Female Novel
Chapter 1118
Joyce stared blankly at the TV, and on Otis' shoulder, his badge shone brightly.
After Otis' brief remarks, a senior officer took over for Otis and began the main briefing.
After a brief appearance, Otis retired to the background.
The senior officer elaborated that the military was in an unprecedented crisis - Ms. Cecelia had a
sudden accident and was dying, and the general had a heart attack after being informed of the bad
news and was currently receiving emergency treatment.
Since there was no leader within the military, Otis, the current highest-ranked officer, shall take over the
management from General Ralph.
The new leadership team would be quickly established within two days to ensure that the national
defense security would not be affected in any way.
In addition, the military would continue to maintain its freedom and independence, it would not interfere
in the president's political affairs, it would continue to take the safety of the nation as its top priority, and
it would not affect the lives of the people, so all the citizens could rest assured.
As Joyce listened, the images in front of her seemed to be spinning, and the sound coming out of the
TV became blurred.
It was as if everything was so ... unreal.
This was it? A coup d'état?
Otis ascended to the top of the military?
So fast?
Everything’s changed overnight?
What about Cecelia, what about General Ralph? What happened to them?
She stood there dumbfounded, her mind blank, and she could never believe what had just happened.
The room was very quiet, and Luther did not make a sound, nor did Anderson. Even Ivy, who is usually
always ranting, froze and watched the TV without saying a word.
At that moment, the phone suddenly rang, and it never stopped. Her heart seemed to follow the
"thump, thump, thump" beat.
Luther finally spoke up, "It's not my phone."
She hurriedly looked down. It was her phone ringing.
It was Kane.
Yes, Roberts Media was a major company in the media world.
He didn't hear anything beforehand after such a big incident?
Joyce hurriedly pressed the answer button.
Kane's anxious voice came from the other end of the phone, "Sister, have you seen the news yet?"
"Yeah, all the TV stations are showing the same live feed."
"Sister, the military has changed. Just now the military suddenly took over the official radio and
television station, and we only knew what happened after the live broadcast. Now the military have
informed us to release it according to what they said. Now no one knows what happened and the
Roberts family dares not to confront him, and can only do as they say."
Kane finished in one breath, "Sister, is there anything unusual on your side? Has Luther come back
yet?"
"Nothing unusual." Joyce glanced up at Luther, "He's back."novelbin
"That's good. I'm relieved to have someone to look after your side. Sister, I'm going to Roberts'
Headquarters to help them, and I'll call you in time if there's anything new."
"Hmm. You go get busy."
After Joyce hung up the phone.
Ivy couldn't resist coming up and asking, "Ms. Knowles, Mr. Warner, I am confused. What has actually
happened? Does it have any effect on us?"
"It's not clear at this point, and the impact can be large or small." Luther subconsciously hugged
Anderson tighter, "Our country is always a military government, and it’s only now changed to a
presidential system. The influence of the military is always there. Because the military power has never
been transferred to the government. Originally the Heath family promised that it was getting ready for
the transfer, and it should just be the following years."
