Salute To The General

Chapter 2286



Just then, Vernon's secretary made his way into his office. Vernon glared at his secretary and ordered him to boil some water. Soon, the tea was ready.

Vernon poured half a cup of tea for Nathan, Colin, and himself before smiling. "Please, General Cross, Captain Dunne."

"After you!" Nathan smiled.

"Thank you, Mr. Vernon." Colin picked his cup up.

The three of them took a small sip.

"This is good!" said Nathan.

"It's not bad, right? I'll get my secretary to prepare some for you if you like it so much." Vernon smiled.

Nathan shook his head. "No, I shouldn't steal this from you. Vernon, I'll be happy to just drink this every once in a while. There's no way I could bring myself to take it after drinking the tea that you brew for me."

Being an observant guy, Vernon could tell that Nathan really didn't want the tea leaves.

Hence, he decided not to dwell on the topic anymore. Instead, he asked casually, "General, are you really here today for a cup of tea? Is there really nothing else?"

Nathan smiled. "That's right. I'm merely here for a cup of tea. However, I did invite two others over to join us.
