Chapter 1270 What More Do You Want?
"T-This is impossible!"
Time passed, but the crowd remained in shock.
Kaze was a moocher who took his wife's last name.
Somehow, he became the new mayor of Lilyrose.
This had to be a mistake.
However, Caleb and the government servants stood before Kaze in reverence.
Action spoke louder than words.
Kaze loved to put on a show, but it was unlikely he could get the deputy mayor on board with his act.
Greg turned ashen as reality sank in that Kaze was the mayor.
He led his employees at the Red Foundation to rehearse a big welcome under the hot sun.
In the end, the person he had been wanting to suck up to was Kaze.
Feeling awkward and angry, Greg wanted to sink into the ground.
"Why... Why is he the mayor?"
Faye put her hands over her lips in disbelief. Regret quickly washed over her.
She took the time to reapply her makeup to get into the mayor's pants.
When Kaze showed up, she did not hold onto the chance. Instead, she taunted and looked down on him.
It all made sense now.
Faced with her sneers, Kaze remained calm and told her not to be sorry later.
She must have looked like a fool earlier.
With everything figured out, Faye wanted to die in embarrassment.
Caleb turned around and told Faye coldly, "Why did you treat the mayor in such a manner, Ms. Holan?
"I expected an explanation from the Red Foundation."
Faye's mind went blank.
She turned to Kaze and stumbled for words. "K-Kaze... I'm sorry, Mr. Mayor. I was blind. I didn't know y-you were the mayor."
"An apology won't cut it."
Caleb scoffed. "You ordered criminals to attack the mayor.
"The nerve of the Red Foundation.
"Did you forget that you're in Lilyrose?"
Caleb was fuming.
Since Kaze wanted to inspect the Red Foundation, Caleb came over with some employees.
Yet, the Red Foundation had done it this time.
If Caleb had not arrived on time, the consequences could have been dire
Faye, a bimbo, only got to where she was by cozying up to men. Caleb's dressing-down threw her for a loop. Terrified, she looked to Greg for help.
"Greg..."
With nowhere to run, Greg took a deep breath, forced a smile, and said, "I didn't know you were the mayor, Kaze. I was too much of a snob to see that.
"We had some misunderstandings before. I'll tell you what. I'll apologize to you, and we can put this behind us." The Red Foundation's reputation would suffer if word got out that they instructed thugs to attack the mayor.
Faced with Caleb's accusation, Greg had to put his feelings aside and yield for now.
"Put this behind us? Easy for you to say."
Kaze grinned and asked callously, "You sure think highly of yourself, Greg."
Greg pulled a long face. He could tell that Kaze was not ready to let the whole thing go.
Fighting back the rage, he asked, "I'm extending an olive branch and apologizing, Kaze. What more do you want?"
