Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1659

The next day came.

Nathan stared at Colin in shock. “What did you say? Timothy's dead?”

The latter replied gloomily, “Yes. Timothy has just captured Weston and interrogated him for two consecutive days. Just when he's nearing a mental breakdown and is about to give in, Timothy got killed.”

A grim expression crossed Nathan's face. “Who killed him?”

Colin replied, “Accordingly, he got attacked in the middle of the night when going out to buy some cigarettes.”

He asked, “Has the culprit been caught?”

Colin shook his head.

Frowning, Nathan asked again, “What about Weston? Did he admit anything?”

He answered, “After Timothy got killed, Mr.

Tucker made an inquiry about it and ordered the police to release Weston.”

Nathan said coldly, “In other words, Boris has something to do with the attacks and wishes to wipe away all evidence?”

Lowering his head, Colin replied, “Before there's any concrete evidence, I don't dare to make any bold guesses.”

Nathan snorted coldly. “Even if there isn't any evidence now, the answer is already obvious. We just don't know if anyone else is involved as well.”

Colin reminded softly, “General, Boris is a highly-esteemed and powerful cabinet member. Even if you suspect that he has something to do with it, you can't deliberately single him out without sufficient evidence. If you do so, you might invite more trouble to yourself instead.”

He was right.

Although Nathan was a formidable General, the cabinet members had more authority than him. Only the President wielded more power than them.

Unfortunately, the President had fallen ill after a stroke and could not govern for now.

If he tried to target Boris without any evidence, he would be seeking trouble.

Nathan laughed coldly. “After my mentor fell ill, these people have become bolder. If they joined forces with foreign mercenaries to attack me, they might do something even crazier next time. My mentor is right. We must eliminate these evils, lest they lead Eurasia to ruins in the future.”
