Chapter 771: Chapter 771: Utterly Humiliated (1)

In the early morning, the sun rose as usual, the world remained as it was yesterday, showing no change because of any person or event.

Marquis Smith’s first act after getting out of bed was to grab the newspaper and look at the day’s news. He had always been interested in current affairs, but today he was searching for a specific piece of news.

Unfortunately, from the headlines to the regular news, from the current affairs section to the news section, and even flipping to the entertainment section—after scanning through the entire newspaper, he found no trace of the news he was looking for.

Marquis Smith had initially prepared to enjoy his breakfast while reading the news, but now he had no appetite for breakfast whatsoever. He threw down the newspaper, stood up, and grabbed the telephone on the desk, dialing his daughter’s cell phone.

"What’s going on?"

As soon as he heard Annie’s voice on the other end, he immediately questioned her with displeasure.

Hadn’t she sworn that she would handle everything, that once the sun was up, the scandal would spread across the entire world?

"Dad, don’t worry, everything will proceed according to our plan," she assured him.

Calmed by his daughter’s confident response, Mr. Marquis’s tone softened, "But I have seen no news at all!"

On the other end of the phone, Annie inhaled sharply, narrowly dodging Helen’s blade.

"I... made some adjustments to the plan. Rest assured, the outcome will be even better than we anticipated," she said.

Mr. Marquis inhaled softly, "After you finish breakfast, come see me immediately."

Making last-minute changes to the plan without consulting him, Mr. Marquis was somewhat dissatisfied with his daughter’s act-first-report-later approach.

"I’ve got some things to take care of and I’m not at the hotel right now. Let’s meet at the venue," Annie proposed.

Of course, the Marquis had no reason to distrust his own daughter, "Alright, we’ll meet at the venue. Remember, don’t be late!"

"At the venue."

As soon as Annie finished speaking, Helen immediately hung up the phone and, with a smile, gently tapped Annie’s cheek with the tip of her knife, "Hmm, not bad!"

Annie didn’t dare to make a sound, merely shrinking back timidly. Observing her fear, Helen shook her head in disdain.

With such little courage, she aspires to accomplish great things?

...

...

B City Stadium.

Today is a significant day for the Liberal Party’s internal primary election. Before eight o’clock, the stadium and its surroundings had already gathered tens of thousands of people.

Members of the Liberal Party attending the election, journalists reporting the event, and citizens from B City or from abroad who had come to witness the spectacle...

Some were clearly supporters of Gan Yuan, holding up large posters and chanting her name.

As core figures of the Liberal Party started to appear, journalists immediately approached them, asking for their opinions on the election.

The Mayor of B City had received orders from the President first thing in the morning and had arrived at the stadium early to personally oversee the security work.

This time, to ensure the safety of the venue, not only was the area under martial law, but a large number of special police forces had also been called in to work with the stadium’s security staff to complete the security operations.

Everyone, from the Mayor himself to each security guard and police officer, dared not slack off.

All those attending or observing the election had to go through multiple checks, pass through both machine security screening and a security guard’s inspection before they were allowed entry.

These were important figures in the Liberal Party, occupying pivotal positions in F Country. Not to mention others, just Gan Yuan alone was no small matter—her status as the fiancee of the future King of A Country was intimidating enough.
