Salute To The General

Chapter 1935



Over at Cross Group chairman's office, Penny was having a hard time contemplating her next step.

She rested her head on her hand as she sat by the table.

Things had been topsy turvy for the past month. She spent her days worrying about Nathan, only to receive news that he had gone missing.

Just as she thought things could not get any worse, people started gossiping about Nathan being a deserter, and now the Goldsteins were waiting to deal her a final blow. She felt she was on the verge of breaking down under immense pressure.

Knock knock!

The door opened and Kylie came in with a cup of coffee in her hand. She walked over softly and place the cup on Penny's table.

"Are you okay?" she asked gently.

Penny cocked her head and smiled weakly at her. "I'm fine, don't worry about it.”

Kylie sighed as she looked at her wasted cousin. “Penny, I heard people saying Nathan was a deserter..."

Penny grunted and nodded in distress. "Yes, I'm aware of that. Those people are making baseless accusations to damage his good name."

"I know. Nathan will never do something like that. I believe in him. I'm just worried that he might have run into some trouble. The war has already ended in the North, but we still have no clue of his whereabouts," Kylie replied.
