In the hotel, Councilman Roland had a brace around his neck as he watched the news, his face filled with anger.
As for why he was in a hotel, it was of course because Roland didn't have his own house in Sacramento.
Politicians are just politicians—not necessarily wealthy. Even though meetings require their presence in Sacramento, most state legislators usually reside in their own districts to stay closer to their constituents.
In other words, they're not rich.
Not everyone can do like Xiong En and buy a villa right where the meetings are held.
At that moment, Roland looked at his assistant and asked, "Xiong En was bailed out?"
"Yes, Congressman," the assistant replied.
Roland pointed at the television, "There were so many cameras recording him beating me! How can he possibly be out on bail!"
"You didn't die, did you?"
Roland glared at his assistant, "Do you realize what you're saying, you idiot!"
