Chapter 1036 – The Right-hand Man’s Wake Up Call
*****For a split second, the OSD genuinely didn’t know whether to laugh hysterically or break down and scream, the absurdity of what was currently going on lodging itself in her chest like a splinter.“So this is how it is now?” she sneered, her lips curling as her rage boiled dangerously close to the surface. “We are all going to push the blame on me now, are we?” Her laugh came sharp and humorless. “Amazing! This is truly inspiring teamwork!!”Her voice rose, brimming with the emotions she had not even the slightest intention of hiding.“When I suggested that the Prime Minister might have been controlled by… unconventional means, why didn’t a single one of you refute it?” Her finger jabbed the air with every word. “Not one. When I said I knew someone who might understand what was happening and have a solution for it, why did you all follow me like obedient little ducks?”Her breathing grew uneven, fury rolling off her in waves. “Why didn’t you reject my idea then?” she demande
Chapter 1035 – The Blaming Game
*****Of course, the Prime Minister knew exactly why he had completely forgotten about the wealthy man, and the reason.And the reason was as simple as simplicity could get.No matter how influential and powerful the man was, and no matter how world-shaking his Project would have been for Riverton… none of it amounted to even one percent of the importance of attending to Xavier.That was the cold, undeniable truth.In fact, if fate rewound itself and the same situation were to happen again… the Prime Minister would still undo exactly what he had done without hesitation, doubt, or even the faintest trace of regret.However…That didn’t mean responsibility could be abandoned.No matter what, power came with consequences, and even choices made without remorse still required correction.So…Once the storm in the old man’s chest settled and his breathing returned to normal, the Prime Minister lifted his gaze and calmly asked, “Where is he now?”The sudden calmness in his voice m
Chapter 1034 – The Prime Minister’s Relief
*****Of course, the Prime Minister noticed every tremor, every bead of sweat, and every shallow, panicked breath of the five aides.But he doesn’t feel satisfied… not even the slightest bit.And why would he be?He five hadn’t merely intentionally misunderstood a situation; they had even accused the Erudite Grandmaster of being a Black Voodoo user, controlling him with black voodoo.Dang it.They had even mobilized armed men… trained killers to come deal with him, and probably even execute him.The mere thought made the Prime Minister feel a chill race down his spine, his heart skipping violently in his chest, especially knowing well that this particular conversation wouldn’t even be happening if they had actually met Xavier.Even if he personally wouldn’t allow a single weapon to be raised, what about the sheer insult, humiliation, and casual disregard?The Prime Minister’s soul nearly leapt out of his body in terror.For the first time since Xavier left, he felt genuine,
Chapter 1033 – The Aides’ Terror
*****The Prime Minister’s words sounded so earnest that, to anyone lacking sense, it would have sounded genuine.But anyone with even the slightest shred of intelligence could instantly hear the venom, scathing sarcasm, and fury buried beneath every word.And the five aides… having clawed their way to the heights of power they currently hold, were not fools.They immediately saw through it, and in the very next second…They froze.It wasn’t like before, where they were just flabbergasted... no.This time… it was realization.The Prime Minister’s sarcastic words slammed into them like a hammer, smashing through the last remnants of denial in them.And in that instant, something colossal detonated inside their minds.‘Yes, how was that person even able to get the Prime Minister’s emergency number… one known only to a microscopic circle if he was not someone he already knows?’The thought struck the five aides like a sledgehammer to the skull.‘Moreover, given the Prime Mini
Chapter 1032 – “He’s Not The Erudite Grandmaster”
*****At this moment, the five aides weren’t merely shocked… they were completely thunderstruck and frozen stiff, appearing as though lightning itself had shot out of the sky and struck them where they stood, their minds lagging several beats behind reality.In fact, for a brief second, none of them could even remember how to breathe.If anything, the reason they had been so utterly convinced that Xavier had used some unethical, underhanded method to control the Prime Minister began to replay itself in their minds… one detail at a time.First, it was due to Xavier’s appearance… far too young to deserve the Grandmaster identity the Prime Minister had initially used for him.He barely looked over twenty-five, with an air that screamed young master rather than transcendent existence… someone you would expect to see stepping out of a luxury car.As for the second… it was the Prime Minister himself.He was renowned across the state for his unshakable composure… a leader who could fa
Chapter 1031 – The Truth
*****When the SSF captain finally finished reporting everything, a thick, heavy, and suffocating silence returned, enveloping everyone.As for the Prime Minister, he didn’t move, didn’t speak, and didn’t blink.Instead, he just stood there, staring ahead, his eyes unfocused, as the captain’s report replayed in his mind again… and again… and again.It felt so unreal and so absurd that it almost crossed the line into comedy… except no one was laughing.He didn’t know how long he stood there before reality finally caught up.Then slowly and deliberately, he released a long breath before waving a hand.In the following second, the SSF captain snapped to attention and stepped back, and only then did the Prime Minister gaze back at the aides.“Is all of the report true?” he askedUnlike before, his voice was calm… too calm, in fact.There was no anger, no disbelief, and no sarcasm. Just composed and chilling neutrality.But the instant the aides heard that tone, their bodies rea
