Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1346

In the study room of the Royal Palace in Brimmopolis.

Once again, Camilla Quinn knocked on the door of his husband's study and entered the room. She noticed that the porridge and the side dish she brought in earlier was left untouched.

Hansel Windsor had his eyes shut and his back leaning against the chair; it was unknown whether he was sleeping or just having a shut-eye.

Camilla Quinn picked up the cape next to him and draped it over him.

All of a sudden, Hansel opened his eyes and Camilla was taken aback.

Camilla patted her chest and said, "I thought you were asleep! Why didn't you eat any of my porridge? Do you think you'll be able to go on like this for long?"

Hansel talked in his own pace, "I'm fine!”

Camilla was concerned about her husband's wellbeing, "You're not the only one who is affected by what happened to our son. What use is there by locking yourself up in this place?"

Hansel muttered calmly, "I am waiting.”

His answer piqued Camilla curiosity and she asked, "What are you waiting for?"

Hansel did not say a word.

Camilla knew his silence meant that he wasn't going to reveal to her whatever he was waiting for, so she kept her inquiries to herself.

Instead of questioning her husband, Camilla said to him, "Greene took Nathan in earlier in the evening. He had also listed Nathan as the prime suspect. My guess is that he was unable to find out anything about the culprit and has resorted to make Nathan the scapegoat."

Hansel merely kept his silence upon hearing that.

Camilla continued, "Nathan asked someone to leave me a message. He

wants me to tell you something.”

Hansel was nonchalant, "He sure has many useful connections, I can't believe he's still able to send you a message even after getting detained by Kenneth."

Camilla furrowed her brows slightly, "Nathan is the disciple you are most proud of. I have faith that he is not the one who has killed our son."

Hansel asked calmly, "What did he say?"

Camilla answered, "Nathan wanted to tell you that, whoever that recommends a candidate for the title of General of the North is the person who has harmed our son."

Hansel widened his eyes at her wife's words. For the first time in forever, shock was apparent on his face.

Camilla uttered with vileness, "Whoever that gives you that suggestion is the mastermind.”

Hansel replied, "Exactly. I think in a few days' time, the mastermind will show themselves to me like the fool that they are."

Camilla followed up with a few questions, "Then what about Nathan? How do we deal with him? Shouldn't we let him go since he's innocent?"

Hansel responded, "Although he did not kill my son, my son is dead because of him.

Just lock him up for a while."

"We will release him once the mastermind show themselves."

"I don't want my son to die without a closure. The person who killed my son must pay the price."

"I don't like killing, but Nathan was born in the battlefield. So he shall be my sword."

"I have decided to burden him with the task of avenging our son."
