Salute to the General novel Chapter 318

A cold sweat drenched Yancy's back and he was trembling slightly. Despair and terror fought for dominance in his eyes.

His accomplice, Phil, had already been punished so harshly. He shuddered to imagine what would happen to him, the mastermind behind this incident. At this point, he was even considering death to be the better option.

His arm was in a sling from having been broken by Fabian, while there were bandages wrapped around his chest for his broken ribs. Pairing them up with the terrified look on his face, Nathan found himself staring at a rather pitiful-looking man.

Ultimately, Yancy was still a relative of Leah's, so he decided that he would let the man off easy this time. He uttered in a harsh tone, "I gave Phil a chance earlier, so I'll offer the same to you. Next time, I won't be so lenient!"

Delighted, Yancy exclaimed, "Thank you, Sir! Thank you! I'll be sure to warn my uncle and aunt not to be disrespectful to

you from now on."

Nathan was quick to correct him, "No, don't do that. I don't want my peaceful life with my family disturbed by anyone or anything. None of you are to reveal my identity, or you'll be tried for leaking a state secret."

The color drained from Yancy, Phil, and the other young men's faces. "Yes, si... I mean, Mr. Cross. We know what to do now."

"Begone," Nathan dismissed with a wave of his hand.

"Yes, sir!"

Everyone present straightened their posture and bowed towards Nathan before swiftly departing.

He had barely taken a few steps into the house when his family surrounded him.

Penny bombarded him with questions, her face concerned, "Nathan, we saw you hitting Phil through the windows. What did the military and police want with you?

What did they say? Did they give you a hard time?”

"Those were the leaders of the police and the military. They were righteous and stern, as they should be. They criticized Yancy and Phil for their actions and they've also apologized to me. After that, they left without much ado."

Relieved, she smiled at him. "That's good. I was afraid that they would gang up on you."

Benson and Leah were equally as happy. "Thank God those leaders were good men and knew right from wrong."

Standing slightly behind them, Kylie rolled her eyes.
