A Bumpy Road to Power
Chapter 1166 - 1166:
The disciplinary committee has withdrawn, and Dirk Carter is missing. Doesn't that mean that the remaining matters are entirely up to me to handle?
In the interrogation room, there's still a "Living King Of Hell" detained. What should be done with Noelle Meyer?
Release or not release?
Thinking of this.
He immediately took out his phone and dialed Heath Woods' number.
The call went through, but no one answered.
He repeatedly dialed several more times, but the result was the same.
Unfortunately, he didn't have Dirk Carter's phone number, so he couldn't directly reach the disciplinary committee secretary.
Realizing the seriousness of the problem, he suddenly didn't know what to do.
"Director Rhodes, Director Rhodes..."
Suddenly.
Judd Lewis, the captain of the criminal police team, came running over, panting heavily.
"What's happened now?"
Ryan Rhodes asked.
Judd Lewis pointed behind him with his finger and said, "That... President Meyer... President Meyer is asking when the interrogation will start. If it doesn't start soon, she's going to leave..."
"Director Rhodes, Director Rhodes..."
Just as Judd Lewis finished speaking.
A shout came from behind from the office director.
He was just about to start swearing.
The office director said, "Director Rhodes, phone... Secretary Thorne from the city committee called..."
Instantly.
The hairs on his body stood upright.
Cold sweat suddenly broke out on his back.
He dare not ignore a call from Hadley Thorne.
He immediately ran back to the office.
Just picked up the receiver.
The sound of curses rang out: "Ryan Rhodes, you bastard, what are you up to? Release Noelle Meyer, President Meyer, immediately. Is the Mountridge County Police Department rebelling? Believe it or not, I'll remove you right now..."
"Secretary Thorne, President Meyer was brought back; it has nothing to do with our police department; it was Dirk..."
He still wanted to shift all the responsibility onto Dirk Carter.
But Hadley Thorne did not want to listen to his arguments at all.
Interrupted him and shouted: "I'll say it again, release President Meyer immediately, my final warning, if you make me call again, you can take off your police uniform!"
A click was heard.
The phone was directly hung up.
The dial tone beeped over.
Ryan Rhodes froze on the spot.
Paused for half a day.
Lamented: "What the hell is this mess?"
"Director Rhodes, should we release her?"
Judd Lewis asked from behind.
Ryan Rhodes suddenly turned his head and angrily said: "Release, of course, release, what else? Are you undressing or am I? Hurry up and release her."
Judd Lewis was also full of grievances.
It was Ryan Rhodes who ordered the arrest.
But before the interrogation even started, the person had to be released; wasn't this just making trouble?
Yet what could he say? The director's orders must be followed.
At the entrance of the police department.
Noelle Meyer walked out with a blank expression, taking elegant steps.
Ryan Rhodes could only follow behind with a contrived smile.
At the entrance.
Noelle Meyer suddenly stopped, turned to Ryan Rhodes, and said: "Director..."
"Yes, yes, President Meyer, is there anything you need?"
"Director Rhodes, you indeed have a great interest, teasing me on such a beautiful day, correct?"
Once again, Noelle Meyer's words made Ryan Rhodes' heart leap to his throat. He naturally knew the energy of this beautiful woman in front of him, so such a remark was undoubtedly a subtle warning.
"Oh, President Meyer, this matter has been quite mismanaged, the disciplinary committee inexplicably withdrew, and I am also at a loss, please bear with us, please bear with us..."
Ryan Rhodes said apologetically.
Noelle Meyer glanced at the entrance.
Then slowly said: "Director Rhodes, do you know why the disciplinary committee withdrew?"
"Huh?"
Ryan Rhodes was taken aback.
Noelle Meyer continued: "That Dirk Carter, he's quite witty, he knows I'm witty too, so he sneakily slipped away, telling me this matter of my arrest is unrelated to their committee. Every injustice has its head, every debt has its owner, I should find the right person. Director Rhodes, don't you agree?"
Like pins and needles in his back, like a fishbone in his throat.
The expression on Ryan Rhodes' face immediately became stiff.
He wanted to explain.
But he couldn't organize reasonable language.
Noelle Meyer seemed uninterested in chatting with him anymore.
Stepping down the stairs in high heels, click-clack, and then got in the Mercedes parked at the entrance.
The driver was a young woman.
Looked quite pretty, dressed sharply.
In the rearview mirror, she saw Noelle Meyer lean back on the back seat.
Asked: "President Meyer, are you alright?"
Noelle Meyer then sat upright.
Asked: "When did the committee people leave?"
"Fifteen minutes before you came out."
After saying this.
She added: "That secretary called Dirk Carter left first, he even asked us for directions to Five Peaks Mountain, and then I told him."
"Five Peaks Mountain?"
Noelle Meyer shivered a bit.
A smile suddenly appeared on her expressionless face.
She patted the driver's shoulder.
And said: "Let's go, drive, to Five Peaks Mountain."
In the secret manor at the foot of Five Peaks Mountain.
Adonis Forrest as usual.
Was sitting on the island in the middle of the lake fishing.
The sun shone brightly today.
Most importantly, the cold front from the south that hit yesterday dispelled the heat, making today's weather quite pleasant.
At this moment.
Selene Linden hurriedly came running from the villa, leaned next to Adonis Forrest's ear, and whispered something.
With a calm face, he suddenly frowned and turned to ask: "Oh? Dirk Carter disappeared, and the disciplinary committee withdrew?"
Selene Linden nodded.
Said: "Hadley Thorne directly called Ryan Rhodes, due to pressure, Ryan had to release the person."
Adonis Forrest pondered for a moment.
Chuckled coldly: "I really underestimated Dirk Carter, thought he would surely fall into the trap, didn't expect him to be someone who doesn't follow the usual rules."
"Boss, might we've already alerted the enemy, Dirk must have caught on to someone's scheme, otherwise, with his temperament, how could he suddenly withdraw?"
Selene Linden's words made sense.
Adonis Forrest nodded.
Heaved a long sigh.
Said: "Once the arrow is shot, it can't be retrieved, if gentle means don't work, then use hard ones, since this trick isn't effective, we can only switch to a different one, notify our people, the next phase of the plan can begin."
Selene Linden was startled.
Though she hesitated.
She still complied.
After she left.
Adonis Forrest's expression also became serious.
Stared into the lake for a long time.
Muttered: "Brother, brother, don't blame me for not following the rules, if I don't swallow your Seaview Group, I won't pass this hurdle..."
Perspective shifts to Five Peaks Mountain.
Half an hour later.
Noelle Meyer's convoy arrived at the parking lot of Five Peaks Mountain.
Due to it not being the peak tourist season, there weren't many visitors.
Once the car stopped.
Noelle Meyer's female driver got off first, went to the trunk and fetched a bag.
After returning to the car, all the window glasses instantly fogged up.
Couldn't see what was happening inside from the outside.
About ten minutes later.
Noelle Meyer got out of the car.
But she had changed her outfit.
