Chapter 1347 Your Goal Is Just To Take Me Out

Time flew by fast. Soon, it was already the tenth day Nathan was brought back to help with theinvestigations of the case of Wyatt Windsor by Sergeant Greene.

The date was the 7th of August. Two more days from today, Nathan was supposed to stand at thewedding altar with Penny.

Although Penny had busied herself with the wedding arrangements together with her family, theworry that weighed on all of the Smiths got heavier day by day. On some nights, Penny would evencry herself to sleep.

There were a lot of rumors going around. Some had claimed that Nathan was a murderer, and wasnow arrested and done for.

Penny had tried many times to visit Nathan, but every time she knocked on the doors of the SecretService, they would reject her and say that Nathan was not to meet with anyone from outside at themoment.

Every time she could only return home disheartened and blindly wait for Nathan's return with herparents.

Frida advised Penny to suspend the setting up of the wedding ceremony temporarily, as she had ahunch that Nathan was in hot waters and with how things were going, it would still take some timebefore Sergeant Greene would let him off.

In response, Penny rejected Frida's suggestion without so much as a bat of an eye.

She muttered softly, "Nathan promised that he will definitely put the wedding ring on me himself onthe 9th of August! He is a man of his words, and I have faith that he will come back in time!"

At a secret location in Channing.

The small yard was particularly shielded from the hustle and bustle of the outside world, no onewould have guessed that there were dozens of hidden guards planted around the simple yard to thepoint that all of the residents in the vicinity were also the people of Secret Service in disguise.

Nathan had been staying here for the past couple of days.

At the moment, he was playing chess with Sergeant Greene.

Sergeant Greene seemed to be engaged in serious brainwork, whereas Nathan had a relaxed airhanging around him.

Bam!

Nathan gently knocked over a white piece on the chessboard and his lips curled up, "You've lostagain, Sergeant Greene!"

Kenneth looked at him and laughed bitterly, "I am totally in awe of the General's proficiency inchess."

At that moment, Hendrix, the assistant of Kenneth marched in with a few of their subordinates andyelled, "Sergeant Greene!"

Kenneth lifted his head, "Hendrix, you're

here."

Hendrix responded, "I have just returned from the Brimmopolis and this time, I have an importantwitness with me."

Witness?

Nathan knitted his brows slightly.

Kenneth, who was on a losing streak just now had been feeling miserable, but the light came backto his eyes as he glanced at Nathan. He took a sip of tea before asking impassively, "Hendrix, whois this witness that you're talking about?"

Hendrix answered, "It's Fion Xavier from the Xavier family."

"She was with Andy and the rest that night of the incident. The lot of them were drinking with WyattWindsor at the hotel."

Kenneth was puzzled, "Didn't we already talked to her previously?”

Hendrix replied, "Ms. Xavier revealed that because she was afraid of Nathan's status, she decidednot to say everything on her mind on the day of her interrogation.

However, she's willing to step out now to testify against Nathan."

Testify?

The corners of Nathan's lips curled up.

Kenneth responded, "To testify against Nathan about what?"

Hendrix replied, "According to Fion Xavier, Nathan killed Andy and made her beg for her life on theground. She'd also mentioned that Nathan had gotten in a heated argument with Wyatt."

"On the night of the incident, Wyatt had chided Nathan for having the intentions to kill his ownereven though he was a but pet brought up in their household."

"Then, Nathan shouted at Wyatt with a malicious intent, 'Do you really think I dare not end you?'"

Kenneth turned to Nathan and laughed mockingly, "Nathan, why didn't you described yourconversation with Wyatt Windsor as it had happened when we asked you to help with the

investigation previously?"

Nathan looked Kenneth in his eyes and muttered coolly, "Fion Xavier will never have the guts toframe me. This is all your idea, right?”

Kenneth's face dimmed as he scoffed, "Frame you?"

"Hahaha! Why do you think that I am framing you?”

"Nathan, the truth will always come to light in the end."

"All of the evidence now points to you. You are the one who murdered Wyatt Windsor! You'd betterconfess to your sins right now!"

"Or else, I will report everything to the President and he will give us his approval to officially put youunder interrogation."

Nathan still had his eyes fixated on Kenneth, "Are you someone's puppet, or are you simply tryingto replace a scapegoat to bear all the responsibilities so you can close the case of Wyatt'sdisappearance as soon as you can?"

Kenneth sneered, "I have no idea what you're talking about!"

"Since you have no intention of giving us a proper answer, the only thing I can do now is to ask thePresident for his advice. By that I mean I will request to be granted more authority so as to put youunder interrogation!"

Nathan replied with an edge in his tone, "I am now certain that someone had given you theinstruction to frame me. It made sense now, the reason why you haven't been able to discover anyleads to Wyatt's case was because you haven't been doing anything at all."

"You are in cahoots with the person responsible for Wyatt's death. Your goal is to take me out,right?"
