Starting Sign-In from a Billionaire God Chapter 1465 - 1464

United Kingdom’s Crown Prince Potter summoned Prime Minister John Parkinson to his room.

"John, you are an outstanding Prime Minister, a proud asset of Great Britain, and I’ve always believed in you," Prince Potter smiled.

The Prime Minister was flattered: "Thank you, Prince Potter, but surely you didn’t call me here just to say that?"

Prince Potter replied, "John, you should know that I enjoy doing business. I’ve made quite a few investments—some successful, some failures—but luckily I have excellent investment advisors, so overall, I’ve earned more than I’ve lost. I am very satisfied with the current situation and don’t wish to change it."

"OK..." John Parkinson said.

He was momentarily at a loss for words.

Prince Potter said, "The Smith family... I’m aware."

John Parkinson said, "Prince Potter..."

Prince Potter interrupted him, "You know what will happen if Tony Smith’s affair is exposed, right? I think both you and I are well aware. I don’t care about the Smith family, but I care about my assets. My losses would be in the billions, and I don’t want to see that happen."

John Parkinson said, "Prince Potter, I’m afraid I can’t control this matter..."

Prince Potter said, "John, there is an election for Prime Minister in a year. I strongly support your re-election, but you also know your competition is very strong; you need stronger support."

John Parkinson fell silent.

Indeed, he was aiming for re-election as Prime Minister, and his current competitor posed a significant threat.

The election for Prime Minister seemed like two parties vying for votes, but behind it was a battle of capital.

Over the years, John Parkinson, while achieving relatively good governance from the people’s perspective, had offended many influential figures, leaving him behind his opponent in terms of capital.

This was indeed a headache for him because without enough capital support, winning would be tough.

Prince Potter said, "Today, William Smith called me; he also appreciates you and intends to support your campaign. You should understand what I mean and know how to act."

This was a temptation, a blatant temptation.

Prince Potter continued, "You should know William, his network and connections are exactly what you need. With his help, you’ll win this battle easily; otherwise, it might be difficult."

John Parkinson bit his lip, momentarily speechless, seemingly contemplating deeply.

"Prince Potter, what do you want me to do?" John Parkinson finally asked.

Prince Potter replied, "Ensure Tony Smith escapes the airplane incident."

John Parkinson displayed a troubled expression: "Prince Potter, to be honest, from a personal standpoint, I am eager to help, but this matter is quite complex..."

Prince Potter said, "As far as I know, this matter can be solved easily. The external world has no idea Tony Smith is the mastermind behind it. There is ample room for manipulation; it just depends on how you handle it. I believe the public doesn’t need to know the truth; they just need an explanation, and you can just create one."

There is only one truth.

This statement exists only in an ideal world.

Because in the real world, the truth often can have many versions: one is held by the informed individuals, the resource owners, or those in power who can access the real story.

Another "truth" is the dressed-up "truth" by those in power, the truth others want you to know. If others don’t want you to know, you might never find out.

Here, Prince Potter and John Parkinson, as people in power, both know the real truth, while Prince Potter is asking John Parkinson to create another "truth."

"John, as I said earlier, I believe in you and hope that one day we can work together. You know, the Queen’s health is already... Soon, I’ll become the King. After my ascension, I hope you’ll lead the United Kingdom; this is a win-win scenario for both you and me." Prince Potter stated.

This Prince Potter was already nearing old age. As the Crown Prince, he had waited too long for the day of ascension.

Recently, he finally saw hope.

John Parkinson was a bit curious. How could Prince Potter not know that the Queen had already recovered?

It seems the Queen intentionally hid this fact from the Royal Family members, perhaps wanting to surprise the family.

Looking at Prince Potter’s hopeful expression, John Parkinson felt reluctant to shatter his dream.

As for Prince Potter’s "request," saying John Parkinson wasn’t moved would be false.

From a long-term interest perspective, Prince Potter, as the Crown Prince, would eventually ascend the throne, and John Parkinson’s re-election as Prime Minister is imminent, tied to his personal career, so he had to take it seriously.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door, and a servant walked in.

"Prince Potter, Prime Minister, the dinner is about to start. The Queen has arrived outside the palace and is entering." The servant said.

Potter gave John Parkinson a look: "Remember what I said."

Then he walked out first.

The palace dinner was quite lively, with most of the Royal Family members present, gathered together.

They were all waiting for the Queen’s arrival.

Finally, the Queen came in, supported by Catherine.

Although supported by Catherine, the Queen appeared in good spirits, seemingly able to move swiftly even without assistance.

Earlier, the Queen had moved to the countryside villa to recover due to poor health, with reports of her serious illness causing much concern among the Royal Family members.

However, the Queen didn’t want them visiting her, expressing that she didn’t want the younger generation to see her in a vulnerable state, which was her dignity as the Queen.

Now the Queen’s vigorous appearance surprised all the Royal Family members.

Prince Potter, in particular, was a bit surprised. Ever since the Queen fell seriously ill and moved to the countryside for recovery, he was the most diligent one, frequently inquiring about the Queen’s condition, displaying an attitude of utmost concern.

This was the consistent impression Prince Potter gave to the external world: very filial, very respectful towards the Queen.

Prince Potter was surprised by the sudden improvement in the Queen’s health; how come he wasn’t aware?

At this time, the Royal Family members began greeting the Queen.

The Queen smiled broadly and gestured for everyone to sit.

"Is everyone here?" The Queen asked, "I’m very happy for the family reunion tonight. I have good news to share. During this period, I’ve been undergoing treatment at the countryside villa, but starting now, I’m announcing the end of treatment and moving back."

"I know that during my stay in the countryside, there were many rumors from outside, causing some unease for both the Royal Family and the nation. I’m moving back to counter those rumors."

"Though concerning the rumors, they can’t be blamed, as I was indeed seriously ill. If not for one person, I might not be sitting here now. I must thank that person, and tonight’s dinner, I’ve invited them."
