“Get back here right now! Do you know…”

Asher’s mind blanked out on the rest of his commander’s rant.

All he could hear was a loud buzzing noise as if someone were drilling right next to his ears.

He slowly turned to stare at Kingsley with wide eyes. “The call you made just now… You were really calling the regional command…”

During the call, Kingsley had said to punish Asher for disrespecting the General.

Everyone had thought he was just bluffing.

No one thought it could really happen.

Now, Asher was actually being punished.

Asher’s knees wobbled, and he stumbled back to his seat. Dejection painted his face as he said, “Kingsley, you should have told us earlier that you are well-connected…”

“I did, but none of you believed me.” Kingsley shrugged. “Didn’t you also say the only people I know in the regional command are the kitchen hands?”

Asher was in tears.

He glared at Zachary who was still sprawled out on the floor.

If it had not been for his incendiary statements, Asher would not be in such dire straits!

Kingsley glanced at his watch.

“Platoon Leader Larson, if I remember correctly, you must report back to your company within two hours of notice of any punishment. Is that not so? If you’re late, things will be worse for you.”
