Salute to the General novel Chapter 1381

Soon, the men from both the Lillard family and the Langer family left the place too.

Nathan had also ordered Patrick and his soldiers to retreat.

In the shabby house, the only ones left were Nathan's men and Maurice's family.

Maurice said gratefully, "Nathan, I never thought that you're the commander-in-chief of the North Army. I didn't know you're the God of War. Thank you so much for what you've done for us!"

Nathan replied softly, "Sir, I'm a good friend of Wyatt. We're brothers. I take your problems as mine as we are family. Please don't thank me for that will only distant our relationship and make me an outsider."

Maurice agreed swiftly, "Yes, you're right."

Then, Maurice quickly turned to tell Hera to prepare a meal for their guests.

Hera instantly left for the kitchen.

On the other hand, Maurice and Candice remained in the living room with Nathan and his company.

Nathan tried to console Candice. He told her that love could not be forced, and she would meet someone better in the future.

Candice tucked a strand of hair behind her ears as she smiled and nodded. "General, after this incident, I know what I'm going to do. I've applied to become a civil servant. I'll be focusing on my work and on taking care of my parents for the next three years. I won't be thinking of getting involved in any relationship for now."

Nathan nodded. "Good. As long as you are excellent, good things will follow."

Candice gratefully answered, "Thank you for your encouragement, General!"

Soon, the dishes were ready.

Maurice took out some white wine to serve Nathan and his men while he mumbled as he was feeling bad, "We don't really have anything good to offer you. I hope you don't mind."

Nathan smiled. "We're soldiers so you don't have to be so careful with us. All we need is to fill our bellies. Quality is secondary."

After the meal, as Nathan had nine men with him, they would not fit in the Holland family's house. So, Nathan and his men bid them farewell.

Just as they stepped out of the house, a fleet of black SUVs sped toward them, and they were all Lexus GX.
