Although that is the truth.

But for Alfie Grant to say it like this, it was still a heavy blow to Zoey Moss.

Now, she probably needs some comfort.

Dirk Carter held her tightly, and indeed, Zoey Moss, lying in his arms, no longer cried.

"Even so, the issue needs to be resolved. Now is the critical time for your competition with Shane Vincent for the position of Deputy County Mayor. You can't let this matter affect you."

Kian Holden's voice sounded somewhat earnest.

Alfie Grant thought for a moment and asked, "How about this, you find someone, and I arrange a time and place to have her raped, and by then she'll be pregnant."

Finding someone to rape his own wife.

Dirk Carter was so shocked when he heard this that his jaw almost dropped.

Zoey was also startled.

If Dirk hadn't held her tightly, she might have rushed into the next room stark naked.

Seeing her so agitated.

Dirk couldn't loosen his grip.

Afraid she might accidentally cry out.

No choice.

Dirk gritted his teeth and directly silenced Zoey with a kiss.

Zoey's frenzied body finally calmed down the moment Dirk kissed her.

"That won't work. If she reports it to the police, you'll lose face."

Kian Holden advised.

Alfie Grant sneered and said, "I've arranged jobs for her entire family. Whatever I tell her to do, she'll do. Besides, after being raped, she'll surely feel guilty toward me. And for such a humiliating matter, if I tell her not to report it, she'll definitely listen to me."

Hearing Alfie Grant's confidence.

Kian Holden was also moved.

He paused for a moment and said, "Alright, I'll go arrange it."

The two then talked about other matters.

For about ten minutes or so.

After the conversation, they left one after another.

It really was a long kiss.

It lasted for about ten minutes.

Dirk Carter felt his lips go numb.

After ensuring it was safe.

He finally released Zoey.

Afraid she might do something rash, he quickly said, "Sister-in-law, Alfie Grant is the head of the Organization Department, and Kian Holden is so wealthy. If you expose this matter in front of them, it won't benefit you. Not only will it affect you, but your family as well."

"That bastard! So I'm just supposed to let it go? Let him find someone to rape me?"

Zoey said emotionally.

Dirk thought for a moment.

And said, "Alright, whenever you feel anything unusual, call me. No matter how busy I am, I'll be there for you. Rest assured, I'll make sure nothing happens to you. In return, I'll help you gain leverage over Alfie Grant, so he won't dare touch you."

"You're really willing to help me?"

Like seeing a beacon in the darkness.

Zoey grasped Dirk's hand excitedly.

Dirk nodded.

He said, "Sister-in-law, I'm not a good person, but I do keep my word."

"Don't call me sister-in-law, just call me sister. You help me, and I'll help you. My diner isn't usually open to the public. It's used by old Alfie... Alfie Grant to entertain leaders or close associates. It's his intelligence and networking hub. I'll capture their dirty dealings and give them to you. With that leverage, you can make them do whatever you want."

Zoey's proposal brought a smile to Dirk's face.

The notebook left by Dylan Tate recorded the unscrupulous behavior of many people.

But it was blank regarding Alfie Grant.

After all, Alfie Grant hadn't been in office long enough for Dylan to uncover his secrets.

If Zoey could really do it.

Then Alfie Grant not only wouldn't be a threat to him.

But could also be used to balance Shane Vincent.

This way, even if Shane Vincent digs a pit for him at the Work Safety Administration, he wouldn't be afraid.

"Sis, if Alfie Grant intends to find someone to rape you, he'll definitely stay out of it. It won't happen in the diner or at home. So, it'll be while you're out. If he suddenly inquires about your plans, be vigilant and call me immediately."

"Alright, if he shows no mercy, I won't hold back either."

Zoey said through gritted teeth, her eyes deepened.

With this affair surfacing.

The ambiguous atmosphere instantly dissipated.

Zoey personally drove Dirk to the entrance of the community.

Just as Dirk was about to get out of the car.

Zoey suddenly grabbed his hand.

"Sis, is there something else?"

Zoey shyly said, "Dirk, um... could you kiss me again?"

"Sis? That wasn't your first kiss, was it?"

Dirk asked.

Zoey bit her lip.

Nodded slightly and said, "I don't know why, but that feeling was wonderful, so I want to..."

Before she finished speaking.

Dirk leaned in and kissed her.

Last time, it was just skin contact for ten minutes.

This time.

Dirk extended his tongue...

Naive in matters of intimacy, Zoey couldn't withstand such stimulation.

In a few moments, she was lost in the moment and began to imitate.

It was another long kiss.

It lasted for about five minutes.

They reluctantly parted.

Before leaving, Zoey slipped a piece of paper into Dirk's hand.

Dirk opened it to find an address in Ardmore City.

"Is this..."

Zoey licked her lips as if savoring the moment.

Said, "Before coming to Stillwater County, Alfie Grant served as Deputy Director at the Ardmore Building Department for six years. During this time, the Grandlake Group gradually expanded. To show gratitude, Kian Holden sent a lot of money to him over the years, which is hidden in this house."

"Do you want the money?"

Dirk asked.

Zoey shook her head.

Said, "I don't want that dirty money. I just thought it might be useful to you."

Money!

Dirk didn't lack it!

When Dylan Tate died, there were two things in the briefcase.

One was the notebook.

The other was a key to a bank safety deposit box.

Holding three million inside.

But since it's ill-gotten money, it might come in handy someday.

Dirk accepted it anyway.

That night brought a big shock to Dirk.

He accidentally discovered a shocking secret of Alfie Grant's.

At that moment, he couldn't judge whether it was good or bad.

Early the next morning.

Dirk got up early and tidied up.

Just as he was leaving the bedroom, he heard Catherine Sawyer muttering at the door.

"What are you talking about?"

Dirk asked.

Catherine, holding a freshly bought breakfast in one hand and a key in the other, said, "I don't know who hung this key on our door."

"Let me see."

Dirk took the key and glanced at it.

Found it was a key to a Honda Forza 350 scooter.

Scooter?

Dirk suddenly thought of something.

Rushed out the door.

Sure enough.

There was a brand new scooter parked downstairs.
