In the evening, a dinner party is held at the White House.

On the bright side, this is a very common white house, an ordinary one among the hundreds of banquets a year.

Only those who were among the true elite of the empire knew that banquets of this rank were only a few times a year.

There will be no more than 10 times, but 4 of them will happen to be the night before the Federal Advisory Committee, which meets 4 times a year.

It's almost becoming a tradition.

On this evening, the bankers who will be here tomorrow, as well as those powerful people who want to get in touch with the bankers, will be involved.

Let these four ordinary banquets rise to the top at once.

Not to mention that this year is even more special, because tomorrow's regular meeting may bring about change.

As a result, there are more people who are interested in coming and seeing.

The number of big people attending tomorrow's banquet will be even greater.

At the moment, there are a lot of reporters outside the white house, and this is not an occasion, but the norm.

And there won't be any entertainment reporters here, most of them are reporters from the Masaji page.

None of them knew that tonight's banquet was special, and it was useless to know.

Inside, they can't get in.

They can only be interviewed outside.

These people are all based in DC, dealing with the federal government, and they usually wear very formal suits and are very decent.

There are also many reporters on the periphery of the white house and in the front hall, and some have begun to arrest some federal officials to do interviews.

Of course, there are also some foreign reporters who raise their cameras from time to time to take pictures of a pair of well-dressed American elites.

Outside Pennsylvania Avenue.

There was a black Cadillac monster parked.

In the carriage.

Abel and Kayla sat quietly, both of them looking very patient, waiting for the person in front of them to finish the red carpet.

Abel looked at the side face after being dressed up, and it was even more beautiful. Kayla, who was so glamorous, said with a smile:

"Dear Kayla, your beauty will amaze the audience tonight."

"You think I'm beautiful, that's what I care about the most!"

Kayla's beautiful eyes smiled like a crescent moon, and she had a sweet smile on her face.

Yes, in the afternoon, she was forcibly pulled away by John Wilson.

But not long ago, she returned to Abel openly.

This is so because it is a request from Slade Wilson, and even the California consortium.

The reason is simple, because of tomorrow's regular meeting.

It was a meeting of the California consortium and the Texas consortium to get as many Fed voting rights as possible from the old giants.

This kind of thing, of course, is that everyone unites and looks more powerful.

It doesn't matter if the two sides are not united, at least on the surface.

Then the daughter of one of the core figures of the California consortium.

and Abel, the biggest "Leng Tou Qing" in tomorrow's regular meeting, appeared in front of the other chaebols together.

This can be regarded as a kind of external declaration of the common position of the California Consortium and the Texas Consortium at tomorrow's regular meeting.

With this request, John Wilson couldn't stop it if he wanted to.

In fact, what Abel said to John Wilson during the day that his sister had agreed to be Abel's girlfriend was also false.

The two have only had one date, and the date seems a little ambiguous. It's just a no-brainer.

There is a little bit of Lang having the meaning of a concubine, or the meaning of a dog man and a woman.

hasn't really reached the last step, and has not become a real boyfriend and girlfriend.

But after all, the two are young and both are physically charged. The secretion of hormones is at its most vigorous.

It's a handsome man and a beautiful woman, and it's ambiguous. The basis of ambiguity exists.

At this moment, in this secret space, the atmosphere will of course seem a little crimson.

The car moved forward slowly again, and Abel smiled sideways: "It's our turn!" ”

"Hmm!" Kayla smiled and nodded, she straightened the white silk scarf and gently pulled down her dress, which was a little troublesome due to the long hem of the skirt.

"I'll pull it for you when I get out of the car."

Abel said kindly.

No matter what the page of a reporter is, what he likes most is to watch celebrities go out of their way.

His female companion is ugly, and he is not very good to himself.

What's more, it will also affect Kayla's status in Slade Wilson's heart.

"Thanks, that's no problem! I'm afraid there will be wrinkles in the tun circumference ......"

Kayla is still a little worried that her image is not perfect.

As soon as she finished speaking, she found a pair of large hands placed on the place she had just mentioned.

"Is this it? It's a bit wrinkled, I'll help you smooth it out. ”

Abel said, and without waiting for her to agree, he took action on his own.

Feel his movements.

Kayla's face really turned red involuntarily this time.

Is that place you can touch?

We're not there yet.

"It's done, so it looks like it's fine."

Abel withdrew his hand quietly and smiled thickly.

It looks like it feels good, but it actually feels really good.

Consistent inside and out.

Kayla bit her white teeth slightly, chuckling and "humming".

At this time, the door was opened.

