Guardian-In-Law by Five Generals novel Chapter 857

No one expected Lil Dee to be so blunt as to bring up Kaze’s touchy subject.

The clamoring pub fell silent.

Lil Dee’s team, Taz, and his sidekicks looked at Kaze curiously.

Most of them held Kaze in contempt.

Not wanting to put Kaze in the spot, Nancy said angrily, “Please show Mr. Lee some respect. He’s our owner, Lil Dee.”

“Ha!”

Lil Dee snorted and sneered. “So what? Can’t I be honest with the owner? It’s no secret that Mr. Lee took his wife’s family name. Was I wrong?”

While Lil Dee was right, he did not have to lay bare Kaze’s privacy.

Nancy was disgusted with Lil Dee.

The influencer, who was famed for his charity work and humility in public, acted high and mighty behind closed doors.

“Lil Dee, Mr. Lee represents Sky Ocean Corporation.”

Nancy stressed to remind Lil Dee that they were equal partners.

Given Kaze’s position as a Sky Ocean Corporation representative, any personal attacks would be considered inappropriate.

However, Nancy’s words insulted Lil Dee.

“Are you threatening me with Sky Ocean Corporation?”

Lil Dee jolted to his feet and flipped the table, sending the bottles and cans clattering to the ground.

Rose and her friends turned as white as a sheet.

Even the ever-composed Kaze furrowed his brows.

Provoked, Lil Dee shouted angrily, “Don’t forget that Sky Ocean Corporation sought me out multiple times until I eventually agreed to a deal. I have thousands of companies eager to work with me.”

Nancy was taken aback by Lil Dee’s reaction.

“Nancy doesn’t drink, so let’s not put her through that. You seem like a suave guy. You don’t have to take things far,” Kaze said indifferently, his gaze staring straight at Lil Dee.

Lil Dee raised a brow. Reading the dripping sarcasm in Kaze’s tone, he sneered. “What? Are you going to drink on her behalf?”

Kaze narrowed his eyes dangerously.

He wanted to move on from the matter, but Lil Dee would not drop it until someone finished the bottle.

Lil Dee was a petty man. He would not stop until he got his revenge.

Since branding Mountain Dew Estate was a strategy Darcy set out for Sky Ocean Corporation, Kaze could not ruin the partnership.

“Fine, I’ll drink.”

He calmly grabbed the bottle of Remy Martin cognac.

Kaze uncorked the bottle with his thumb and gulped down the alcohol.
