626: Chapter 626: Peter Brown Is Not Happy 626: Chapter 626: Peter Brown Is Not Happy In truth, the locals knew very well that Peter Brown was the real person who brought water to Tilted Sunset Village.
Now seeing how the situation had turned out, everyone was quite unhappy.
Yet, what could their discontent achieve?
Matthew Carter had powerful backing.
Whether or not Peter Brown could handle Matthew Carter was sothing everyone was looking forward to seeing.
Helen Brown glanced at Peter and asked, “Do you have a grudge against Mr.
Carter?”
Peter began to consider his actions a bit more after experiencing a few events, he realized that in this world there was no such thing as unconditional affection.
The fact that Lucy Brown suddenly ca to talk to him about this matter indicated that there was so calculation involved.
After a mont’s hesitation, Lucy said, “In any case, it suffices that I have told you about it.”
Having said that, Lucy stepped out.
Watching as Lucy left, Peter grinned.
It was possible that this woman indeed had a bone to pick with Matthew Carter.
That could be good, as she could serve as his eyes and ears.
After his laughter subsided, a murderous look appeared in Peter’s eyes.
If he willingly gives up his rit, it is his own business.
However, having his achievents inexplicably snatched away by soone else was no small matter.
Whoever wants the credit should earn it!
Peter closed the door and headed to his office.
After ascending the staircase, Peter first arrived at Eleanor Smith’s office.
“Mayor Wei, I’m back,” Peter announced his return.
Upon seeing that it was Peter, Eleanor Smith’s face slightly changed, but she quickly turned it into a smile and stood up to say, “Township Head Wang, you’re back.
Take a seat, I’ll make you so tea.”
Eleanor Smith proceeded to make tea.
Peter watched as this beautiful woman turned to make tea.
Upon noticing how her skirt tightly clung to her buttocks due to her movents, he thought to himself, this is a woman with a great figure.
As Eleanor placed the teacup in front of Peter, he looked up to catch sight of her cleavage and his heart fluttered a little.
He thought to himself, this woman really is curvaceous.
Regaining his composure, Peter assud a dignified look and expressed his gratitude, “Thank you very much.”
Eleanor smiled, sat down, and asked, “Who did you go visit this ti?” Everyone knew that the ‘elderly’ Peter ntioned when asking for leave were actually people from the orphanage.
“Well, many people cared for when I was little.
I went to visit them, everyone is doing well.”
“You’ve had a hard life, never forgetting your roots, that’s good.”
After so casual talk, Eleanor said, “The township has made so slight adjustnts to your duties.
You’ll still oversee the sa scope of work, except that Matthew Carter will be handling things in the two villages.
I was just about to discuss this matter with you.”
“Oh, the poverty alleviation in the two villages is a major endeavor, who will be in charge?”
“The township has decided to let comrade Matthew Carter take the lead.
After all, it was comrade Matthew Carter who first suggested siphoning water.”
Who shows such a distasteful face?
Peter blurted out.
Upon hearing these words, Eleanor turned to look at Peter.
His comnt indeed caught her off guard.
It was clear he was not satisfied with the arrangent.
Eleanor’s eyes flickered, with an undecipherable look in her eyes, she said softly, “With water available, the two villages can now thrive and poverty alleviation becos easier.
Letting comrade Matthew Carter take charge is a nod to your capabilities; you’re supposed to focus on maintaining peace and order.
Thus it’s like transferring you back from the village so you can concentrate on maintaining peace in the township.”
It was clear that Eleanor was intentionally avoiding Peter’s question.
