Guardian-In-Law

Chapter 25 Fawning

Ned glared at his wife. He then turned to Darcy, who was mortified, and bowed apologetically.

“Ms. Quint, I am so sorry, please don’t turn yourself in or whatever. I should be punished for what I did to you, you have every right to hit

me!”

He then slapped himself a few times.

Nara was stunned by her husband’s action but she dared not say a word. She knew her husband must have offended some powerful people.

“Chief Brooks, uh…”

Darcy and her parents were stunned as well.

Then, Kaze showed up. Darcy asked hurriedly, “Kaze, what is going

on?”

“I went to the Housing Department, beat him up, and he swore not to take revenge on us,” Kaze said with a smile.

Darcy and her parents then realized Ned was covered in injuries.

Ned then said timidly, “Yes, yes. Mr. Lee has taught me a lesson and I learned what I did wrong. I will never do it again.”

“Chief Brooks, you’re not taking revenge anymore?”

Darcy was still concerned. She was afraid that Ned simply agreed not to take revenge now because Kaze beat him up but went against his words after they left.

“No, no, no. Ms. Quint, I will never take revenge on you even if I have the nerves. Besides, Mayor Brooks has also taught me a lesson.

Ned wished he could lower his head down to the floor.

Then, he took a stack of documents out from his briefcase and handed them to Darcy respectfully. “These are the pre-sale certificates for Passion Fragrance District. Please have a look.”

Darcy was stunned even when she accepted the documents.

Kaze went to the Housing Department, beat up Ned Brooks, and startled the mayor. Then, the mayor taught Ned a lesson and made him apologize to Darcy, and surrender the pre-sale certificate?

Darcy and her parents found it unbelievable but it was actually happening before their eyes.

After they went home, knowing that the problem had been solved, the family finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Nevertheless, Agnes nagged at Kaze for his recklessness. “Kaze, you almost got us all in trouble! If not for the mayor who is understanding, you’ll get us all in serious trouble.”

Kaze simply nodded.

The next morning, Kaze’s phone rang.

“Mr. Chairman, the developer of Horizon Mirror Mansion, Bruno Bandino of the Heavensward Group, just called. He said his cousin runs a furniture company and they specialize in building custom furniture. I believe the mansion is still unfurnished, do you want to browse their collection?”

It was Ray who called.

“Sure. I’ll go have a look.” Kaze nodded.

Ray was being considerate since the mansion was indeed unfurnished. He needed to buy a set of furniture.

“I’ll tell my secretary, Snow Frost, to pick you up. She’s also an employee of Perfect World now, and she will be tasked to serve you from now on.”

“Sure,” Kaze said.

An hour later, Kaze and Snow, together with the manager of Heavensward Group, Bruno, and the owner of Saika Furniture, Brock Bandino, visited the showroom to have a look at the products.

“Mr. Lee, what do you think of the rosewood study furniture set?” Bruno asked respectfully.

“I am sure that once it’s laid out in the study room, it will be the most elegant study room in the city.” Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

“Bruno is right. The entire set of rosewood study furniture is designed

by Saika Furniture’s chief designer and handmade by a master

carpenter. There is only one set in the entire world…”

“Just name the price.”

Kaze did not bother listening to Bruno’s sales pitch, he simply stopped the man and asked for the price.

He was fond of the rosewood furniture as well. If placed in the study room, his father-in-law would like it.

Bruno said timidly, “It’s not always about the money. If Mr. Lee likes it and considers it a gift…”

Kaze glanced at him.

Snow then said, “Mr. Bandino, Mr. Lee’s favor isn’t something you can buy with a ten million dollar furniture set. You better put your thoughts away and talk business. Let’s deal fairly.”
