Chapter 1190

Just then, Sally's phone rang, distracting her from that emotion.

It was a call from Robert.

Although Robert had yet to be reinstated into his position, given his experience and impending reinstatement to his original post, several people were already trying to get into his good books.

In a few days, Andy Jennings' mother, Margaret, would be celebrating her seventieth birthday. He planned to help his mother throw a celebration party and invite friends over.

Robert called Sally because he had been invited by Andy.

After the phone call, Sally explained to Cooper, “Mr. Jennings is in charge of the department overseeing the country's administrative justice. He's powerful, highly regarded, and someone Mr. Gaudette is trying to win over. If Mr. Jennings supports Mr. Gaudette, Mr. Gaudette's position would be quite secured, and he need not worry about the votes.”
