Guardian-In-Law by Five Generals novel Chapter 694

Chapter 694 Confiscate, Retire 

Hearing Steve’surrendering his entire assets without a doubt, many were deeply impressed by his resolution. 

He surrendered his assets just to avoid a disastrous end because he offended Kaze. “Well, confiscate his assets then.” 

Kaze did not take the money for himself as he was not interested in Steve’s assets or anything. 

He then added, “As for your business here in Melrose, I want you to put Miru in charge. You can retire now.” 

Kaze already had a plan to boost Miru’s power and reputation, so this would be a great chance. 

In addition, he could save himself and Darcy a lot of trouble. 

Miru was stunned. She did not expect Kaze to be this bold and force Steve to hand over his power to her. 

She looked at Albert and realized her cousin was quiet. 

She grumbled inwardly. 

Kaze was smart enough to flatter her in front of Albert. No wonder Albert would allow him to steal all the limelight. 

As for Steve, he was devastated. He did not expect Kaze to force him to depower himself. 

This decision would affect his influence and position in Melrose greatly. 

Losing his wealth was not that devastating as he could earn it back, but once he retired, there would be no coming back anymore. 

“Thank you for sparing my life.” 

Despite his heart bleeding from losing everything like power and wealth, Steve was forced to thank Kaze. 

He regretted not listening to the professor and finally realized what disaster the professor meant. 

Shane came after getting the news and he too was stunned. 

He originally thought of using Kaze’s hands to remove Steve so that he could be

the next kingpin. 

Yet his plans were ruined with just one word from Kaze. 

The kingpin of Melrose was no more. 

As of today, the Lee family of Melrose had officially retired from the scene. 

The news shocked the underworld of Melrose and Lilyrose. 

Steve took the professor and lost his position as the kingpin. 

How ridiculous was that? 

Melrose had a number of powerful forces eyeing Steve’s position. 

Now that he was removed, they grew restless. 

However, the next news caught them off guard because the goddaughter of Alan Cummingham, Miru, would officially take over Steve’s business in the 

underworld. 

It was made possible by the man who forced Steve to retire. 

The news deterred all interested parties. No one dared to be nosy anymore. 

The underworld of Melrose saw a peaceful and safe transition of power, but that was a story for another day. 

Kaze and Professor Whiteman then left the estate and went back to Lilyrose. 

Steve was also traveling with them with a ton of gifts. 

When he appeared before Agnes and Hector with the gifts, the entire Quint family was shocked.