She wanted to say something, but she had to hold back, with a gentle and dignified smile on her face, facing everything outside the car door.

Abel got out of the car first, and the flashing lights outside began to light up as if it were day.

Kayla gracefully took Abel's outstretched hand, gently lifted the hem of her skirt, and bowed slightly with a confident and charming smile on her face and stepped out of the car.

Abel helped her lift the skirt behind her and put it on the red carpet, looking full of gentlemanly demeanor.

"Hey, it's Abel Smith. Hey Abel, look here! Your girlfriend looks a little strange, who is she? ”

"Wow! Mr. Smith, I'm David from the Washington Post, may I ask you a question? ”

"Look over here, Mr. Smith, and the beautiful young lady. Look here, I'm going to take a picture of you! ”

The tall figures of the two stood on the red carpet, attracting the cameras of all the reporters.

The reporters began to shout Abel's name, hoping that the two would cooperate with the reporters to take pictures.

After all, the United States is different from the countries of the East, and it is also somewhat different from Europe.

In the atmosphere of entertainment to death, even the righteous journalists and serious news are becoming more and more entertaining.

Even the Grand Commander can participate in variety shows, participate in reality shows and go to the wilderness to be an actor in a country, the national situation is like this.

With a faint smile on his face, Abel put his hand on Kayla's slender waist, and Kayla also wrapped her hand around Abel's tiger waist, with a sweet smile on her face, changing her posture angle from time to time for reporters to take pictures.

"Tomorrow, starting tomorrow, my reputation will be a little troublesome. Probably starting tomorrow, Americans will be calling me "New Smith Girl." ”

During this time, Kayla Wilson smiled unchanged and whispered slightly.

"Why not? Smith girl, what a nice and pleasant term. Look, Kayla, everybody wants to know you now. I guess they'll be surprised when they find out you're the director of retail at Wells Fargo. Because of your appearance, you look more like a Hollywood star. ”

This was complimenting her on her beauty, and Kayla smiled even more happily.

The situation is gradually turning a little skewed.

It should have been a serious interview, at least in the United States, where the whole people are entertaining, and it should be a slightly more serious interview.

Because of Abel and Kayla's handsomeness, they are now starting to drift a little in the direction of interviews in Hollywood or the entertainment industry.

"Can you be intimate? This will look especially good when you take pictures. ”

A reporter shouted boldly.

Abel, who has taken care of the red flags at home and the colored flags are also very well-behaved, is not timid at all.

He simply reached over, clasped his fingers directly with Kayla, and walked forward slowly, stopping from time to time, hugging Kayla's slender waist to cooperate with the photo.

The more this happens, the more excited and emboldened the journalists become.

"Can it be more intimate?"

Someone shouted again.

The emotions are all set to this, Kayla's heart is beating slightly, she simply snuggles sideways in Abel's arms, raises her head slightly, her beautiful eyes are full of water, and she looks at Abel's side face.

She thought that when she looked at Abel from this angle, he looked like a marble statue of Apollo.

In the girl's heart, she couldn't help but burst into waves.

Abel naturally put his hand on Kayla's, and some reporters excitedly began to press the shutter and shoot wildly.

Able can already imagine that tomorrow the photo of the two of them in this pose will become the cover of many media choices.

American media reporters like this kind of realistic photos the most, they don't give you retouching pictures or anything, they just want real results.

The combination of Abel and Kayla, handsome guys and beautiful women, does not need to be retouched, and it is also picturesque to shoot, not to mention this intimate pose.

And tonight, most of the middle-aged men and women who are dying, or who are in attendance.

These two people can obviously increase the sales of their newspapers even more.

These reporters on the Zhengzhi page are like a collective fight at the moment, and they are simply hilarious.

They didn't expect that it was very ordinary, and there might be at least more than 200 white house banquets a year.

I was able to catch such a big fish tonight!

It can be said that since the two came to the red carpet, they have attracted almost everyone's attention.

Even some of the people who were interviewed in front of them frequently looked sideways at the two, which made the two of them stand out for a while.

Abel is fine.

Since he became famous, whenever he appeared in interviews, or red carpets and other places.

He is the star who shines the most in the audience and attracts the most flashes and reporters.

He was used to this kind of scene.

Kayla Wilson can't.

She felt like she was getting drunk right now.

The feeling of being surrounded by all people, being held by the stars, and being regarded as the focus of attention, she rarely experienced.

This is because of Slade Wilson's tutor.

The old chaebol is a bit of a daughter slave, more spoiled, but also very strict.

Kayla's 25-year-old life has been smooth sailing, but also very low-key.

