Hailey was dumbfounded when she saw the emblem of the Leeroy family from the North.
She said with a low voice, "The King of the North, Leeroy family is actually involved! General, does this mean we can immediately take action against the Leeroy family?”
Nathan shook his head and stated calmly, "No. First of all, the Leeroy family is extremely powerful. There are Leeroy family's younger generation and followers throughout the military. It's simply a stretch if we're going to strike against the King of the North, Lucifer Leeroy with just these few people alone. Do you believe that Lucifer Leeroy can casually cover up this matter?"
Hailey frowned when she realized that she had been too naive.
She lowered her voice and asked, "Then what should we do now?"
Nathan narrowed his eyes and said, "Since Lucifer came for me, I'll have to head to the North and play his game with him."
That was true.
With the way things unfolded, everything must've been done by the King of the North, Lucifer Leeroy to snatch Nathan's position as the General of the North.
Since it was a fight between the old and new nobles of the North, Nathan had to return and deal with it.
Nathan needed to punish them too in order to give the President a satisfactory explanation.
But if Nathan were to return to the North, it meant that his vacation needed to end earlier than planned.
Hailey stared at Nathan and said softly, "General, I heard that your wedding is tomorrow. But this situation is so urgent. Will you be postponing your wedding?"
Nathan shook his head, "No. I'll head to the North immediately after my wedding."
Going to the North meant that he would be returning to the battlefield.
Once on the battlefield, life and death were unpredictable. Nathan didn't want to leave any regrets.
He promised to give Penny a grand wedding and even promised her that she would be the most beautiful and happiest bride.
That was why his wedding tomorrow had to happen as planned.
It needed to be a really grand wedding too.
Nathan didn't return home that night. Instead, he and Hailey sent Wyatt's body back to Brimmopolis.
Those in Brimmopolis had already gotten news of what had happened. They knew that Nathan and Hailey had found Wyatt's body and were sending his body back overnight.
It was only slightly past dawn when Nathan and Hailey arrived at the
Brimmopolis Airport. The President, Hansel Windsor, and First Lady, Camilla Quinn didn't show up.
