Xander passed out after he vomited blood. Liam stood guard outside with a group of Lanes. They were apprehended in a matter of seconds.
Everyone could see that the Lane family was doomed this time.
Being captured by the military was not like being captured by someone else.
It was the end of the family with a hundred year legacy.
When Nathan saw that the Lane family and the rest were held captive, he said to the audience with a smile, "Everyone, something upsetting happened today. However, I don't like to keep a high profile. Neither do I want to bring troubles to my family and life because of my identity. I wish you will not talk about this when you go back. Please do not reveal my identity too, thank you."
With a strict gaze, Darius glared at everyone present. "The General's identity is top-secret. If anyone dares to spread it, he will be guilty of treason!"
Everyone was stunned when they heard it.
They decided they would definitely not mention what happened today or reveal Nathan's identity.
When Nathan saw that Penny was drunk, he had no plans of staying any further.
He and Kylie helped Penny, who was sprawled across the table, up and left.
After returning to the hotel, Nathan brewed a cup of tea for his wife.
Soon, she woke up gradually and with lingering drunkenness, she asked, "Nathan, Kylie, are we still at the Wates family's wedding?"
Kylie smiled. "We are back at the hotel, Penny."
Nathan chastised, "Why did you drink so much? You know you can't hold your alcohol well. You were completely drunk earlier."
Penny's alcohol tolerance was quite average. She hardly got drunk. Occasionally, she would drink some wine. However, she rarely drank liquor.
