Chapter 380: The Work of the Senate_2

"This David," muttered a male voice next to Ivanka with a hint of dissatisfaction, "he promised the meeting would be at seven in the evening, and now it's almost half past and he's still not here!"

"Shut your mouth!"

Ivanka, losing her patience, cast a reprimanding look at Jafede.

Made to feel wronged by the reprimand, Jafede replied, "I was just saying..."

"Even so, you can't say such things here; it could bring trouble for our family!"

Ivanka seemed irritated, glancing briefly toward Elvis who was not far away.

Seeing the situation, Jafede also realized that he had indeed misspoken.

The CIA was omnipresent, and given that the intelligence chief was present, daring to voice complaints like that in public was just asking for trouble!

And although it was just a passing complaint, if it reached the ears of someone like David, who remembered every slight, who knew what troubles it could stir up!
