lee sat in the bathtub with Darcy Quint behind him. Her voluptuous body was pressed against his back and her slender hands were exploring his body. The water showered the two of them, producing a bodily fragrance in the air. Darcy poured body shampoo onto Kaze’s muscular body. Her delicate hands stroked his abs and it made her blush. When she looked at Kaze, bitterness struck her and tears rolled down her cheeks. Kaze’s head was slightly tilted. His handsome face looked blank and dull while he drooled uncontrollably as if he were a mindless puppet. “Honey, what happened in the past three years? What made you like this?” Darcy sobbed. Three years ago, Darcy married Kaze but on their wedding night, he as the groom disappeared. The news of her husband’s escape spread like wildfire and the Quint family became the la
Loud noises of tables and chairs being overturned echoed from the phone. Draco’s excited voice followed, “Boss, is it really you?! Where have you been!? You’ve been missing for all this time and it almost drove us mad! “Since your identity is confidential, we are not permitted to locate you without official orders.” Kaze sighed and said, “I got into some trouble. I’m fine now. I have recovered.” “Someone tried to harm you? Who is it? Just one word, boss! Me and the guys will raze them to the ground,” Draco said angrily. “It’s okay,” Kaze replied coldly. He did not want others to be involved in his affair with the Lee family. He must end it with his own hands and his own hands alone. “I have something that I need you to do. Arrange for Sky High Investment Group to enter Lilyrose by tonight and announce an investment in the city worth ten billion.” He served in the army for three years. Not only did he lead his men to battle, but he also founded a business empire in another
“Kaze, you’ve recovered?!” Seeing the clarity in Kaze’s eyes, Darcy covered her mouth in disbelief, thrilled to see her husband looking lively. “Yes, Darcy, I have recovered.” Kaze looked at Darcy as his eyes teared up despite having gone through countless brutal fights on the battlefield himself. Darcy broke down in tears instantly. She was thrilled to see Kaze healthy. Kaze pulled her into his arms. He felt sorry for putting her through so much suffering all these years. “Hmph. So what if you’ve recovered? You are still a piece of trash,” Deborah said with a scoff. She sat down, pointed at the folded table in the corner, and said loudly, “Get over there and sit down. Contributing ten billion? What a joke!” Kaze frowned. He wanted to argue but Darcy stopped him and dragged him over to the corner. The four of them sat at the folded table. The others were having a feast whereas Darcy and her family were served four cups of ramen. Master Quint at the center seat loo
Looking at Kaze’s confident face, Darcy hesitated. She thought of her family’s current financial situation and it gave her no choice. She bit the bullet, got up, and said, “Grandfather, I’ll go and recover the debt.” “You stupid girl! Are you crazy? What if that gangster ripped your face apart? Henry wouldn’t want you then!” Agnes panicked. The others were shocked, including Master Quint. No one expected Darcy to take up the task. Samus and the others gloated at her. He then took a five-dollar bill and tossed it at Darcy. “This is for your bravery and for you to take the bus back.” Deborah crossed her arms and said with raised brows, “You agreed to go yourself. If anything happens to you, don't blame us.” Kaze glared at the few of them coldly. He did not even want to argue with them because they were simply clowns. He held Darcy’s hand and left the mansion. Meanwhile, Darcy’s parents were giddy with anxiety. Agnes gritted her teeth, “We must ask Henry to help us, he’s o
Lee? Pietro looked at Kaze, baffled. “There is a man named Kaze Lee, and I’m trying to teach him a lesson.” A loud thud could be heard from the other end of the line. Pietro asked, “Boss, are you alright?” Then, a thunderous roar from the man was blasted into Pietro’s ear through the phone. “Alright? I’m not f*cking alright! Are you trying to f*ck with me now?! I’m warning you, whatever that man tells you to do, you f*cking do it, understand? He is a God from now on!” Pietro was stunned. He had never seen Giovani this scared for as long as he worked for him. He instinctively asked, “Boss, are you mistaken? He’s just some trash who married into the Quint family.” “Pietro, are you trying to get yourself killed? You and I are like flies to him. One swat and we are all dead, crushed! You understand me?!” “Boss, I…” Pietro got nervous. “Last warning. That man is someone that not even I can mess with, you better take care of your own a*s!” The call ended abruptly. Pie
“Hmph!” Miru scoffed. “I would like to see how you do that. By the way, do you know where Henry is bringing us to dinner tonight? It’s the third floor of Cloud Nine! A piece of trash like you could never get into such a luxurious restaurant even if you work your entire life!” Agnes’ eyes glimmered with excitement. “The third floor of Cloud Nine?! Only Golden members can make a booking at that place!” Cloud Nine was one of the most famous restaurants in Lilyrose and only by spending above ten million on a single receipt, one would be eligible to apply for the Golden membership. Master Quint was the only one in the entire family to have a Golden member card. As for floors above the third, the required spending would be much higher. Miru glanced at Kaze and scoffed, “Kaze, this is the difference between you and Henry. I have no idea what gives you the confidence to continue staying at Darcy’s side.” “Miru, stop talking to this piece of trash. Darcy is here. Let’s go. We wouldn

“Great. Just great.” Kaze looked at Donovan with a hint of amazement and praise. “I have to say, you shouldn’t be a police captain and be a scriptwriter instead. The movies you scripted would sell like crazy. “However, since you’ve come up with your own deduction, can I also voice some of my questions?” Donovan looked at Kaze coldly without saying a word.

