“What's the progress with the investigation on the queen?”
Dylan was currently planning to recoup his power as quickly as possible, change the law and acknowledging his relationship with Arielle. He wanted to be able to treat her well in public and make up for everything she lacked.
“I also found out that a nephew of hers took a bribe of a million,” Sybil answered.
The moment Dylan heard that, his brows furrowed. Their family's businesses are making tons of money, so why are they still taking bribes? Don't tell me the money isn't enough for them?
“What were they requested to do?” he questioned tersely.
Consequently, Sybil related the results of the investigation to him. Evidently, a contractor cut corners while constructing a house. His superiors were conducting an inspection, and he was afraid that the matter would come to light, so he asked the queen's nephew to utilize some connections so that he could pass without any issues.
Dylan was furious after hearing that. If the house isn't up to standard, it's no joke if something happens one day!
“Collect evidence of him taking bribes. Then, investigate the other forces that are working for the queen.
I want everything in detail.”
He wanted to seize that opportunity to disintegrate the queen's power and snatch it away from her cronies.
Having received his orders, Sybil was fired up and acknowledged them fervently with his head held high. His Majesty should have done this from the very beginning!
When the man had left, Dylan took out a book from his drawer as he sat at his desk alone. He flipped it open, baring a picture to his sight. With trembling hands, he touched the girl in the picture, tears shimmering in his eyes.
“Maureen, I'll be reconciling with our daughter soon.”
Twenty to thirty people were crammed into the constricted space of the ship. They were all illegal immigrants, some coming over to find a job and make money while others entered other countries illegally before returning. In short, there were all sorts of people and a myriad of smells.
