The mayor felt satisfied with what he heard and nodded.
"Exactly, all sorts of people are in these humble wards. It's a mess."
The mayor suddenly spoke, his words carrying a heavy, targeted meaning.
Upon hearing this, Nia Mitchell immediately furrowed her brow.
"What do you mean by that?"
Nia wasn't one to be taken advantage of anymore. After being spoiled by Maxwell Peary, she had long since shrugged off the little bit of timidity she once had.
"I'm telling you, aren't you afraid I'll leak what you're saying if you talk like this?"
What kind of society is this, anyway? she thought, scoffing internally.
If this mayor wanted to keep his job secure, he should be doing it properly.
For him to be here, using his official position to speak like this, was simply intolerable.
The mayor was startled, then a smile suddenly spread across his face.
"Little miss, are you threatening me?"
The mayor's expression turned dangerous. In D City, no one dared to speak to him this way.
