Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 2560

Halfway to Channing, Sage informed Nathan of the latest news.

After the intelligence department's urgent investigation, they found out that the Ariarican army was indeed behind the kidnapping. Moreover, Jessica, who had recently come to Eurasia, was involved in the incident.

Nathan said into the phone's receiver in a flat voice, “Are you certain that Jessica is involved in this?”

Sage answered, “All the clues point to Jessica's involvement. However, due to her unique identity, we can't make a rash move against her before getting concrete evidence.”

Nathan uttered, “All I need to know is whether or not she's involved. You don't need to concern yourself with other things. Where is she right now? She hasn't left the country, has she?”

Sage responded, “Jessica and her men are at Alberesque Airport right now. They're about to take their private aircraft back to Ariarica.”

Nathan said, “Give my order to the personnel at the airport and stop them from flying.”

Sage replied, “But Jessica is Ariarica's foreign minister, and we don't have concrete proof of her involvement right now. Moreover, the people at the airport found no signs of Mrs. Cross and Ms. Smith when they checked through Jessica's team. I'm afraid that the people at the airport would have a hard time stopping Jessica's plane from taking flight.”

His tone turning frigid, Nathan said, “Have the people at the airport warn Jessica that if she dares to take flight, the South Army will strike her plane down with a missile.”

A rare look of shock crossed Sage's face, but since it was an order from the Chief Military Governor, he dared not go against it. Moreover, he could sense that Nathan was truly enraged after hearing about Penny and Queenie's kidnapping.

Thus, he swiftly replied, “Understood. I will make the arrangements according to your instructions, sir.”

Nathan ended the call. He then instructed Colin, “Tell the pilot to change our course and head to Alberesque instead.”

“Yes, sir.”

At Alberesque Airport, Jessica's plane was about to take off.

As Jessica buckled her seatbelt, she asked her subordinate, “Eren, how are things going on Jemma's end?”

A man with blond hair and blue eyes replied with a smile, “Ms. Pattinson, the Wasp Special Attack Unit that Lorcan Hoult is leading has successfully kidnapped Penny and Queenie. With Jemma and Lorcan leading the team, they are now bringing them away from Eurasia through secret channels. They would probably reach Ariarica about the same time as our plane do."

Jessica nodded in satisfaction. “Very good. Tell the pilot to take off and leave this d*mn place.”

Eren replied, “Of course, Ms.

Pattinson.”

Just as their plane was about to enter the runway, sirens sounded outside. In the next moment, a large number of military cars, police cars, and various other government sanction vehicles had the plane surrounded.

As a matter of fact, there were over a hundred vehicles around the plane.

Soon, countless batches of soldiers, police, and members of the Secret Service in suits came down from the vehicles.
