He knew that it was quite fair that Elaine would want a position in his cabinet but he wondered if it was the right decision to make because he had already assigned members of his cabinet and had made it public.He heaved a difficult sigh and then spoke. “Mr. Greyson, I understand your concerns and I think it is fair that Ms. Levron would want a position in my cabinet but those who are going to be part of my team are already ascertained and revealed to the public.”“If there is going to be a change, it is definitely going to draw a lot of controversy.”Alan’s eyebrow furrowed wildly as he spoke. “Yeah, it might draw a few controversies but I am sure that those controversies would be swallowed by the scandal that the mayor would have to face. You know politics very well and I am sure you can always find your way around these kinds of situations.”Felix spoke with a quiet humility, his voice low and subdued as he admitted that Alan was saying the truth. “Well, you are probably right. Th

It was clear that the mayor needed an avenue through which he could release his anger and landing a slap each on the watchmen’s faces was the best way he could achieve that in that moment.The watchmen also made it easy as they didn't hide their faces from the mayor but instead stood alert to receive their punishments.“You all are lucky that I will have to stop for now so that I can attend the governorship debate,” Mayor Carney’s teeth were bare with anger. “We are not done with this. I need to prepare for this debate and that is the only reason why I haven't done worse to you all.”***The air was charged with the electricity of political combat as the audience sat in tense silence.Everyone had been anticipating the governorship debate for quite a while now because it would allow each of the candidates to really show why they were better suited for the elections.The room buzzed with a low murmur of anticipation as their bodies were rigid with nervous energy. Journalists swarmed t

Was Mr. Felix really serious or was he just trying to get back at the mayor for the accusations he received earlier? Was he seriously saying that the Mayor was a murderer?Their disbelief was powerful and overwhelming and even Felix’s supporters in the crowd started to wonder if he was in his right mind.‘That was such a huge statement to make and Felix better have some evidence to back up such an assertion,’ some of his supporters reasoned.Mayor Carney’s expression hardened with a deadly tightening of annoyance. His gaze shifted to the host as he sent her a facial expression as if warning her to tell Felix to restrain from such ridiculous assertions.But even Ms. Oprah Povac waited a few more seconds even when she knew that the debate seemed to be getting out of hand. She was curious as to whether Felix actually knew what he was talking about.It was clear that Mayor Carney was alone in defending himself at that moment so he quickly interrupted Felix.“Mr. Felix, are you aware that

It became clear to the Mayor that it was Elaine who exposed the sound recordings of his conversation with Officer Rostos.Mayor Carney had tried as much as possible to deny the reality before that moment but now that everything was up in the air and a state of destruction, there was no difficulty in tracing the missing link. It was Elaine all along. It had always been Elaine. Mayor Carney gritted his teeth in frustration and a toxic force left him seething with resentment. His well-tailored black suit was already looking so tattered and soaked with sweat. The sharp lines of his jacket were non-existent after he had stretched his arm in a jittery and frustrating manner many times.Mayor Carney’s assistant, Mr. Freeman, the middle-aged man with a full mustache and no beard couldn't help but see his boss being so frustrated. The mayor was hitting tables and punching walls in frustration as all the aides just stood watching him go crazy. None of them knew what words they could say or

“But I assure you that I am heinous of the terrible crimes that I have been accused of.”The crowd murmurs were rising every moment with an insistent force that left the mayor’s words sounding unconvincing.Their mutterings were loud and a discontented whisper filled the atmosphere. Many of them would need more than those empty words to convince them even if they wanted to so desperately believe that the mayor didn't do all that was leveled against him.“What’s this supposed to mean?”“Is he just coming out to outrightly deny everything?”“What does he think we are? Fools? Id!ots? Dump people? Honestly, this is so embarrassing.”“He is really lying openly without any shame.”“He is a murderer. That’s what he is.”“I wonder why he hasn't been arrested yet. The evidence was clear.”“How did he even get to a position where he is allowed to contest for a governorship election? How did he win the primaries election?”“Who knows how many other people he killed? He murdered his way to his p
