Salute to the General novel Chapter 1495

With a thunderous expression on his face, Boris returned home.

All the helpers could tell that he was in a bad mood, so they kept a distance away from him lest he directed his fury to them.

His son, Spencer, walked up to him and asked, "Dad, what happened? You seem unhappy.”

Boris replied angrily, "It's that old geezer Hansel again! He's about to retire, yet he still won't let me off the hook. He used Christopher's incident to threaten me and insinuated that I should retire so that he could let things slide."

Spencer was shocked and enraged at the same time. "Dad, did you agree to that?"

Boris snorted, "He can't possibly scare me! Of course I won't give up now, especially since I'm so close to becoming the President."

Spencer breathed a sigh of relief as he poured a cup of tea for Boris. "Dad, Hansel is getting old and he's gonna retire soon.

We just have to tough things out and wait until he steps down. When he does, you'll probably be the next-in-line for President, and then our family will have all the power in the world!"

Boris took a sip of tea and said in a concerned tone, "It's no doubt that we absolutely need to make it out alive, but it's not as easy as it seems! Hansel wants to finish us off in this period of time as well."

Spencer gaped in shock. "What?!"

Boris squinted and explained slowly, "Christopher's incident most likely happened because Hansel sent Nathan to hunt us down, but we're lucky that Christopher killed himself and made it impossible for them to track us. Besides that, Hansel had a private conversation with me just to hint that he will let me off the hook if I retire. That is enough reason to assume that if I refuse to retire, Hansel will make every effort to drag me down within the last few days of his presidency and instate his favorite disciple, Nathan, into the cabinet."

Spencer exclaimed in surprise, "Hansel wants to appoint Nathan as a member of the cabinet?”

Nathan is already a formidable general, so if he manages to get in the cabinet, Hansel would probably make him the next President!
