Chapter 1254 The Pirates Were Wiped Out Because of You
"I can't believe it's really you, Penny. It's been five or six years since we last met, right?"
Penny was stunned when she saw the man who was dressed in full military uniform and bore theinsignia of the Major General. It took quite a while for her to recognize him. "Oh, you are NeelanColeman from college!"
Neelan, who was wearing the Major General uniform, said while smiling, "Looks like this Ms. Smithstill remembers me. It's an honor to be remembered by such a pretty lady."
Penny smiled. Then, she noticed Neelan's epaulette. "Mr. Coleman, it's only been a few years sincewe last met. Not only did you join the military, but you've also become a commanding officer now?"Penny could not suppress her curiosity.
Neelan laughed, "I am only a Major General now, a general with the least rights. It's not worthbringing up.”
Penny had always been respectful towards soldiers. She said immediately, "A Major General is alsoa general, and to be a commanding officer is an impressive feat. Neelan Coleman, you really are ayoung and promising man. All our classmates are going to be proud of you!”
Neelan laughed, "I am only carrying out my duty by serving the public."
Penny felt that Neelan had changed a lot over the years.
During their time in college, Neelan was well-known for being a rascal. He would borrow moneyfrom some of his classmates and fail to pay it back. He even committed petty theft and fraud.
Penny was overwhelmed by Neelan's drastic change. She chuckled, "You are indeed acommanding officer now. You've matured a lot in terms of personality and your depth of thinking."
"Oh, right! Why did you come here? Are you on duty?"
Neelan shook his head and laughed, "No, I am here just to meet you."
Penny was confused. "You came here just to see me?"
Neelan grinned, "Yes. Remember how I borrowed money from some of my classmates years ago? Icouldn't afford food at that time and borrowed two hundred from you. I haven't had the chance toreturn it to you until now.”
Penny giggled, "I have completely forgotten about that.”
Neelan said loudly, "I have always kept this on my mind, even when I was in the military. I wanted toreturn the favor and repay your kindness."
"Not long ago, I heard that the goods in your company had been frequently robbed by pirates, andthey even went to your company to extort money."
"After knowing this, I got help from the marine military to exterminate the pirates from Odysseus."
Both Penny and Kylie widened their eyes.
Penny asked him in shock, "What? The pirates were wiped out because of you? And you did it formy sake?"
Neelan straightened his back and said, "Of course. You lent me a helping hand when I was introuble. Besides, you are the most beautiful classmate I have in college. I have always rememberedyour kind heart and beauty."
"After knowing the actions of Logan from Odysseus, I was irritated and decided to wipe them allout."
"I went to great lengths for a pretty woman hahaha..."
Penny was stupefied.
However, rage was growing within Kylie.
Kylie stared at Neelan. She almost could not keep her rage in.
The truth was, the extermination of Demon's Lair was carried out by Kylie's brother-in-law, who hadmobilized the marine force. However, Neelan was the one who got all the credit.
At that moment, there was deep suspicion that Neelan was lying. Kylie also suspected that Neelanwas lying about being a Major General.
Neelan was tall and strong, so he seemed befitting of the military uniform he donned.
Kylie peeked at the few soldiers who were standing behind Neelan. She immediately noticed thatsomething was off.
Although they were trying hard to stand tall, none of them carried the aura of a real soldier.
Besides, attentive as she was, Kylie observed that some of these soldiers had ear piercings whilesome even had hair that was longer than the standard length allowed in the military.
This was not how a soldier on duty should look like!novelbin
Kylie squinted her eyes. She was certain that Neelan and the soldiers behind him were bluffing.They might have seen the news on television and disguised themselves as soldiers to scam Penny.
After all, Penny was the chairman and president of the Cross Group. If Penny were scammed, hecould make loads of money from her.
Nevertheless, judging from how Neelan claimed that everything he did was for Penny, it waspossible that he was also interested in Penny's beauty aside from money.
Now that she thought about it, Kylie fumed with anger.
She sat on a chair and pretended to be on her handphone. She surreptitiously took a few photos ofNeelan and sent them to Nathan.
She also sent a message to Nathan detailing all that had happened up to this point.
