Chapter 2616
Hamish saw how quickly hatred burned in Carrey's eyes after he mentioned Nathan's title. Hence, he took advantage of the situation and said, "The truth is, Dad still has a shot at it. I have an idea. There is something we can do to prevent Nathan from being the president. Once Nathan is out of the picture, Dad will most likely become the next president."
Carrey immediately asked, "What can we do to make that happen? Tell me!"
Hamish got closer and whispered into Carrey's ears. “Nathan's wife, Penny, is leading a cancer medication research team of Cross Group to devise a treatment plan to cure President Woods. I recently learned that the drug they are going to give the president has not undergone human trials. In other words, Penny and the team are not officially allowed to distribute the drugs or put them on the shelves. It's still undergoing development."
Hamish paused for a few seconds before continuing, "What do you think will happen if something were to happen to the drugs, and President Woods was killed because of that? Penny is the one who gives the president a drug that has not been legally approved, and if the drug causes the president's demise... Imagine what the people will say about her. Since she is Nathan's wife and is the one responsible for administering the drug for the president, her fall will drag Nathan down as well."
Carrey's eyes widened when he heard that.
Hamish grinned and further stated, "Nathan will be in trouble, and he won't be able to deny the part he played in President Woods' death. No one will want him as the president, and he will probably even lose his position as the Chief Military
Governor once the news reaches the citizens."
Carrey's eyes glowed, but he quickly calmed down. He dissed, "Your story is fascinating, Hamish, but it is all rooted in whether Penny's drug will kill the president. If she is not responsible for his death, then nothing will change."
Hamish grinned. "That is where you shine, Carrey."
"Me? What are you talking about?" asked Carrey in confusion.
Hamish kept smiling. "If I remember correctly, you have quite a few friends. Some of them are royal physicians who are a part of Royal Medical Department responsible for curing President Woods. If you get your friend to mess with Penny's drugs, the president will be killed by the drugs, and then everything I said earlier will come true."
Carrey's eyes instantly bulged. He gasped and blurted, "What the f*ck? How dare you come up with an idea as shitty as this? How could you ask me to cause harm to the president-"
Before Carrey could even finish speaking, Hamish clamped the guy's mouth shut hurriedly.
Hamish was getting a little nervous as well, so he whispered, "Lower your voice, Carrey. We can't shout about stuff like this. Also, who do you think I'm doing all this for? I'm only suggesting this for the sake of our family. This is all to make our dad the president! Remember. If Dad is the president, then the power you hold will be like that of a crown prince! You will have done a great job if everything comes out a success, and Dad definitely won't forget the effort you made once he becomes the president. You will, for sure, be praised and rewarded."
Praised and rewarded!
Those words brought an excited smile to Carrey right away.
However, he calmed down quickly and stared suspiciously at Hamish before sneering. "Hah! If that is such a great thing, then why don't you do it yourself? Why count me in at all? Killing the president is not an easy feat. You're not Peking trying to con me, are you?"
Hamish immediately complained,
"What the hell? We're family, so why
would I con you? Getting you in

trouble will just get Dad in trouble, which will get the entire family in trouble won't benefit from it at all. +
All I want is for Dad to seize this rare
opportunity and become the
president. Only then will be
rewarded with the glory I will get when I walk beside you and Dad in the future."
Carrey was still suspicious, but he didn't seem as hostile anymore.
Hamish struck while the iron was hot. He continued by saying, "There's also the problem of how I am not friends with those royal physicians. You know them much better, so you can bribe or blackmail them into helping 'm sure they will listen
you. I on the other hand, will
have a
hard time getting them to obey me. That is why I am counting on you for this." Carrey narrowed his eyes before he said, "I guess you're right. It's just... Forcing those royal physicians to cooperate with us will take a lot of manpower and money. I have wasted too much of both these past few years, so I have run out of everything!"
Hamish immediately offered, "I haven't been spending as much, Carrey. I mean... I don't have much, but I can spare a billion or so. As for manpower... I've trained a team of elite. I call them the Blood Warriors. For your sake and the sake of this mission, I will give you my Blood Warriors and money."
Carrey was delighted to hear that. He agreed right away. "Deal! You have spared no effort to help me, and a real man will not let that effort go to waste. Don't worry. I will accomplish this mission and help our dad become the president."
Hamish cheered, "Hell yeah! There is nothing that can't be done if we work together." Carrey grinned evilly. "Nathan will be the one to fall this time."
