A Bumpy Road to Power

The most deadly part was, Patricia Payne wasn't wearing any underwear inside.

Especially the two protrusions on her chest, they were clearly visible.

Who was Patricia Payne?

She was a woman who earned money with her body.

A woman like that would definitely be lured by money.

During the conversation, she also observed Dirk Carter.

Seeing him adorned with gold, her heart began to ripple.

She quickly waved her hand and said, "No need, no need, where's your place, let's go, I'll go with you to hold the ladder."

Dirk Carter led her into a house right in front of the small courtyard they rented.

The sky was dark already.

The room was pitch black, at first, Patricia Payne felt somewhat afraid.

In the middle of the living room, there was already a wobbly ladder placed, making it somewhat difficult for one person to climb up.

And then.

With Patricia Payne's assistance.

Dirk Carter climbed up the ladder to change a light bulb.

All at once, the house lit up brightly.

The moment the light came on, it hooked Patricia Payne's heart.

Because she saw three stacks of money on the coffee table, the kind fresh from the bank, still sealed, three stacks, amounting to about three hundred thousand.

Conceiving a thought.

She asked, "Big brother, you're not a local, right?"

While putting away the ladder, Dirk Carter said, "No, I'm here in Ronan City for business, just arrived a few days ago, rented this courtyard, and today just moved in."

"Oh, what kind of business are you in, big brother?"

Patricia Payne asked.

Dirk Carter feigned an innocent smile, scratching his head, said, "Nothing big, just collecting traditional medicine from different places, staying here a few days, then there a few days, anyway, no fixed place."

"And your wife is okay with that?"

Patricia Payne asked.

Dirk Carter could tell Patricia Payne was probing him.

He waved his hand, saying, "Where is there a wife, these years of running around, haven't settled down, ah, whatever, one person making money, one person spending, happy and carefree."

During the conversation.

Dirk Carter invited Patricia Payne to sit down.

At the same time, he casually gathered the thirty thousand on the coffee table and tossed it into a suitcase by the sofa.

That simple action.

Instantly made Patricia Payne even more unable to resist.

She saw piles of cash in the suitcase, just a quick scan, easily seventy to eighty thousand.

Swallowing her saliva.

She asked, "Big brother, isn't it unsafe carrying so much cash around?"

Dirk Carter poured Patricia Payne a glass of water.

Cavalierly said, "This is all money from collecting medicine, what's unsafe about it, security is good now, even if robbed, at most lose money but keep life, anyway, nothing's happened all these years."

"Does collecting medicine earn that much?"

"Pretty good, enough to get by, one person not hungry, whole family well off, life's okay."

Dirk Carter humbly said.

This is what he calls okay?

Patricia Payne's heart was full of envy.

Thinking that this big brother was still single, a plan formed in her mind.

Sitting beside Dirk Carter, she unwittingly lifted the hem of her nightgown a bit.

With that.

Baring her thighs.

The pink panties inside deliberately shown to Dirk Carter.

Clearly, she intended to use the same trick on Dirk Carter again.

Dirk Carter feigned an unintentional glimpse.

Deliberately freezing for a moment.

Then licking his lips, he asked, "Little sister, enough about me, tell me about you, what does your man do?"

"Man? I don't have one, I'm also single."

Such subtlety couldn't escape Patricia Payne's eyes.

Seeing the allure was effective.

She leaned forward to reach a cup, intentionally presenting her ample breasts to Dirk Carter.

Not wearing a bra, they were undeniably attractive.

Dirk Carter feigned accidentally noticing.

His eyes widened.

Swallowed, saying, "Little sister, earlier I saw your big brother go out, isn't he your man?"

"Oh! That's a long story, I'm really unfortunate..."

Patricia Payne's lips parted.

Another self-directed story concocted in no time.

She told Dirk Carter she was divorced and had been deceived by Blythe Meadows.

She said Blythe Meadows was addicted to gambling, often abusing her; she wanted to leave for a long time but had no chance.

This woman is truly a natural born actress.

Tears genuinely squeezed out as she spoke.

"Little sister, you truly are unfortunate, being with such a man is just bad luck, we both are fellow sufferers, kindred spirits meeting by chance, come, little sister, take this money, if it's not enough, I'll give you more."

Dirk Carter pulled a stack of money from the suitcase.

Tossed it in front of Patricia Payne.

With a few thousand at least.

Seeing Dirk Carter so generous, Patricia Payne wasn't content with just a few thousand.

She stood up.

Directly sat down next to Dirk Carter.

Deliberately pressing her soft round breasts against Dirk Carter's body, swaying while saying, "Big brother, you're a good man, I really can't take this money, if you don't mind, take me with you, I'll cook and clean and keep you warm, I'll do anything, I don't want money, just a meal."

As she spoke.

Patricia Payne took Dirk Carter's hand, placed it directly on her pale thighs.

Dirk Carter feigned rapid breathing.

Seemingly struggling with his thoughts.

Suddenly, Dirk Carter withdrew his hand.

Said, "Little sister, honestly, I'm fond of you too, but this won't do, you still have a man, and I'm not that kind of person."

Upon hearing this.

Patricia Payne felt a twinge of disappointment.

But at the same time, a glimmer of hope.

She put on a sincere face, asking, "Big brother, so if I'm single, will you take me away?"

"Of course, as long as you're single, there's nothing stopping us."

Dirk Carter said.

Patricia Payne still wasn't reassured.

Tentatively asked, "Big brother, what if I separate from my man and you don't want me then?"

Dirk Carter feigned deep thought.

Then suddenly understanding said, "Little sister, I am sincere, so..."

At this point.

He fetched a plastic bag, went to the suitcase, grabbed three stacks of money, threw them in, and handed it to Patricia Payne.

Said, "Look, it's not much, but it's a guarantee, once I see you've left your man for good, the money is yours, and my savings we'll spend together."

Holding the plastic bag with thirty thousand.

Patricia Payne was trembling with excitement.

With Blythe Meadows over the years, she had not led a good life.

Now, a golden opportunity fell from the sky, a foolish rich man appeared.
