Just like all allies of Alfons, Gabi actually knew every little detail of Councilman Yong's dirty little secret. Obviously, Alfons wanted to use this information in case the man betray him.
"What was her name again? Amanda? She is a beautiful baby, you know."
"You — " Councilman Yong's face reddened. "How did you— "
"It's useless to ask such a question, Councilman Yong. All I know is that you purposely hid this information because of what you did to her mother. Her mother was half your age, right? About the age of your son?"
Gabi smiled when she saw the councilman started trembling before her. "You know… forcing yourself to a woman is just… shameful. Don't you think so, councilman?"
The councilman's face turned purple. Gabi couldn't help but wonder why the man was holding his breath. "What do you want? If you want me to approve the reclamation, then— "
"No."
"Excuse me?"
"I want you to convince everyone not to approve of this project."
"What? Do you understand what you are saying? This is going to be an economic zone! Everyone would— "
"I have my reasons, Councilman Yong. Just do as I say and we will live happily ever after."
Councilman Yong glared at her. "There is no end to this, right? After I do this, there will be more in the future! Since you have my weakness now, then you are going to treat me like a dog."
"Hmmm… that is partly right." Gabi beamed. "Don't worry, as long as you don't hurt your child, then I won't treat you badly."
Councilman Yong pursed his lips. "And if I do this… what are you going to do next? Obviously, the other party is going to argue. The only thing that we could do is delay the reclamation for a few years. However, once the new mayor would — " Councilman didn't continue his words as he stared at her. Realization hit him. "You — Don't tell me that you want me to become the next mayor?"
"Yep. It seems that you really have the ability to think in advance. Impressive!" Gabi was actually following the events that would happen in the previous lifetime. Even without her intervention, Councilman Yong is going to be elected as the mayor, while Alfons is going to be elected as a councilman.
In the previous timeline, Alfons and Councilman Yong became close around this time.
"You are going to support me?"
"Of course."
"Why? Is this just because of the reclamation project?"
"Yep." Gabi inhaled the rich smell of her coffee before taking a small sip. Smiling, she continued, "I am expecting Councilman Yong to win. I know that Councilman is ambitious, someone who only thinks about the welfare of the people. So… the position suits you perfectly."
For a few seconds, Councilman Yong stayed silent. He lowered his head and stared at his fingers. "Alright, I will do my best to stop the reclamation."
"Thank you. Since Councilman Yong is a very busy individual, then… please go ahead and leave."
The councilman stared at the necklace before he slowly pushed it towards her. Of course, the man understood that the necklace is another trap. His child is only a few years old. Why would Gabi give her a nice, elegant necklace? Since Councilman Yong didn't want to have any more unforeseen problems in the future, he decided to give the necklace back. "Thank you for your kind words. I will inform you once everything is settled."
Gabi nodded and waved her hand at the old man, who seemed to have gotten ten years older after seeing her.
"Miss, do you think the councilman could actually do it?" Kasper asked.
"Yep." The old man was able to hide his dirty deeds for years. Even Alfons paid a lot of money just to know this old man's weakness.
"But isn't it impossible? That place is… is a future economic zone. The people won't allow that to happen."
"It won't be easy, but it is possible," she said as she recalled Earl's words about this project. The reason why her grandfather wanted to stop or delay it is because of flooding. This project could affect the lower regions of the neighboring cities and also affect one of their subsidiary company. It was indeed a selfish move on the part of her grandfather.
This is why Gabi told Earl that she would delay the project for at least two years. By that time, their grandfather should have come up with a new measure to cope up with the flooding. There are other options that they could explore to avoid any losses, so Gabi was confident that this won't have any huge effects on the company.
The only thing that made her ecstatic about this task was the fact that this would allow her to put a leash on that old man.
"Miss, what if… he betrays you?"
"He won't do it without researching more information from me." And since he doesn't have the means to do that, Councilman Yong won't have a choice but to get close to Alfons. This would give them two opportunities to scheme against her. And once the scheme fails, Councilman Yong is going to abandon Alfons.
After all, Gabi still held a piece of concrete evidence about what he did.
"Let's go back to the house," Gabi said. She is not really in a hurry to inform her grandfather that she already finished her first task.
"Miss, it seems that you are right. I just received a text message from one of our people in the Sealey Family. They are indeed preparing the back villa for her. And it seems that they are planning to send young master Harry abroad for a few months."
"Oh… Too bad." Gabi sighed. The only good thing about this matter is the fact that Aren didn't get pregnant. Meaning, no child will be involved in this… war. "Well… what can I say? Send Aren to the Sealey Family. And make sure to tell them that hurting her is like hurting their son too."
