My Husband Is a Gary Stu

After the meeting, Armand eliminated all those who took the Gaudette family's side. He did all that so swiftly and ruthlessly, getting everything done before October arrived.

While most people who dabbled in politics did nothing wrong, they were intimidated by the Gaudette family to take sides.

After witnessing how stealthily and lethally Armand dealt with those who supported the Gaudette family, the remaining forces that weren't yet wiped-out severed relations with the family and declared their stance to Armand.

Meanwhile, some officials were bribed by the Gaudette family to assist them in certain aspects.

However, the Gaudette family made sure their actions were discreet, and they transferred the bribes through multiple channels until they reached the intended officials. Because of this, the transactions could not be traced back to the Gaudette family.

Even so, most of the people who were on the Gaudette family's side turned their backs on them, while a minority of them maintained a neutral stance. The remaining parties were subject to corruption allegations at the time, and the Gaudette family was under investigation.

When the votes were tallied by the end of September, the Gaudette family was defeated, while another candidate was elected.

Less than six days after the handover, a major traffic accident took place in the early hours of the morning on a road in Jadeborough. It was reported that a Lamborghini had plowed through three cars in a row.

Two people died in the accident while two others suffered serious injuries.

It was in the middle of the night when the accident occurred. As soon as the police got to the scene after receiving the call, the man in the Lamborghini was still unconscious, reeking of alcohol.

Even after being woken up by the police, taken out of the car, and handcuffed, the man still yelled arrogantly, “Do you know who I am? My father is a commanding officer! How dare you handcuff me? Do you have a death wish?”

“You drove under the influence and killed someone. You're coming with us to the police station!”

“So what if I killed someone? My family is loaded! I won't be charged even if I did something more horrible! I need to call my dad...”

The crowd of onlookers immediately uploaded the video of the incident to the internet, immediately creating a huge uproar among the netizens.

Soon after the man was brought to the police station, someone revealed that the man was actually Zeno Cicero, the son of the deputy commanding officer, Zeke Cicero, who had just been transferred back to Jadeborough a few months ago.

Meanwhile, someone else analyzed the video footage and concluded that Zeno had not only consumed alcohol but also drugs on that night.

Since it was a severe accident, Armand called the police station to instruct them to investigate Zeno, release the urine test results, and deal with it in whatever way they deemed appropriate.

In the absence of any interference in the investigation, Zeno was charged with deliberate murder. Since he displayed no remorse for his actions, he was sentenced to death, set to be executed next spring.

As for his father, Zeke, the higher-ups had harshly reprimanded him for not disciplining his son well. Zeke was eventually demoted and a punishment of not being allowed to be promoted within twenty years was meted out to him. There was no chance for him to be promoted to commanding officer in this lifetime.

Following Zeke's scandal, the Gaudette family lost their last ally as well.

Cooper knew Sally was behind the incident ever since Zeno's drunk driving scandal made the news. The result of the police's investigation only served to further confirm his surmise.

He knew Sally approached Zeno for an opportunity to plot his downfall.
