Guardian-In-Law Chapter 355 Golden Key Lounge
Gino sounded condescending as if he was giving out charity. He believed Kaze had to play nice with the former employees to survive at the company even if he managed to pull some strings to get the COO position. A loser like Kaze would not miss the chance to expand his network. “Alright. I’m in.” Kaze nodded in agreement with a smirk. Gino was not helping out of the goodness of his heart. He had something up his sleeves. Kaze only accepted the invitation because many former employees of Shangrila Group would be there. The re-establishment of Shangrila welcomed back many former employees. Most of them were loyal to the previous management and they were competent at their jobs, but a few with ill intentions might slip through the cracks of Snow’s hiring. Kaze could use the opportunity to check these people out.Soon, Gino sent a text with the address of the place they were meeting at. The venue for the party was Golden Key Lounge, a bar located adjacent to the office
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 356 Sour Grapes
Megan spotted the girl and assumed a commanding tone, her voice dripping with condescension. Sophie once worked at the former Shangrila Group too. She was hired back as one of the leaders in the HR department, working under Megan. “I’m sorry, Megan. My mother fell ill. I admitted her to the hospital before coming straight over.” Sophie knew Megan had a reputation for being harsh, so she would not miss the latter’s birthday party unnecessarily. She rushed over to the venue without getting home for a change of clothes. Still, it gave Megan a reason to rip into Sophie. Megan would not have any of it. She pulled a long face and gave Sophie a piece of her mind. Swallowing her discontent, Sophie avoided talking to the leaders and sought solace in a quiet corner, only to find Kaze there. “Hello, sir. Thank you for letting me catch the ride ahead of you.” Thinking Kaze belonged to higher management, Sophie expressed her sincere gratitude. “I’m Kaze. No need to call me ‘sir’.”
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 357 Can’t Risk Damaging Your Property
Megan got herself thinking the moment she decided to invite Kaze to her birthday celebration. She wanted to humiliate Kaze tonight to release the pent-up anger of the last two years. Now, she finally had her chance. Despite being ignored, Kaze managed to draw attention to himself like a walking target. It was only right that she did him the favor by putting him back in his place. “Who do you think you are? Megan is extending the courtesy by inviting you, but you have been rude to her. You should ask yourself whether you have the skills to match before jumping the gun.” “If the loser can afford any car at all, he wouldn’t have taken his wife’s family name. He has no dignity.” The senior executives around Megan commented in disdain. “Took his wife’s family name?” Sophie glanced at Kaze in surprise. She was skeptical. Kaze’s grace left a strong impact. Sophie could tell from the brief chat with him that he was a man of depth and taste. How could he possibly marry i
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 358 A Moocher
“What? A Ferrari 488? Did I hear that right?”“Um… Can the loser even afford a sports car? Are pigs flying?” “The server probably got the wrong guy.” Gasps erupted in the room. People looked at Kaze in surprise, distress, and envy. However, most of them were doubtful. They refused to believe that Kaze would drive a Ferrari 488 to the party. Kaze had outdone all of them. Megan stood there, utterly embarrassed. It took a while before she said curtly, “What’s great about a Ferrari 488? Sure, it’s a multimillion-dollar car, but it only costs hundreds of thousands of dollars to give any scratch a fresh coat of paint. I can still afford that.” That was the truth, but anybody could read the aggression in her tone. Put in the spot, the server could not say anything without risking offending either party. Kaze was not unreasonable like Megan. To end the server’s dilemma, he fished out the car key from his pocket and handed it over. The car key bearing the Ferrari log
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 359 Cake in the Face
Everybody in the room except Sophie taunted Kaze. Even when Kaze drove a Ferrari 488 to attend the party, the group interpreted it as Kaze showing off. It slipped their minds that Kaze made no mention of it the whole time. That was not their concern anyway. They wanted to humiliate him to ease their awkwardness. Faced with harsh criticisms, Kaze remained unfazed. He kept a smile on his face. Kaze watched them like they were clowns in a circus. They were oblivious that Kaze could not be bothered to stoop to their level. The group took Kaze’s silence as a sign that he was overwhelmed by the mockery and had nothing to say for himself. They believed he was a loser. “Don’t forget that we have gathered here today to celebrate Megan’s birthday. We got a cake for her. Come and enjoy it,” one senior executive said. Soon, he and another friend pushed a cart over with a candle-lit three-tier cake on it. Megan made a wish and blew out the candles as everybody watched on.
