Chapter 1048 - 1048

"Sorry, Secretary Payne, from now on, I no longer accept your orders."

Always obedient Walter Hughes, however, showed no respect this time.

He spoke rudely directly to Griffith Payne.

Griffith Payne was furious.

"You don't accept my orders, whose orders do you accept? Who told you to come here?"

Griffith Payne shouted.

"It's me!"

At the doorway.

A full-bodied voice came through.

Joachim Young, wearing a polo shirt with his hands behind his back, walked in.

Walter Hughes saluted Joachim Young and respectfully said, "Report to the leader, all criminal suspects have been arrested, please instruct."

"Hand them over to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection."

Joachim Young said.

"Yes!"

Walter Hughes saluted again.

He directed his subordinates to take out Brent Lowell's detained men one by one.

"Joachim Young, what are you doing? Are you trying to rebel?"

Griffith Payne shouted sternly.

Joachim Young smiled and said, "Secretary Payne, what are you talking about? I'm just cooperating with the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection's actions, can't you see?"

His words made Griffith Payne choke.

Of course.

The police did not take any coercive measures against Griffith Payne, Bronson Marshall, or Brent Lowell.

After all, they are still in leadership positions.

The situation took a sharp turn.

No one foresaw this.

Especially Brent Lowell, who, despite all his defenses, never expected Joachim Young to be Dirk Carter's final assistance.

The one who broke the stalemate, as Dirk Carter said, was indeed in Greshire County.

"Secretary General Carter..."

Joachim Young walked up to Dirk Carter and called out.

Dirk Carter smiled slightly, jumped off the coffee table, and said, "You made the right choice after all."

Joachim Young just grinned sheepishly without saying anything.

"Secretary Payne, do you have any more tricks up your sleeve? I'm waiting..."

Dirk Carter said to Griffith Payne.

Griffith Payne's legs that had just settled down started trembling again, in the scorching heat, even his teeth were chattering.

"Enough, don't waste time, Heath Woods, take him away."

Dirk Carter waved his hand and said.

Heath Woods led the commission members straight up.

They took Griffith Payne and Bronson Marshall away in pairs.

As they left the hall, there was a joke, Griffith Payne's pants were wet...

Now, only the main character of the whole story remains.

The situation had been broken.

Trying to reverse the situation is clearly impossible for Brent Lowell.

He took a deep breath.

He said, "Dirk Carter, I am a National People's Congress representative, you can't arrest me."

"Of course I can't arrest you, you didn't see the police didn't touch you, the commission members didn't touch you either, I'm merely inviting you to the commission's residence for a chat, Griffith Payne was arrested here, it's not excessive to go back as a witness and give a statement, right?"

This move.

Completely circumvented the risk of violations.

Apparently, Dirk Carter had already prepared his countermeasures.

Brent Lowell stood still in place.

Dirk Carter chuckled and said, "Secretary Lowell, are you still waiting for news from my villa, then trying to threaten me and reverse the situation?"

Brent Lowell was taken aback.

He looked up in disbelief at Dirk Carter.

"You... How did you know?"

Brent Lowell stammered.

Dirk Carter smiled and said, "I just mentioned, on the first day I arrived in Greshire County, I knew you had already grasped my purpose, which means that there was a leak on my end, undoubtedly, it must have been the people at the villa who revealed the actions to you."

It was like a bolt from the blue.

Brent Lowell was stunned.

He looked at Dirk Carter as if he had seen a ghost.

He never imagined that this young Commission Secretary would be such a terrifying figure.

It seemed as though nothing could escape his sight.

Any trick you could think of, he appeared to have already prepared defenses for.

"Then you..."

Brent Lowell moved his lips and asked two words.

Dirk Carter understood his meaning.

He said, "So, my secretary hasn't been around me these days, you must not have noticed that fact. He had already prepared around the villa; once your people moved, he did as well, if there's still no news, it seems the people you sent to the villa have been captured."

Suddenly.

Brent Lowell collapsed onto the ground.

The last hope extinguished.

The feeling of confidence collapsing instantly was one of despair.

At this moment, the light in his eyes had dimmed.

Like a pile of muddy clay, he lay motionless.

"County Chief Young, send a few people to help Secretary Lowell, he might be feeling unwell."

Dirk Carter jested.

Joachim Young responded.

He waved his hand.

Two policemen arrived, lifted him from the floor, and escorted him out of the theater's hall.

"Wait a moment."

Just as the escorted Brent Lowell was about to leave, Dirk Carter suddenly called.

He hastily walked to Brent Lowell's side and said, "Look back once, you might never see this your lifetime's hard work again."

Brent Lowell straightened up.

He glanced back at the magnificent hall of the theater.

From the corner of his eye, a tear slipped down.

Dirk Carter didn't know whether at that moment it was regret or despair.

A case that others thought impossible to handle was broken by these consecutive moves by Dirk Carter.

Up next.

Was the commission's process to clean up the theater.

Dirk Carter handed the cleanup task to Heath Woods.

Urging him to fix all the evidence overnight that day and report to the National People's Congress early the next morning.

Meanwhile, he himself.

Drove a commission vehicle straight to the villa.

A few hours ago.

The villa's living room was brightly lit.

In the living room.

Four women sat on the sofa.

No one spoke.

But their expressions were anxious.

It was evident, Dirk Carter's actions affected each of them emotionally.

They didn't know how long had passed.

Mona was the first to sit uneasily.

She stood up and said, "How about making a call to Dirk and ask him? Waiting like this isn't a solution."

"No!"

Mona immediately countered, "Dirk is busy right now, let's not disturb him, I believe in him, this operation will definitely succeed, and Brent Lowell will be punished."

"Mona, you trust him that much? He's a newly appointed Commission Secretary, is he truly that capable?"

Braulio Golding said in a sly tone.

Mona firmly nodded.

She said, "I believe in him."

"Tsk, don't be too optimistic, don't let him fail, and instead get us all involved too."

Braulio Golding said.

"Whatever, I just believe in him!"

Mona retorted back.

Braulio Golding suddenly became angry.

Stood up and asked Mona, "Mona, what's so great about Dirk Carter, don't forget, he's a married man, there's no future for the two of you, don't be foolish, okay? No man is trustworthy, he's no different!"

"Shut up! From now on, there's nothing between us, and after this matter, we won't need to contact each other."

Mona's face flushed.

She scolded with a hint of anger.
