A Bumpy Road to Power

Chapter 432 432: Enigmatic Sister Hua

Secretary Zhang's face showed signs of hesitation.

After a pause, he said, "Sister Hua, I certainly want to accommodate you, but you know that Comrade Cornell's issue is quite serious. There are many people from higher up keeping an eye on it, and it's not something that just a word or two from me can resolve, especially Deputy Secretary Fabian Vincent from the municipal party committee, who's been relentlessly pursuing it. I'm really in a tough spot."

Cornell?

Upon hearing this name.

Dirk Carter shivered slightly.

Although he hadn't yet taken office in Koryn City.

He knew there was a member of the municipal party committee, standing committee, and vice mayor named Cornell Morgan there—could it be the same person?

Sister Hua smiled faintly.

She stood up.

Walked to the side of the office desk.

And brought over a box she had prepared in advance.

Placed it onto the coffee table.

With a snap, the box opened, facing Secretary Zhang.

At that moment, Secretary Zhang's brows furrowed slightly, but he soon returned to normal.

Smiling, he said, "Sister Hua is so courteous, it makes me feel a bit embarrassed. All right, I'll give it a shot, but I can't completely guarantee anything, I can only say I'll try my best."

"Having Secretary Zhang say that is enough."

Sister Hua finished speaking.

She snapped her fingers.

The office door was pushed open from the outside.

Two women dressed provocatively walked in from outside.

"You two, take Secretary Zhang to rest."

"Yes!"

The two women responded.

Sidled up to Secretary Zhang, one on each side, and began cozying up to him.

Unable to contain his joy.

Secretary Zhang embraced both of them.

Picked up the box from the table, and said to Sister Hua, "Sister Hua, then I'll accept graciously."

Sister Hua smiled faintly.

Watched as the three laughed and walked out.

Once the three had left.

Seemingly exhausted.

Sister Hua collapsed onto the sofa and rubbed her face vigorously.

Then stood back up.

The next scene left Dirk Carter dumbfounded.

He watched as Sister Hua's hand undid the buttons of her cheongsam.

In one move, she slipped the cheongsam off.

The perfectly shaped body once wrapped in the cheongsam was now displayed before him.

The bra was two palm-sized pieces of cloth, cradling her sizable "white rabbits," and the delicate shoulder straps seemed ready to snap at any moment.

The bottoms were also a small pair of panties.

Though not a thong, they were only palm-sized, barely covering the most private parts.

At that moment.

Dirk Carter's blood surged.

Arden Rivers, leaning against him, couldn't see outside, suddenly furrowed her brows.

Dirk Carter wasn't sure why, until he looked down.

The mighty Titan stood firm, squarely pressing onto her belly.

What now?

In his arms was the nude Arden Rivers.

Outside was the tempting Sister Hua.

Under this dual assault, Dirk Carter found it impossible to restrain himself.

At this moment.

Sister Hua stretched lazily.

Her hand reached behind her, and with a slight move.

The only covering on her upper body dropped to the floor.

She exhaled deeply, saying, "So comfortable."

Then she simply removed the last piece of cloth between her legs.

Her chest was turbulent.

Her waist was slender.

Her hips curvaceous and full, the grassy field faintly visible.

Two perfectly proportioned long legs gracefully poised.

The texture of her skin like icy jade, her teeth white and lips red.

Dirk Carter's breathing became shallow as he watched.

She lay openly on the sofa.

With not a single cover on her.

Her face showing satisfaction, as if being in such a manner greatly fulfilled her.

Time waits for no one.

This was the best opportunity.

If he didn't act now, it would be too late.

Dirk Carter suddenly flung the curtain open, lunging towards Sister Hua on the sofa.

Sister Hua also heard the slight sound, ready to rise from the sofa but too late, as Dirk Carter was already in front of her, with one hand pressed on her neck, saying, "Don't move!"

Sister Hua's eyes surprisingly showed no panic.

She stared at Dirk Carter's face, saying, "I've seen you at the gate."

Dirk Carter felt a shock in his heart.

Despite the people coming and going at the gate then, it was merely a fleeting glance, yet she had remembered his face.

"I mean you no harm, I'm just here to rescue someone."

"Rescue?"

Sister Hua asked, puzzled.

Dirk Carter turned to look at the bemused Arden Rivers trying to cover her private parts, urging, "Why are you standing there? Put on the clothes on the ground."

"Oh, okay."

Arden Rivers quickly bent down, picked up Sister Hua's cheongsam, and hastily put it on.

Seeing Arden Rivers.

Sister Hua seemed to understand something, asking, "Your woman?"

"No."

"Then why are you rescuing her?"

"That's none of your concern."

Dirk Carter said.

Sister Hua smiled faintly, saying, "You can't get out; the stairs are now full of my people."

"No worries. Isn't it that I have you in my hands? With you under control, they wouldn't dare do anything to me, right?"

Dirk Carter chuckled.

Sister Hua's face showed surprise.

Asked, "Do you know who I am?"

"No, and I don't need to know."

Dirk Carter replied.

Sister Hua's face suddenly displayed a strange smile.

Her eyes, like those of a seductive fox, stared at Dirk Carter, saying, "You've got guts, daring to enter the dragon's lair and rescue someone right under my nose. I admire you; how about working for me?"

"Sorry, not interested."

Dirk Carter responded.

"There aren't many who aren't interested in me."

Finishing, she said to Dirk Carter, "You don't dare hurt me; if you do anything to me, neither you nor the girl here would be able to leave. So can you let me sit up? You're making me uncomfortable like this. I'm naked; are you afraid I'll run away?"

He thought it over and realized she had a point.

Dirk Carter released his hand.

Sister Hua sat up.

The two large "white rabbits" in front of her bounced vigorously.

Whether intentional or unintentional, her legs were spread wide.

In the forested area, two enticing streams faintly appeared.

She took a pack of cigarettes from the coffee table.

Pulled one out to offer Dirk Carter, who refused.

She lit one herself.

Taking a puff and looking at Arden Rivers beside her, she said, "I spent sixty thousand on this girl. If you want to take her back, just pay."

"How much?"

"Three hundred thousand!"

Sister Hua said leisurely.

Dirk Carter was momentarily choked.

Asked, "You spent sixty thousand, and I have to pay three hundred thousand to buy her back?"

"It's business, of course, meant to make a profit. However, if you don't have the money, I have another suggestion."

"Go ahead."

"I'll let the girl go if you stay. If you're willing, I'll release her now."

When saying this, Sister Hua appeared confident; despite being unclothed, she was still in control.

After all, this was her turf.

"No, we'll leave together! If he's not leaving, I'm not leaving!"

Upon hearing, Arden Rivers instantly stepped forward to say firmly.

Dirk Carter stood up.

Walked to Arden Rivers and said, "Xiaoyu, you leave first. I'm a man, it won't be a loss for me to stay, there are many ways to get out. Besides, those three kids need you."

"But you..."

Arden Rivers hesitated.

But the situation was clear to her.

Words reached her lips, nodded heavily, and said, "I'll listen to you."

Dirk Carter leaned into her ear, whispering, "Once you're out, do one thing for me..."
