Chapter 1020 Four of Lilyrose’s Finest “He’s the Quints’ son-in-law. He scammed Shangrila Group from the top three families...” Zenny gave Noah a bit of Kaze’s back story and laughed wickedly.
“Besides, have you heard about his wife, Darcy Quint? “She is one hot babe.” Noah remembered Darcy because he had seen her before. He chuckled. “I know her. If only I could have a night with her.” “Hahaha!” The snickers echoed on both ends of the line,
On the way back to Shangrila Group, Winnie gave Kaze a call with a heavy heart.
“Hello? Are you free tonight, Mr.
Chairman? Can you attend a dinner invitation with me?” “What's the occasion?” Kaze asked curiously as he walked out of Perfect World Group’s headquarters.
“It’s with a boss in the Food and Drug Administration.” Winnie recounted the earlier incident without holding any details back.
Kaze’s eyes flickered with harshness.
Here came trouble.

go with you tonight. I want to see who he is,” Kaze said indifferently.
Since his return to the city, Kaze noticed the horrible corruption in the local businesses. The top three families and the dishonest conduct in the system were the main reasons.
Kaze had seen his fair share of people like Noah, who used official work under the guise of official duties.
As the acting mayor, Kaze believed he should set things right.
The evening quickly rolled around.
Kaze drove to Shangrila Group to pick up Winnie who was working overtime.
“I’m sorry to trouble you over a trivial matter, Mr. Chairman,” Winnie said in
shame after meeting Kaze.
“Why are you beating yourself up? I don’t do much of the work. I only show my face to deal with the trickier situations,” Kaze said, waving his arm.
Winnie looked quite worn out since he last saw her two days ago.
Kaze guessed that apart from work and today’s unfortunate incident, the divorce with Zenny played a huge role in her fatigue.
He asked, “Is Zenny still not giving in?” It was not his place to meddle in Winnie’s personal affairs.
Sherry had grilled him about his relationship with Winnie during the interview that afternoon. The rumor
had started somewhere.
It was important to live with dignity and self-respect. Kaze did not want to put Winnie in the spot.
“He has been holding up somewhere, but I suspect today’s incident has something to do with him.” Winnie told Kaze about the text message from Zenny.
“Okay. I'll ask Noah later.” Kaze nodded without pursuing the matter.

“Where will the dinner be held?” Kaze asked after getting into the car.
Kaze was taken aback when Winnie
mentioned the city council’s lounge.
He just had a welcome brunch with the team at the mayor’s office.
Half an hour later, the pair arrived at the city council’s lounge.
Noah and a few men sat in a private lounge on the first-floor lobby. The door was left wide open as they smoked and chatted away.
Though the loud laughter from the room echoed to the lobby, the servers dared not say anything to Noah’s group.
“You're the man, Noah. I can’t believe you got Winnie, the CEO of Shangrila Group to have dinner with you.” “She’s a bombshell. Darcy from Sky Ocean Corporation, Miru from Lefteria Group, Snow from Perfect World
| Group, and Winnie are four of Lilyrose’s finest.”