“Not only that, Mika has PR in Ryokan and is a prominent figure in their Ministry of Foreign Affairs. When her death made the news, Ryokan sent us inquiries about what happened. “You should know that as long as this case is ongoing, it will only snowball into a bigger mess and you will face a bigger disadvantage. I am giving you a chance to confess because of Draig. “If you don’t seize this chance, then you have no one to blame. When we get to the bottom of this, given the crimes that you have committed, you are likely to be executed right away. “Are you sure you want to throw the chance away?” Donovan got up, leaned forward slightly, and peered down at Kaze condescendingly. It was his usual interrogation method to pressure suspects. Usually, other than the stubborn suspects, the ordinary people would crumble under his intimidation. Kaze smiled. “You want me to confess? At least remind me what I have done. Why don’t you give me a little jolt? Maybe I can remember somethin
“Kaze Lee, after some investigation, we’ve already gotten to the bottom of this case. You threatened the victim at the Yemens’ party, claiming that you would cancel her entirely on the internet. “You said it yourself, right? Don’t deny it because we have at at least ten witnesses to prove that,” the officer said. Kaze pursed his lips. “So this is how the captain is planning to take ‘good care’ of me? If what I said can be used to press charges against me, Arcadia won’t even need that many officers. Anyone could do your job. We're no longer in ancient times, where mere words alone can convict someone of a crime.” The officer slightly pushed his glasses and asked, “So you are not confessing?” “Why should I confess?” Kaze chuckled and said, “I didn’t hurt anyone, or kill anyone. I live by my conscience, why should I confess? I am not guilty.” “Your conscience? How dare you say that?” Donovan bellowed. He slammed several documents on the table in front of Kaze and continued, “O
“Draig’s cousin?” Kaze looked at Donovan with interest. “I didn’t know he was such a guy with a big heart. I ruined his little plan and he still wants you to take good care of me? Are you sure it is what he asked of you, and not torment me, press charges on me, and make sure I get jailed for the rest of my life so that I won’t bother him anymore?” His tone was casual and flat. He was not affected by Donovan’s words. Donovan’s lips twitched helplessly. Kaze saw right through him and even echoed Draig's words, at least in terms of their meaning. When Draig found out Kaze was arrested, he called his cousin and instructed him to torment Kaze, even locking him up for life if possible. As for taking care of Kaze properly, not even an idiot would believe it. Donovan did not expect Kaze to remain calm even after being isolated for some time, cut off from all information and updates. He saw Kaze as an ordinary man, not a criminal who had experience in counter-interrogation. It
Kaze slowly opened his eyes, his mind already having calculated Aiden's next move. It was likely that Aiden would come to bail him and then “unintentionally” revealed that he was giving false testimony. Once it sparked a debate among the public and public opinion reached its peak, stirring up even more agitation, it would be even more difficult for the influential figures to intervene. Only then Aiden could easily crush Kaze like an ant and prevent him from making a comeback. Even Kaze approved of the skills and planning involved in this scheme against him. For someone who received an elite education from a young age, Aiden’s temperament and cunningness were beyond reach. “Creek.” Suddenly, the iron door of the interrogation room was opened from the outside. Three uniformed officers strode in. The leader of the three was the middle-aged man who brought Kaze in earlier. He went up to the table and glanced at the empty paper. He scoffed. “Kaze Lee, you’ve gotten time
Based on Kaze’s deduction, Mika’s death was planned on the day of the Yemens’ party. Ryna and Cyan were rude toward Kaze and when Mika saw him that night, conflict was inevitable. Given Kaze’s attitude, after Mika got under his skin, he would surely say something like cancel her online to threaten her. With that, the prerequisite for setting up this plan was fulfilled. Kaze got the motive and the power to do so. Therefore, in times of need, Mika could be pushed to the forefront as a sacrifice. Mika’s death pointed all the arrows at Kaze, making him a suspect or even the killer. In fact, the entire incident should be coordinated with another secret plan to make the chain of evidence more solid and clear. However, Aiden was offended and slapped by Kaze earlier, so he decided to retaliate as soon as possible. It was the reason why the seemingly flawless plan started to have cracks. Despite Aiden’s hasty nature in doing things, Kaze was actually impressed by the masterm
Lock instinctively took a step forward and said, “Ms. Quint, Ms. Frost, it’s a good deal. Given Mr. Krad’s power, he could easily get Kaze out. “One of you is Kaze’s wife; one of you is his assistant. You just can’t sit back and do nothing while Kaze gets sent to jail.” Worry consumed him and made him nervous. He lacked the power to save Kaze, but Aiden could and was willing to. The terms were not harsh and demanding either, but he neglected Darcy and Snow’s feelings. Noticing the ladies’ silence, Aiden continued, “Ladies, my terms are not harsh at all. It’s a good deal, for you and for Kaze. “Kaze can come back in one piece and we can sit down peacefully and talk over dinner. “For Ms. Quint, you and I might be able to reach an agreement regarding the land at Crown Tower; for Ms. Frost, consider it an explanation to the Frosts. Am I right?” The smile on his face looked sincere as if what he offered was purely to have dinner with the ladies without ulterior motives. Da
Aiden narrowed his eyes. He never thought Snow would still reject his brother after all that had happened. He shrugged and then said to Darcy and Snow with a smile, “I am proposing a trade for you ladies.” “A trade?” Darcy was slightly surprised. She asked, “What trade?” She knew Aiden was up to no good, but worrying too much would only slow her down. She wanted to find out what Aiden’s terms were for releasing Kaze.Snow did not speak but simply looked at Aiden. Aiden sensed the concerns from the ladies and it somehow aroused jealousy in him. What charms did Kaze possess to make these two ladies fall for him? Discarding the messing thoughts, Aiden said, “You two are aware of the current situation. Based on the current evidence, Mika took her own life. “However, she’s a PR in Ryokan and her death might cascade into some problematic issues. As for how big it will snowball depends on Ryokan’s reaction. “You should know that I am quite close with the Ryokanians. If I sp
