Chapter 51 Housewarming
After Darcy and Kaze went to Quintessential Group Headquarters in the morning, Agnes went out as well. As mentioned the other day, she wanted to hold a housewarming party and invite her old friends to dinner. She went out to find a good venue to host her friends. Cloud Nine was certainly off the list, so she went for the second option, Lily Garden Hotel, which was one of the better hotels in the city. The fee to host a party in Lily Garden was $5,000 per table. She was planning on having at least 20 tables for the party, so the price would rake up to $100,000, excluding food and drinks. Since her friends and neighbors were all middle-aged people, she planned to invite some performers or live bands as entertainment. After a rough calculation, she would need at least $200,000 to cover all the costs. Agnes did not want to spend that much money, so she wanted to look for a more affordable option. Then, she bumped into her former colleague from the hospital where she used

Chapter 52 Harsh Former Colleague
Agnes was skeptical but before she saw the final outcome, she would never simply deny Kaze. Kaze had proven himself many times that he was well connected to a lot of powerful and influential friends who would come to his aid at critical moments. Darcy chose to believe in Kaze as well. “Alright. Kaze, can you accompany Mom to Lily Garden Hotel later? I have a site visit.” “Not a problem.” Kaze nodded. He went out of the house and summoned two Tiger Fangs’ soldiers. Since yesterday afternoon, Tiger Fangs had taken over the security of the residential district. Kaze handed them a cigarette each and said, “My wife is going out. Follow her and protect her, but don’t let her know. If anything happens, deal with it. If it’s beyond your control, call me.” He had to accompany Agnes to Lily Garden Hotel later and could not be by Darcy’s side. Worried about Darcy’s safety, he put the two men in charge of protecting her. He noticed yesterday that the entire Tiger Fangs Militia

Chapter 53 I Am Mr. Lee
Hellen saw Agnes pacing back and forth at the hotel entrance earlier and dared not enter. She believed Agnes was just pretending to have the money. She turned to her son-in-law and said, “Sam, let’s go make the deposit. It’s a waste of time trying to argue with someone who doesn’t even dare to go into the hotel. Only money makes the world go round.” “Alright. I'll make the necessary reservation.” Sam Faye did not even look at Agnes or Kaze and headed into the hotel. “Agnes, toodle-oo.” Hellen strutted into the hotel. Agnes was upset by Hellen’s sneers. She tugged at Kaze’s arm and said, “My dear son-in-law, let us go and book the tables that are worth twenty thousand each!” “Yes, ma’am!” Kaze brought Agnes into the hotel as Hellen and her family were already talking to the hotel staff. Sam said, “Hello, we came earlier and wanted to book Fortune Hall for tomorrow. The sign says it’s still available for booking, right?” “Yes, Mr. Faye. Fortune Hall is still availab

Chapter 54 Slap Sam
Even though Hellen and her family saw Kaze beside Agnes from the start, they never took him seriously. When Kaze said he was the one who booked the Ocean Hall, Hellen grunted and scoffed. “Agnes, who might this be? Don’t tell me he’s like you, pretending to be rich.” Judging from Agnes’ reaction, Hellen was sure Agnes did not know Kaze was the one who booked Ocean Hall and assumed Kaze was impersonating the actual person who booked it. Realization struck as Agnes turned to Kaze. Mr. Lee? Kaze’s last name was Lee! “He’s my son-in-law, Kaze Lee!” She pulled Kaze closer to herself and stared at Hellen proudly. Hellen’s son-in-law, Sam, was only booking Fortune Hall, where the tables cost $10,000 each, whereas her son-in-law, Kaze, knew the owner of the hotel who owed him a favor. They were able to get a $15,000 discount, so they would only have to pay $5,000 per table. Kaze was well-connected! “Kaze? Kaze Lee?” To Agnes’ surprise, Hellen and her family reacted stra

Chapter 55 Darcy in Danger
“Manager Brent!” The hotel staff bowed to the leader of the group walking in. The man was Tom Brent, the general manager of Lily Garden Hotel. Tom grunted at his subordinate before striding over to Kaze attentively. He bent over and asked, “Mr. Kaze Lee, am I right?” The hotel staff was stunned, and so were Hellen and her family. Even Agnes could not believe her eyes. The hotel manager bowed to Kaze?! This time, they heard the manager call Kaze’s full name. Kaze was the Mr. Lee who booked Ocean Hall?!“Yes, I am.” Kaze nodded. Tom sweated profusely. An important VIP came to his hotel to book an event hall, yet was mistaken as an idiot and thrown out by his staff. Tom apologized, “I am so sorry about this, Mr. Lee. It is our humble mistake. I’ll punish the one responsible for this.” The hotel staff turned pale when he heard his manager. Hellen and her family were shocked as well. They did not think Kaze was the one who booked Ocean Hall with each table costi

