A Bumpy Road to Power

Chapter 608 608

The buttons were still undone.

Dirk Carter pounced towards Maeve Winters.

Perhaps because it was their last time.

Or maybe because Dirk Carter hadn't gotten the answers he wanted from Dorothy Zechariah.

All these emotions mixed together, making him act so hastily.

Their eyes met.

Gazes intertwined.

Lying on the bed, Maeve looked into Dirk Carter's eyes and asked, "In such a hurry? Then you'd better make an effort; today, my legs aren't weak, and my little sister isn't swollen or red, I definitely won't get out of bed."

"Alright, I'll do my best."

Dirk Carter finished his sentence.

The two lips stuck together.

Their tongues vigorously stirred in each other's mouths, sucking, as if trying to swallow the other.

And like that, they entangled for about ten whole minutes.

The clothes on both were shed completely.

"I haven't tried the 69 position; want to give it a shot today?"

Maeve asked, panting softly.

Dirk Carter laughed and said, "Sure, whatever you want, I'll satisfy you today."

With that.

He spread his legs, aiming at Maeve's head.

And his own head moved down to kiss the mysterious stream flowing.

Another round of lip and tongue battle.

Their desires ignited to the fullest.

Dirk Carter shifted positions, came between Maeve's legs, and stared at the little stream that overflowed. He asked, "I'm going to start."

"Go ahead, I can't wait."

Maeve replied.

Gun aimed at the target, power exerted from the waist; with a soft squelch, that familiar sensation returned.

It was just that, Maeve's expression twisted.

With a whimper from her throat, she said, "Come on, hard, use all your strength to pound me..."

Next.

The storm raged.

The hotel room filled with an amorous aroma, a maddening desire, life and death...

From afternoon to night, then from night to dawn.

Neither felt hunger at all.

After each round ended, they rested a moment before going at it again.

No one knew how many times in total.

No one knew how long each lasted.

The only certain thing was when the first ray of sunlight came through the window at dawn; they were drenched in sweat, panting heavily, almost without the strength to stand.

Just as Maeve said at the start.

Her legs already trembled slightly.

The originally pink petals were also quite swollen; it seems Maeve wouldn't be able to walk properly for some time.

"I should go."

Dirk Carter glanced at the time, saying somewhat reluctantly to Maeve.

Maeve pulled him into her embrace.

Another round of passionate kisses ensued.

When they parted, Dirk Carter only then noticed her eyes had welled up.

"It's time to say goodbye."

Maeve spoke, somewhat choking.

Dirk Carter nodded and asked, "Is this goodbye for good?"

"Of course not, we'll still be friends. If you ever need help, just call me. Whatever I can do, I will go through fire and water for you. It's just... just after I get married, I can't crawl into bed with you anymore."

Dirk Carter ran a finger along her nose.

Said, "It's fine, having had you is enough; at least the times in bed with you were very joyful."

"Me too."

Maeve giggled lightly.

"Can you promise me something?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Maeve nodded and said, "Sure, no matter what it is, I'll promise you. Go ahead."

"You have to be happy, always. If one day he bullies you, or you feel unhappy, come find me."

"Alright, I promise you."

Maeve nodded her head.

Dirk Carter left.

At the moment the door closed.

Maeve's face still held a smile.

Ignoring the ache below.

She climbed from the bed, walked to the window, watching below as Dirk Carter got into a car.

From when the car drove out of the hotel to disappearing at the end of the street, no longer visible.

Only then she murmured, "You must be happy too..."

...

On the plane.

Though Dirk Carter was tired, he had no intention of napping.

He kept watching the clouds outside the window, his mind full of the 'sweet' moments spent with Maeve.

From the first time she appeared before him.

Then through all the ups and downs they went through together.

Maeve was great.

Apart from in bed, she never asked much of him in other aspects.

She was a clear-headed woman.

She always knew that she couldn't hold onto a man like Dirk Carter, so even at the moment of farewell today, she never asked the question she should never have asked Dirk Carter.

"What's wrong? You seem a bit melancholy?"

Asked Arlo Yarbrough who was sitting beside him.

Dirk Carter turned his head toward him and asked, "Arlo, do you want to get married?"

"Yes, why wouldn't I? I'm over thirty now, if I don't get married soon, it won't align with the eugenic policies."

Arlo Yarbrough replied.

"Then you should get married, I want to drink at a wedding."

Dirk Carter said, smiling.

Arlo Yarbrough answered unhappily, "With whom? With you?"

"How about Elaine Nolan? I can help match you up."

Dirk Carter asked.

Arlo Yarbrough waved his hand, saying, "Forget it, her background, my background, I'm not worthy of her!"

"Just tell me, do you like her?"

"I like her."

Dirk Carter snapped his fingers.

Said, "That's settled, don't worry about it. After the investment promotion is completed, I'll make you opportunities."

"You better not trick me. If I can marry Elaine Nolan, I'll treat you like an ancestor. No matter how many bullets fly towards you, I'll be the first to shield you."

"Hahaha..."

Dirk Carter laughed, the plane landed at Rexton City Airport.

Investment promotion countdown, now there are 11 days left.

The next early morning.

Dirk Carter had just entered the office.

He saw a thick stack of documents piled on the desk.

"Where did this come from?"

Dirk Carter pointed at the documents, asking Arlo Yarbrough who was cleaning.

Arlo Yarbrough said with an "Oh", "These were all brought by Genevieve, she said they were decisions she chose to invest in The Economic Development District companies."

"Oh?"

Dirk Carter was a bit surprised.

Picked up a document, glanced through it.

Said, "Send all of these to Genevieve."

"Why? How could you not appreciate people's kindness?"

Arlo Yarbrough said with some displeasure.

Dirk Carter smiled and said, "These companies are relatively small, bringing together 6 billion is really not that simple. Moreover, as the District Chief of The Economic Development District, she has to attract investment too, what about her own achievements?"

"What about your investment promotion?" Arlo Yarbrough asked.

Dirk Carter waved his hand and said, "I'll take care of this, you go prepare for the Mayor's reception day."
