A Bumpy Road to Power

Chapter 774 774

"County Mayor Shaw, should I send some people over to check the rooms and verify their authenticity?"

Dallon Lewis asked.

Jabez Shaw took off his headset.

Heaved a sigh.

And said, "No need, I can tell this Dirk Carter is indeed a guy with his mind on lust."

"Then shouldn't we rush in now and catch him in the act, wouldn't that finish Dirk Carter off?"

Dallon Lewis said excitedly.

Jabez Shaw shot him a glance.

And said, "Fool, Esau West just went down not long ago, if Dirk Carter is taken down too, wouldn't that make them suspicious upstairs? Why create trouble for ourselves over nothing? This Dirk Carter is young and impulsive, if he becomes our man, wouldn't it be much easier to get things done?"

"Then what do you plan to do?"

Dallon Lewis asked.

A sly smile appeared on Jabez Shaw's face.

He said, "Recruit him into our fold!"

"Will President Summers agree?"

"The people I've vetted, President Summers will trust for sure, but since this matter is no small deal, I should give him a heads-up first."

After saying this.

Jabez Shaw took out his phone.

Once the call connected.

Jabez Shaw's tone became cautious: "President Summers, do you have a moment? There's something I'd like to discuss with you... Oh... Oh oh oh... Okay, I'll be right over..."

After hanging up.

Jabez Shaw let out a sigh.

Turned to his secretary, Liam Zane, and said, "Liam, the situation is pretty much clear now, let's start tonight by removing all surveillance of Dirk Carter, shall we?"

Liam Zane was taken aback.

Asked, "Boss, shouldn't we keep observing a bit longer?"

Jabez Shaw laughed.

And said, "No need, I already know what kind of person Dirk Carter is, we don't want him to notice anything unusual and cause trouble."

"Alright, I'll heed your instructions, but... the matter of Iris Baldwin..."

Liam Zane appeared hesitant to speak.

Jabez Shaw smiled faintly.

And said, "I have a way to make Dirk Carter tell me where Iris Baldwin is, alright, that's it for today..."

After saying this.

Jabez Shaw got up and left.

Around ten-thirty in the evening.

Jabez Shaw's car stopped in front of a dark building.

A young man in a black suit hurried over and opened the car door.

Jabez Shaw placed the car keys in his palm and asked, "Where is President Summers?"

The young man pointed upwards with his finger and said, "Ninth floor."

Jabez Shaw understood.

Entered through the main door and directly took the elevator.

This elevator could not be used directly, it required a fingerprint.

Jabez Shaw pressed his finger on the fingerprint scanner, and the elevator slowly started.

Soon.

The ninth floor arrived.

The elevator door opened.

Revealing a dimly lit corridor.

At that moment.

A young woman in an usher's uniform emerged from the darkness.

Bowingly greeted Jabez Shaw: "Good evening, Mr. Shaw, President Summers sent me to receive you."

Jabez Shaw gestured.

Indicating to proceed.

Led by the usher.

He arrived at a double-door entrance.

The usher pushed open the doors, and misty fog billowed out inside.

"Mr. Shaw, please come in."

The woman said softly.

As soon as Jabez Shaw entered, the door closed behind him.

Before him appeared a giant bathhouse.

In the clear warm water, a middle-aged man was reclining by the poolside, a towel covering his face, seemingly enjoying a nap.

In the pool.

Five women in sexy bikinis were laughing and playing around.

Each had a tempting figure and top-notch looks.

Leather shoes clattered on the ground with each step.

Jabez Shaw cautiously approached the man.

The man didn't move.

A voice came from under the towel, asking, "Is that A-Tuo?"

"Brother Summers, it's me, A-Tuo."

Jabez Shaw said respectfully.

"Take off your clothes, join me for a soak, the water temperature is perfect today."

The man said, still motionless.

"Alright."

Jabez Shaw replied.

In the pool.

Two women stepped out.

One on the left, one on the right.

Swaying their chests and hips.

Water droplets clung to their fair skin, stoking Jabez Shaw's desires.

No need to do anything.

Jabez Shaw extended his arms.

One woman helped remove his clothes, the other took off his pants.

Soon.

Jabez Shaw was stripped bare.

He entered the pool.

Seated beside the man.

At this moment.

The man sat up straight.

Took off the towel over his face, revealing a face full of charisma.

This person was none other than the Photosynthesis King, Chairman of The Zenith Group, Brett Summers.

In reality, controlling Helios County.

Brett Summers, at 54 years old, despite being at an age of knowing destiny, showed no trace of time on his face.

Had a muscular build.

Indicating a fondness for working out.

His skin maintained well.

At a mere glance, you'd think he was only forty.

Standing next to his son, Garrison Summers.

Many would assume they were brothers.

His eyes.

Fell upon the women frolicking ahead.

Asked, "The new County Committee Secretary Dirk Carter's been here for a while now, how's your observation of him?"

Jabez Shaw said, "I'm here to report on him to you."

Finished speaking.

Jabez Shaw leaned close to Brett Summers' ear and whispered a few words.

Brett Summers' eyes widened slightly.

Asked, "Are you certain?"

Jabez Shaw nodded.

Said, "I've observed for quite some time, verified several times, there couldn't be any falsehood."

"So, what's your plan then?"

Brett Summers asked.

A smug smile spread across Jabez Shaw's face, and he said, "Since he likes women, I'll give him women; whether or not Dirk Carter is involved with Iris Baldwin, I'll quickly get results, I plan to..."

Breaking off.

Jabez Shaw again whispered a few words in Brett Summers' ear.

Brett Summers nodded.

And said, "Alright, liaise directly with Louisa, this matter's handled well, counts as a major credit to you."

"Just glad to accomplish tasks for Brother Summers, no need for credit, it's within my duty."

Jabez Shaw said with a smile.

Brett Summers let out a cold snort.

Snapped his fingers.

In the center of the pool.

A woman in a bikini slowly stepped out.

Entered a nearby private room.

When she came back out, she was holding a briefcase.

"Don't forget to take it when you leave."

Brett Summers said, looking at the briefcase.

Jabez Shaw knew full well what was inside this briefcase.

Eyes gleaming.

Nodding repeatedly, he said, "Thank you, Brother Summers."

At that moment.

A woman hurriedly emerged from a side door.

Bowed to Brett Summers, saying, "President Summers, it's time for your treatment..."

Brett Summers stood up.

Just about to bid farewell to Jabez Shaw.

Jabez Shaw, however, appeared reluctant to speak, seemingly having something difficult to say.
