"Mr. President, your brother, nephew, and daughter-in-law... they are here!"

Just when the atmosphere was a bit solid, a staff member from the White House came in to remind.

"What are they doing here?"

"I don't know. I said I want to see you right away."

Paden was silent for a moment, and finally said: "Let them come in!"

Soon, a large number of members of the Pat family were brought into the president's office.

"Lanny, why are you here?"

Paden immediately looked at a tall man who looked somewhat similar to him.

This is his biological brother, Lanny Paden.

"Robinette, now the scandal about you has gradually gotten out of control. If it continues like this, our family will be doomed. So we are here to advise you. No matter what you think, you should It has to stop!

As President, almost everyone was in awe of Paden's power.

But Lanny, as Paden's younger brother, naturally didn't have too many worries like others, but said it very straightforwardly.

Paden was a little dissatisfied when he heard this, but since he was his own brother, he couldn't get too angry. He could only frown and reply: "Lanny, do you know what you are talking about?"

"Of course I know that things are different now, Robnett. Now David is powerful and has many minions, and now you have offended him again, so we think..."

Speaking of this, Lanni hesitated to speak.

"Think what?"

Lanni looked at the group of family members behind him, and then gritted his teeth and said: "We believe that given the current situation, it is meaningless for you to stick to the position of president. It is better to withdraw early, so that you can still enjoy a happy life. ”

"If not, then David's methods are so ruthless, he will never let you go. The lessons learned from President Nicoson's mistakes are there. In addition, this may also involve our entire family!"

In fact, the reason why he dared to come here and say such straightforward words was mainly because the methods David showed were too ruthless.

This guy may not dare to kill Paiden directly, but if he wants to attack family members like them, they won't be able to resist.

Therefore, for the sake of his own safety and that of his family, he gritted his teeth and said these rather 'rebellious' words.

As soon as he heard that he was asked to give up the presidency, Paden was instantly angered. He replied viciously: "Lanny, you know how many years I have worked hard for this position, and now I haven't even finished one term. You ask me to give up." ?”

"Wow wow wow wow..."

After Paden finished his roar, there was a burst of crying in the office.

"Don't cry, don't cry..."

At this time, among the crowd, a white woman in her thirties quickly comforted the child in her arms.

Her name is Selame, she is Paden's daughter-in-law and the wife of the unfilial son who caused the scandal before.

After coaxing for a while, the child in her arms stopped crying. At this time, Selame came up and said: "Dad, I think Uncle Lanni is right. In this situation, we should stop. Even if If you don't think about yourself, you also have to think about our family. Our 'Xiao' is just over a year old, and he cannot grow up without the company of his father and grandpa!"

After hearing this, Paden didn't get angry again, but instead his mood became extremely complicated.

He has many grandsons, but the current grandson named "Xiao" has special meaning to him.

His eldest son, named Shaw Paden, died of cancer in 15 years.

The white-haired man sent Paden to the black-haired man, so he was naturally extremely sad.

And now the grandson named "Xiao" was named specifically to commemorate his eldest son.

The current scandal is already very serious for him, and his son with a lot of misdeeds can be said to be standing on the cliff.

Let’s not say what will happen to him if this continues, but the people will definitely force him to kill his relatives and send his son to prison.

And once his son goes to jail, his grandson will lose his father's company. Thinking of this, Paidon really can't bear it.

"Uncle Biden, let it go. As long as you stop fighting with David, he will definitely not target us again."

"Yes, uncle, our family has been established over the years. There is no need to continue fighting with that bastard David. Let him fight with the three major groups!"

"..."

While Paden was still in a state of confusion, the rest of the family members present also expressed their pleas.

They are not fools. They all know very well that the reason why David took action this time was not specifically to mess with their Paden family. It was just because of what President Paden of their family had done recently. It will just make the other person angry.

As long as the other party achieves what they want, their family will naturally settle down safely.

Otherwise, given the money they had made and the illegal things they had done by relying on their president, the entire family would inevitably be in a state of fragmentation.

So Paideng himself would have concerns about what to choose, but family members like them would not worry so much in order to protect themselves.

Being able to retain the wealth you have now and not going to jail is the most important thing!

Faced with the entreaties of so many family members, Paden fell down on his chair, as if he had aged ten years.

Yes, he can ignore himself at his age and continue to fight with David, but if he thinks carefully, if such a large family is involved and so many descendants are implicated, this is not the result he wants to see.

After all, there is nothing more important than family and family in this world.

Maybe it would be a good thing for an old man of his age to step down now and enjoy a peaceful life.

But just when Paiden had a slight change, Wilder on the side suddenly came over and said, "Mr. President, we still have a choice."

"Oh? What choice?"

Paiden, who looked worried, was shocked after hearing this.

"Well..."

At this time, Wilder suddenly became a little difficult to speak.

"It's time now, just say what you want to say!"

Wilder turned his eyes to Lanny and others.

Paiden also understood what he meant, and immediately said to these people: "Lanni, take them back first. This matter is of great importance. I will consider it carefully."

"But..."

"No buts, I said I will deal with it!"

Seeing Paiden so determined, Lanny and others could not continue to persuade him, so they could only leave the office.

