Two days, just two days later.

The news from Crestfall City ca back.

The matter of Carly Lambert's corruption and bribery was indeed true.

When Cornell Morgan got this result, he was so pleasantly surprised in his office that he nearly jumped up.

Ten minutes later.

He knocked on the door of Carly Lambert's office.

Upon entering, Carly was reviewing docunts, maintaining the image she usually projected—serious, aloof, and proud.

"Oh, it's Mayor Morgan, is there sothing you need?"

Cornell Morgan stood there for a mont.

Carly only looked up to ask.

"Secretary Lambert, are you free? I'd like to have a chat."

Cornell Morgan confidently sat down on the sofa and lit a cigarette.

Carly frowned and said, "Mayor Morgan, no smoking in my office; I can't stand the sll of smoke."

Cornell Morgan wasn't flustered, nor did he extinguish the cigarette; instead, he flicked the ash directly on the ground, disdainfully asking, "Secretary Lambert, what if I insist on smoking?"

"Then I'll have to ask Mayor Morgan to leave."

Carly said without a hint of courtesy.

Cornell Morgan laughed heartily, saying, "Secretary Lambert, don't be so heartless. We do have many common topics to discuss, like..."

He ntioned two nas.

These were two businessn from Crestfall City who had once bribed Carly Lambert.

Upon hearing this.

Carly's expression changed dramatically.

She got up and closed the door to her office.

Turning back, she asked, "Cornell Morgan, how did you know about this?"

"How I know doesn't matter, Secretary Lambert, but I'm quite curious how such a high and cold beauty like you could do such a thing."

"I..."

Carly's face flushed red.

She stamred, "I... I was deceived by a man."

"But corruption and bribery are facts, and the amount isn't small, over four hundred thousand. As soone working in the party committee, can you tell how many years that earns?"

As soon as Cornell Morgan finished speaking.

Carly quickly rushed up to him, anxiously asking, "What exactly do you want?"

Cornell Morgan's eyes scanned Carly up and down, and his roguish look was a sure sign of no good intentions.

Carly instinctively guarded her chest.

Seeing this.

Cornell Morgan smiled and said, "Rest assured, Secretary Lambert, I'm not yet interested in you in that way. If you can help with sothing else, I might keep quiet about this."

"What is it? Tell ."

Carly asked nervously.

Cornell Morgan leisurely asked, "I hear Secretary Lambert is on good terms with Dirk Carter?"

"Not particularly."

Carly said.

Cornell Morgan didn't expose her lie and laughed, "Whether it's just 'not particularly' or 'been intimate', I have one request. I want Sydney Tanner from Dirk Carter. You need to find out where she's hidden."

"Sorry, I can't do that!"

Carly said firmly.

Cornell Morgan slapped his knee.

Stood up, and said, "Alright, if that's the case, I'll have to report everything I know to the Commission for Discipline Inspection."

Just as he reached the door.

Carly called out, "Wait a minute."

This "hold back" was within Cornell Morgan's expectations.

"Secretary Lambert, have a change of heart?"

Cornell Morgan confidently asked.

Carly pressed her lips together and said, "Three days, give three days, and I'll find out Sydney Tanner's address for you."

"One day, you only have one day. I don't care how you do it, but by this ti tomorrow, you must give an answer."

Cornell Morgan uncompromisingly said.

Carly gritted her teeth and said, "Fine, one day it is."

"Hahaha..."

After laughing out loud.

Cornell Morgan opened the door and left.

Behind him ca the sound of a cup shattering on the ground.

At that mont, Cornell Morgan was in an exceptionally good mood.

Pounding the pavent for what seed impossible, ca without any effort. As long as he got Sydney Tanner, he could counter Robert Shepherd, and besides, once this is over, Dirk Carter is bound to fall.

The feeling of killing two birds with one stone was truly wonderful.

"Carly Lambert, just you wait. Once this is done, I also want to savor that body of yours…"

On the way back, Cornell Morgan thought to himself.

He didn't know.

That as he left the Municipal Committee Building and entered the Municipal Governnt Building, Carly was watching clearly from the window.

Then.

She hurriedly left the office and knocked on Dirk Carter's door.

"Cornell Morgan ca to see you?"

Dirk Carter saw the expression on Carly's face and imdiately caught on, asking.

Carly nodded and sighed, "As you guessed, he's after Sydney Tanner."

Dirk Carter smiled slightly, took out a pre-prepared note, handed it to Carly, and said, "The address is on it. Don't be in such a hurry to give it to him. Wait until after tonight."

Opening the note.

Sure enough, there was an address on it.

Carly asked, "Are you really going to hand over Sydney Tanner to him?"

"Of course we have to give her to him, otherwise how will Robert Shepherd's faction react?"

Upon hearing this.

Carly seed to co to so realization.

Dirk Carter's tactic was to borrow a knife to kill.

No need to say more, once Cornell Morgan gets Sydney Tanner, Robert Shepherd's faction will certainly be on high alert, sitting it out and watching the tigers fight is better than getting involved personally, right?

Such a brilliant strategy.

Not only did it involve Cheney Marshall.

But it also managed to bring both Cornell Morgan and Robert Shepherd into the ga.

This layout was complete; all that remained was to wait for the two sides to tear each other apart.

Carly swallowed hard and asked, "What about ? Will I also beco a sacrifice?"

Dirk Carter patted her on the shoulder and said, "My people have already gone to Crestfall City; everyone on that list, I will deal with them for you, from now on, Cheney Marshall poses no threat to you."

"Really?"

Carly's eyes lit up imdiately.

Dirk Carter nodded slightly and said, "I said from the start, once I promise you, I will surely see it through. You just focus on doing your job well as the deputy secretary."

This news was simply fantastic.

The shackles that had haunted her heart finally felt completely lifted at that mont, the relief could not be overstated.

Carly didn't care that they were in the office anymore.

She hugged Dirk Carter's neck and kissed him with her red lips...

Twisting with passion, their lips and tongues intertwined.

Carly's body beca soft and pliant.

In Dirk Carter's ear, she whispered softly, "Dirk, when I'm in a good mood, I get really wanting."

"So do you want it now?"

Dirk Carter asked mischievously.

Carly nodded eagerly and said, "I do, I really do, if you don't believe , feel for yourself."

Then.

She grabbed Dirk Carter's hand, leading it up her skirt.

Sure enough, in that warm corner, the lining underneath was completely soaked through.

It was clear that at this mont she was already in a state of great excitent.

"Alright then, since Secretary Lambert has such an interest, I'll accompany you with my life, madam."

Dirk Carter finished saying.

And rolled her pencil skirt up to her waist, pulled down the soaked cover, knelt on the couch, and effortlessly entered...
