Salute To The General

Chapter 279 Crippled

After exiting the detention center, Nathan declined Lincoln's offer to send them home, instead he drove

off with Penny and Kylie.

Nathan's car had just disappeared from view when Colin Dunne appeared.

Lincoln stood up straight and addressed Colin respectfully. "Colonel Dunne!"

"Send Henry Lancaster and the rest of his miserable men back to Alberesque. And remember, keep

Mr. Cross' identity a secret!" instructed Colin.

Lincoln nodded. "Yes, sir. I'll make sure your orders are followed."

Nathan, Penny, and Kylie drove back home.

On the way, Penny couldn't help but ask, "Nathan, since when did you know Deputy Chief Naas? If it

weren't for his help, we would've been in a lot of trouble."

Nathan gave a small smile. "Actually I hardly know Lincoln Naas at all.”

Penny's eyes shot wide in surprise. "Then why was he helping you so much?"

Locking Henry Lancaster and his men up and demoting Chase Li were technically justifiable decisions

that fell under his purview.

Hector in the same holding cell with gay men was clearly just to exact revenge for Nathan.
