Chapter 353

“Just leave it there,” Charlotte said with a sigh.

She didn’t want to make things hard for someone just doing his job.

“Got it!” Sam lit up instantly. “I’ll leave you to it then. Take care, Miss Riley.”

Charlotte gave a small nod. “Mm–hmm.”

After he left, Charlotte looked at the two exquisite pieces of jewelry and let out a long, helpless sigh.

In Atlantis, current leader Saithorn had been in cahoots with Joseph Ford long before becoming Prime Minister. They used each other for mutual gain, and Saithorn’s election win relied heavily on Ford’s behind–the–scenes influence.

Now, Saithorn’s term was finally coming to an end.

According to Atlantis law, the next Prime Minister must be a current member of Parliament, nominated by the Speaker of the House and confirmed by both chambers before being officially appointed by the King.

Because of his identity and international position, Sean couldn’t directly interfere in the political process.

But he could back the right candidate–quietly, from the shadows.

Before Saithorn’s rise, his strongest rival had been Enza Mahan, a formidable candidate with both an elite family background and real political skill. She had nearly won in the last election.

But then, Saithorn’s momentum exploded out of nowhere. His approval ratings and votes suddenly surged past Enza’s.

After Saithorn was elected, he immediately pushed through a bill legalizing marijuana.

The biggest beneficiary? Joseph Ford–the most powerful crime boss in Atlantis.

That was when Enza finally realized the truth. Saithorn had struck a deal with Joseph long ago.

Joseph had poured massive financial support into Saithorn’s campaign. Once elected, Saithorn repaid the favor by becoming his puppet, helping Joseph expand his criminal empire even further.

It was this political backing that gave Joseph the confidence to openly challenge the Jasper family in Jersey City and even repeatedly send assassins after Sean.

Sean’s trip to Atlantis this time was for one purpose: to help Enza win the Prime Minister seat and take Saithorn down for good. Unlike Saithorn, Enza was known for her integrity and public service. She had ambition–but the kind rooted in responsibility and justice. She was the kind of leader who fought for the people.

Sean’s associate, Noah Smith, had already arrived weeks ago to lay the groundwork on Sean’s behalf.

As soon as the results confirmed Enza’s victory, Sean’s team would move in.

That evening, Charlotte returned home to have dinner at the Riley estate.

In the living room, the TV was playing the international news.

Mrs. Coleman, the housekeeper, was setting out the dishes one by one.

Xena came downstairs holding Jodie’s hand. “You’re back, Lottie.” “Yeah.”

Charlotte placed her bag on the couch and headed to the bathroom to wash her hands.
