Moments Later, a plethora of evidence implicating Ashton in corruption and bribery materialized on the
screen.
“Three years ago, during the highway construction, Ashton accepted money from a disreputable
company, aiding them in securing the bid. He allowed them to use subpar cable, which later caused
several accidents.”
“Ashton exploited his connections to help a real estate developer acquire land adjacent to Vagow Park.
The project has since become an abandoned structure, as a migrant worker, unable to collect his
wages, perished there.”
With just a few messages, Marco ignited a wave of disbelief and horror among the onlookers.
This wasn’t a simple case of corruption and bribery. It was something severe and dire!
They couldn’t believe that such atrocities had occurred right under their noses. It was staggering that
Ashton maintained his position until now.

Klein was astonished but also relieved that he had declined Ashton’s invitation to join his illicit
endeavors.
Ashton’s Lust for wealth and power was insatiable. Had Klein been closer to him, he might have been
dragged into this mess.
Brady’s face grew ashen. Ashton’s crimes had gravely violated the law, and he hadn’t known about any
of it until this moment. It was unfathomable how brazen Ashton had been in recent years.
The audacity to report Rowan and accuse him of conspiring with Loraine!
Brady hesitated no longer, ordering his men to apprehend Ashton immediately.
However, before the investigation team could act, the Cheetah Command members had already
surrounded Ashton at Rowan’s order.
Ashton paled, bolting from his seat and sprinting away amid the startled cries of the crowd.
The venue teemed with people, forcing Ashton to push and weave his way through the crowd. To avoid
harming innocent bystanders, the soldiers couldn’t apprehend him immediately.
Chaos erupted as the crowd scattered in all directions.
Laura, rooted to the spot in terror, watched Ashton sprint to her.

Fearing that he would drag her down with him, she shoved him away.
“Stay away from me!”
Ashton stared at her in disbelief, tumbling awkwardly amidst the scattered chairs before soldiers pinned
him down.
Enraged, he yelled at Laura, “You traitor! You dare to turn your back on me after taking my money!”
He tried to rise, lunging at Laura with bloodshot eyes.
“This woman is in League with me!”
