Chapter 1165 Ask Your Grandpa for Advice
"I'm taking it there. Do you have a problem with it?"
The nonchalance in Kaze's tone was somewhat assertive.
Everybody was shocked.
Pete was the grandson of Trent, the old mayor while Kaze was a loser who took his wife's last name.
They belonged to two worlds.
Pete should be the one in control of the situation while Kaze would whimper and simper desperately. Judging by the conversation between them, the roles seemed to be reversed.
Kaze could not be cockier, and Pete could not give a straight answer.
"What's going on, Mr. Fuller? Are you ill? This guy here is a loser. Just crush him."
Keeve nudged Pete.
The push from his friend was not appreciated at all, and it showed on Pete's face.
Pete snapped an angry look at Kaze and uttered, "I didn't do anything to you this time, Kaze. I have shares in Victoria International Hospital. Are you stirring trouble on purpose?"
No one expected the response from Pete.
It sounded as if Kaze drove Pete up the wall.
"I want to shut the hospital down, Pete. I don't see how this has anything to do with you being a shareholder."
Kaze frowned and said annoyedly, "I asked you if you are in or out. Just give an answer. Why are you going on about something else?
"Or are you trying to tell me you can't make any decisions?
"Do you need to seek advice from your grandfather?"
Pete turned pale at the mention of Trent. His mind wandered back to the incident at Landor Residential Area.
Trent bossed around the place, but he fled with his tail tucked between his legs after Draco had a word with him.
Before leaving, Trent witnessed Draco knocking Pete off his feet.
Trent talked about running a background check on Draco, but nothing came up so far.
Hence why Pete was wary of Kaze.
He did not want to get into it with Kaze and bring harm to his family.
With that in mind, Pete said exasperatedly. "Just do whatever you want, Kaze. I don't have a lot of shares, so it's none of my business."
Pete was resentful.
Kaze humiliated him in public.
Pete spoke harshly just to save what was left of his dignity.
It was dead silent along the hallway.
No one could believe their ears.
Pete said the meanest things but made the cowardliest choice.
It was shocking that Pete gave the green light to Kaze to cease the hotel's operations.
Keeve panicked.
He dropped a statement that the government chiefs would run away like little girls when a shareholder came.
Pete was the biggest shareholder, and he backed down at the last minute.
Due to Pete, Keeve had eggs on his face.
"What's the meaning of this, Mr. Fuller? You have shares in the hospital. Why are you losing your nerve in front of this loser?"
Keeve cocked his head to glare at Pete.
With an ashen face, Pete said nothing.
Kaze said with a smile, "You're smart enough to know when to back down, Pete. If you were to stay stubborn, I might just break you today.
*Since you're scared, you might as well beat it instead of sticking out like a sore thumb."
He waved his arm, gesturing for Pete to leave.
*I will get my revenge, Kaze."
Unable to shake the embarrassment, Pete walked away without even looking at Keeve.
