Semua Bab Guardian-In-Law: Bab 1851 - Bab 1860

Agar pulled a punch, the blow rolling in the wind, toward Kaze’s cheek. “It has been years since I was hit in the face. “For that reason, I’m going to pulverize yours!” “Oh, really?” Kaze chuckled and took a step forward while launching his hand. Agar’s eyes widened. He realized that Kaze’s attack came on stronger than before. More devastatingly, he could not dodge the attack either. “Smack!” Agar was dumbstruck. Without time to unpack, he flew back and crashed into the wall with a loud thud. “I guess you have not learned your lesson, old fart. You’re still not taking this fight seriously. “Maybe you should put more effort next time.” Looking at the handprint on Agar’s other cheek, Kaze said with a sarcastic smile. “You!” Agar struggled to get back on his feet, his hand reaching his hot cheek. Kaze’s taunting only turned the shock in Agar’s eyes into rage. Why? Why could he not evade Kaze’s blow? He was on the Hidens’ payroll, once undefeated on th

Fanny snapped a menacing look at Agar. The humiliation faced by Agar gave Fanny ammo to run her mouth. Agar expressed his shame without a word. Kaze beat him up to the point of doubting himself. After pouring out her grievance, Fanny finally settled down. She understood that Kaze beat Agar into submission. In other words, Fanny was unlikely to force Miru to go with her. “Do you have any idea what I am capable of now, lady?” Kaze’s words rang in Fanny’s ear. “Like I said, tell Isabelle that I will take the lives of a hundred Hiden members if Alan is harmed. “Miru is a friend. I won’t allow her to do anything against her wishes. “If she doesn’t wish to marry Jerome, no one can take her away from Lilyrose.” Kaze’s promise extended beyond the confines of the office and Lefteria Group. He would not allow Miru to be taken out of the city against her wish. His tone carried confidence. Even Miru gave Kaze a complicated look. For once, she noticed that there was an

Fanny scoffed and said grimly, “I have said everything that needs to be said. It’s clear that you’ve made up your mind. Suit yourself.” She then turned on her heel to leave. Before walking out the door, Fanny took another glance at Kaze and said curtly, “Miru is the only reason I’m dropping the whole matter. “But I’m warning you. Stay away from Miru. “She’s a member of the Harrowdale Hidens. Privilege is written in her stars, and she doesn’t mingle with the likes of you. “You can’t bridge the gap between you through your own efforts. “That’s all I have to say. Know your place.” No one in the family knew Miru better than Fanny. Miru was proud, never paying attention to ordinary men. However, the incident today blew Miru away. Kaze took her defense at the cost of upsetting both the Harrowdale Hidens and the Westeros Fowlers, and that left a huge impression on Miru. Fanny picked up on the shift in Miru’s facial expression. She was afraid Miru would get any ideas a

While it was only a rumor, there was a possibility the rumors might come true. As a result, following the shift of power dynamics in the mayor’s office, the public did not seem to have much faith in Sky Ocean Corporation. Darcy was furious upon learning the rumors. She sent her men to work, determined to find the troublemaker behind the gossip. The outcome left her indignant and helpless. The Quints were the driving force behind the hostile takeover of Sky Ocean Corporation. More accurately, Master Quint planned the whole thing. The seemingly detailed rumors and believable bad press were released by the Quints through various channels too. “What is Grandpa trying to pull?” Darcy rubbed her temples. She could not figure out Master Quint’s motives. Clearly, the Quints could not have pulled the whole thing off without help. Their finances were in the drain, to begin with. However, Darcy got an inkling after a call moments ago. Deborah returned to Lilyrose out of

Once the Quints returned to the main house, the family’s attitude toward Darcy would only take a turn for the worse. Master Quint and the others had a long history of using people and then throwing them away like trash. It was nothing new. Darcy did not want to be stabbed in the back again. She hoped the main family would not welcome the Quints back. That way, a humble pie would be shoved down the throats of Master Quint and the rest of the family, and they would not harass her any further. “What? Nothing to do with you?” Unable to believe her eyes, Deborah glared at her. “You carry the family bloodline, Darcy. You will forever be part of the family.“You have to obey Grandpa, or you’re turning your back on your family. “You’ll have to hand over your shares in Sky Ocean Corporation and Shangrila Group to the Ridgesouth Quints too. We won’t take no for an answer. “I’m warning you, Darcy. Things will only get worse from here if you don’t do as you’re told. Our family is
