Salute To The General

Garrett waved his hand and signaled for his family members to leave the ward.

They shuffled out of the ward, leaving Garrett and Nathan alone.

Garrett coughed a few times and panted heavily. It took a long time for his breathing to even out.

He drank some water before saying to Nathan, "You asked me why I helped Erwin to take Zion out of the picture.

I didn't answer you back then, but I can tell you about it now. Actually, I wanted to eliminate both Erwin and Zion. The sudden deterioration of my health threw a wrench into my plans.

Nathan was utterly shocked.

Garrett continued calmly, "I haven't managed to get rid of Erwin because of my worsening condition. I'm afraid you'll have to act yourself, Nathan."

After some hesitation, Nathan eventually replied, "I've discovered the Holmes family's misdeeds today, President Woods. They were utterly despicable, and I was just about to report them to you." "Go ahead, then. Tell me about it."
