Waves of criticism crashed down on Kaze.No one took Kaze seriously, and his requests were dismissed. These people believed Kaze was not worthy of their attention. So Lefteria Group pinned the blame on him by mistake. He was fortunate enough to be alive now that his innocence was proven. Kaze should be grateful. He was out of line to demand apologies. Ignoring the group, Kaze fixated his gaze on Alan. He then proposed a worse, crazier, and more moronic request. At least that was what everybody believed it to be. “Because you played along, I somehow got tangled in this and became your pawn, Alan.” Kaze’s voice was cold as he said, “Don’t you owe me an apology too?” Alan had explained that he had been unconscious for the last two days and only came back to life this morning. Still, Kaze knew that Alan must have known about Leo’s plans before he devised a plan with Charles to fake his death. In other words, Alan knew Kaze would be framed as the killer after his suppo
“Mr. Lee, you are overstating it. Let’s go to my office for tea and I’ll make it up to you with a gift,” Alan said respectfully. “I am not interested in your gifts.” Kaze shook his head. The others were annoyed by his arrogant attitude. “Kaze Lee, Master Cummingham once ruled the underworld as a kingpin, he’s not someone you should talk to in that tone.” “You are just a guy who married into a second-tier family! Someone who has no status or position at all!” “Master Cummingham is showing you enough respect just by talking to you. Don’t push it!” Kaze instantly became a common target. Miru strode over to him and scolded him in a low voice. “Kaze, my godfather is lowering himself to apologize to you! You better just accept it! If you continue to give him a hard time, even if my godfather is tolerant of you, what about the others? “Others might go after Darcy and her family just to flatter him because of what you did. Can you just save Darcy some trouble? Aunt Agnes woul
The voice sounded firm and steady but strangely, when it came from the entrance, it silenced the entire room. Everyone turned to the entrance. A small group of people, who were closest to the entrance, were horrified the moment they saw the person. The horror spread like cancer in the room. Even Alan, on the stage, was stunned for a moment before his body started shaking. Then, he bent over for a bow and spoke in a high-pitched voice due to the uncontrollable excitement. “C-Chief Commander Lang! Chief Commander Draco Lang! Sir!” The entire River Watcher Inn was filled with continuous noises of astonishment. The crowd bent over like a wave sweeping over them. Multiple pairs of eyes shot a glance of fear and reverence at Kaze. The retard son-in-law of the Quints called in the chief commander with just one phone call?! Who exactly was Kaze Lee? Even Alan had a few more peeks at Kaze. Kaze was indeed the chairman of Perfect World Group. Even the richest man in the c
“Miru?” Draco looked at the woman that he had no fond impressions of. The woman was self-righteous and always stood against his boss. Even though his boss did not take her seriously, he had always wanted to teach the woman a lesson for being rude to his boss. Unfortunately, Miru was Darcy’s good friend and he dared not offend his boss’ wife in any way. “Chief Commander Lang, I am Miru Scarlet,” Miru introduced herself confidently. Although Draco’s position refrained him from openly reprimanding Miru, he could not help but give her a few stern words so that she could behave better in the future. “Miru Scarlet, just because you are Albert’s cousin, it doesn’t mean you can look down on people. Albert and I are friends but if you continue to be rude, not even he can stop me from teaching you a lesson.” Miru was stunned. She did not understand the prejudice the chief commander had against her. She looked up for a better look at Draco. She somehow found him to be familiar a
Alan knelt instinctively. Even when his knees hit the ground, he still could not believe Kaze was the God of War! Draco’s response toward Kaze explained everything. Other than the God of War, who else in the world could order Draco around like a butler? Alan was horrified. Kaze, the well-known useless son-in-law of the Quints, was actually the youngest God of War in the country’s history. Those who laughed at him were the real clowns! “Alan Cummingham, do you accept my terms?” Kaze asked condescendingly. If Alan accepted all his terms earlier, things would not have reached this stage. “I accept!” Alan said without a second thought. Not only that, he even said, “It was my mistake for dragging the God of War into Lefteria Group’s affairs! I am willing to offer the company to you and Ms. Quint as a token of apology!” Lefteria Group was his life and blood, but he had no other choice. With Kaze’s power, he could kill Alan like squashing an ant. The only way Alan coul
“Yes, Mr. Lee!” Alan replied with a stern look and swore to bring the secret to his grave if he really died next time. “I deserved this!” While kneeling on the floor, Leo lost all hope to live. He picked up the knife before him and aimed at his neck. Slash! He slit his main artery and soon fell onto his own puddle of blood. Kaze glanced at the body coldly, showing no mercy or compassion for Leo, and walked away. When the people who were asked to leave earlier saw Draco coming out, they mustered their courage to swarm into the room again. The first thing they saw in the room was Leo’s body in the puddle of blood. “Leo slit his own neck!” Everyone was horrified, shocked and curious. After exchanging a quick look, the crowd looked around for Kaze but Kaze had already disappeared beyond the exit. Alan took a deep breath and said, “I have an announcement to make. From today onward, Lefteria Group will join Perfect World Group as its subsidiary. At the same time, I will
