"Davin, I don't think this will work. You can't give him the list. We've invested so much time and resources, and we can't afford to have it wasted!" Hamm exclaimed.
Hamm was deeply displeased. As the prime minister, he held absolute authority, yet in this situation, Matthew seemed to be trying to make him hand over his last trump card. If it failed, Hamm's position as prime minister would be jeopardized. Hamm thought, 'He was acting far too presumptuously, showing no regard for me at all!'
Matthew couldn't help but sneer. "I'm not one of you. I'm risking my life to help you strategize and find a way to win. Are you suggesting it's just for fun? Hamm, as prime minister, you're being naive. Relying solely on brute force won't guarantee victory. This approach is the only option left. War is not just about strength; it also requires intelligence. I trust you understand what I mean. I'll give you time to think it over, but don't take too long."
Hamm firmly disagreed. "Davin, if you're going to listen to him, we have nothing more to discuss. After all, he's just a Holitish. We can't leave the outcome of this battle in the hands of a foreigner."
Hearing this, Davin countered, "Do you have a better plan? Right now, who else can we trust besides King? If he has a way to get us out of this predicament, I think we should give it a try. We've had success with acting together before. Hamm, you should let it go."
Hamm was furious. "Davin, you're being unreasonable! Do you all agree with this?" He looked around, hoping for support, but to his dismay, everyone was actually in favor of Matthew's plan.
"I think it's a good idea!"
"King's method is the most suitable; it can secure the enemy's intel with minimal effort and significantly reduce casualties!"
"I agree, it sounds promising!"
Hamm's face went pale. Davin ignored him and handed the list directly to Matthew. Once Matthew had the list, he immediately contacted Landry online and passed it on to him.
Landry was deeply impressed. He thought, 'Mr. King is truly exceptional. If he wanted to, he could have taken over the entire country by now. Even the government forces listen to him—there's nothing he can't handle.'
On the other end of the line, Julian assured her, "Don't worry. Linda's family has been actively searching for news about Matthew. As soon as we have any results, I'll let you know immediately.
"Be cautious with any rumors circulating domestically! Don't let yourself be manipulated by those with ulterior motives. In a huge conglomerate like Noria Group, public opinion can be used as a tool by competitors. Valerie, protect yourself well. As Matthew said, if you're safe, he can be at ease. You are his source of strength."
"I understand, Julian. Don't worry. I won't fall apart. At least for Matthew's sake, I can stay strong. Just make sure you and Linda stay safe over there."
As Louis and Katherine happened to come over, Katherine immediately recognized that Valerie was on the phone with Julian when she heard Linda's name. Although she felt a bit unsettled, she kept her emotions in check. Valerie, noticing Katherine looking at her, felt a bit awkward and said into the phone, "I'll hang up now, Julian. Take care."
She hung up the phone and stood up, saying, "You're here!"
