A Bumpy Road to Power

"Buddy, the focus of the problem isn't here; you're looking at things too narrowly."

At this moment, a slightly older person spoke up.

Everyone immediately gathered around and asked, "Chief Qi, tell us more about it."

This guy named Chief Qi said, "First of all, haven't you noticed? Minister Carter gave up the exclusive rear seat to two young people. Everyone knows the Audi A6 is most comfortable in the backseat."

"Yes, yes, that's right. The front passenger seat is typically reserved for the secretary."

Someone echoed.

"From Kenning City to Veridia City is a three-hour drive. If you were a leader, would you give the most comfortable seat to your subordinates? Besides, has this happened before?"

Chief Qi spoke with authority.

"Additionally, there's another point you've overlooked. Do you think both Mayor Ross and Executive Gao wouldn't know where someone as important as Minister Carter would be sitting?"

Everyone looked at each other in disbelief and said, "Impossible."

"Exactly, this is the key point. We all know Mayor Ross suggested Carter for the position of vice mayor. Today, when Mayor Carter arrived, Executive Gao rushed to open the door. Doesn't this explain the situation?"

"What exactly does it explain? Chief Qi, please enlighten us."

Chief Qi sighed and said, "You guys are really clueless. Haven't you heard? Our new governor is about to arrive. I checked online, and this Governor Jiang is from Serenity State. Both Mayor Carter and Minister Hughes came from Serenity State. You should ponder on that, think deeply, truly study it..."

Saying this,

Chief Qi left, enigmatic and profound.

Although the crowd didn't fully understand, they realized that Dirk Carter and Dahlia Hughes were not to be trifled with.

Naturally, they thought about establishing good relationships with Dirk Carter and Dahlia Hughes.

Norman Ross didn't expect that today's incident would help Dirk Carter quickly establish a foothold in Veridia City.

After Earl Carter left,

Norman Ross was filled with apprehension.

He lost interest in holding a meeting.

After a few brief words, he adjourned the meeting.

Dirk Carter had just been led into the office by someone from the county government office and sat down in the chair at the desk.

The door suddenly swung open.

A figure darted inside.

Quickly closed the door.

"What are you doing?"

Dirk Carter asked Dahlia Hughes, who was jogging over.

Dahlia Hughes didn't say a word.

She directly lunged into Dirk Carter's arms, sat on his lap, and said coquettishly, "You've ignited my fire; I don't want to wait another minute."

After saying that,

She wrapped her arms around Dirk Carter's head and pressed her red lips against his.

Their lips and teeth were intertwined in a passionate tangle.

They were intensely inseparable when,

A sudden knock on the door interrupted their embrace.

Dirk Carter quickly asked, "Who is it?"

"Mayor Carter, it's Johann Holloway. May I come in?"

It was indeed the voice of Johann Holloway, the City Government Secretary.

Seeing this, Dahlia Hughes said, "He can't know I'm here."

After saying that,

She quickly ducked under Dirk Carter's desk.

Dirk Carter hurriedly picked up a document from the table, pretending to be working.

He shouted, "Come on in, Secretary Holloway."

Johann Holloway pushed the door open.

He walked in with a big smile.

He said, "Mayor Carter, you're truly diligent. You've just arrived and are already in work mode?"

"Just trying to stay ahead, Secretary Holloway. Is there something you need?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Johann Holloway ignored Dirk Carter's question.

He sat down comfortably on the sofa.

He said, "Actually, there's nothing important. I just came to discuss your secretary with Mayor Carter. Do you have any thoughts?"

While Johann Holloway was speaking,

Underneath the desk, Dahlia Hughes moved.

Her slender fingers grabbed Dirk Carter's private part, making him shiver involuntarily.

Then,

Dahlia Hughes couldn't hold back.

She unzipped Dirk Carter's pants.

She reached in with her hand.

After fiddling around inside, she pulled out the slightly stiffening staff.

Playing with it in her hand,

While casting a flirtatious gaze at Dirk Carter.

As if to tell him, this was how he teased her in the car, wasn't it?

"Oh? What do you mean, Secretary Holloway?"

Dirk Carter held his breath and asked Johann Holloway.

Johann Holloway smiled gently.

He crossed his legs.

He said, "Mayor Carter, you are new here and might not be familiar with everyone. If you don't have any preferred candidates, I can arrange it for you. You wouldn't have any objections, right?"

Dirk Carter is a deputy mayor, a grade-three official.

Johann Holloway is the City Government Secretary, a grade-four official.

Although Dirk Carter was half a rank higher than Johann Holloway,

In this position, he knew that City Government Secretaries usually don't hold some vice mayors in high regard. After all, the power they wield is indeed greater than a Secretary's.

From the moment he came in until now,

Johann Holloway showed no respect when speaking to Dirk Carter.

Instead, there was a bit of an overbearing attitude.

Given Dirk Carter's temperament, he wouldn't tolerate Johann Holloway.

But the current situation was different.

Dahlia Hughes had already opened her mouth, wrapping it around Dirk Carter's staff.

The warm and moist sensation immediately tightened his nerves, making him not dare to breathe deeply.

This feeling might be the one Dahlia Hughes experienced in Earl Carter's car earlier.

What goes around comes around.

"Alright, please, Secretary Holloway, help arrange it for me."

No matter what Johann Holloway said now, Dirk Carter would agree. His only request was for the outsider to leave quickly.

Johann Holloway was evidently a bit surprised.

He asked, "Anyone I choose?"

"Of course, it's all up to Secretary Holloway."

Dirk Carter answered.

Johann Holloway felt a bit dazed and somewhat disappointed, but since Dirk Carter said so, there wasn't anything more he could say.

After a pause, he said, "Alright then, Mayor Carter, you continue with your work, and I'll take my leave."

After saying that, Johann Holloway left dejectedly.

As soon as the door closed,

Dirk Carter wanted to discuss Johann Holloway's matter with Dahlia Hughes.

Before he could open his mouth,

Dahlia Hughes emerged from under the desk.

She said, "We'll talk about the matter later; first, you need to satiate me, or I'll stay in your office and won't leave today."

After saying that,

She pulled her skirt up to her waist,

Sitting on the desk.

Her legs spread wide apart.

Staring at Dirk Carter with her glistening eyes.

Dahlia Hughes was indeed something,

The space between her legs had already turned into a swamp,

With some already seeping through the gaps, spreading onto the desk surface.

Dirk Carter knew,

If he didn't give it some effort today, he wouldn't get through this.

"In these two years, your land has become more fertile."

Dirk Carter said with a smile.

Dahlia Hughes said mysteriously, "Maybe you'll find a surprise."

"A surprise? Could there be more? I'll have to try."

After saying that,

He directly held Dahlia Hughes's waist.

After aiming, he thrust strongly.

With a splat, they merged as one.

At that moment,

Dirk Carter widened his eyes in surprise and asked, "How did it get tighter than before?"
