A Bumpy Road to Power
Chapter 1168 - 1168
This was something Dirk Carter did not expect.
Clearly, he underestimated Noelle Meyer.
After a moment's thought, he said, "Alright, since you've seen through it, there's no need to hide it anymore. Two choices: either you surrender yourself, or I apprehend you. In my view, any power-money transactions are impossible, no matter who the person is."
"Secretary General Carter is indeed quite a special individual."
Noelle Meyer sighed deeply and said.
"What do you mean by that?"
"Power-money transactions? Do you know how many people's interests you'll disturb if you arrest me? Do you know that if you arrest me, you won't be able to leave Silverwood City and you'll be torn apart piece by piece until there's nothing left? Do you think I, Noelle Meyer, am like Astrid Giles or Alexis Lewis, those insignificant roles? Want to move against me? You're not qualified!"
Noelle Meyer returned to her previous cold state.
This statement was both a warning and a threat.
"Well, we can try and see if I, Dirk Carter, can personally apprehend you."
After saying this.
Dirk Carter stood up.
"Secretary General Carter, you think you can come and go as you please, do you think I, Noelle Meyer, am so easy to bully?"
Noelle Meyer sat still.
But her gaze towards Dirk Carter was both indifferent and disdainful.
Faintly, there seemed to be a hint of murderous intention.
"Otherwise? Does Ms. Meyer have any better suggestions?"
Dirk Carter asked.
Noelle Meyer tapped her nails rhythmically on the stone table.
Just about to say something.
Suddenly.
Faye Ullman asked towards the direction of the foot of the mountain, "Kael Quill, who told you to come up? Didn't the boss say to wait in the car?"
This sudden change interrupted the confrontation between Dirk Carter and Noelle Meyer.
Both looked towards the direction Faye Ullman was reprimanding.
They saw a young man in black walking slowly towards their position.
Behind him were a dozen people.
These people were all members of Noelle Meyer's convoy.
The one at the front was Kael Quill, whom Faye Ullman was reprimanding.
This person was about 1.8 meters tall and looked very valiant, even wearing a shirt, his thick arms were noticeable.
This group was Noelle Meyer's security team, and Kael Quill was the deputy captain of this team.
Kael Quill did not respond.
His brow was gloomy.
His steps were steady.
His whole body exuded brutality.
In this stance, Dirk Carter immediately said to Noelle Meyer, "Ms. Meyer, it looks like we have a problem."
"Impossible, my people are very loyal."
She had just said these words of rebuttal.
Kael Quill had already arrived in the front.
The dozen people behind him formed a circle in an instant, surrounding Dirk Carter, Noelle Meyer, Faye Ullman, and Crystal.
In this situation, it was meaningless for Noelle Meyer to keep arguing.
"Kael Quill, what are you doing? Where's Zell Ross?"
Noelle Meyer stood up, frowned, and asked.
The Zell Ross she mentioned was the security team's captain.
Kael Quill's face was expressionless, he said, "Captain Ross didn't want to join me, so the brothers and I took him down. But don't worry, Ms. Meyer, Captain Ross is fine; he just needs a good sleep."
This statement left the motivation exposed without a doubt.
"You... were you bribed?"
Noelle Meyer's voice was undeniably anxious.
Kael Quill smiled slightly and said, "Ms. Meyer, you indeed treat the brothers well, but what can we do? The brothers also want to live well, and the price offered by the other side is too high, so the brothers had no choice but to take the money."
"Then what do you want to do?"
Noelle Meyer asked.
Kael Quill pointed to the Tiger's Leap Cliff railing with his hand.
He said, "Ms. Meyer, accidents can always happen while climbing the mountain, right? It's quite possible that you slip and accidentally fall off the cliff, isn't it?"
When Dirk Carter heard this.
His spine also chilled.
He always thought the person lurking in the shadows only intended to bring down Noelle Meyer.
Now it seems, that's not the case at all.
One trick fails, another is born.
And each move is more ruthless than the last.
Given the current situation, they already want Noelle Meyer dead.
"Then how about me? I've heard and seen it all. What are you planning to do?"
Dirk Carter suddenly asked.
This question also attracted Kael Quill's attention.
Kael Quill looked him over and said, "Dirk Carter, Secretary General Carter, right? This situation is all your doing. If you weren't so smart and just took Ms. Meyer in initially, she wouldn't necessarily have died. What's this? This is being too clever for one's own good. If you're sensible, you'll mind your own business, and we have no need to take your life. If you're not, then don't blame the brothers for not being courteous. Anyway, an accident involving one person is about the same as an accident involving two, three, or four people..."
"Ms. Meyer, it seems like the one behind this is pretty ruthless, determined to kill you."
Dirk Carter said mockingly to Noelle Meyer.
Noelle Meyer remained calm.
She smiled.
She said, "Does Secretary General Carter regret not holding me down then?"
"It does look like I regret it a bit."
Dirk Carter sighed and said.
Noelle Meyer was composed.
She said to Kael Quill, "Kael Quill, since it's all said and done, there's no need for me to persuade you anymore. However, you know Faye's capability, so isn't it too few to bring these people here?"
As soon as she said this.
Faye Ullman took a stand, guarding in front of Noelle Meyer.
Kael Quill was not flustered at all.
He said, "Yes, I certainly know Sister Faye's capability. With her protecting you, naturally, we cannot harm you."
After saying this.
He raised his hand to look at his watch.
He said, "The time should be just about right; it should take effect."
While everyone else was wondering what this meant.
Faye Ullman's brow furrowed.
Immediately afterwards, she gritted her teeth and bent over, beads of cold sweat appeared on her forehead.
"Faye, what's wrong?"
Noelle Meyer also noticed the abnormality, she immediately supported her and asked.
Faye Ullman shook her head with difficulty and said, "I don't know, an intense pain in my abdomen..."
After saying this.
She staggered again.
If not for Noelle Meyer supporting her.
She might have already fallen to the ground.
"Did you... did you poison her?"
Noelle Meyer asked in a panicked voice.
Kael Quill asked with a triumphant look, "Ms. Meyer, have you drunk the water in your car? If you did, then you've been poisoned too."
After saying this.
Noelle Meyer immediately became anxious.
The water in her car was usually managed by Faye Ullman, it seems, while Faye was not noticing, Kael Quill had already replaced the water.
She recalled.
On the way to Five Peaks Mountain.
She had sipped some of the mineral water in the car.
Although it wasn't much, she indeed drank it.
Seeing her expression, Kael Quill also understood.
He said, "Ms. Meyer, I do apologize, but to ensure the plan's success, I could only do this. In any case, you must die today; even God can't save you..."