“He got news about someone slitting his own throat in River Watcher Inn!” Samus said. The Quints exchanged a quick look before they cheered loudly. “Slit his own throat?! It must be Kaze!” “Once Kaze died, Lefteria Group won’t come after us anymore!” Everyone in the family cheered except for Darcy. The immense sorrow and grief knocked her out instantly. Agnes and the others quickly placed her on the couch and attempted to revive her. After a while, she finally regained consciousness. “I want to see Kaze for one last time!” Darcy’s eyes were blank and her face was emotionless. It was as though she lost all signs of life, and it scared her mother. Agnes was afraid that Darcy would do something crazy, such as taking her own life. She quickly said, “Darcy, you are not feeling well now. You can’t go. Samus and the others had agreed to take care of Kaze’s funeral.” “Yeah!” Samus gloated and said, “I even got him a tomb and a beautiful urn for his ashes! Darcy, don’t w
“Kaze? How did you come back alive? Did you even go to River Watcher Inn?!” Master Quint asked nervously as he looked at Kaze in disbelief. The others were nervous as well. If Kaze had not gone to River Watcher Inn to apologize, Lefteria Group would probably come after their entire family. Samus and the others looked at him with hostility. They were ready to apprehend him and send him to River Watcher Inn themselves just to make sure that he would die for good this time. “I went, and I came back,” Kaze said emotionlessly. He knew what they were thinking. “You’re lying! Why would Lefteria Group let you come back? You must be hiding somewhere else and didn’t even go to apologize!” Deborah shouted. Samus rolled his sleeves and said, “No, we have to send him there ourselves! Guys, come on! If he refuses to go, we’ll make him! Tie him up and we’ll send him there ourselves!” Kaze might be strong but there were several men in the family who were confident they could apprehend
Kaze looked up to Boris barging through the door with his trusted aides. The crowd shied away, not wanting to be caught in the crossfire. The deaths of his son and wife had driven Boris into insanity, and he was out for blood. Anyone would go crazy in the same situation. Boris stared at the bodies of his son and wife menacingly. His eyes turned red at Naomi’s headless corpse.Kaze killed his son, murdered his wife, and beheaded her right in front of Boris. Boris would not stop until Kaze was dead. “Kill him! Kill him!”Boris pointed at Kaze and shouted maniacally, “I don’t care what it takes, but I want him dead!” The deaths of his wife and son were infuriating enough. Boris was aware that Naomi and Rhys would go to Kaze, looking for trouble. He deliberately stayed behind the scenes, giving his wife a chance to punish and kill Kaze. To buy his wife some time to take care of business, Boris stayed on to have drinks with Robin. However, Naomi and Rhys were killed
The security team recoiled in screams and dropped their weapons. Before the musclemen knew it, Kaze raised his sword and inched closer. The blade flashed, its motion a blur.“Slash!” The menacing blade flickered across the throats of the musclemen. A dozen Roads’ fighters fell limp amid the high-pitched squawking. Blood spewed out of the thin slits of their throats. One dozen men breathed their last. The bodies on the floor scared the crowd stiff. No one expected Kaze to be so strong. Kaze was able to come on his own despite the siege. “Get him! Kill him!” Naomi had completely lost it. She yelled at the veteran bruisers, “Kill the asshole! Avenge my son!” The senior fighters were so eager to frame Kaze before. Now, they were scared stiff. Naomi’s order put them in the spot. While they hesitated and even released their grip on their weapons, Kaze struck. “Swoosh!” Kaze swung the sword at the senior fighters. The fighters collapsed to the ground, wailing
Rhys lay limp on the floor, his face forever frozen in disbelief.The crowd was stunned, feeling chills down their spines. One minute ago, Rhys was alive and kicking. However, Kaze took his life with just one squeeze. Kaze’s aggression and hostility when ending Rhys scared them. “Ah! My son!” Reality sunk in after a brief pause. Naomi plunged toward her son’s body with a pale face. Despite shaking Rhys, Naomi shuddered to find that he was no more. She fell on her bottom. It was every parent’s worst nightmare. Besides, she was there to witness the death of her son. The feeling could drive her over the edge. Moments later, Naomi lifted her head, bloody tears running down her eyes. She yelled at Kaze hysterically, “You did this, Kaze! You did this!“Kill him! Kill the jerk!“I want his life for taking my son’s!” Losing her head, Naomi commanded the Roads’ musclemen. The crowd backed away so as not to be caught in the line of fire. “Kill him!” The Roads’ secu