Seeing these people leave, Wilder organized his words and said: "In fact, at the beginning, whether it was Mr. President, you or me, we all disagreed with going against David so directly. After all, we already knew last time that this guy had collected our dirty laundry, so I think this matter should be blamed on Sullivan, he is too conceited!"

Paiden did not comment on this.

"So what I mean is that we have to talk to David and push Sullivan out to take the blame!"

"Push Sullivan out?!"

Paden thought about this possibility for a while, and then seemed to think of something and asked: "With his personality, even if Sullivan is pushed out to take the blame, I'm afraid he won't stop."

"That's natural, so in addition to that, we can assure him that no matter what he does in the future, whether it's the New York purge or the Texas purge, we will not interfere with him anymore, and we can even directly express our support for him, even if it's compensation for him in this incident!"

"If we support him in everything, then we can't fish in troubled waters anymore, we have to go directly against the three major groups..."

The official purge that David carried out in New York was actually to destroy the power of the Freemasonry Group in the state.

And if he goes to the core areas of the Illuminati and the Ansars, the White House will also stand up and express support, then from a certain perspective, it may really become David's vassal.

And this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that the influence of the three major groups can interfere with many things in the White House.

"Mr. President, Pinkman's articles have made the people very angry with us. If we want to resolve it, we must let David stop and even get his help!"

Paden frowned slightly and asked, "To get his help, according to what you mean, do you really want me to become his vassal?"

If it weren't for David, he wouldn't have fallen to this point.

So when he heard that Wilder's meaning was becoming more and more obvious, he naturally felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Vassal or partner, it's just a title. Think about it, Mr. President. You finally got this position. Do you want to give it to others?"

"So if you want to keep this position, you can only do this!"

"And many people are speculating that David will most likely take action against the Federal Reserve next. If you also stand up and express your support, and finally achieve it smoothly, this is a merit. If you are the president during this period, then this merit will be attributed to you!"

"In this way, all your previous scandals can be diluted in front of this absolute merit!"

Wilder's lobbying is so hard, of course, not just for Padden.

As Padden's chief of staff, once Padden steps down, he will naturally follow him to cool down.

So the reason why he is lobbying so much now is to keep his position!

But no matter what, Wilder's words have made Padden completely moved.

Indeed, after so many years of hard work, he finally became the most powerful person in the world. Who would be willing to let go like this?

He was just forced to do nothing before.

But now that there is such a way, although this method is a bit annoying and shameful, if he can continue to be in power, what does it matter?

In addition, if the Federal Reserve is really nationalized with his support, it will be something that even President Kennedy cannot do.

Such a huge achievement can indeed offset his current scandal!

There is a way!

"What you said makes sense, but if you do this, then the three major groups..."

Paden is still a little worried about the impact of tearing his face and standing on the opposite side of the three major groups.

"Mr. President, David is no longer a weakling. He now controls the majority of members of the Senate and the House of Representatives, the most powerful law enforcement agencies in the United States, the local snake families in various states, and the "thugs" of the Kennidi family and the Thompson family."

"If we add our White House, it will be an overwhelming force. With such a powerful force added together, do you think the three major groups can still make a lot of waves even if they are powerful?"

Paden held his chin.

David has already controlled the powerful American institutions such as the FBI, CIA, and NSA, as well as the local snake families in various states, the Senate and the House of Representatives, etc.

As for the three major groups, except for the huge influence in the military and finance, there is nothing to be afraid of in other aspects.

After weighing the pros and cons, Paiden made up his mind and ordered: "Send a message to Obadiah Vertonghen and others first, and tell them that I invite them to negotiate!"

Because the previous purge incident and the FBI had caused David's dissatisfaction, if the message was sent directly to the other party, the other party might put on airs and refuse to come, which would be a bit embarrassing.

So the best way is to find Obadiah Vertonghen and the two senior IRS officials first, negotiate with them, and then let them communicate with David. This is the wise choice.

"I understand, Mr. President."

…

In an office in the Manhattan branch in New York.

"Inspector General David, President Paiden is too ignorant. Not only did he interfere in your affairs in New York, he also dared to make small moves in the FBI. You can't continue to indulge him. He dared to interfere in the FBI today, and he dared to directly touch the CIA and even your IRS tomorrow!"

Seeing that Paiden's scandals were constantly exposed by David, Kaqila couldn't sit still, so she took a special plane to New York to find David.

Last time, Padden signed the bill, which ruined her dream of becoming president.

As a revenge, she was ignored by the White House and was not allowed to show up on various occasions, which made her feel very upset.

Now that David and Biden have a direct conflict, she is ecstatic and wishes David would kill Padden so that she can take office immediately.

"Vice President Kakila, I will continue to decide based on the situation. If I really need you, there will definitely be no other choice."

"Inspector General David..."

"Beep, beep..."

Just as Kakila wanted to continue lobbying, the sound of the phone ringing on the desk interrupted her, and she had to patiently shut up.

"Okay, Vice President Kachila, whether you can take over this time or not, I promise that you will never be ignored again in the future. This is my compensation to you, let's leave it at that."

Although he had said last time that as long as Paideen was willing to sign, the agreement to help the vice president take office would be shelved.

But after all, he did play a role, which led to the current cold shoulder by the White House. David should be held responsible for this.