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 360 True Colors
Kaze wiped the cream and cake bits off his face in silence. He was not the type to take the humiliation lying down. It had crossed Kaze’s mind to retaliate against Megan and the other executives. None of the close to twenty in the room would survive the blow. Nevertheless, he put down his hand when Megan explained the motivation behind the humiliation. Megan and the others were making him pay for ruining Shangrila Group. They were acting out on the anger and resentment that gnawed for two years. If that was the sole reason, Kaze could consider a lighter punishment for these people tomorrow. It would still be a consequence that Megan and others could not bear though.“You got your payback. I should get going.” Kaze walked out. “Hold it right there. Who said you could leave?” Gino and another male associate stood in his way, staring him down. Megan scoffed. “You’re naïve to think that this is over.” “What else do you want?” Kaze stopped in his tracks and tur
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 361 Fired
“Ms. Pamela, when Mr. White moved the company back to Lilyrose, you were just a fresh grad looking for a job. He took you in even when you didn’t have related work experience and he helped you a lot in your career. How can you just forget about that? “When Mr. White’s wife, Winnie, was pregnant, you tried to seduce Mr. White but got turned down. Mr. White showed you mercy because you were still young and transferred you to another branch so that his wife wouldn’t suspect anything. He saved your career as well! How could you forget that?!” Megan’s expression turned grim as she glared at Sophie who fired shots like a machine gun. Her dark past was displayed on the table, exposed for everyone to see and hear, yet she had no words to argue back. Sophie then switched her attention to Gino. “Mr. Hebrew, you were one of the pioneers of the company but we all know you were not capable enough to keep up with the company’s expansion, yet you still embezzled money from the company. “M
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 362 Live Footage
Sophie was no one and she could not possibly threaten Megan and the other executives. Megan and the other executives focused their firepower on Kaze after they got rid of Sophie. “Kaze Lee, you piece of useless garbage! Listen up! If you dare to set foot in our company, I’ll ask security to throw you out!” “If you get an arm or a leg broken in the process, don’t blame me.” Even the security chief, Carlos, who barely had any power in the company, joined the rest in threatening Kaze. Insulting Kaze and preventing him from entering the company was the main objective of Megan and the other executives. There were only so many executive positions in the company. If Kaze became the COO, he would hinder more than one person’s career. Kaze was quiet as Megan and the rest ganged up on him. They took his silence as their victory. “That’s what we have to say and you better take our words seriously. Or else, we are business elites who have multiple powerful resources and we have m

Arthur chuckled, his smile carrying a touch of sleaziness. “Oh, I see.” A realization dawned on Kaze. “Are you with quality control?” Several individuals in dark blue suits approached. The men and women carried files and documents. Kaze nodded without a word. “We are just here to announce the results. We shouldn’t be long.” Arthur came forward to engage with them. The group was likely given the heads-up as they had the right number of people. They swaggered into Rising Sun’s building. The general manager straightened up his tie in a fluster and walked out. None of the film productions made the cut yet, and the delay was costing the company money by the day. At this rate, the project would go down under. Eli, the general manager, rushed to the entrance upon learning the news. The review team was there to do one final check. The films would get the green light if the board found that everything was up to par. The head office would stop putting pressure on
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3557 A Bit Much
Given Kaze’s status, Alfonso knew better than to have him waiting under the hot sun. Of course, he would send his people to be on standby for Kaze’s arrival. Peter only came to the rescue when Kaze was pestered by some street gang. Alfonso’s omission of Kaze’s identity led to this hiccup. Kaze did not care one bit about the incident. Heck, he did not even bring it up. Arthur straightened his back nervously, becoming even more cautious behind the wheel. “You knew, but why didn’t you say anything, Mr. Lee? You didn’t even tell on us.” Arthur could not understand why. However, he had more respect for the man. “I didn’t see a point. You’ll learn what happens when you displease me, so I won’t bother telling you now.” Kaze was mild-mannered as ever. He spoke softly without a hint of anger. All the more Arthur revered him. “Mr. Lee, we didn’t do our jobs right. We didn’t know who you were.“But my duty is to protect you in the dark. “We saw you getting out of the train
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3556 Rising Sun
“Rising Sun is a media company. Several of their films are about to be released. They are trying to get them approved to air due to some censorship issues.” Arthur took out a document. “Are there any issues with the films? Why aren’t they approved yet?” Kaze asked curiously. Kaze had no idea. “There are some issues. They aren’t fit to be aired. “Typically, there aren’t a lot of restrictions for film productions so long as the themes aren’t sensitive topics. “But these films featured altered history. The company has been asked multiple times to make revisions, but the films still don’t make the cut.” The Viper’s Den’s members were not privy to the information. The Frosts were insignificant. Kaze was after the Frosts. Otherwise, the Viper’s Den would not waste its resources on a mere film production company. Jet’s investment of nearly ten million bucks in Rising Sun caught the Viper’s Den’s attention. The delayed approval of the films would be catastrophic to the in