Chapter 56 Throw This Woman Out
Ren got the news from one of his friends who went out for a phone call earlier. His friend told him that Kaze and Agnes came to the hotel to book Ocean Hall and almost got thrown out. “Yes, Young Master Joestar. Mr. Lee is hosting a housewarming party for his mother-in-law tomorrow.” Tom felt strange. Why would Young Master Joestar be concerned about such trivial matters? “Hmph. That stupid idiot has the money to host a housewarming party? It seems like I’ve underestimated him,” Ren said with a scoff. He then asked, “Are they gone?” “Mr. Lee went off after a phone call, only Mrs. Quint is here. I have to finalize the details of the party with her later. She also requested me to chase another group of customers out, who booked Fortune Hall.” “Chasing my customers out? Does she really think she can do whatever she wants just because her son-in-law has some money? I shall let her know who has the power to do so!” Ren’s expression turned grim. He looked at Tom and said, “Come

Chapter 57 Ren’s Acting
Tom came over immediately. Ren slapped the man multiple times before he could get a word in. “Nice!” The crowd cheered and praised Ren for being a sensible man. Ren then kicked Tom away and shouted, “Get the hell out of my hotel! How dare you do this to Mrs. Quint? You are fired!” After scolding Tom, he then looked at Hellen and her family, who were completely stunned. “So you were the ones who tried to get Mrs. Quint thrown out of the hotel? Do you think booking Fortune Hall makes you superior to others? Give them back their deposit and tell them to leave!” Hellen and her family left with disappointment as well. “Ren, thank you so much. If not for you, I would be really embarrassed!” With just a few tricks, Ren turned the situation in his favor and won Agnes’ heart. The woman was grateful for his help. “Mrs. Quint, I like Darcy and it’s no secret. This is nothing at all.” Ren then helped her up and said, “You don’t have to worry about the party tomorrow as well.

Chapter 58 Unite and Abdicate
“Yeah, we are threatening you with our resignations. What are you gonna do about it?” Luke grinned as he looked at Darcy. “Darcy, you should know that once the three of us leave, the project will be halted. I don’t think you can find anyone to replace us in such a short notice. Maybe in two days, Mr. Quint and his son will be begging us to come back.” The two Mr. Quints were Rudy and Samus. Randal, Luke, and Edward seemed to be under the impression that they still worked for the father and son. They would not want to lose the chance to embezzle money. “Fine. Let’s go. It seems like she doesn’t need us. It’s time to type my resignation letter.” Randal whistled and signaled the other two before they walked to the door. “You…” Darcy was furious and helpless. The three of them caught her between a rock and a hard place.As the three of them were leaving, the door was kicked open and a man barged in. “Darcy, if they want to resign, then let them go. The world won’t stop spi

Chapter 59 Behemoths of the Industry
“Ms. Lewis! I’m Luke Kang. We met before at the Sales Society’s meeting. We even got a picture together after you were awarded.” “Mr. Peak, I admire your work…” Randal, Luke, and Edward went to their counterparts with utmost flattery. If they caught their attention, who were basically the behemoths of the industry, they might get a chance to join Perfect World Group, which could launch their new careers. “Excuse me, we are here for an interview. Please don’t stand in our way.” Randal and the other two were stunned. “Interview? I thought you three were just scouted by Perfect World Group.” “We have resigned from Perfect World Group.” Resigned from Perfect World Group, a company worth billions? What was he talking about? Andy said they were here for an interview… at Passion Fragrance District?” Andy, Fish, and Trevor walked past the three men and went up to Darcy. “Ms. Quint, I’m here to interview for the role of Project Manager at Passion Fragrance District. This

Chapter 60 Instil Confidence
“What? You fired us and still want us to sign the NCA?!” Randal, Luke, and Edward were infuriated. They originally wanted to jump ship to their competitors. With the company secrets they possessed, not only could they take revenge on Darcy, but they could also earn favors and seize more benefits for themselves. If they signed the non-compete agreement, they would be bound by law and nothing they had in mind would materialize. “Don’t want to sign?” Kaze narrowed his eyes dangerously. “We are not signing! What are you gonna do about it?” The three of them wanted to leave. Darcy’s expression turned bitter. She saw the hatred in their eyes and she knew they would definitely take revenge on the company. Kaze pulled his phone out. “Arrest them!” As soon as his voice subsided, several police officers came into the office. “Randal Song, Luke Kang, Edward Canopy, the three of you are suspected of engaging in unlawful activities such as embezzlement of company funds and mor
