Salute To The General

Chapter 2061



Nathan and Penny dropped by the hospital first thing the next morning to visit Horatio.

Horatio lay in bed, his brows furrowed in anguish although he was fast asleep. It was a restless slumber as he subconsciously beat himself up for accepting the lowball offer for Wyland Huck's abstract painting.

Both Hansel and Camilla were present.

"My father had a hard time falling asleep last night; he only drifted off in the wee hours. Let's talk elsewhere so we don't wake him up," Hansel murmured.

Nathan nodded in agreement. "Alright."

The group exited the room and stood in the corridor.

"Nathan, have you found the painting?" Hansel cut to the chase.

Smiling, Nathan answered, "There has been news about it. I should be able to receive it later today. Don't worry, Mr. Windsor. I promise I'll return the painting to your father by today to ease his tortured mind."

Hansel nodded and heaved a sigh. "My father made a fool of himself this time. Sorry for troubling you, Nathan. Not only did my father sell the precious gift from you at the price of a trinket, but this incident also sent you running all over the place to recover the painting."