What's more, above her, there is an older brother who has been looking at her unpleasantly since she became an adult and suppressed her.

It can be said that she has actually been a little depressed.

Nowadays, this kind of treatment like a Hollywood star is a very novel experience for her.

It played a great role in satisfying her vanity.

Originally...... It's like being surrounded by reporters!

At this moment, she felt like the brightest star beside the moon.

Honestly, Kayla feels like she's kind of falling in love with it.

As for the dignitaries and chaebol giants who participated in the dinner in front and behind.

They weren't much surprised by the level of welcome Abel received.

That's Abel Smith, New Age. Morgun, or John Davidson Rockphil.

It's more flowery and topical than the old-timers of the two golden ages.

Then he is naturally more sought after by the media.

Kayla appears next to Abel, and some people don't know her, but there are also many people who know her.

People who don't know her heard that Abel's female companion is actually Slade Wilson's daughter.

In general, they all looked very surprised, even shocked.

There are people who want to be crooked, thinking that it is the bush and Smith falling out. Then Smith quickly got into a deal with Wilson.

The more rational and intelligent people thought of a farther place from the level where Slade Wilson and Abel were said to have a good relationship.

Like what...... The Texas consortium and the California consortium, there is a possibility of union!

And that's what Abel and Slade Wilson want to let people know about in the United States.

Finally walked the red carpet.

As she walked down, the smile on Kayla's face was still charming, Sakura's lips had not been closed, and her white teeth were exposed, and her smile was bright.

She's really happy tonight.

Entering the banquet hall of the White House, a waiter immediately greeted him, bowed slightly and stretched out his hand and said, "Mr. Smith, Miss Wilson, please come here." ”

It was easy to find the place with the waiter. But before he could sit down, he heard someone behind him call Kayla, and when he looked back, Abel saw that it was John Wilson.

Kayla's brother had a smile on his face, and his female companion stood beside him.

Abel knew that it was John Wilson's wife, a woman from the Lytton family in California.

The Litton family is the controller of the American Litton Industrial Company.

This company, which is the fourth largest gun dealer in the United States, mainly produces combat. Machine, drive. Ship-by-ship, cruise. Guide. Play.

"Uncle Gross, they let you pass, dear Kayla. They have something to say to you. ”

Abel heard John say this to his sister.

Able sensed Kayla's resistance.

But John's wife, Lytton, had already come over with a smile, took Kayla's hand gently, and said affectionately:

"Kayla, look over there. Miss Laura Bush's father is looking here, and we don't want to bother Mr. Smith. ”

In the direction she was pointing, little Laura's father, one of Abel's cheap fathers-in-law, Neil Bush, was really looking this way.

Kayla Wilson was reluctant at this point.

In this case, I had to let go with a smile, said a few words to Abel, and then left with my brother and sister-in-law in the direction of the people from the California consortium.

Not long after she left, Abel saw Neil walking towards Alexander and his father out of nowhere.

"Neil, Alexander, when did you arrive?"

Abel said with some surprise.

When he arrived during the day, his father-in-law and father had not yet arrived.

"It didn't take long to arrive, less than half an hour."

Alexander, who has successfully become a member of the Texas House of Representatives.

He looked at his outstanding son and said with a chuckle.

is different from the high-end Texas red-necked image with a thicker face and a thicker neck two years ago.

The current Alexander, who is about two meters tall, wears a custom-made fitted suit, and actually wears a gold-rimmed glasses on the bridge of his nose.

I haven't seen him for a few months, which actually makes Abel feel like an elite guest.

"When Neil and I arrived, you happened to be out to pick up the Californians."

After saying that, Alexander paused, seeing that his son had been looking at what he was wearing.

Dressed in a suit, like a brown bear in a suit, he shrugged his shoulders and continued:

"I know, I don't like it either, it's a little uncomfortable. But your people think that if I wear it this way for formal occasions, I can get more votes. So...... You know. ”

After listening to his father's explanation, Abel laughed.

The "yours" in Alexander's mouth were arranged by Abel for his father, some supernumeraries of the Smith Intelligence Regiment.

These people were working for Abel's father as a staff member and assistant to Alexander.

They were the elite who were recruited by Abel and were good at this work, mainly for Alexander to provide staff and advice when he was working in Austin.

Since the gang felt that this image was more conducive to Alexander's work.

Of course, Abel won't say anything.

On the contrary, he felt that his father was wearing it like this, which was a bit of a thug in a suit.

Kind of like a two-meter-tall more sturdy Hong. Crystal. Po, wearing a suit with gold wire glasses and a tie feeling.

That's when Neil spoke.

