The entire matter dates back to half a month ago.
That day, Chairman of the People's Congress Darien Griffin went to Northgate Town for an investigation.
After the investigation ended.
He entered Iris Baldwin's office, hinting to her that recently the candidate for Party Secretary of Northgate Town had already been under discussion, and suggested that Iris Baldwin perform well, as she had a good chance of rising to the top position.
"At that ti, I was also possessed; I knew full well that Darien Griffin said this with a purpose, but that day in the office, when he made advances on , I didn't resist. Later, soone ca to find , which prevented him from succeeding."
Upon saying this.
Iris Baldwin sighed.
Two days later.
Darien Griffin called Iris Baldwin.
He asked her to join him for tea.
Iris Baldwin knew that the so-called tea was just an excuse, and that his real intention was to sleep with her.
In her words.
A little flirtation, she could accept.
But to be pinned down by a man like Darien Griffin, she could not accept.
Although she agreed to et.
After maneuvering, Iris Baldwin managed to escape unhard.
She knew that Darien Griffin would not give up easily.
Sure enough, after a couple of days.
Iris Baldwin received another call from Darien Griffin, this ti she recorded the call.
Darien Griffin, after all, was a leader.
Iris Baldwin had no choice but to comply.
Ultimately, she agreed to et him.
But unexpectedly, this so-called tea eting turned into a nightmare for her.
Still in the sa teahouse as their previous eting.
After drinking two cups of tea handed to her by Darien Griffin, Iris Baldwin began to feel dizzy, and her vision beca blurred.
She imdiately realized sothing was amiss.
She wanted to leave at once.
However, just as she stood up, everything went black as she passed out.
When she awoke again, she was lying naked on a bed, and the stabbing pain from below made her acutely aware she had been violated.
Getting up from the bed.
She saw Darien Griffin and Franklin Ross sitting on the sofa smoking.
Both were draped only in towels.
It was clear.
Last night, she had been assaulted by both n simultaneously.
"Franklin Ross? Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection Secretary Franklin Ross?"
Dirk Carter froze for a mont and asked.
Iris Baldwin nodded and said, "That's him. At the ti, I went crazy and made harsh threats to report them, but Darien Griffin and Franklin Ross didn't care at all, saying that if I dared to report them, they would ruin ."
Frustrated, she left.
Iris Baldwin did indeed go to the Municipal Commission for Discipline Inspection to report her rape.
She also submitted the recording of her conversation with Darien Griffin.
"What did the Municipal Commission say?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Iris Baldwin's eyes darkened.
She said, "At the ti, the Municipal Commission told to go back and wait for the result, but instead of a result, I was taken away by people from the Commission. I was locked up in their safe house for a week, pressured to hand over the original recording. No matter how they tortured , I didn't give it up."
Tonight.
Soone suddenly released her from the Commission's safe house.
And told her to find Dirk Carter sohow.
This person could save her.
"So, those who took you were people from the Commission?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Iris Baldwin shook her head and said, "Not people from the Commission, they're K's n."
K?
Dirk Carter did rember that Bald Head ntioned K.
But he didn't know who K was.
"Who is this K?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Iris Baldwin let out a long sigh and said, "He is the chairman of The Zenith Group, the backer of Jabez Shaw, Darien Griffin, and others. Locals call him 'The Photosynthesis King.'
The Photosynthesis King? The king of Helios County?
What an imposing na.
The Zenith Group, before coming here, Dirk Carter saw an introduction to this company in the records.
The Zenith Group is the largest company in Helios County, even the largest and most famous company in all of Veridia City.
The Zenith Group was originally a state-owned distillery.
In the nineties.
A man nad Brett Sumrs appeared.
This man took over the nearly bankrupt Zenith Distillery at an extrely low price.
In the sa year.
The Zenith Distillery's advertisent directly appeared on CCTV's Evening News.
Becoming the first distillery nationwide to broadcast liquor comrcials during pri ti.
Sky Do Wine beca a boom, one of the most sought-after liquor brands.
In the next ten to twenty years.
Sky Do Wine continued to expand.
Today, it is the second largest liquor brand next to Maotai, with financial attributes, hoarding, and market scarcity.
Since The Zenith Group went public.
Its market value remained high.
This is the origin of the liquor market's "One Maotai, Two Zenith."
And this Brett Sumrs is the "K" in Iris Baldwin's words.
Dirk Carter did not expect that even leaders like Jabez Shaw and Darien Griffin had risen because of Brett Sumrs.
The matter beca complicated.
If it were only Darien Griffin.
Dealing with the matter wouldn't be difficult.
But now, not only is Jabez Shaw involved, but The Zenith Group is also part of it.
Dirk Carter wants to seek justice for Iris Baldwin, which is not a simple task.
After pondering for a while.
He asked, "Comrade Iris Baldwin, you've been in the officialdom of Helios County for a while, while I am new here, what do you think I should do next?"
A hint of panic flashed across Iris Baldwin's face.
After a pause, she said, "Secretary General Carter, you're the County Committee Secretary; you are the top leader in Helios County, it's up to you to decide what to do."
Dirk Carter sighed deeply.
He said, "Based on what you just said, the real master of Helios County should be Brett Sumrs. The likes of are probably beneath Brett Sumrs' notice."
After saying this.
Dirk Carter got off the bed.
He said, "I'm sorry, Comrade Iris Baldwin, my abilities are limited, and I can't help you find justice. Since you escaped from the Commission, I suggest you go back and surrender; you must trust that the Party and governnt are just."
"You..."
At that mont.
Iris Baldwin wanted to say sothing but stopped.
She seed to want to speak, but choked back her words.
"Secretary General Carter, if you can help , I'll do anything for you. I can sleep with you, serve you, whatever you want, just don't abandon , I never want to return to that place."
After a mont of hesitation.
Her expression turned mournful again.
Naked, she kneeled on the bed, looking pitiful.
Dirk Carter couldn't deny that Iris Baldwin's body was quite alluring.
But he still resolutely sighed and turned to leave...
After a phone call.
After a short while.
Arlo Yarbrough drove to the hotel.
As Dirk Carter was leaving, he glanced up, and it seed that the room he just left had a pair of eyes watching him...
