Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 2430

"Thank you for your concern, President Woods. I'm still young, so I can still serve the country for twenty more years," Nathan replied cheerfully.

Garrett laughed. "I remember you're only thirty years old. Twenty years later, you'll be fifty. That's still young. General Quillen is only fifty this year, and he's still serving the country. You can't retire at fifty. Hmm, why don't you retire when you're eighty? That sounds great. Ha!"

Nathan replied nonchalantly, "Once a soldier, always a soldier. No matter what age I retire, I shall put on my uniform and go to battle whenever

the country needs me.'

"That's great!” Garrett praised.

Nathan smiled without saying anything.

The President had invited him to the White House to have tea together. He knew the usually busy President wouldn't have extended an invitation for no reason.

Besides, the President had mentioned Cayden casually during their exchange earlier.

Garrett must've summoned me here because Cayden and I have created a commotion.

Indeed, Garrett changed the topic naturally. "Oh, talking about General Quillen. I suddenly recalled someone telling me that you had a conflict with him recently?”

Nathan flashed a bitter smile. "It has reached your ears?"

"Brimmopolis is smaller than you imagine, so every little matter is known to everyone. Of course, I heard about it," Garrett explained with a smile.

Nathan asked, "President Woods, what did you hear?"

Garrett said, "The rumor circulating in public

states that the Chivalrous God of War and the God of War disliked each other, for they were from different generations. They had been at odds recently."

Nathan merely chuckled without saying anything.

Garrett continued, "The Great Cabinet reported to me in private that the Chief Military Governor was displeased at how General Quillen parachuted in and divided his power. Thus, Nathan took action and went against the Quillen family.”

Nathan asked, "President Woods, what do you think?"