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3555 New Identity
“It’s quite a bustle even when it’s late at night.” Kaze looked down from above and saw the bright lights. A street in the distance was brightly lit with many people working into the night. “The majority of people would do many things to make a living.” Arthur rarely observed these sights. “Thank you. Keep me in the loop of any progress. I’m curious as to what you’d do.” Kaze did not see a need to get involved with the minor stuff. He delegated the tasks to his people. “If you have time, why don’t you go out and have a bit of fun, Mr. Lee?” Arthur asked. The reason for Kaze’s trip was to deal with Jet. Kaze would get some satisfaction from upsetting Jet. “I don’t want to attract attention.” The last thing Kaze wanted was to blow his cover. From Kaze’s question, Arthur knew that Kaze was interested. “No. We can give you a whole new identity.” Arthur knew what to do. “I’ll leave you to it, but don’t take it too far,” Kaze replied. Still, Kaze was intrigued a
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3554 Fudge the Numbers
Katie was narrow-minded to spit out the unpleasant things. Her words would never harm Kaze. Kaze took the private elevator back to the penthouse for a rest. He had more important things to do. He needed to keep tabs on the Frosts. Leah’s business was none of Kaze’s concern. Sure, Leah was in a state, being manipulated by her mother and all. However, it was a family matter at the end of the day. Kaze had no rhyme or reason to get involved. Kaze soon put the whole thing behind him. Arthur was already there at the penthouse. As Kaze entered the room, Arthur jolted up from the couch. “Mr. Lee, this is the document you requested. It should have detailed information to give you a clearer idea of the situation.” Arthur put the papers in front of Kaze and grabbed him a bottle of water. Feeling hot from his walk back, Kaze took a sip and held the document up for a look. “I got to give it to the Frosts. They sure work in the shadows.” Kaze grinned. A strong opponent p

“Despite everything I’ve said, you still won’t listen! Kaze is a liar! He befriended you with a motive. Yet, you trust him. He’s a good friend to you? What do you take me for?” Katie could not put up with her daughter’s defiance. Leah must obey her because that was what a good daughter would do. “I see you as my mother. What about you? Am I a daughter to you?” Leah did not want to ask such a distressing question. However, there was no way around it. She was escaping reality. Still, she had to swallow the truth, however cruel. “What are you talking about? I wouldn’t raise you if I didn’t consider you my daughter.” Katie worked hard to keep a level head. The last thing she wanted was the whole thing to blow up into a bigger fight. She had a lot to do for the upcoming party. There was no time to lose in keeping her daughter happy. Besides, Leah was no longer a child. Yet, she was so defiant and rebellious. “Why do you plan on giving me away if I’m supposed to be your d
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3552 For My Benefit
Katie proudly made the statement, convinced that she had done a lot for her daughter. It was only right for Leah to be grateful and understand her sacrifice. To Katie’s surprise, Leah chuckled. “What else have you done for me? You never showed me any attention. You don’t know what I like. You have no idea what I want.” Leah finally saw her mother as the person she was. This side of Katie was terrifying. “What more do you want? Am I not supposed to work? Should I be spending every waking minute of the day with you?” Katie understood Leah’s needs. However, there was no way she could make it happen. It was not easy for a woman to take hold in the Northborn Group, much less secure a high position there. Katie went through great pains to get where she was today. Alas, Leah could not understand where she was coming from. “I’m not asking you to be with me every day. I’ve tried my best to do everything you asked of me, but you can’t even be there for me during my birthdays.
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3551 No Ulterior Motive
“Everything I do, I do for you. Get this straight. The guy approached you because of what I could bring to the table.” Katie was pissed by her daughter’s defiance which was becoming worse with age. “I know the kind of person he is. Without Kaze’s help, I wouldn’t have escaped. Where were you then? You’re in no position to say that. “Even if there’s something he’s after, what would he want from me? I have nothing to offer.” Leah did not believe a word Katie said. Clearly, Katie was out to get Kaze. “He’s nothing but a poor kid. Why are you blowing this out of proportion? I’ve clearly stated what needed to be done. Why are you still being stubborn?”Katie believed she had not raised her daughter right. Leah turned out pretty naïve. “I told you. He has no ulterior motive. He doesn’t know who I am. He doesn’t have any other intentions. I approached him, not the other way around.” Leah kicked herself for pulling a reckless stunt. All she did was give Kaze more problems. Kat
Guardian-In-Law Chapter 3550 Don't Appear Anymore
Leah hated her mother being unreasonable. “Don’t get the wrong idea. I fed you, I gave you clothes, I put a roof over your head, I gave you life! The least you could do is to listen to me!” Katie did not expect her daughter to go so far as to defy her. Kaze remained silent, knowing that no matter what he said, it would be meaningless to someone unwilling to listen. “Kaze, I’m sorry. It was my fault that you are in this mess. I’m a jinx…” Leah blamed herself for getting Kaze in trouble with her mother. If not because of her, he would never encounter her mother. “Shut it! Why are you apologizing!? He approached you with purpose and you can’t even see that? He’s not worthy of your time!” Katie was livid. She felt her daughter was blinded by emotions, incapable of making the right decision. And to make matters worse, the girl even apologized to Kaze—what nonsense! A poor man without any background was no match for her daughter and her status. He approached the girl becaus
