Chapter 633

Supporting Caroline Wynne Rehnquist's candidacy for this year's Manhattan District Attorney election is part of Abel's exchange of interests with William Hubbs Rehnquist and the Morgenthau family.

It was also in exchange for Rehnquist's support for Paige to become a judge of the District of Columbia Circuit Court and support for the Morgenthal family's tentacles to penetrate into the federal legal system.

Let's put it this way, if everything goes well. Rehnquist, who has always been involved in the federal legal system, can become the most influential Manhattan District Attorney in the U.S. local judicial system.

In turn, Paige became the chief judge of the District of Columbia Circuit Court, which means that the local judicial tycoon Morgenthau has successfully established a foothold in the federal legal system.

The choice of Peggy for the top position was not only due to emotional factors. Also because of the three old guys of the Morgenthau family, the other two are the same as Robert, although their experience, status, and status are very strong. But precisely because they are very strong in this aspect, they have many friends and offend many people at the same time.

If you want to put them in positions of power, let's not talk about the problem that they are already old. As far as the effort required is concerned, it is far more difficult than getting a young person like Paige to take the position.

Rather than that, it would be better to push Paige to the top.

After comprehensive consideration, the Morgenthau family had no choice but to accept Abel's request.

After all, no matter what, Peggy is also their Morgenthau's daughter.

That's why New York's legal female Satan appears in Washington today.

Because of our Ms. Caroline, she is going to give up business and go into politics, and will no longer be a female lawyer.

Of course, the specific exchange of interests is much more complicated than this.

Abel also got through to many people in the Bush family, the Senate, and many other parties at the same time, and successfully made Paige, the youngest judge in history, the chief judge of the District of Columbia Circuit Court.

If the detailed process here were written into a novel or simply made into a TV series, it is estimated that the sales or ratings would not be much worse.

It's just that it's probably not as full of twists and turns as "House of Cards" in a future parallel time and space.

Because in reality, many times this kind of thing is very boring.

By the time Abel showed up on the plane back to New York, it was already early December.

In fact, according to Abel's itinerary in previous years, he usually stays in the warm Los Angeles at this time.

Or go on vacation to tropical places such as Miami and Hawaii.

Because it's really cold in New York in December, much colder than Europe and other regions at the same latitude. Normally, he would only return to New York around Christmas every December and would not stay here the rest of the time.

Unless there are some special circumstances - I chose to come back here in the cold December this year because of this special situation.

He must ensure that Caroline Rehnquist becomes the new Manhattan District Attorney.

It's not just about his commitment to justice.

Also because the position of Manhattan District Attorney is very important to him who has always regarded New York as one of his hometowns.

First, there is the Manhattan District Attorney's Office, which is in charge of the most important Manhattan district in New York. If you want to be unscrupulous in Manhattan, you must rely on the Manhattan District Attorney for justice.

Secondly, the current chief judge of the Federal Second Circuit Court is Sonia Sotomayor, who is from Zipperton.

The Second Circuit governs Connecticut, New York, and Vermont, which means that the people in Zipperton have the final say in federal law in these places.

Federal law already belongs to others, if the Manhattan District Attorney falls into the hands of the Donkey Party again.

Even Abel must be cautious when acting in New York.

It's not that these people dare to openly oppose him, after all, his influence and resources are there. But if there are no people of his own under both federal and regional laws, if he wants to do something, he has to transfer more benefits to these people in order to avoid trouble.

In order to avoid some small troubles that will lead to more troubles later. Abel never did this kind of thing.

So he chose to return to New York to sit in person and watch Caroline win the election before leaving New York to escape the winter elsewhere.

In the palace in the sky.

Kayla Wilson, who arrived in Washington from Los Angeles not long ago and stayed with Abel for two days, came out of the sky bedroom.

It had been almost five months since she gave birth and she had been in Los Angeles for too long. Finally, I couldn't bear it any longer. I was worried that my interests in New York would be damaged and I had to go back to work in New York.

This time her brother and father couldn't hold her down either.

He had no choice but to agree to her going to New York and asked her to take the child with her.

There is no way, the child is too young. And it was her who gave birth to her. In addition, the Wilsons probably also took into account the mood of the Litton family and the fact that Abel mainly stayed in New York.

They agreed to Keira coming to New York, but required that she must join Abel, so Keira would first go to Washington to meet Abel.

Children as young as five months old are completely ready to fly.

What's more, for him, the plane was specially equipped with a constant pressure bedroom in the air to ensure that it would be peaceful even at an altitude of several thousand meters.

Just now, Kayla was in the bedroom, taking care of the child to rest, leaving the two maids and nanny to take care of the child, and then came out.

"Orlando asleep?"

