Salute To The General

Jarek was holding onto two files in the hotel.

One was Nathan's, and the other was Penny's.

There was barely anything in Nathan's file, but Penny's file had dozens of documents in it.

It was unfortunate that he could not get more details about Nathan.

All he knew was that Nathan used to be the commander-in-chief of the North Army and that he was now mostly at home. Most of the information in the files were the records of the battles Nathan used to be in.

Jarek narrowed his eyes before muttering, "This guy has got a long list of achievements in the army. He must have taken credit for many of his subordinate's achievements. Why else would his list be so elaborated?"

He then threw Nathan's file aside in disdain before reading Penny's file.

The moment he opened Penny's file and saw the photo of her in her work outfit, his brows raised.

Isn't she too beautiful? She's the bestlooking woman I've ever seen!

Jarek finally realized why Penny was called the goddess of Eurasia's corporate world. Her looks, figure, and demeanor made her out to be the perfect woman.

In the photo, Penny had both the innocence of a young woman and the feminine qualities of a mature woman.

Jarek's lips curled.

A plan had formed in his head. Once he got rid of Nathan, Penny would become a widow.
