Though Donal Lewis was indignant, he knew that he couldn't stand against everyone with his own strength.
At this mont, he was experiencing the greatest failure of his career in the bureaucracy.
In that mont, a vague thought crossed his mind.
If he couldn't protect Dirk Carter, he was ready to resign.
After all, he never had any talent for the bureaucracy.
Little did he know, this was exactly the outco Sherman Sumrs wanted to see.
"Magistrate Sumrs, can I say sothing?"
Suddenly, Dirk Carter addressed Sherman Sumrs.
Sherman Sumrs cast a disdainful glance at Dirk Carter and said, "This is the Standing Committee, you aren't qualified to speak here. However, I suppose it doesn't hurt to let you say a few words."
Since it was a dominating situation.
Sherman Sumrs didn't mind.
He folded his arms, looked at Dirk Carter, curious about what he had to say.
Dirk Carter paused and said, "Magistrate Sumrs, you're an idiot."
As soon as those words were spoken.
Everyone's eyes went wide.
Sherman Sumrs was caught off guard.
He could hardly believe it, and asked, "What did you say?"
"I said, you — Sherman Sumrs — are a big idiot."
Dirk Carter repeated himself.
Bang!
Ty Adler was the first to jump out.
He slamd his palm on the table and pointed angrily at Dirk Carter, "Dirk Carter, this is the Standing Committee, what nonsense are you spouting?"
"You're an idiot too."
Dirk Carter said without breaking a sweat.
He was a nobody, cursing freely.
But the others present were all committee leaders, and if they were as crude as Dirk Carter, they'd lose face.
Ty Adler also wanted to curse back.
But considering his position, he held his tongue.
He could only blush and angrily said, "Say it again if you have the guts."
"What if I say it again? Ty Adler, you're an idiot. Screw you and your whole family, what can you do? Bite ?"
"Rude, rude, too rude, blatantly disrespecting leadership and organization, such a person must be expelled, imdiately expelled!"
Ty Adler was so angry that his nostrils flared.
But besides saying that, he couldn't do anything else.
"Comrade Dirk Carter, this is the Standing Committee, not a place where you can just say anything, please respect this occasion and the leaders present."
Caron Sumrs, secretary of the Judicial and Legal Committee, couldn't watch anymore and knocked on the table.
Dirk Carter sneered and asked, "What? You all are about to expel , and I have to show you respect and gratitude, thank you for expelling ? Wearing suits and ties, acting like big shots, apart from eating and drinking, what else can you do? Sherman Sumrs throws you a few crumbs, and you lick them up like lapdogs, where's your dignity and baseline as people?"
Facing Dirk Carter's reproach.
Such a large group of people.
Besides Augustus Hendrix, who lowered his head and secretly laughed, everyone else was so angry they wished they could give Dirk Carter a couple of slaps.
But they didn't dare.
Once those slaps landed.
If Dirk Carter played the rogue, they'd be in trouble.
"Comrade Dirk Carter, you'd better think about the consequences of your insults."
Sherman Sumrs, who was gloating just a mont ago, was now almost depressed from Dirk Carter's insults. With a gloomy face, he warned.
Dirk Carter laughed and leaned in closer to Sherman Sumrs, "Magistrate Sumrs, what consequences? Insulting people isn't illegal, right? You, this control freak, manipulating the committee under false charges to expel , so what if I insult you? I'm not only insulting you, I'm insulting your ancestors up to eighteen generations..."
At this mont.
Physical attacks were already ineffective.
Dirk Carter had begun using "magic."
To let them fully experience the feeling The Scholar had when faced with soldiers, unable to reason.
"I agree to imdiately expel Comrade Dirk Carter from his position as a secretary in the County Office."
Looking at Dirk Carter spewing words like a machine gun.
Ty Adler finally couldn't hold back.
He was the first to raise his hand and shout.
Caron Sumrs, also infuriated, quickly raised his hand and shouted, "I agree too."
"I agree!"
"I agree!"
...
The others also raised their hands one after another.
Except for the position of Minister of Organization which was not yet in place.
Out of ten committee mbers present, eight raised their hands imdiately.
No need to say more, the result was already a foregone conclusion.
Looking at everyone's raised hands, Sherman Sumrs disdainfully glanced at Dirk Carter, "You may have won the verbal battle, but what does it matter, does it change the outco? Once you step out of this door, you're nothing."
After saying this.
His gaze fell on Donal Lewis, as if in provocation, with a cold sneer, "Alright, based on everyone's opinion, I announce that Comrade Dirk Carter—"
The rest of the words were interrupted by a loud bang.
The conference room door was pushed open.
Garnett Golding hurriedly ran in.
Directly walked over to Sherman Sumrs' ear and whispered sothing.
Sherman Sumrs' eyes imdiately went wide.
Nervously he asked, "When? Where?"
Garnett Golding quickly said, "The person is already here and is heading straight for the eting room."
Once these words were out.
Sherman Sumrs was dumbfounded.
In a montary delay, he sprang up.
Before he could leave his seat, two n in black suits ca in and opened both doors of the conference room.
An elderly man, dressed plainly, with graying hair, appeared at the door.
Dirk Carter was dumbstruck.
Wasn't this elderly man Elaine Nolan's grandfather, Mr. Nolan?
Just preparing to greet him.
With a swoosh, all ten standing committee mbers stood up instantly, each one with visibly tense expressions.
"Mr. Nolan, what brings you here?"
Donal Lewis hadn't yet moved when Sherman Sumrs, the first to react, went forward with a fawning face, bowing.
The others didn't dare slack off, and they also left their seats, surrounding the elderly man in the center, each wearing an enthusiastic expression, as if eting the God of Wealth.
No, they probably wouldn't be this deferential even if they saw the God of Wealth.
"Hehe, you're all in a eting? Am I disturbing you?"
The elderly man's face broke into a smile as he asked.
Sherman Sumrs quickly said, "No, no, Mr. Nolan, if you co, we stop even the biggest eting. Mr. Nolan, co, I'll take you to my office."
Sherman Sumrs extended a hand in a "please" gesture.
Mr. Nolan waved his hand and said, "You continue your eting, I'm not here for you."
After speaking.
His eyes wandered through the crowd.
Scanning around, he fixed his gaze on Dirk Carter, and quickly beckoned to him, "Dirk, co over, to grandpa's side."
Dirk Carter was also a bit baffled.
Could this elderly man really have co for him?
Hearing the elderly man call Dirk.
Everyone present was shocked.
Especially Sherman Sumrs, whose eyes were nearly popping out.
"Mr. Nolan, why are you here?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Only to see Mr. Nolan take his hand right in front of everyone, smiling as he said, "What? Can't I miss you?"
With just a simple sentence.
Once again, everyone was so scared they broke into cold sweat.
Mr. Nolan was actually saying he missed Dirk Carter, how could this be possible?
Sherman Sumrs, hearing these words, looked even more unpleasant, with his heart pounding so hard it seed it would leap out of his throat.
"Mr. Nolan, I'm still in a eting here, how about you wait for outside, and I'll co over after the eting?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Rude!
Too rude!
Dirk Carter actually asked Mr. Nolan to wait outside.
A look of panic appeared on their faces, and so committee mbers' hands even began to tremble.
Hearing this, Mr. Nolan's face darkened, and he said to Donal Lewis who was squeezed to the back, "Donal, I'm taking Dirk Carter, do you have any objections?"
"No objections, no objections, Mr. Nolan, you have the final say."
Donal Lewis waved his hand in fear.
Mr. Nolan again grasped Dirk Carter's hand and said, "Let's go, your leader has agreed."