He didn't seem to see Kayla Wilson at all, as she had been intimate with Abel when she had just come in.

"It seems that the California consortium will stand the same position tomorrow as ours?"

Abel nodded and looked at little Laura's father, one of his fathers-in-law.

Neil Bush resigned from Pacific Energy a month ago.

Neil has formed his own campaign office and announced his candidacy for California's legislature at the end of the year.

It is very similar to Alexander's steps, but because Alexander is in Texas, with the combined efforts of Smith and Bush, he avoided the election and directly became a member of the House of Representatives.

He is currently a deputy councilor, and he will be elected this year as well.

Not enough, since it's in Texas. Now Abel is the core figure of the Texas consortium and the son-in-law of the shrub......

Seriously, if it weren't for the fear of wasting resources.

Now it's really hard. Top, it's not impossible to give Alexander a Texas governor.

The worst is also the Lieutenant Governor of Texas.

But then it's a bit of a waste of resources, and the phases overlap.

The current acting governor of Texas is the number one horse boy under the bush, and he is the real man of his own.

It's also done very well, the call for victory this year is very high, and there is really no need to him.

But one way or another, Alexander will also be smooth. So Neil is a little anxious and wants to take his first real step this year.

So how could Neil care about Kayla Wilson and make out with his son-in-law?

Neil even wished that Abel and Kayla Wilson were closer.

Because then, if Abel had Wilson's help in California.

In this year's midterm elections, Nanil will have more support and a better chance of victory.

Anyway, my daughter doesn't mind, so he doesn't care if he's a father.

"At least in the general direction. But in terms of details, they certainly can't be like us. ”

Abel replied with a smile.

The three of them talked, and more and more Texans began to gather around Abel.

The first to come was Davis Brown, the core figure of the Texas consortium Brown's family.

As the old fellow approached, he heard Abel saying to his father-in-law and father-in-law:

"Compared to us, to the East Coast, Californians are too divided. They are actually stronger than us now, but their power is scattered. ”

Davis couldn't agree more.

Others say that Texans are a bunch of wars. Contend. Peddler. Child.

In fact, from the perspective of industrial clusters, the California consortium is more like.

In addition to the banking industry, the core industry of the California consortium is not the aviation industry. Mother Army. Ship guide. bomb, that is, to build an airplane big. Cannon Tan. gram car's.

All of its subordinates are Lo. Keshi. De Martin, Rosrop Grumman, Litton Industries, Sikorsky Helicopters and other arms companies.

In the first two years, after the marriage with First Citigroup, even Boeing they could influence.

In this regard, they are even better than the Texans.

What's more, their financial industry is even more beating Texans without Abel.

It stands to reason that the California consortium should have a strong voice in the United States.

However, the reality is that the California consortium is the top ten consortiums in the United States, and the voice is almost the smallest.

In contrast, the Texas consortium, which is very similar to them, but is actually inferior in strength, ranks among the top three in the American consortium.

This is so because the California consortium loses in two places.

One is that they are relatively divided internally, and there is no voice that counts.

Even Slade Wilson is only a leader on the surface.

Another reason is that the California consortium does not connect with local customs.

What kind of earthly atmosphere? The local atmosphere that locks the local bottom reputation and votes!!

This means that the California consortium is the local tyrant in California, but they can't say the same locally as the Texas consortium does.

The reason is that they are not like the Texas consortium, which has full control over local elections.

Thinking about the dogskin in California, Davis, who was holding a red wine glass, heard Neil and Alexander greet him, and the old man hurriedly responded.

"Hey, good evening. Alexander, and Neil. And, of course, dear Abel......"

Davis smiled brightly.

The old man had known Neil well before, because of Herbert's relationship.

Now because of Abel's relationship and Alexander's work in Austin, the two also often correspond.

So in fact, he is very familiar with Abel's father and father-in-law, Davis.

At this time, Rodriguez McKison also walked over.

Within a few seconds, there was a little fuss a while ago. But Martin Elkins and Delin Richardson, who were soon to be intimidated, also arrived.

Finally, Liam S. H· L. Hunt also appeared.

The original five giants of the Texas consortium and Smith, the "talker" who is currently the loudest-talking, are all here.

From this, it can be seen that Texans attach great importance to tomorrow's meeting.

And in all corners of the entire ballroom.

Looking at Abel, who was surrounded by a group of old men, young, strong, handsome, and extraordinary.

Many elites at the top of the empire had some emotion in their hearts.

"I always feel like he's going to change something......"

In the corner, he secretly looked at Texan John Chris Morgun.

I couldn't help but whisper to David Rockphil next to him.
