My Husband, Warm The Bed novel Chapter 1504

"Someone had to leave the team because of me? Wow, I've really never expected that you would think so lowly of the Chatterton Town military. Do you think that Colonel Brown would expel someone because of his son? If so, why did you join the military like your whole life depended on it?" Levi glanced at everyone and asked, "Monique Zellweger, if you have the evidence to prove that I took over your comrade's place, then show it to everyone now. If not, please think twice before you speak."

Levi's words were reasonable and no one had the evidence to prove that Levi had stolen the spot too. More importantly, Colonel Brown is a man of good repute. Everyone knew that the Chatterton Town military would only look at one's capabilities, not their identities. Anyone who was capable could work their way up, and replacing the Colonel himself was not something impossible.

All these years, the military officers in Chatterton Town made all their way up to the top through their own hard work. Most of them came from ordinary families, and this was an unprecedented scene anywhere else in the country. Hence, the citizens saw the opportunity to enter the Chatterton Town military, so many of them were rushing to get enlisted.

It was widely known for decades that Neil was a man of good repute. However, it would not be surprising if he were to make it an exception for his only son. Therefore, Monique and the others believed that the departure of their comrade must have something to do with Levi. Otherwise, that comrade wouldn't have left Red Eagle right before Levi joined the team.

Perhaps Levi had seen right through his comrades, so he added, "You'd better not talk nonsense, Monique Zellweger. As a soldier, you should take responsibility for every word you say."

Levi had never heard anything about him taking over someone's place in the team. However, he firmly believed that he was not the reason why that person left the team. He knew his father too well. Neil was an impartial man, he would never mix business with private affairs.

Monique was rendered speechless.

Levi was right. None of them had evidence to back up Monique's accusation. Moreover, they were all official members of Red Eagle now. As qualified soldiers, they should be responsible for their own words and actions.

Hence, everyone on the bus tried to ease the situation. One of them said, "We all know how everyone in the military perceives Colonel Brown. Let's not talk about this anymore, okay?"

Levi said, "No, we can talk about it, but just don't talk about it behind other people's backs. As qualified soldiers, we must be responsible for our own words. If you have any questions about your comrade's departure, you should ask your superiors directly. I believe that they will be able to give you an answer,"

Someone then said, "We did ask, but they refused to give us an answer."

It was precisely because their superiors had not given them an answer that they suspected Levi was the cause.

Levi did not know what to say.

The superiors refused to give them an answer?

Didn't Neil always say that it was important to be transparent and accountable to his subordinates?

Could it be that Neil had really expelled someone so that Levi could take over his place?

Levi had doubts in his heart, but he still refused to give in. He said, "If that's the case, you guys should give our superiors some more time. When the time is right, I'm sure that they will let us know about what really happened."

In fact, everyone in the team saw how capable Levi was. Hence, there were no reasons for them to dwell on this matter. Hence, all of them left the matter behind them and started talking about how happy they were to see their family again.

After leaving the training camp in the deep mountains and finally arriving downtown, all of them separated ways and went home respectively.

The first thing that came into Levi's mind was not his parents, but the beautiful girls that he had been missing, including Vanessa. The reason why he was sent to the army was partially because of Vanessa, so how could he forget about her?
