In particular, Rachel and Zander had witnessed Sean’s meteoric success and could not accept his
current predicament.
Rachel could imagine how any outsider like them felt about Sean’s situation.
As the party involved, how would Sean feel then, compared to them?
“Get up.
“It’s bad if Willow sees this.”
Sean shook his head slightly and motioned at Rachel to get up again.
“Yes…”
Rachel replied in acknowledgment before standing up with some reluctance.
“How much do you know about that year?”
Sean went straight to the point as he looked at Rachel and asked.
“Commander, we have not heard from you since your last battle.
“The higher–ups explained to us that you had been badly wounded and needed to rest and leave the
army for a while.
“But your men didn’t listen. They even defied imperial orders for you.”
Rachel stood up straight and briefed Sean carefully.
“And then?”
Sean nodded slightly.
Zander told him roughly the same thing, but not in too much detail.
As an intelligence officer in the army, Rachel had the opportunity to know more.
“It was later announced that Blaze was appointed acting commander and would take over your position
for the time being.
“Two years have passed, and Blaze has taken over your position permanently.”
Rachel explained carefully to Sean.
“What a good subordinate Blaze is.”
Sean shook his head with a smile that carried a hint of self–mockery.
“Commander, Blaze is a smoother talker than you.”
“When you were in command, you never tried to curry favor with others. Blaze is just the opposite. He
maintained good relations with others. You can say he has everything going his way.
“That’s why he was made permanent so quickly.”
Rachel sighed gently, her tone full of mixed feelings.
“Yes, if he weren’t such a smooth talker, how could he have deceived me?” Sean smiled and nodded,
but a chill flickered in the depths of his eyes.
“Deceived?”
Rachel froze slightly, wondering what Sean meant.
However, she dared not ask questions.
“Commander, Commander Blaze is good at getting along with people, but he’s not as good at leading
an army as you are.
“In the past two years, we have been losing battles so much that we have retreated within the border.
“The land you recovered is once again in the hands of the enemy.”
Rachel let out a long sigh as she said this.
“I can’t bear to see those brave warriors give their lives in vain.
“So I was disheartened and left the army.”
Rachel shook her head slowly, her eyes full of unwillingness.
It was not only her but also Zander and the soldiers who followed Sean.
They had followed Sean and tasted the joy of victory, so they could not take the pain of losing.
“Let’s not talk about that just yet.
“You were in charge of intelligence, so you must know a lot.
“I have something I want to ask you.”
Sean waved his hands and looked seriously at Rachel.
“Commander, ask away.”
Rachel straightened up, replied respectfully, and stood by.novelbin
“Sean, Rae? Are you guys done?”
“Just then, Willow’s voice suddenly came from outside the door.
You could tell by her voice how worried she was right now.
“Well…”
Rachel looked over at Sean for advice.
“I’ll talk to you later.”
Sean waved his hand and yelled at the door, “Willow, come on in.”
The door was quickly pushed open and Willow and Lexie stepped in.
“Sean, Rae, you…”
Willow had a worried look in her eyes.
She was afraid Rachel would say something bad to Sean.
“It’s okay. Rachel asked me to treat you. well.”
Sean shook his head with a smile and explained casually.
“Huh?”
When Sean said that, Willow and Lexie could not help but widen their eyes.
Rachel said that to Sean?
Willow and Lexie glanced at each other before looking at Rachel in disbelief.
“Ahem…”
“Willow, I was talking to Co… Lennon… Lennon…
Rachel uttered Lennon several times, but still dared not call Sean by his name.
“Did you forget? My name is Sean.”
Sean glanced at Rachel and spoke nonchalantly.
“Yes… I was just talking to Sean.
“I think you could date each other first.”
Rachel calmed herself down and looked calmly at Willow.
Willow blinked again at that. She could not help feeling a surge of joy.
