Salute To The General

Chapter 1831



When Garrett saw that Nathan had killed the assassin, he couldn't help but ask, "Why didn't you keep him alive so that we can find out who sent him?"

Nathan plainly replied, "Because this matter has to be kept a secret."

Garrett was briefly stunned before regaining his senses quickly.

Now was a crucial time for the Presidential elections. Clifford and Zion were the favorites to win followed by Garrett.

It wasn't the right time for Garrett to show his strength as he wanted Zion and Clifford to face off with each other first.

Hence, his current strategy was to keep a low profile and pretended he was in the race just to make up the numbers. By throwing off his enemies, he hoped to reduce the animosity from Zion and Clifford's camps.

Or else, if they were aware of Garrett's ambition, they might decide to take him, the dark horse, out of the equation before their own showdown. Garrett understood the importance of keeping a low profile. Hence, he had been trying to stay out of the limelight recently.

Furthermore, he wasn't ready to let others know that he had the support of Nathan, Zach, and Lucas.
