A Bumpy Road to Power

Two hands first paused for a moment on Dirk Carter's buttocks.

There was a sense of teasing him.

Then.

A hand reached into the cleft, carefully searching, and after confirming there was nothing hidden.

Fiona finally let go of her hand.

Away from Dirk Carter's body.

Such a scene, to others, seemed quite enticing, quite amusing.

But for Dirk Carter, it was sheer humiliation.

After all, he was the Deputy Mayor of Veridia City, forced to strip naked and teased by a woman like this — wasn't this equivalent to rubbing the face of the Veridia City Municipal Government on the ground?

There was nothing on Dirk Carter.

So it must be on Gwendolyn Lewis.

But Gwendolyn Lewis was a woman.

Being forcibly required to strip naked was entirely different in nature.

"Secretary Lewis, is it your turn next?"

Terrence Hall asked.

At the same time, he scanned her body lecherously.

"Terrence Hall, dare you!"

Gwendolyn Lewis warned.

Terrence Hall gave a wicked smile.

He said, "At this point, what wouldn't I dare? Same as before, either Secretary Lewis hands it over, or she strips naked like Mayor Carter. I believe the item will be found eventually."

Dirk Carter certainly didn't want Gwendolyn Lewis to be treated in such a manner.

Just as he was about to advise her to give up.

Gwendolyn Lewis said, "Fine, I'll strip, but remember, Terrence Hall, once my clothes are off, I don't care who's backing you—you're done for."

After saying this.

Swiftly removed her jacket.

Then.

Unbuttoned her shirt at the fastest speed and tossed it on the ground.

Next.

In front of a dozen men.

Gwendolyn Lewis, with a determined look, took off her trousers.

With that.

She was left wearing only a set of sexy lingerie.

Needless to say, Gwendolyn Lewis had quite an impressive figure.

Several men nearby had their eyes light up, and drool dripped from their mouths.

The clothes were thoroughly searched.

Nothing was found.

Next.

Fiona took action again.

Carefully searched Gwendolyn Lewis's body.

This search was incredibly meticulous.

Not only did she open the bra to look inside, but she also used her hand to probe into her private parts. After confirming there was nothing, Fiona turned to Terrence Hall and shook her head in disappointment.

It's maddening.

The camera didn't have it, her body didn't have it.

Even the "nooks and crannies" were checked—still nothing found.

Could it really be, as Gwendolyn Lewis said from the start, that she didn't bring the storage card?

Terrence Hall started feeling a bit panic-stricken.

If the item could be found, he could still explain to Clark Fletcher, and Clark Fletcher would back him up in the end.

But if nothing was found.

Then today would be a big mess.

By then, his brother-in-law might not even help him out.

Thinking of this.

Terrence Hall glanced at Dirk Carter and Gwendolyn Lewis.

Mocked, "Didn't expect you two to be quite good at hiding."

"Terrence Hall, can you let us go now?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Terrence Hall laughed heartily.

He said, "Go? Where? Before the storage card shows up, nobody leaves. Ah Shui, strip all their clothes off and lock them in this room. When the storage card is handed over, then let these two go!"

After throwing out this sentence.

Terrence Hall left, hands behind his back.

Diego Fisher was just about to lay hands on Gwendolyn Lewis.

Gwendolyn Lewis gritting her teeth, shouted, "Don't touch me! I'll do it myself!"

After saying that.

First unclasped her bra.

Once the two white rabbits bounced out.

She hurriedly removed her panties.

Leaving her completely naked.

One hand crossed over to cover her chest's two grapes.

Another hand covered her groin, shielding her most private part.

She had already stripped.

Dirk Carter had no choice but to move.

Boldly took off his underwear and tossed it to Diego Fisher.

Once both were naked.

Diego Fisher waved his hand, ordering everyone to leave.

Not forgetting to give Gwendolyn Lewis one last look on the way out.

Dirk Carter noticed that at that moment, his Adam's apple moved—clearly swallowing saliva.

With a clang.

The door was shut.

Then came the sound of chains.

Which meant the door was completely locked from the outside.

Dirk Carter immediately thought there must be a camera in this office, hurriedly searching around—found nothing.

His hanging heart was just about put to rest.

Wanted to find a cloth to help Gwendolyn Lewis cover up.

But this was just an office on a construction site.

Couldn't find anything useful.

"Alright, stop looking, it's okay, we don't need to be so shy."

Gwendolyn Lewis spoke up voluntarily.

Indeed.

The two had not only had one encounter.

Although years have passed.

But they had explored each other's bodies thoroughly back then.

Released the hands covering.

Completely exposed herself to Dirk Carter.

At that moment.

Dirk Carter, deep inside, felt a warm wave release.

After many years, they were once again genuinely open to each other, and the tangled scenes from back then reappeared in his mind.

"What are you thinking about?"

Gwendolyn Lewis asked as she looked at Dirk Carter, who was staring at her.

Dirk Carter chuckled.

He said, "I'm thinking, why didn't I indulge more back then in such a wonderful body?"

"At this point, you still have the mood to think about that?"

Gwendolyn Lewis asked, slightly annoyed.

Dirk Carter laughed, "Men, after all, are creatures that think with their lower halves. Even in the most dangerous situation, being accompanied by a beauty like you is naturally worth it."

"Aren't you curious where I hid the storage card?"

Gwendolyn Lewis asked.

Dirk Carter paused.

Hurriedly asked, "Right, where did you hide it?"

Gwendolyn Lewis smiled mysteriously.

Went back to the sofa she had just sat on.

Reached into the gap of the sofa, searched inside, and a storage card appeared in her hand.

"Damn, you hid it in the sofa? Did you know they would do a body search?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Gwendolyn Lewis shook her head.

She said, "I didn't know, I didn't expect him to be so bold, but I knew that if he didn't find the storage card, he wouldn't let us go easily, so I took precautions, never thought it would really work."

At this moment.

The sound of an engine roaring was heard outside the room.

Dirk Carter hurriedly went to the door.

Peered through the gap outside.

Sighed with relief.

He said, "Fortunately, I kept the photos, they are now replacing materials."

Outside the door.

Several large engineering trucks appeared at the site.

A group of workers was loading the previous unqualified construction materials onto the trucks, probably wanting to destroy evidence too.

"So what do we do? We can't just stay locked up here, right?"

Gwendolyn Lewis asked.

Dirk Carter boldly laid down on the sofa.

He said, "If nothing unforeseen happens, Terrence Hall went to report to Clark Fletcher. He certainly doesn't want these shady dealings exposed, so he will definitely take some countermeasures, leaving us here as a way to buy time."
