Comeback Of The Adored Heiress

Chapter 1310

Chapter 1310:

Rocco had just stepped out of the restroom when he heard Elton’s words. His steps faltered, and his gaze hardened.

“From the moment you walked in and opened your mouth, I told you—I’m not a general anymore. Denby personally trained you. How can you be so forgetful?”

Elton straightened slightly, resting his hands on his knees.

“I guess I’m just used to calling you that. You were my senior, after all. If I’ve done something wrong, go ahead and reprimand me—but don’t pin it on the commander. I wouldn’t dare let him take the blame for it.”

To the outside world, Elton and Denby always presented a united front. But here, in front of Rocco, Elton was deliberately drawing a line between them. A calculated move—one Rocco caught onto instantly. Rocco had once commanded an independent regiment, a man who had matched Denby in both rank and power.

He had seen it all.