“Rhys, are you still putting this on Kaze?” With Rhys backing down, Collier seized the opportunity to put him down. “Smack!” Naomi stood in defense of her son and slapped Collier in the face. Caught off guard, Collier took the hit. Her long nails left a bloody trail across Collier’s cheek. Naomi’s attack came out of nowhere, proving Collier’s point. Rhys was indeed trying to set Kaze up. However, most of those present were on good terms with the Roads while others simply loved the drama without being in the line of fire. “Cut the crap, Collier!” Naomi narrowed her eyes dangerously and sternly argued, “Kaze assaulted my son and tried to silence him. Everybody can bear witness to the incident. “He broke my son’s limbs. “You’re supposed to be the deputy chief of the South River State Branch. Yet, you defend the maniac. I suspect that he bribed you.“Just stop talking! You’re just embarrassing your family and the South River State Branch! “It’s evident that Kaze
At this moment, Collier had no choice but to use the Viper’s Den authority to deter the raging crowd. “Deputy Chief Ettinger, you better not use that on us.” Naomi scoffed, “Open your eyes and see the one who’s disrespecting the Viper’s Den—it’s Kaze Lee! He knows the chief of the Execution Hall is in River Watcher Inn but he tried to murder my son openly! Does he show any respect for the organization? “It’s amusing that you are still protecting this man here! I think you are the one who has forgotten your identity and what you should be doing!” Naomi had been arguing with people since she was young and she was not afraid of Collier and his so-called authority. As she spoke sharply and relentlessly, she accused Collier of his negligence of duty and did not hold back at all. Even Collier found it difficult to counter her. He said coldly, “Mrs. Road, I question your choice of words. The accuser knows better than the accused about what is going on. “You accused Kaze right in
“He thinks he’s above the law! He’s arrogant!” “He really thinks with the mayor behind his back, he can do whatever he wants in Riverbank? Not even the mayor himself is this arrogant and reckless!” “I thought he was here to apologize to the Road family but he’s here to provoke all of us!” “If I’m Chief Hill, I would slap the shit out of him!” Listening to his followers and his family members criticizing Kaze indignantly, a grin appeared on Rhys’ face. From the moment Kaze hit him at the mall, he decided to ruin Kaze’s life. Kaze’s death would only be the start. Sasha, Darcy, and every beautiful woman around Kaze would eventually be his sex slaves! Kaze did not argue with them, he even stopped Collier from standing up for him. These people were determined to pin the blame on him, explanations would mean nothing; especially foolish toward these people who were hellbent to see him dead. They knew better than Kaze what he actually did. Kaze simply smiled and watched t
The middle-aged woman was beautiful and shared a resemblance with Rhys. Her expression darkened, her eyes filled with anxiety. She was Naomi Road, Boris’ wife who was ten-plus years younger than him and Rhys’ mother. Kaze scanned the surroundings but did not see Boris anywhere. Naomi strode into the crowd and saw Rhys on the ground, covered in his own blood, and Kaze, who stood nonchalantly as if he was not part of the situation. Her face further darkened. “Rhys, what happened? Why is your head bleeding again? What happened to your nose?!” She turned to the crowd and shouted, “Who hit my son? Who did it!?” “Mother, help me…” Rhys cried even louder in his mother’s presence, saying, “It’s him! It’s Kaze Lee! He found out that we asked Chief Hill for help and he knew he’d be punished soon, so he got anxious and slapped me! “I fell and hit my head on the pavement. He then stomped on my face too! He disrespected our family and Chief Hill altogether! “He even said no on
The second group of people had accents from all over the place, seemingly tourists who came to Riverbank for vacation. When they arrived, Rhys raised his voice and cried louder. “Kaze Lee is trying to kill me! It hurts! He thinks he’s beyond the law, he thinks he’s stronger than Chief Hill! What did I do to you…” Rhys lived up to his reputation as the owner of an agency for actors and actresses. While he cried, he painted himself with blood, adding to his already messy appearance. “Rhys Road, you are shameless!” As more and more people gathered, Collier got anxious. He stepped forward and bellowed, “You’re accusing Kaze! You think Chief Hill doesn’t know that?” “Mhmm. Interesting.” Kaze looked at Rhys covered in blood, his nose still bleeding. The gaze from his eyes turned icy cold as he stared at the idiot. “Who is this punk? Why is he causing a scene here?” “Doesn’t he know Chief Hill is here at River Watcher Inn? How dare he! He’s even trying to kill someone?!”
“How dare you break Rhys’ legs! You’re dead!” “I heard you are a live-in husband with a beautiful wife. Too bad. Your wife is going to be a widow after today.” “Maybe we can help her with that, let her have some fun while you are gone.” “Hahaha…” Rhys’ followers went up to Kaze and Collier, surrounding and mocking them. They were furious, seemingly ready to avenge Rhys, but no one took action other than spewing empty threats. Kaze raised his brows, looking scornful. They were trying to provoke him to attack them, but the fools got the wrong person. Kaze was not someone who could be easily angered. Collier noticed the people were closing in on them and might jump on them at any time. He bellowed, “Rhys Road, stop this nonsense at once. Chief Robin Hill is inside River Watcher Inn and he’s meeting with Kaze!” When Robin’s name was mentioned, the people around them froze and helpless twitches could be seen on their faces. Their anger subsided a little. Even Rhys calm
