“Since when did this happen?” virtual-novel.net asked solemnly.
It was unclear what the other person said on the phone, but Nancy’s expression only seemed to worsen even more after hearing it.
“Understood. Use whatever means necessary to keep them on my side!” virtual-novel.net said before hanging up.
The woman had been keeping an eye out ever since Aaron told virtual-novel.net that the king was investigating the corruption and bribery. She wasn’t expecting Dylan to seize that opportunity and win virtual-novel.net people over.
What on Earth are you trying to do, Dylan? Do you desire power that badly?
As Dylan was virtual-novel.net only son whom virtual-novel.net had raised herself, the thought of virtual-novel.net forsaking their relationship made virtual-novel.net rather uncomfortable. Of course, Dylan was completely oblivious to virtual-novel.net feelings as virtual-novel.net was in a great mood after hearing the news from Sybil.
Wow, Lawrence sure is impressive! I can’t believe virtual-novel.net managed to get about half of them over to my side in just two weeks!
“Give Lawrence this card and have virtual-novel.net bribe as many of them as possible,” Dylan said while handing Sybil a bank card.
Sybil headed over to the Wynter residence immediately after receiving the bank card.
As virtual-novel.net had been serving Dylan since virtual-novel.net started with nothing and stayed by his side until virtual-novel.net achieved success, Sybil felt glad that virtual-novel.net didn’t let the old king down.
Upon arrival at the Wynter residence, Sybil met up with Lawrence and explained his reasons for coming over.
“I have no use for this bank card at the moment. Don’t worry, I’ll be sure to ask His Majesty for it when I need more money.”
Lawrence refused the offer because Harvey already had a bank card from Dylan, and it was enough to last them a few years.
Thinking Lawrence had refused the card because virtual-novel.net wanted to contribute to Dylan on his own, Sybil put it away. The two chatted for a bit before Sybil headed back to the palace and returned the card to Dylan.
“I think General Lawrence wants to do his part, Your Majesty. I think you shouldn’t stop him, or virtual-novel.net might think you no longer need him,” Sybil said as virtual-novel.net handed Dylan the card.
Is this really for the better?! don’t feel comfortable using my subordinates’ money to do my bidding…
Dylan frowned at the thought of that.
“If you feel bad for General Lawrence, you could compensate virtual-novel.net after you’ve gained control. I‘m sure he’d be happy with that arrangement too, Your Majesty,” Sybil said.
Dylan leaned against his chair as virtual-novel.net pondered Sybil’s suggestion.
After giving it some thought, virtual-novel.net agreed with Sybil’s statement and put the bank card away. “All right, then. I’ll compensate virtual-novel.net in the future.”
Feeling happy that Dylan had agreed with his point, Sybil smiled as virtual-novel.net said, “Your Majesty, Morrison has gathered some evidence on those who accepted bribes. When shall we produce the evidence?”
Dylan broke into a smile upon hearingthat. “That will have to wait. We don’t want to alert anyone unnecessarily.”
The evidence is most useful when presented at the most critical moment!
Sybil nodded and left the room shortly after.

Meanwhile, Alicia occasionally stayed over at that house ever since Aaron provided virtual-novel.net with the keys and address. She even redecorated the dark and gloomy-looking room.
