Salute to the General novel Chapter 1347

Time flew by fast. Soon, it was already the tenth day Nathan was brought back to help with the investigations of the case of Wyatt Windsor by Sergeant Greene.

The date was the 7th of August. Two more days from today, Nathan was supposed to stand at the wedding altar with Penny.

Although Penny had busied herself with the wedding arrangements together with her family, the worry that weighed on all of the Smiths got heavier day by day. On some nights, Penny would even cry herself to sleep.

There were a lot of rumors going around. Some had claimed that Nathan was a murderer, and was now arrested and done for.

Penny had tried many times to visit Nathan, but every time she knocked on the doors of the Secret Service, they would reject her and say that Nathan was not to meet with anyone from outside at the moment.

Every time she could only return home disheartened and blindly wait for Nathan's return with her parents.

Frida advised Penny to suspend the setting up of the wedding ceremony temporarily, as she had a hunch that Nathan was in hot waters and with how things were going, it would still take some time before Sergeant Greene would let him off.

In response, Penny rejected Frida's suggestion without so much as a bat of an eye.

She muttered softly, "Nathan promised that he will definitely put the wedding ring on me himself on the 9th of August! He is a man of his words, and I have faith that he will come back in time!"

At a secret location in Channing.

The small yard was particularly shielded from the hustle and bustle of the outside world, no one would have guessed that there were dozens of hidden guards planted around the simple yard to the point that all of the residents in the vicinity were also the people of Secret Service in disguise.

Nathan had been staying here for the past couple of days.

At the moment, he was playing chess with Sergeant Greene.

Sergeant Greene seemed to be engaged in serious brainwork, whereas Nathan had a relaxed air hanging around him.

Bam!

Nathan gently knocked over a white piece on the chessboard and his lips curled up, "You've lost again, Sergeant Greene!"

Kenneth looked at him and laughed bitterly, "I am totally in awe of the General's proficiency in chess."

At that moment, Hendrix, the assistant of Kenneth marched in with a few of their subordinates and yelled, "Sergeant Greene!"

Kenneth lifted his head, "Hendrix, you're

here."

Hendrix responded, "I have just returned from the Brimmopolis and this time, I have an important witness with me."

Witness?

Nathan knitted his brows slightly.

Kenneth, who was on a losing streak just now had been feeling miserable, but the light came back to his eyes as he glanced at Nathan. He took a sip of tea before asking impassively, "Hendrix, who is this witness that you're talking about?"
