Chapter 682: Chapter 683: Still Somewhat Humane (2)

"Miss Gaia, I’m sorry, last night I... ran into an... old acquaintance and accidentally had a few too many drinks, so I came back a bit late..."

"It’s okay," Gan Yuan lifted her face and returned a smile, "I had someone prepare a breakfast for you on the table."

She certainly understood that Jessica was detained by Will last night; her eyes swept over the kiss mark on Jessica’s neck, and she couldn’t help but smirk.

It seemed Will’s method of holding her back was quite special!

After washing her face in the restroom, Jessica walked to the table and, seeing the breakfast there, couldn’t help but think of Will, whom she had tied up in the car.

They hadn’t eaten anything while drinking last night, and now she was extremely hungry. She reached for the breakfast on the plate, and Jessica laughed lightly once again.

Being this hungry, that Colonel probably wasn’t faring any better.

Poor man, hungry and tired, and still tied up in the car, unable to leave even if he wanted to...

Hearing her laughter, Gan Yuan lifted her face again.

"Looks like you had a pleasant evening last night?"

Jessica curled her lip, "It had nothing to do with being pleasant."

"Then why are you laughing so happily?"

"I just..." Jessica shrugged her shoulders, "thought of something amusing, that’s all."

No sooner had she finished speaking than the door was knocked, and Moses came in with Paul, and upon seeing him, Jessica immediately stood up nervously.

"Sir!"

Moses nodded slightly and walked over to Gan Yuan’s desk.

"I’ll take you to the meeting."

Having agreed with Dolly beforehand, a party meeting was to be held today to decide on the delegate for the presidential election, at which Dolly could take the opportunity to promote Gan Yuan.

Gan Yuan quickly got ready, and the group left the office together. As they rode to the Freedom Party Headquarters, Gan Yuan lifted her hand to her forehead, lost in thought.

From the information obtained from Huangfu Jue, she knew today’s meeting was unlikely to be easy or simple. Marquis Smith would definitely stir trouble, seizing the chance to propose Annie’s participation in the election.

Both Dolly and Smith were old hands within the party. Could she really emerge victorious?

"What are you thinking about?" Noticing her expression, Moses asked with concern.

"I feel that Marquis Smith will definitely not agree to me representing the Liberal Party," she said.

Moses nodded lightly, "That’s certain, but you don’t need to worry too much. We still have a considerable number of supporters, and he doesn’t really have a suitable candidate."

"Don’t forget, he has a daughter!"

Moses narrowed his eyes.

Indeed, Smith was getting old, and for such an important matter, he wouldn’t leave the opportunity to anyone else. Annie’s frequent activities were also his arrangement, and Gan Yuan’s concern wasn’t improbable. If he wanted to win this chance in the upcoming meeting, he had to be fully prepared and ready for any eventuality.

After arriving at the location, Moses immediately questioned Dolly about Gan Yuan’s thoughts from earlier, and the group quickly came up with several strategies to deal with Smith.

Time passed quickly, and after more than half an hour, the meeting officially began.

Gan Yuan entered the conference room with Dolly, and as expected, saw Annie and her father present; Annie even feigned a smile at her.

Humph!

A pair of scheming individuals aiming to catch her off guard.

Gan Yuan huffed coldly in her mind, pity though, she was already prepared.
