Salute To The General

Chapter 2287



Merwyn slowly sat down on the couch.

He didn't reach out for his cup of tea. Instead, he gave Nathan and Vernon a look and said, "I was supposed to attend an important cab meeting today when I heard that the General absolutely have to see me today. I didn't want to come at first, but I figured you might have something important to discuss, so I came."

Merwyn paused and looked at Nathan calmly. "Anyway, this had better be important. Or else I will report you to the military for disrupting me and my department's work!"

Vernon could tell that a storm was brewing beneath Merwyn's calm exterior.

Merwyn was his direct boss, whereas Nathan was just Channing's retired God of War.

He felt it necessary to help mediate the matter should Nathan and Merwyn get into an argument.

Hence, he quickly stood up in an attempt to pour oil over troubled waters before Nathan could even speak up.

"Haha. I'm guessing it must be something important. Why else would the General invite Mr. Huntington over with such short notice? But I guess the General must have failed to think things through before doing so and ended up disrupting Mr. Huntington's work. I hope you won't be offended by this, Mr. Huntington. Anyway, it's almost dinner time now, and dinner's on me tonight. So let's all sit down, have a drink, and talk."