"Well, I just ate and slept."

Kayla walked up to Abel and snuggled into his arms tenderly, "How far are we from New York?"

"Maybe we have to take a detour." Abel hugged her and smelled the scent of milk on her body, which was unique to nursing mothers. Some people thought it was the smell of milk. He chuckled and said:

"The weather forecast said that the severe ice storm that caused Massachusetts and New Hampshire to declare a "state of emergency" seems to be affecting New York State. I hope we can get to New York before the ice storm arrives. Otherwise, we will choose to take a temporary detour."

"what's the situation?"

"A band of low pressure will affect areas from southwestern Pennsylvania to northern Maine. This ice storm will appear as freezing rain or sleet in most states. We can get to New York before the snow falls. I have already reported to Long Island Manor that I called and asked them to check the backup generator and other power supply equipment. I am worried that there may be a large-scale power outage. So this time we will not stay in Smith Tower. It is safer to stay on Long Island."

The power supply system in the United States can only be said to be very capitalist. Similar to the well-known power outages caused by the Texas storm, it is actually very common in the United States.

One or two cases occur almost every year, depending on which state is unlucky enough to encounter it.

Generally speaking, this kind of situation in California is caused by too much heat or wildfires. When Texas and the East Coast experienced widespread power outages, it was naturally due to the ice and snow storm.

If there are widespread power outages in Florida and other places farther south, it goes without saying that it must be a hurricane coming ashore.

Snow disasters like those in the big Eastern countries in 2008 only happen once every few years in the United States, if not every year.

All Americans have long been accustomed to these things, including the rich.

The difference is that the rich have more choices and can choose to go abroad for vacation in better places in advance.

Just like the famous time in Texas, when the entire state was experiencing a power outage, the distinguished Senator took his family outside for a vacation...

Kayla wanted to say something else, but then the flight maid came over and reminded her gently, saying that the plane encountered the front end of the ice storm airflow and that seat belts must be fastened in the seats to ensure safety.

Of course, Kayla immediately complied, sitting down next to Abel and buckling her seatbelt.

Fortunately, the plane did not have to take a detour and appeared at JFK International Airport before the ice storm reached New York.

In the sky palace, Abel sat on his seat and fastened his seat belt. He looked at the plane windows which were blurred and covered with ice. The feeling of weightlessness during landing made him slightly uncomfortable.

Kayla, who was sitting next to her, also frowned and said, "It seems that the weather in New York has started to get bad."

Abel smiled and said: "The weather in New York is certainly not as good as Los Angeles. I still think you should take Orlando back to Los Angeles."

Keira curled her lips and did not respond to his words.

Of course she also feels that the weather in Los Angeles is better if she has a choice.

But isn't it here in New York, where she has greater power and enjoys greater social prestige?

Unless her father and brother are willing to give up power to her, Keira has little desire to return to Los Angeles. And to a certain extent, she is gradually growing into a representative figure of the California consortium in New York.

This kind of feeling is like a prince in a consortium. Keira, who is extremely powerful and ambitious, will not give up easily.

It's hard for little Orlando Abel Wilson, who has to live with his "aunt" in the cold New York at a young age.

Well, it actually doesn't hurt him. The terrifying wealth of his biological father and "aunt" could allow him to live in spring all year round in New York.

The plane quickly came to a stop, and as soon as the cabin door opened, cold wind, low temperature, ice, rain and snow swept across the air.

Under the vast sky like a dark night, slanting snow flakes and freezing points were thrown out one after another by the strong wind, hitting Abel's coat and the umbrella above his head. No one said anything, they quickly walked down the hanging ladder, bent down and sat in the warm car with the red taillights on.

Keira was worried about her children and chose to ride with Orlando in a Cadillac Escalade equipped with climate-controlled comfort equipment.

Abel looked back at the Escalade behind him, then turned to look out the car window at the snow-filled sky. He took out his cell phone from his coat pocket, opened it, and then made a few personal calls before going out.

They were all calling his women, mainly to ask them not to come to New York in the near future. Also a reminder to Britney and Avril Lavigne in New York:

"Well, if the power goes out, go to the villa on Long Island immediately. Or you can go there now. Kayla and I will go there now."

Abel told Britney on the other end of the phone with a serious tone.

This is not a big country in the East. If there is a large-scale power outage, it is cold, dark, and the lights are on, someone may take the opportunity to cause trouble. When it comes to public security issues in the United States, Abel has always taken precautions with the greatest malice. .

In fact, this is indeed the case. This kind of thing is too common in the United States.

With this in mind, Abel suddenly had an idea along the way and started making phone calls to assign tasks.

This time it was not a call to his woman, but to Caroline and her campaign office.
