A Bumpy Road to Power

Lily was waiting for Dirk Carter to ask this question.

She flicked her bangs, struck a proud pose, then clung to the old man's arm affectionately and said, "This is the father of my child, Bradley Tatum, Chairman of Apexion Group."

Dirk Carter understood.

The so-called father of her child meant that Lily was Bradley Tatum's mistress, and not just any mistress—she had borne him a child.

However, one had to admit, for her to secure a chairman of a group, Lily certainly had some skills.

Then Lily stood up, walked over to a middle-aged man opposite Dirk Carter, and said, "This is Hywel Sutton, Mr. Sutton, the owner of Petalwash Stream Restaurant, a well-known tycoon in the dining industry of Argentum."

What happened next.

Left Dirk Carter dumbfounded.

After Lily introduced Hywel Sutton's identity.

Right in front of everyone, Hywel Sutton actually placed his hand on Lily's waist and began to caress her.

Then.

His hand moved down.

Directly to Lily's behind.

He began to knead the uplifted part.

Damn.

What's going on here?

Didn't Lily just say Bradley Tatum was her man?

How could Hywel Sutton "flirt" with her right in front of Bradley Tatum?

Moreover, Bradley Tatum saw this whole action, not only was he not angry, but he actually wore a smile, an expression of "I've seen it all before."

As previously mentioned.

When Dirk Carter arrived, it was three men and two women.

Meaning, by Hywel Sutton's side, there was also a young and sexy woman seated.

If nothing unexpected happens, she should be Hywel Sutton's companion.

But she had no reaction to Hywel Sutton's action, her expression didn't even flicker.

After Hywel Sutton had enough of his hand fetish.

Lily walked straight over to the third man.

This man was the youngest of the three, probably around forty years old.

Before the introduction began.

The man grabbed Lily's waist and made her sit right on his thigh.

In front of everyone, his hands reached straight to Lily's chest, torturing the "two bunnies" over her clothes.

As he kneaded hard, he lewdly asked, "Hey Bradley, haven't you been caressing them a lot these days? These two lumps have fermented quite a bit."

Bradley Tatum heard this.

Burst into hearty laughter and said, "That's not my doing, that's thanks to Hywel, look at your Cherry, she's obviously grown too."

"Oh, really?"

Hearing this, the man immediately reached a hand over to cover the chest of the woman beside him.

He closed his eyes and experienced it for a moment.

Mumbling, he said, "Wow, it seems indeed bigger, Hywel, looks like you have some secret methods you haven't shared with us."

"Hahaha, well, I'm not telling you, lest all of you learn it and starve the master to death,"

Hywel Sutton laughed heartily and said.

He nudged the woman beside him and said, "You go over to Bradley's side, Sasa come here, let me energize you again."

As soon as he finished speaking.

The sexy woman who had been accompanying him stood up.

Sitting directly beside Bradley Tatum.

She was the most provocatively dressed of the three women.

Her top was a camisole.

The bottom was a miniskirt.

Just as she sat down.

Bradley Tatum's wandering hand crept through her skirt, exploring between her legs.

What he did exactly was unknown.

But the woman's face quickly flushed.

She moaned softly with hurried breaths.

"Hywel, you've trained your Cherry to be naughtier, haven't you? I barely did anything, and now my hand's wet, see for yourselves."

Before everyone.

Bradley Tatum showed his fingers.

Sure enough, they were stained with some glistening fluid.

And after Sasa took her seat next to Hywel Sutton.

Hywel Sutton shamelessly opened his belt, unzipped, and grabbed Sasa's hair.

Sasa understandingly bent down.

With the table blocking the view.

Dirk Carter couldn't see the most exaggerated scene.

But Sasa's bobbing head was still visible.

Of course, he knew what Sasa was doing at that moment.

At this point.

Dirk Carter finally discerned some truth.

This was no ordinary gathering, to be blunt, it was a wife-swapping event.

Of course.

These three women were not the legitimate wives of the three men; maybe they were just among their many mistresses.

Earlier, he thought Lily was quite capable.

Now it seemed she was merely a toy in many men's hands.

"Excuse me, everyone, please go on, I'm leaving now."

In such an atmosphere, Dirk Carter felt awkward staying.

Standing up.

Lily quickly slid off the last man's lap.

Shouting, "Dirk, don't be in such a hurry, I haven't finished introducing everyone yet."

"No need, you all are elite among elites, not people at my level can aspire to be like,"

Dirk Carter said coldly and turned to leave.

At that moment.

A glass cup was thrown at him and smashed right in front of him.

Dirk Carter turned to look.

The glass was thrown by the man Lily hadn't had the chance to introduce yet.

"Damn it, don't act so ungrateful, who let you leave? You think you can just come and go as you please, like a market?"

The man said rudely.

Hywel Sutton saw the situation.

Picked up the phone on the table.

Dialed a number.

Coldly eyed Dirk Carter and said into the phone, "Have some men come up and block the door of my private room, without my command, no one is allowed to leave."

Shortly after the call ended.

Sounds of intensive footsteps were heard outside.

Stopping abruptly at the doorway.

Clearly.

Leaving the private room wouldn't be easy for Dirk Carter.

"Lily, what do you mean by this?"

Dirk Carter asked.

Lily still wore a complacent expression.

Arrogantly said, "Didn't I say, I'm treating you to dinner, and we haven't even eaten yet, why the rush to leave? I have to thank you properly for exiling me to Glenwood Township all those years ago, if it weren't for you, I might still be stuck dealing with you losers in the poor town of Stillwater County."

It was only later that Dirk Carter found out.

The turning point in Lily's fate occurred after she had been in Glenwood Township for half a year.

Glenwood Township was a desolate, poor, and remote place, requiring several buses and hours of travel to reach the city.

Back then, Glenwood Township was a "place of exile."

Used to city life, Lily felt uneasy everywhere when she first arrived at the godforsaken place, enduring many hardships.

First, the lack of basic supplies, every day was just plain meals.

Second, power outages every few days, and water had to be fetched from a well.

Living on the brink of collapse every day for the seventh month, Lily turned her life around.
