Chapter 1269 Mayor? "You're asking for it, bastard!" The gang leader got up from the ground and shouted at his men furiously, "Don't just stand there. Get him!" The dozen thugs pounced on Kaze without another word.
The fleet from the mayor's office pulled up 30 feet away.
Getting out of the car, Caleb felt tingles on his scalp after what he saw.
"Stop!" he yelled with a distorted look.
"Mr. Leed?" Faye turned her head for a glance and was shocked.

"Mr. Leed, I am the executive of the Red Foundation's South River State branch, Greg Nanas,* Greg greeted courteously.
Caleb was relieved as Kaze was alright and looking calm. Pulling a straight face, Caleb nodded, but his attitude did not sit well with Greg.
Backed by the Red Foundation, Greg believed Caleb was not up to his level as he was only a second-in-command in a tiny city. The way he saw it, Caleb was disrespecting him.
However, Greg had to hold his tongue because Caleb worked for the mayor.
"What are you doing, Ms. Holan?" Caleb grilled with an ashen face.
Faye glanced at Greg, pointed at Kaze, and replied, "Mr. Leed, the hooligan started trouble at our place of business.
"We asked the security team to escort him out so as not to delay the mayor's inspection.
"A hooligan?" Caleb smirked in rage. "Did you call him a hooligan?* "Is he not?" Faye paused for a minute before it dawned on her. "I guess you don't know who he is, Mr. Leed. He isn't really a hooligan, but he is a mob boss as revealed online." Caleb grimaced harder.
Greg was a smartass to jump in. "Is the mayor staying in the car because he doesn't want to be associated with this mob boss, Mr. Leed? "I'll handle this. We can just remove him from here." Before Greg could bark the order, Faye shouted at the gangsters, "Don't just stand there. Get him out of here. Just break his limbs if he won't leave-" "Shut up!" Unable to stand it, Caleb cut her off with a scream.
He then turned to his entourage from the mayor's office and said, "Contact the police to assign a few officers to ensure the mayor's safety. They are to arrest these criminal gang members too." Greg and Faye were dumbfounded. There was no need for the whole police force to deal with Kaze.

However, they soon realized that Caleb referred to the mensurrounding Kaze as criminal gang members. They did not expect that.
Faye said, "You got it wrong, Mr. Leed. These people are the security team we hired. The criminal is Kaze!" "Step aside!" Without looking at Faye, Caleb walked ahead with his staff.
As Caleb was the deputy mayor, the gangsters grew scared and gave way.
Amid the stunned gazes, Caleb approached Kaze and gave a nod.
"I'm sorry for our tardiness, Mr.
Mayor. You were nearly attacked by e these criminals. Are you alright?" Behind Caleb, the group of government servants hunched over in respect.
Mr. Mayor? Kaze? Greg and Faye were dumbstruck.
They were at a loss.
