A Bumpy Road to Power Chapter 511 511

The secretary didn't know how to explain it.

Dragged Jonah Wright over to the computer.

After a tap on the keyboard, a forum webpage popped up.

Scrolling down with the mouse.

Pictures suddenly appeared before their eyes.

Jonah Wright glanced at them and was imdiately stunned.

There were a lot of photos, at least dozens, showing every corner of Stillwater County's streets filled with banners, posters, and the like.

"Warning: Donal Lewis seized power, causing harm for centuries."

"All units and departnts, no one is allowed to attend Donal Lewis's morial service, violators will be severely punished."

"Overthrow Donal Lewis, protect Stillwater County's clear sky."

"..."

Similar slogans were everywhere, including public bus ads, elevator ads, and even on the large screens in shopping malls, showing these slogans in a constant loop, appearing quite eye-catching.

"What's going on?"

Jonah Wright asked in astonishnt.

The secretary shook his head and said, "I don't know, I don't know who's behind this."

Jonah Wright was fuming.

These slogans indeed expressed his sentints, but those idiots below actually publicized them, wasn't this a setup for him?

"Boss, I'll call soone to take them down right away."

The secretary said.

Jonah Wright squinted his eyes.

Said, "It's fine, Donal Lewis will be cremated tomorrow anyway, it's not too late to take the banners down then."

"But…"

"What's the big deal, the man is dead, even if soone sees it, so what, I'll deal with whatever happens."

Jonah Wright said.

Since things were like this.

The secretary had nothing to worry about.

As he was preparing to leave, there was a sudden bang as the office door was "slamd" open again.

Office director Danel Walsh rushed in nervously, gasping for breath, saying, "County Chief Wright, sothing's wrong, there's trouble."

Jonah Wright frowned and asked, "What now?"

Danel Walsh took a deep breath.

Suppressing his pounding heart, he said, "Donal Lewis… Donal Lewis..."

"Did he co back from the dead? Why so startled."

"It's… it's more serious than that… many have gone to pay respects..."

Danel Walsh said breathlessly.

Jonah Wright furrowed his brows and said, "Damn it, I repeatedly said not to pay respects, yet there are those trying to undermine , you both go and get the nas, I want to see who is so clueless..."

"It's… it's the provincial and municipal leaders..."

Danel Walsh stomped his foot and said.

Jonah Wright froze, his face instantly stiffened, asking, "What did you say? Provincial and municipal leaders?"

Danel Walsh nodded and said, "State Committee Deputy Secretary Charleston Thorne, Provincial Military District Commissar Brandt Fisher have already arrived at the funeral ho, Municipal Secretary Conway Sawyer, Deputy Municipal Secretary Yolanda Woods, and Organizational Minister Dahlia Hughes have all left the highway, heading straight to the funeral ho, and county leaders who received the news have already headed over."

This was the key info.

Jonah Wright wished he could kick Danel Walsh to death; he wasted so much ti on nonsense earlier.

At this mont, she was also incredibly shocked.

He had worked with Donal Lewis for so long.

He never believed Donal Lewis had any ties at the provincial or municipal level.

Even more unlikely to know State Committee Deputy Secretary Charleston Thorne and Provincial Military District Commissar Brandt Fisher, but how could they co to pay respects?

No ti to worry about too much.

Recalling all those slogans seen online.

His heart was in his throat.

It's over, it's really over now…

"Get the car ready, quickly, to the funeral ho!"

Jonah Wright shouted.

Around eleven o'clock in the morning.

Jonah Wright's car arrived at the funeral ho's parking lot.

Sure enough, looking around, the parking lot was filled with cars from the State Committee and Provincial Governnt, the Municipal Governnt.

Shivered slightly, got out of the car, and rushed toward the mourning hall.

Upon seeing the scene.

Near the mourning hall, it was filled with leaders.

Not caring to engage with them, he rushed into the mourning hall, fell to his knees before the coffin, wailing, "Secretary Lawson, oh, my Secretary Lawson, why have you gone... So suddenly departed, what am I supposed to do... Secretary Lawson..."

Really have to admit.

Jonah Wright's acting was quite convincing.

Crying with authentic flair, but after long effort, couldn't force out tears.

"County Chief Wright, why are you crying?"

At this mont, Dirk Carter stepped out from the side and asked.

Seeing Dirk Carter, Jonah Wright hesitated for a mont before saying sadly, "Dirk Carter, you're here too, I'm here to pay respects to Secretary Lawson..."

"But Secretary Lawson has already been cremated."

Dirk Carter said.

Jonah Wright froze.

Stood up, looked inside the coffin, and indeed, the transparent coffin was empty.

"Secretary Lawson, oh, I've co too late, how have you gone, Secretary Lawson... why didn't you wait for ?"

Jonah Wright once again howled in grief.

The entire mourning hall echoed with his sorrowful and ghostly cries.

"Jonah Wright, co over here!"

Suddenly, a loud reprimand sounded from behind.

Jonah Wright shivered, turned suddenly, seeing Municipal Secretary Conway Sawyer staring coldly at him.

Imdiately stood up, timidly walking over to Conway Sawyer, nodding and bowing, saying, "Hello Secretary Sawyer."

"I've got a question, what are those slogans along my way here?"

"Slogans? What slogans? I don't know."

Jonah Wright played dumb.

Conway Sawyer sneered, saying, "You don't know? Did you fly from the County Governnt? The slogans are everywhere, you don't know, I got chewed out by the leaders, and now you tell you don't know? Aren't those words exactly what you said to the people in all the units?"

"I didn't."

Actually, Jonah Wright was already so scared his throat was tight.

But he knew, no matter what, he couldn't admit to it now.

"You don't know? Fine! You're still deceiving the organization, deceiving the leaders, you shouldn't stay as county chief, go back and reflect well, as for what your next steps are, wait for to figure it out."

Once Conway Sawyer said this.

Jonah Wright's world collapsed.

The whole person faltered for a mont, almost sitting down on the ground.

The so-called banners, needless to say, were arranged overnight by Dirk Carter, and those leaders paying respects were giving face to Dirk Carter.

Moreover, the Municipal Governnt has already signed off on recognizing Donal Lewis's death as in-service sacrifice.

Dirk Carter did this for two reasons: to honor Donal Lewis with grandeur, and second, to retaliate against those who wouldn't let Donal Lewis go even in death.

"Dirk Carter, Dirk Carter, please speak to the leaders on my behalf, it was my fault, it's my fault, I'll... I'll visit Secretary Lawson's grave daily, let the leaders spare this ti, please?"

At this mont, Jonah Wright already realized sothing.

The setup was, beyond expectation, arranged by Dirk Carter.

Only the person who made the arrangent could resolve it.

Jonah Wright clutched Dirk Carter in a plea.
