Maurice said gratefully, "Nathan, I never thought that you're the commander-in-chief of the NorthArmy. I didn't know you're the God of War. Thank you so much for what you've done for us!"
Nathan replied softly, "Sir, I'm a good friend of Wyatt. We're brothers. I take your problems as mineas we are family. Please don't thank me for that will only distant our relationship and make me anoutsider."novelbin
Maurice agreed swiftly, "Yes, you're right."
Then, Maurice quickly turned to tell Hera to prepare a meal for their guests.
Hera instantly left for the kitchen.
On the other hand, Maurice and Candice remained in the living room with Nathan and his company.
Nathan tried to console Candice. He told her that love could not be forced, and she would meetsomeone better in the future.
Candice tucked a strand of hair behind her ears as she smiled and nodded. "General, after thisincident, I know what I'm going to do. I've applied to become a civil servant. I'll be focusing on mywork and on taking care of my parents for the next three years. I won't be thinking of gettinginvolved in any relationship for now."
Nathan nodded. "Good. As long as you are excellent, good things will follow."
Candice gratefully answered, "Thank you for your encouragement, General!"
Soon, the dishes were ready.
Maurice took out some white wine to serve Nathan and his men while he mumbled as he wasfeeling bad, "We don't really have anything good to offer you. I hope you don't mind."
Nathan smiled. "We're soldiers so you don't have to be so careful with us. All we need is to fill ourbellies. Quality is secondary."
After the meal, as Nathan had nine men with him, they would not fit in the Holland family's house.So, Nathan and his men bid them farewell.
Just as they stepped out of the house, a fleet of black SUVs sped toward them, and they were allLexus GX.
The leading Lexus was speeding right toward Nathan.
Nathan narrowed his eyes calmly and ignored it.
On the other hand, Colin's placed his hand quietly on the gun handle behind him. Even the EliteEight was prepared to attack at anytime.
When the SUV was a few meters away from Nathan, its driver abruptly stamped on the brakes.
Then, the right-hand man of the King of the North, Orlando Hicks, got down from the car nimbly.
Dozens of men also came down from the other cars.
With Orlando leading a group of twenty men, they hurried toward Nathan and got down on oneknee. They shouted in unison, "General, our master, Lucifer Leeroy, has come to know that the
General is in Bossania. We have prepared a banquet, and we hope that you will grace us with yourpresence."
Colin and the Elite Eight were all glaring at Orlando and his men.
It was evident that Orlando had the intention of showing off their power with the way they hadintentionally sped toward Nathan before stopping right in front of him. This is preposterous!
Colin and the others looked at Nathan, This banquet must be a trap set by The King of the North. Itwould be wise and won't matter much even if we reject
him.
Looking at Orlando and the others, Nathan's lips curled upward as he muttered, "Mr. Leeroy used tobe an honorable officer in the army. Although he is now retired, he has contributed greatly to thenation. Many men of the Leeroy family are currently serving in the army too. How can I possibly notattend the banquet? Lead the way."
Upon hearing his acceptance, Orlando stared at Nathan in surprise.
While it was true that Nathan was the General of the North, but Bossania had always been theterritory of the Leeroy family.
Recently, the battle between the old powers and the new powers in the North, such as Nathan, wasbecoming fiercer.
Nathan had astounding courage to only bring several guards with him when he was going to attenda banquet at the Leeroy family's residence.
Orlando stood up and replied, "This way, please. General."
Nathan tipped his head downward. "Thank you."
