Salute to the General novel Chapter 568

The moment Penny questioned Nathan, everyone turned to him as one, looking at him with equally suspicious eyes as they waited for his answer.

To be able to summon the mayor of Channing and Major-General Wilson as reinforcements was really too awesome!

Everyone was curious as to how Nathan had pulled it off.

Nathan cracked a small smile and answered, "Since things have already gotten to this point, I guess I can only confess. I'm actually the General of the North. Mobilizing the SWAT team, military special forces, and the regular army is a piece of cake to me.”

What?

General of the North!

The Smiths were stunned, to say the least!

Penny was dazed in the beginning, but it quickly morphed into anger. She raised her hand to gently smack Nathan on his shoulder and nagged at him, "Nathan, can you be serious for just a second? How can you even joke at a time like this?"

Her entire family was shocked when they heard Nathan's answer.

However, when they heard what Penny said, they gradually came back to their senses.

They had previously done a background check on Nathan. The information they gathered had stated that he was a war veteran, but there was no sign of the word 'general' in there whatsoever!

Besides, Nathan had come looking for Penny the moment he was discharged from the army, and he had been staying at Penny's house ever since then, refusing to leave.

To say that he was a live-in son-in-law was putting it mildly. He was practically a useless man that depended on his wife's family!

Who would believe that he was the General of the North?

Suddenly, sneers of mockery shrouded Nathan as the Smiths ridiculed him, saying that he was pretentious and taking advantage of this situation to elevate his status.

A wry smile danced on Nathan's lips when he saw that no one believed him when he was in fact telling the truth.

All of them didn't believe his explanation and continued peppering him with the same question, asking how he had asked the mayor and Major General to offer help.

No one believed him, so he was struggling to formulate a response.

Just then, two jeeps that had the logo of East Bay roared close by.

After the engines were cut off, five men in navy uniforms hopped down. The one leading at the forefront was the captain.
