Salute to the General novel Chapter 1725

At 49 years old, Garrett Woods was the youngest member of the Great Cabinet. He was deemed a pragmatic and aspiring leader who kept a very low profile.

Prior to his cabinet appointment, he had served as the Governor of the North. During his tenure, he put an end to the riots in the North, restored law and order, and greatly enhanced its security. The agriculture and manufacturing industries flourished and attained unprecedented growth. Quality of life was significantly improved.

When he relinquished his position as the Governor of the North to join the Great Cabinet, people of the North filled the streets and sent him off in tears.

Back then, Nathan was a new addition to the

North Army. He had seen Garrett's caliber and had witnessed the results of his work. Hence, Nathan thought very highly of him.

Though he respected Garrett very much, their paths rarely crossed. This was because one of them served on the frontier battlefield whereas the other was in the cabinet.

Never in a million years did Nathan imagine he would run into Garrett's wife and daughter, Paisley Lauren and Maisy Woods, at the supermarket!

Paisley also learned that the young man standing before her with a muscular physique and twinkling eyes was the General of the North, Nathan Cross.

However astonished they were to have met one another coincidentally, the one who was most shocked had to be Benny.

Leveraging on his wealth and connections with fellow gang members in the underworld, he had been oppressing any poor soul who was in his way.

Alas, he tasted his own medicine by offending the General of the North as well as the wife of a cabinet member.

The Captain bawled him out. “You have some nerve to fight the General and to lay a finger on Mrs. Woods.”

Hearing that, Benny could not hold himself together and collapsed to the ground.

He was drenched in his own cold sweat while begging for mercy in a trembling voice. General, Mrs. Woods, it's all my fault. I was ignorant and I've offended you badly. Please forgive me.

Please let me go just this once!”

Nathan replied coldly, “Dream on! You were acting like you're above the law. From cutting the line to being an arrogant savage, your actions were abhorrent to all. What's the purpose of law enforcement if we let you off the hook after you've said a few pathetic words of apology?”
