Salute to the General novel Chapter 1605

In the White House in Brimmopolis, Hansel Windsor, the president of Eurasia, sat on his chair in his study room. His eyes were shut as he leaned back in his seat.

Had he fallen asleep, or was he merely thinking about something?

At that moment, there were two knocks on the door. Presently, he heard the sound of heels clicking against the floor.

It was the First Lady, Camilla Quinn.

She was wearing a gown with lilies embroidered on it and a pair of high heels. Her hair had been swept up in a high ponytail, which cascaded down on her shoulders like a waterfall and made her look elegant and beautiful.

The moment she stepped into the room, Hansel opened his eyes and asked in a dull voice, “Have Boris and Clifford left?”

Camilla smiled bitterly. “They just had an audience with me in the reception hall. I had to listen to them go on for two hours while pretending to sip my tea. They finally went home after I promised to do my best to help them.”

Hansel asked, “What were they here for,

Unhurriedly, Camilla went to arrange and put away the papers and files on her husband's desk. “One of them blamed Nathan Cross for his son's death, while the other one accused the same Nathan of killing his daughter.” “Both of them are of the opinion that Nathan abused his powers to kill innocent lives. They want you to remove Nathan from his position and to punish him severely for his crimes.”

Hansel frowned. “Nathan seems to be in quite a spot of trouble with Boris and Clifford these days.”

“Nathan is a man of honor. Of course he wouldn't get along well with those sly foxes,” Camilla replied.

“Nathan is one of your charges. Back then, it was you who opposed all opinions and promoted Nathan to the position of General of the North.”

“Now that you're nearing the end of your presidential term, the two of them are trying to get Nathan out of the way so they can put one of their own men into the position of General of the North.”

“Besides, you sent Nathan and Hailey to investigate Boris, which made Boris and the others regard Nathan as a thorn in their eyes. Of course they would want him out of the picture.”

Hansel's face clouded over gloomily at the mention of the investigation into Boris's activities.
