“Kurtis Lee was once a romantic young man!“He can’t help being flirty every once in a while!“He was joking with you because he thought you looked pretty!“Not only are you completely ungrateful, but you also got your subordinate to take action against him?!“Do you think you’re actually being reasonable here?“Besides, even if Kurtis was planning to take advantage of you, why didn’t you just let him?!“You could’ve secured the deal with just being a few minutes with him!“What’s wrong with that?!“As the second-in-command, so what if you suffer a little for the sake of the land department?“You won’t die from it anyway!“I’m not a woman…“But if I am, and Kurtis is interested in me…“For the sake of the government, not only would I play along with him, I’d even acknowledge it if he wants me to be with him for the rest of his life!“Countless people had sacrificed themselves for the benefit of the country!“So what if someone flirted with you?“If you don’t even have th

Kairi ignored the crowd, and looked at Damon.“Do you want me out of here that badly? Don’t forget why I got here in the first place!”Damon shrugged.“I don’t care how you got here. Since you did, it can’t be considered a broken promise.“However! You have ruined the government’s business! You need to explain yourself. If not, how are we supposed to win the trust of the masses?”Chanse chuckled coldly.“That’s right! If people like you are still in such a high position… Well, it’s simply disrespectful to the law, the government, and the people!“You should leave already! If someone like you remains, the government will fall!”Chanse’s face was smug. ‘Two newbies trying to go against me? Hilarious!’Harvey sighed. “You people really are stupid, aren’t you? You don’t even understand what I’m saying, but you’re still running your mouths?“I admit that I broke Kurtis’ arms…but when did I say that he won’t sign the contract?”Chanse chuckled once more, the sound icy. “Are yo

The Lloyd family wasn’t an ordinary family of martial artists, either—they had the support of sacred martial arts training grounds as well. Even the top ten families had no choice but to give them respect. None dared to go against the Lloyds.Blaine only managed to call Keegan here because he owed Master Morgraine a favor. If not for that, he probably wouldn’t be able to ask for Keegan’s help, especially with just his identity.Damon’s deputies quickly stepped forward, admiration evident on their faces, as if they were in the presence of a hero.Chanse and the others didn’t know who Keegan was. Judging from Damon’s attitude, they could sense that he had an extraordinary identity.Chanse then looked at Kurtis, confused. ‘Didn’t he say that he has a huge support? That’s clearly him… But why does he still look a little timid now?’He had a bad feeling.“You’re too kind, Mr. Damon.” Keegan nodded at Damon. “Sorry for disturbing you today.”Keegan instinctively looked at Harvey; hi

“As expected from an elite like you, Mr. Damon. What a generous man! Even so, we have rules. The debt must always be repaid!”Keegan looked at Kairi with a stern expression.“Kurtis offended Madam Kairi, so I will only let this go with Madam Kairi’s permission.”Naturally, Keegan didn’t care about Damon’s opinion at all.This was the same as telling Damon that he had no right to decide upon the situation.Damon’s expression changed slightly. He didn’t think Keegan would completely ignore the first-in-command.With so many people here, he couldn’t help but feel a little embarrassed. He smiled at Kairi.“Oh, Kairi. We’re government officials. We represent the people’s benefit. We shouldn’t argue over something trivial!“Since you didn’t suffer any actual harm… Why don’t you give Mr. Kurtis a chance? How does that sound?”Naturally, Damon really wanted to get Kurtis out of the situation. Kurtis would then owe him a huge favor. Surely there would be a time when the stubborn man

Kurtis pulled out his phone, and played a recording with a trembling hand. It was the phone conversation between him and Chanse.No matter how sharp Chanse’s tongue was, he had no way of refuting the situation anymore.Kairi’s eyes turned cold. “A government official, yet you work with outside forces to harm your superior… What a heinous man you are, Chanse!”Harvey glanced at Capri.“It’s time for you to do your job, Director Capri. If you don’t give us an explanation for the situation… You won’t get to keep your position for long!”Capri’s eyes twitched. Inwardly, she cursed Harvey.If Dragon Cell was involved, Chanse would probably get a chance to live… But making her take care of the situation would mean that the John family had to butt in.Handling the situation publicly would turn away the government officials and their families. However, playing favoritism would give Harvey and Kairi’s people a chance for to take over the John family through the government.No matter w
