A Bumpy Road to Power

Chapter 517 517

Looking at Dirk Carter's unmoving gaze, Arlo Yarbrough asked, "Dirk, you're not really sending her, are you? If something happens, we won't be rescuing one, but two, and it'll be even more chaotic then."

"I'll go with her!"

Dirk Carter said.

As soon as he said that, neither The Leopard Cat nor Arlo Yarbrough agreed.

Dirk waved his hand to stop them from speaking and said, "I have an advantage going. First of all, if it comes to a critical moment, revealing my identity can ensure our safety. Secondly, if Teresa Thorne tries to use that poison on Xiaoxue again, I can intervene in time. These are things you can't do."

"But..."

Arlo still wanted to argue.

Dirk Carter said, "Alright, this is how it's settled. Arlo, let's head to The Fragrant Garden Grand Hotel now."

Arlo was taken aback and asked, "Weren't we planning to act tomorrow?"

"Teresa Thorne definitely thinks we'll only act after scouting tomorrow. We need to catch them by surprise."

Dirk Carter said.

Around 9:30 in the evening.

The Fragrant Garden Grand Hotel on Koryn City's Open Avenue.

This is a three-star hotel located in the ancient Qing dynasty architectural complex within the Fragrant Garden.

Looking around, there were a few police cars and some civilian vehicles parked in odd numbers. It was clear these weren't normal cars.

They were probably arranged by the police.

The hotel hadn't stopped operating; guests could check in as usual, but entering required strict inspection.

Getting Dirk Carter inside wasn't going to be easy.

So, he and Arden Rivers got out of the car, finally finding a back door hidden in the garden.

They observed from behind the bushes for about ten minutes.

There's just a large iron gate at the back, relatively safer, so there wasn't much patrol. Comparing, roughly every five minutes, two people would patrol by.

"If you can't open this gate in under five minutes, we'll be exposed. Are you confident?"

Dirk Carter asked Arden Rivers.

Arden nodded and said, "I'll give it a try."

After speaking.

She rolled up her pant leg.

From there, she took out two tweezer-like metal tools.

As soon as the patrol left, she went through the bushes and arrived at the iron gate.

With each hand holding a piece of metal, she started working on the lock.

This took about three to four minutes.

Dirk Carter already heard footsteps from the corner of his vision.

Just as he was becoming anxious, there was a click, and the iron gate opened. The two quickly slipped inside and closed the gate.

At that very moment, the patrol arrived on schedule.

Fortunately, they hadn't left any trace.

In the darkness, the two paused for a moment.

Then, they moved along the corridor, suddenly hearing voices ahead. Dirk and Arden exchanged glances and hid in a nearby ladies' restroom.

Just as they closed the stall door.

They heard the haphazard footsteps of two people.

Dirk cracked the stall door open to take a look outside, seeing a man in a suit and a woman in a uniform hugging each other, their lips locked as if glued together.

"Sweetheart, I've missed you so much. You have no idea how repressed I've felt these days, I'm about to explode."

The man was speaking.

He couldn't wait, and started rubbing the woman's chest through her clothes.

The woman somewhat disdainfully said, "Manager Zhou, don't sound so pitiful. Which woman in our company doesn't want to pounce on you?"

The man immediately chuckled and said, "They're nothing compared to you. Let me feel you already."

With that.

He lifted the woman's skirt directly.

Then, pulling her waist, he lifted her onto the sink.

The man called Manager Zhou was clearly impatient.

He directly pulled down the underwear.

The woman braced herself with her hands behind her, her legs resting on the counter.

In this position, everything between her legs was completely exposed to Manager Zhou.

Manager Zhou swallowed and was just about to lean his head in when the woman shyly said, "I haven't showered yet, it's dirty."

The man said, "Dirty? You're the cleanest here. Even if it's dirty, I'd still lick it."

With that.

He went in with his mouth.

After some action, the woman's expression began to twist, and the small restroom echoed with her moans.

Seeing the trickling stream below, the man, somewhat clumsily, undid his belt, letting his pants fall to his ankles, aligned himself, and moved forward.

The sound of slapping started resonating continuously.

The two were getting into it.

Whether it was the man's grunts or the woman's soft moans, it made Arden Rivers inside the stall blush.

Due to the stall's cramped space.

The two were standing face to face.

Dirk Carter was a bit mischievous.

Seeing Arden's reactions, knowing she felt a bit itchy herself.

His hand slipped inside her pants, heading downward, soon reaching the depths of the forest.

The humid, warm feeling.

At the blossom area.

It was already a flood out of control.

Under the teasing fingers, Arden bit her lip, closed her eyes, and felt a warm flow rushing down, as if countless insects were gnawing at her all over.

If circumstances allowed.

She would really beg Dirk for a good comfort session.

Just when she was immersed in Dirk's "teasing", suddenly, an emptiness below.

Dirk's hand left just like that.

Outside the stall.

The two had already switched positions; the woman braced against the sink, her buttocks raised, the man busy behind her.

Dirk quietly pushed the stall door slightly open, and just when Arden didn't know what he was doing, he stepped out of the stall.

"Look at you two, a manager and a waitress having an affair. I'm going to report you to your hotel!"

Dirk suddenly said.

Shocked, the man and woman immediately stopped what they were doing.

Both hastily dressed, not even caring to ask who Dirk was or why he was in the staff restroom.

It was the woman who reacted quickly.

She asked, "Who are you? How did you get in here?"

Dirk chuckled and said, "I am..."

He had only said two words.

And then he moved.

Suddenly, he struck the man's neck with a chop, causing him to grunt and collapse. The woman tried to escape, but it was too late; Dirk struck again, knocking her out.

Arden quickly followed out, and Dirk pointed to the woman crumpled on the ground: "You wear her clothes, I'll wear his."

Quickly understanding what Dirk meant.

The two stripped the unconscious pair's uniforms and changed into them. Coincidentally, Arden's fit perfectly, while Dirk's was a bit tight but manageable.

Then.

They moved the unconscious pair into the stall.

After shutting the door.

Dirk and Arden, now a manager and a waitress, found a cart in a supply room and nonchalantly entered the elevator.
