Chapter 786: Growth
Ms. Tracy didn’t come to Eminence just to see Lynch—she had other business to attend to.
For example, she was planning to rename and relocate the York State Women’s Rights Protection Association to Eminence. Since Eminence was the seat of the federal government, having the organization’s headquarters here was essential for legitimacy.
Aside from fundraising, she was also scouting for a suitable location and connecting with local political and financial elites.
Having completed part of her plan, Ms. Tracy was in high spirits. She casually brought up Lynch’s story in Gephra.
To the average Federation citizen, a native-born Federal citizen being granted nobility in Gephra was a bizarre tale. Lynch had once again become the protagonist in an incredible story—just like many times before.
As their conversation drifted into more mundane topics, it signaled that Ms. Tracy was preparing to leave.
But just before she could say goodbye, Lynch spoke first. “I have a friend, Katherine. She’s about my age.”
“I know her!” Ms. Tracy nodded. “I’ve read reports about her. She’s very lucky.”
Unlike most who attributed her luck to circumstances, Ms. Tracy believed Katherine’s real fortune was knowing Lynch—and having dated him. Without his involvement, she would’ve never gotten an internship at the presidential palace. That wasn’t a place ordinary people could just enter, no matter what the media claimed.
