Salute To The General
Chapter 2290

Merwyn was sure that it was just a coincidence. There's no way he's the Chief Military Governor.

He forced himself to calm down and stared at Nathan. "Nathan, switch your phone back on," he said loudly.

Nathan smiled. "You were the one who wanted me to turn it off. And now you're asking me to turn it on again? But sure, I will do as you say." With that, Nathan turned on his phone again.

Merwyn stared at the phone. He suddenly didn't have the courage to call the Chief Military Governor again.

Nathan smiled and turned to Merwyn. "What's wrong? I thought you wanted to file a complaint against me?"

Merwyn's hand started to tremble. It was as if he was holding on to a grenade instead of a phone.

Nathan's smirk infuriated him.

No. He couldn't be the Chief Military Governor. The Chief Military Governor is stationed in Brimmopolis and is such a busy man. Why would he be here in Channing?

With that thought in mind, Merwyn dialed the Chief Military Governor's phone number again.

He was gripped with terror as he made the call. Please don't let Nathan's phone ring. Please don't let Nathan's phone ring...

A moment later, Nathan's phone rang.

His ringing tone sounded like the toll of a death bell to Merwyn's ears.

At the same time, he felt as if a bullet had pierced right through his heart. He froze.

Is Nathan really the Chief Military Governor?

Merwyn turned to stare at Nathan in horror. He was sinking into a state of despair as helplessness overcame him.

Meanwhile, Nathan was staring at Merwyn with a smile. He looked at his phone and asked, "Merwyn, would you like me to pick up the call?"

"Yes," Merwyn answered hoarsely.

At the moment, he was like a drowning person desperately clinging to his last straw of hope. He was like a gambling addict with a penny left in his pocket, trying his best to regain everything he had lost. It'll be just a coincidence if the call is not from me. I can prove that he's not the Chief Military Governor.

Nathan smiled and answered the call.

As he did so, Merwyn's call went through.

Nathan held his phone to his ear and said quietly, "Merwyn, are you still not going to give up?"

Merwyn's hopes were dashed as Nathan's voice rang out.

Nathan was the Chief Military

Governor himself, second only to the king.

Merwyn felt his blood pressure rose, and he nearly blacked out.

Thump! He slumped to the ground and knelt in front of Nathan.

"C-Chief Military Governor!" he stuttered.

He's the Chief Military Governor!

Vernon, Oliver, and everyone else were dumbfounded.

Oh my goodness!! thought Nathan had been dismissed. Who would have thought that he's the Chief Military Governor?

Compared to Vernon's shocking discovery, Oliver had fear written all over his face. I'm done for. I shouldn't have treated him with disrespect. I'm guessing he has all the dirt on all of my wrongdoings. His legs gave way and he fell to his knees as well.

Nathan stared at the two men who were trembling with fear and drenched in sweat. "Merwyn, Oliver, aren't you guys supposed to be powerful people?" he said coldly.

"What happened to all that arrogance?

Why are you acting like such a coward now?"

Oliver and Merwyn knelt on the ground. They trembled and didn't dare say a word.

Nathan said coldly, "Well? Raise your heads and answer me."
