Guardian-In-Law by Five Generals novel Chapter 61

Chapter 61 Mother-In-Law’s Misunderstanding 

They never thought that things would take an unexpected tu 

“It’s over! It’s over! Once that woman gets to my men, when she 

takes control of Quintessential, our family will be pressured! We soon won’t be able to make a stand in the family!” 

Samus’ words devastated the whole family. 

To him, Darcy was just working for the family, the best employee in the company. 

She did all the heavy lifting but reaped no rewards or benefits. She 

would even have to take the blame at times. 

They could never accept Darcy above them once the tables had 

turned. 

Rudy had a more elaborate thought. 

After all the shady things they had done, once Darcy took full control 

of the company, she might call the police on them. 

He looked at Deborah in fear and said, “Deb, I think you should call Vincent now. Only he can help us now!” 

He would rather the Hanser family take over Passion Fragrance Project than Darcy. 

Deborah called Vincent immediately 

After the brief call, Deborah said, “Dad, Vincent just asked his 

grandfather. He said if we could locate Jean Lander, then they could 

pin Darcy down and kick her out of the company.” 

“Jean Lander? What does that woman have to do with all this?”

Rudy was baffled. Jean used to be his secretary in Quintessential Group but she had gone missing. 

It was her missing that almost caused Quintessential Group to lose the pre-sale certificate. 

“I don’t know but Vincent wants us to locate her. They will also help.” 

Rudy clenched his teeth and nodded. 

“Fine. We must locate Jean by all means!” 

Back at Horizon Mirror, Kaze came home with Darcy once she 

finished work. 

When they entered the house, the atmosphere felt tense. 

Hector and Agnes were in the living room with an expressionless look on their faces. 

Kaze did not know what happened. He went over and asked, “Mom, have you finalized the details with the hotel for the housewarming party tomorrow?” 

“How dare you ask me about the hotel?” 

Agnes bolted up and slapped him. 

The sudden slap left a red handprint on Kaze’s face. 

He did not dodge. 

Agnes was not only Darcy’s mother, she was also his mother-in-law. 

From the day he moved back to Lilyrose, he swore to take care of Agnes and Hector and would never disrespect them no matter what they did to him. 

“Mom, why did you slap Kaze?! What happened?” 

+25 BONUS 

Darcy was stunned for a moment before reacting to what happened. She came over immediately and questioned her mother. 

“He knows exactly what happened. Ask him why he lied to m 

Agnes was infuriated. 

“Kaze, what did you do?” 

Darcy felt terrible as she stared at the red handprint on Kaze’s face. 

Kaze must have angered her mother terribly, otherwise, she would not have slapped him so hard. 

They were still on good terms when they left for the hotel earlier in the day. 

Kaze calmly said, “Mom, I don’t understand what is going on.” 

“Still trying to play pretend aren’t you?” 

Agnes 

es shouted, “You lied to me and Darcy, saying that you know the owner of Lily Garden Hotel and you already booked Ocean Hall! But, it turned out that the Mr. Lee who booked Ocean Hall wasn’t you!” 

She was fuming like a volcano erupting. 

She was thrown on the street before a crowd and called a thief. She even embarrassed herself in front of her former colleague, Hellen.
