“No way!” Quintus‘ jaw dropped in shock. But the more he thought about it, the more something clicked in his mind.

“Why not? You just don’t understand your father.” Laura couldn’t hold back anymore. “Your dad’s vision has always been beyond what you two could comprehend. That’s why he was always so quiet at home–because the things weighing on his mind weren’t things he could share with you.”

“Are you saying you know something, Aunt Laura?” Claudette asked, unable to suppress her curiosity.

Everyone turned their eyes to Laura, their anticipation obvious. Emmanuel and Mackenzie, in particular, looked like they wouldn’t rest until they got to the bottom of this.

“Sigh… At this point, there’s no point in keeping it to myself.” Laura exhaled deeply, resigning herself to the situation. “The general… He started laying the groundwork for something big… about three years ago.

“He never outright told me, but I overheard him on the phone many nights. Almost every conversation revolved around the presidential election…”

At that, everyone’s interest only deepened.

Quintus and Claudette couldn’t help but gape at each other in shock. As their father’s children, they had no idea he had been orchestrating something this massive all along.

With the tension in the air, Laura spoke even more fervently, recalling every detail as she continued, “The general has always been part of the pro–war faction. Back then, he kept saying the ones in power were too weak, letting foreign forces walk all over us…

“He also said that this year’s election had to bring a hardliner into office. Only then could Chanaea reclaim

its lost territories…”

At that, Emmanuel and Mackenzie exchanged glances. Does this mean Catherine Zelinsky is also part of the pro- war faction? If she wins, will she wage a war?

Laura went on, “Three years ago, he was already planning for this. He said this election had no room for error. If there was even the slightest chance of failure, he wouldn’t hesitate to stage a military coup to secure

the outcome…”

Everyone gasped in shock.

“Did he really say that?” Emmanuel asked grimly.

This wasn’t just some political maneuvering–this concerned the country’s stability and the safety of Chanaea’s people. It was no laughing matter.
