A Bumpy Road to Power

Chapter 496 496

"Isn't it an accident?"

Yves Giles asked.

Dirk Carter took a deep breath and laid out his previous analysis with Carly Lambert in detail.

After listening, Yves Giles also took a deep breath and asked, "Who do you think planned this whole thing?"

Dirk Carter chuckled, "That depends on who the biggest beneficiary of this matter is."

Yves Giles pondered, "Cornell Morgan is dead, Robert Shepherd will also step down because of his fake act of bravery, and now in Koryn City, only Jeff Hughes remains. If the position of Secretary of the Party Committee in The Economic Development District is obtained by someone recommended by Jeff Hughes, as you said, then undoubtedly, the biggest beneficiary here is Jeff Hughes."

Analyzing up to this point.

Yves Giles's eyes widened.

He asked, "Could it be Jeff Hughes?"

Dirk Carter furrowed his brows and said, "Looking at it now, Jeff Hughes is the biggest suspect, but there's still a question. Even if Cornell Morgan was foolish, he wouldn't accept the evidence against Fridolin Golding sent by Jeff Hughes. If Jeff Hughes orchestrated this, there must be a middleman between him and Cornell Morgan, someone whom Cornell Morgan trusts deeply."

The two exchanged glances.

They almost spoke out instantaneously, "Rose!"

Yves Giles said, "If it's Rose, then the premise of the whole thing is she had already reached some agreement with Jeff Hughes; otherwise, she wouldn't lose Cornell Morgan, her great asset."

Dirk Carter replied, "Managing Cornell Morgan means naturally handling Jeff Hughes too; no one is without weaknesses. Somebody once told me, eliminate all the impossible, and whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth."

At this point in the analysis.

It's already close to the truth being revealed.

Dirk Carter looked at the frowning Yves Giles and said, "Mayor Giles, if this really is the truth, apart from cooperating with me, you have no other choice at this point."

Yves Giles contemplated for a long moment.

He looked at Dirk Carter and said, "Fine, I agree to cooperate with you. Tell me, what should I do now?"

Dirk Carter had a faint, perceptible smile at the corner of his mouth.

He said, "Expose the scandal of faking bravery before the joint investigation team arrives."

...

Rexton City.

Fifth floor of Marriott International Entertainment Club.

Floors one to three are entertainment areas; the fourth floor is offices, while the fifth floor is a luxuriously decorated and huge bedroom.

While Dirk Carter and Yves Giles were meeting.

Rose lying in bed also slowly opened her eyes.

She threw off the covers and got out of bed directly.

Her enticing figure was bare, and she took a glass of water from the table and gulped it down.

"You're awake?"

A lazy voice came from the bed.

Rose turned her head slightly and smiled, saying, "You can sleep a little more."

At this time, you'd be surprised to find that sharing a bed with Rose wasn't a man, but a charming-looking woman.

The woman also got out of bed.

Like Rose, she was completely naked.

Her bust was equally impressive.

And her figure was well-proportioned, exquisite and delicate. Any man would find it easy to pity.

"Why sleep when you're up?"

The woman walked straight up behind Rose, actually hugging her waist from behind, with her soft breasts pressed against Rose's back; the scene was simply too enticing.

Rose put down the glass.

Turned around.

The two, similar in height, pressed their pairs of large breasts together.

The next scene was even more jaw-dropping.

Rose directly held the woman's head and kissed her crimson lips.

The woman responded immediately.

The two first-rate-looking women were actually embracing and kissing.

This was not all.

While entangled.

Their hands explored each other's bodies.

The woman's breath noticeably quickened.

She halted her actions and made Rose sit on a chair; Rose perceptively sat down and spread her legs, raising them high.

The woman gave a seductive smile.

Sank down.

And directly buried her head between Rose's legs. In just a short while, Rose began to moan, her facial muscles twitching as if in ecstasy.

These two women were indeed a couple.

Truly a waste.

"Rose, are you up?"

Just when the two were intensely entwined, a woman's voice came from the door.

"Come in,"

Rose and the other woman didn't stop.

The door was pushed open.

Another tall woman walked in.

She was also beautiful, showing no surprise at the scene before her, as if it were commonplace.

"Everything smooth over in Koryn City?"

Rose asked, her expression contorted.

The woman solemnly replied, "News just in, the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection in Koryn City has arrested Eladio Shelby."

Upon hearing this, as Rose was about to smile.

Suddenly, she stiffened, placed her elevated leg down, and stood up abruptly, asking, "Why was it the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection and not the joint investigation team?"

"The joint investigation team hasn't arrived yet. Sydney Tanner is still detained at the Koryn City Police Department; she confessed to the faked bravery incident of Eladio Shelby, and Robert Shepherd personally contacted the disciplinary commission to take down Eladio Shelby."

Once the woman finished reporting.

Rose's expression became vacant.

With some disappointment, she sat back down and murmured, "Damn it, Robert Shepherd reacted swiftly, he preemptively dealt with Eladio Shelby's issue, thus making himself a deceived victim, altering the whole nature of the affair."

"But given the significance of Eladio Shelby's matter, Robert Shepherd will certainly be affected too."

The naked woman asked.

Rose shook her head vacantly and said, "Indeed, Robert Shepherd will be affected, but perhaps only with punishment, not dismissal. After all, the higher-ups don't want the faked bravery incident of Eladio Shelby exposed, so it would be reduced to smaller issues and eventually dismissed."

"But this means he has to abandon his interests in The Economic Development District; that's a good thing."

The woman in front said.

Rose suddenly perked up.

She looked fiercely at the woman in clothes before her and said, "Rose, find out immediately where Yves Giles is, and where Dirk Carter is?"

Rose replied, "No need to check; our people have reported that Yves Giles rushed to Koryn City early morning, and after a meeting, Dirk Carter also left in haste; the exact whereabouts are unknown."

Hearing this.

Rose became instantly tense.

She took a sharp breath, gritting her teeth, saying, "Damn it, I know it; Yves Giles shifted focus, she staked on Dirk Carter... Dirk Carter, I underestimated you..."

After finishing these words.

She raised her brows and coldly said, "Rose, Lily, take a trip with me to Koryn City..."
