Chapter 577 Thoughts rapidly filled Mr. Campbell’s mind.
He had to keep his job. He could not leave Cade Nelson.
If not, he would be done for!
Inside Cade’s office.
“MP Lidell, please, have some tea!” Cade said as he brewed David a cup of tea.
Now that no one else was present, Cade had even changed how he was addressing David.
David took the teacup and had a sip before placing it on the coffee table. It was not odd that Cade knew who he was.
If not, he would not be treating him so respectfully.
“Cade, there’s something I would like to ask you!” David said.
“Please tell me what it is, MP Lidell!”
“Do you know what’s going on with the Greg family in River City?”
“Are you referring to how the Greg family is teaming up with the Nichols family?” Cade asked.
“Yes! That’s exactly it!”
“Naturally, I do know about it.”
“In that case, are you, as the cabinet minister of South River province, going to allow this family to do whatever they want in Somerland? Are you tired of your position as the cabinet minister of South River province?”
“MP Lidell, here’s something you might not know. It is not that I, Cade Nelson, am not doing anything about things. However, amidst the sixty-six provinces in Somerland today, at least half of them are populated with powerful hidden families and sects that are integrating local families into their circles. These hidden families and sects are extremely powerful, to the point where I am unable to fight back against them. Moreover, I have reported these to my superiors a long time ago, but they are overwhelmed with work now. They have merely instructed us to keep an eye on them and said that they will immediately send someone over to get rid of them once they do anything that gravely violates the laws of Somerland. Although these families have joined forces now, there is nothing I can do, since they have not yet done anything that goes against Somerland’s laws!” Cade said with a rueful expression on his face.
He, too, felt horrible that the Greg family was joining forces with the Nichols family and making their way into River City.
He, Cade Nelson, had initially been one of the most influential people in South River province.
As the cabinet minister of South River province, he would suffer the most losses the minute the Nichols family established a firm foothold in River City.
His power would be massively curbed. In the future, there might even be a possibility that the Nichols fainily would get to call the shots in South River province.
Things were still alright now.
Mason, the Chief of Staff, was still alive.
These people would not dare get up to no good yet.
However, once Mason died…
Somerland would descend into chaos.
By then, no one would know how chaotic it would be.
