"Shameless!"

The woman flew into a rage.

Her long leg kicked directly towards Dirk Carter.

This was no mere flashy display of martial arts.

One look at the woman and it was clear she was a trained fighter; that kick was forceful and swift. A direct hit would surely result in broken bones.

Dirk Carter had skills of his own.

He sidestepped to dodge.

The long leg grazed past his chest and hit empty air.

Dirk Carter didn't waste the opportunity.

In a swift move, he was already behind the woman.

He reached out and gave her bottom a light pat.

Saying, "I knew it, the elasticity is exceptional."

Clearly, Dirk Carter was remarkably skilled.

But the woman felt humiliated, and seemingly couldn't bear it any longer, her arm quickly swung out another punch.

Dirk Carter caught her wrist mid-air, pulled hard, causing the woman to lose her balance and fall towards him.

With quick reflexes, Dirk Carter hugged the woman into his arms.

His other hand landed on her chest.

He said with a sense of enjoyment, "Oh my, these two are also quite elastic, just my type."

"Sister! I'm coming to help!"

Just as the woman felt helpless.

Another woman shouted from the crowd.

Then, another shadow flashed forward.

A punch was hurled towards Dirk Carter's face.

Dirk Carter remained calm.

Retreating with the first woman in his arms, the attacking woman missed her target again. Dirk Carter caught her wrist with his other hand, pulled hard, and the second woman also ended up in his embrace.

Only then did Dirk Carter realize that the second woman looked exactly like the first one in both attire and appearance.

"Oh my, you're twins. So they say Caleb Ford has the Rose Twins by his side, it seems it's you ladies."

The two of them looked annoyed.

They exchanged glances.

Attempting to struggle together.

Dirk Carter lightly pressed their underarms with each of his hands.

It was as if some switch had been flipped.

The two women were astonished to find that their strength had vanished.

"Why are you still standing there, get him."

The first woman shouted.

The two or three dozen people surrounding Dirk Carter finally reacted, just as they were about to make a move, a voice from nowhere shouted, "Stop! Rose, bring the man to me."

The voice came from a loudspeaker.

Upon hearing the voice.

Everyone present dared not move.

Dirk Carter released the two women but not before giving their behinds a parting touch.

Although both women were furious, they were also helpless.

The three got into the elevator.

The twin sisters glared angrily at Dirk Carter.

Dirk Carter seemed unfazed, and asked, "Which one of you is the older sister and which is the younger?"

Both remained silent.

Dirk Carter chuckled and said, "No worries, I'll find out."

The elevator reached the top floor.

A deep corridor lay before them.

The three walked to the end of the corridor.

The twin sisters pushed open the large door.

"Please go ahead."

The first woman said coldly.

Upon entering, Dirk Carter saw a huge office.

It was hundreds of square meters in size.

The décor was not overly opulent, yet it was meticulously considered.

In the center was a large tea table. Judging by the design, it appeared to be carved directly from a rare tree species, and it was crafted by a master.

Behind the tea table sat a man.

Wearing a traditional Tang suit, leisurely brewing tea.

It was none other than Caleb Ford, the notorious figure of Stillwater County.

Caleb Ford wasn't particularly tall.

About 1.7 meters in height.

His frame was slender, lacking any evident aura of dominance.

Seeing Dirk Carter, he actually smiled and said, "Please, have a seat."

Unafraid, Dirk Carter took a seat opposite him, only then noticing several screens on the side wall. They displayed surveillance footage; Caleb Ford had witnessed everything that transpired in the lobby.

Noticing Dirk Carter staring at the screens.

Caleb Ford placed a cup of tea in front of him.

Saying, "You did it on purpose, didn't you?"

"What do you mean?"

Dirk Carter inquired.

With a slight smile, Caleb Ford said, "You came to my company, said nothing of your purpose, insisted on seeing me, and even took down my people. Wasn't it to make yourself stand out?"

At these words.

Dirk Carter chuckled and said, "Even the County Committee Secretary has to wait in line to see President Ford. If I hadn't taken an unconventional route, I might not be sharing tea with President Ford now."

Caleb Ford slowly raised his head, still with a faint smile on his face.

However, his eyes glimmered with a chilling light, enough to make one shudder.

"Then you should know, Tiansheng doesn't carry next-day debts. You've harmed my people, and you ought to leave something behind, right?"

With that,

Caleb Ford reached under the tea table, pulling out an exquisite and sharp dagger, pushing it in front of Dirk Carter.

"What does President Ford want?"

Dirk Carter asked with an unfazed expression.

"One finger will do, I don't need more."

Dirk Carter extended his hand, inspecting his fingers carefully, then shook his head and said, "Regrettably, that would truly be unfortunate. These hands are here to treat President Ford's people. If they're severed, some folks might just have to lay in bed for life."

These words.

Caused Caleb Ford's eyelid to twitch.

He reevaluated Dirk Carter and asked, "Who are you?"

"Dirk Carter, Deputy Director of the Work Safety Administration."

Dirk Carter replied.

Caleb Ford realized.

Nodded with a cold sneer, and asked, "You're here for my construction site?"

"That's right."

"You cut off water, power, and fuel to my site; I block your way, it's only fair. Director Carter, you don't truly think a few moves would make me, Caleb Ford, yield, do you?"

Caleb Ford asked with a smile.

Dirk Carter took another sip of tea.

And said, "President Ford, as I mentioned, before discussing the construction site, I'm here to treat President Ford's people."

"What a joke, for medical treatment I can go to a hospital, why do I need you?"

Caleb Ford asked.

"Had the hospital been effective, she wouldn't have been bedridden for years, don't you think, President Ford?"

Dirk Carter squinted, looking at Caleb Ford with a meaningful gaze.

In the blink of an eye.

Caleb Ford moved.

The dagger in front of Dirk Carter suddenly appeared in Caleb Ford's hand, and then, a chill pressed against Dirk Carter's neck, as the dagger reached his throat.

"Do you believe I won't kill you?"

Caleb Ford asked.

Dirk Carter nodded, saying, "I do, but isn't President Ford eager for her to recover?"

"Just you?"

"Just me! Oh, I forgot to introduce myself to President Ford, I'm Dirk Carter, son of George Carter."

These words.

Made Caleb Ford shiver.

He asked, "You're George Carter's son?"

"Yes!"

Caleb Ford's dagger abruptly withdrew.

He suddenly stood up and grabbed Dirk Carter by the collar, asking, "How do you know about her?"
