Guardian-In-Law by Five Generals novel Chapter 4

Looking at Kaze’s confident face, Darcy hesitated. She thought of her family’s current financial situation and it gave her no choice. She bit the bullet, got up, and said, “Grandfather, I’ll go and recover the debt.” 

“You stupid girl! Are you crazy? What if that gangster ripped your face apart? Henry wouldn’t want you then!” 

Agnes panicked. 

The others were shocked, including Master Quint. No one expected Darcy to take up the task. 

Samus and the others gloated at her. He then took a five-dollar bill and tossed it at Darcy. “This is for your bravery and for you to take the bus back.” 

Deborah crossed her arms and said with raised brows, “You agreed to go yourself. If anything happens to you, don’t blame us.” 

Kaze glared at the few of them coldly. He did not even want to argue with them because they were simply clowns. 

He held Darcy’s hand and left the mansion. 

Meanwhile, Darcy’s parents were giddy with anxiety. Agnes gritted her teeth, “We must ask Henry to help us, he’s our only hope. Henry has always liked Darcy…” 

… 

Meanwhile in Loco Town, Darcy held two bags of fruit in her hands as she reminded Kaze, “Remember, mind your words, don’t speak if you don’t know what’s going on. Don’t anger the man.” 

Kaze nodded. Darcy was slightly relieved. 

Just when they wanted to knock on Pietro’s office door, a series of hurried honks sounded behind them. 

A pink Porsche stopped beside the two of them. The window wound down to reveal Deborah’s mean face. 

“Geez, you two are really here to recover the debt? I thought you were just bluffing.” 

“Deborah? What are you doing here?” Darcy frowned and questioned her impatiently. 

“I’m here to buy a car. Unlike you two who are stupid enough to come here knowing that the guy will beat you up.” 

Deborah had a pair of sunglasses on and it amplified her arrogance. “After you two left, Grandfather distributed the bonus to all of us. We got an extra two million this year, and I’m buying myself a new car as a birthday present. Unlike you who can’t even afford a better restaurant on your birthday.” 

Darcy’s fists clenched upon hearing Deborah. She was slightly shaking. 

Kaze grinned and scoffed, “Deborah, it’s just two million, what’s there to show off? Sky High Investment Group hates people who like to show off the little money they have, like you. Don’t even think about getting the investment.” 

“You!” 

Deborah was furious. She scoffed and said, “You retard, you can really speak now. I hope you can keep it up when you ask Pietro for the money.” 

She got out of the car and strutted into Pietro’s office. 

Darcy and Kaze followed her inside. 

They entered a spacious office with a man wearing a flamboyant golden necklace. He had a saleswoman sitting on his lap and his hands were all over her voluptuous body. 

The terrible scar on his face could easily scare people off. 

The uninvited guests made Pietro angry. He shouted, “Who the f*ck are you? Get the hell out! Can’t you see I’m in the middle of something?” 

The man was as fierce as rumored. 

Pietro’s shout made Deborah sweat nervously. She stammered, “P-Pietro, I’m Deborah. Vincent recommended that I buy a car here.” 

Upon hearing Deborah, Pietro raised his brows and switched his annoyance for a wide smile. “Deborah Quint? I see. Welcome. Please have a seat.” 

He did receive a call from Vincent informing him of Deborah’s arrival. Since it was a request from a first-tier family, he had to oblige. 

He usually served customers with a strong background or reputation himself, which was one of his tactics of creating a connection with the powerful and wealthy. 

“And these two are…” Pietro asked when he saw two more people at the door. 

Seeing Pietro’s drastic change of attitude, Deborah felt relieved. 

She spoke as if she was seeking attention, “Pietro, remember the debt you owe the Quint family? These two are here to collect the debt from you. But don’t worry, I have nothing to do with this, I’m just here to buy a car.” 

“I see.”
