Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1348

There was a trace of panic in the depth of Kenneth's eyes.

But he soon regained his composure as he snorted, "Well, since you're reluctant to confess, you leave me with no choice but to meet with the President and let him deal with you."

That night, Kenneth called the President, Hansel Windsor, to recount the progress of the investigation.

"Fion Xavior, a witness, has testified that Wyatt had a heated argument with Nathan prior to his death. The very night that he went missing was the same day that Nathan Cross threatened to take his life..."

Having delivered his report, Kenneth went on, "President, all the evidence is pointing toward Nathan Cross now. He should be the murderer who killed Wyatt."

"But he denied it and refused to confess."

"I implore you, President, to relieve him of his position as General of the North, and at the same time grant me the right to interrogate him under duress. I'll make him confess to his crimes."

Sitting on the couch in the study with the phone in his hand, Hansel's lips quirked up, but his tone was calm when he said, "Are you sure that it's Nathan Cross?”

"I'm not a hundred percent sure, but I'm pretty sure it's him," Kenneth said.

"Alright, I'll think about it," Hansel said.

Kenneth froze at his words. Why does he need to think about it? Could it be that he's concerned about Nathan Cross's unique status and is afraid to make a hasty move on him?

Perhaps he's planning to make some arrangements first before taking Nathan Cross down officially!

Holding that thought, Kenneth said with reverence, "I understand, President! I will await your command."

The news of the General being taken away by Kenneth soon spread like wildfire.

Everyone was gossiping behind closed doors that the General was doomed for killing Wyatt and offending the President, and that the General of the North would soon be replaced.

The news of Kenneth's suggestion that the President should dismiss Nathan from his post was met with an even greater uproar.

The next morning, Boris Tucker, one of the Nine Great Cabinet Members, had arrived early to meet with the President.

Born in the North, Boris had trained in the military in his early years. He took up a civilian post later and was eventually promoted. Now, he was one of the Nine Great Cabinet Members, which was a position of eminent authority.

Although he came from the desolate North, he had the elegance of the South in him in addition to the unique majesty of the people of the North.

Hansel instructed the servants to serve tea.
