Without waiting for Jody to reply, Bill bowed again, "I'll take my leave, General Gardner."

The man standing right in front of Bill instantly clenched his fists, held back his annoyance and then finally left the palace hall with anger still lumped in his chest.

Strange. In all his life, he had never been this upset before. But, what that War Advisor did actually made him easily upset.

Jody walked quickly towards the training building. Steven who followed right behind was already starting to worry if the general would go on another rampage there. He hoped that there weren't many guards there so that they wouldn't become the target of Jody Gardner's anger.

But, fortunately, Jody's anger faded a little when he saw Dorothy Winks, one of the palace staff who was Jody's lover, inside the training building, checking the equipment of their tools that had become her duty.

Steven was really relieved and immediately considered Dorothy as a saviour goddess who had saved everyone from Jody

    "You're the one," Jody argued. "We'll talk later. I have to report to King Keannu," Dorothy retorted. Without wanting to argue anymore, Jody let her lover go and he could only vent his frustration through physical exercise in the building. Meanwhile, in the Silver Building, Bill stood looking through his old belongings accompanied by his ever faithful Andrew Reece. "You don't have to keep me company like this, Reece," Bill said. "It's my duty to serve you, General." "No, it isn't. I'm only a War Advisor now, Reece. You don't have to serve me," Bill said. However, Andrew Reece remained adamant. "No, General. I swore to serve you to the death, so I will." Bill sighed wearily and let Andrew follow him. "General, it's unacceptable to me that you have to bow before that jerk Jody Gardner." "Shh, watch your language!" Bill admonished. Andrew said, "But he is a jerk, General. He kidnapped you, held you captive and-" "I know. You're right about that, but you have to remember, he's

    Andrew Reece noticed the forehead of the war general he served so faithfully was furrowed and he cautiously began to speak, "Perhaps, they are not from another kingdom, General." Bill immediately turned his head and gave a questioning look in return, "No? Then where do you think they are from?" Andrew moistened his lips, trying to give a neutral but purposeful answer, "I suspect that they might be people from your neighbourhood, General." Bill sighed softly. He disagreed but still appreciated the answer given by Andrew. The young man had the courage to say his answer, so there was no reason for Bill to sneer at it. So he chose to say slowly. "Hm, I have many enemies, but I don't think anyone would dare to kill me, Reece. My enemies in Carlo Hill are just ordinary people," Bill said. "Ordinary people are also very likely to commit such acts, General," Andrew replied, still seemingly confident in his answer. However, even after hearing that, Bill still couldn't accept it. He trie

    The sudden change of subject actually took Andrew a little by surprise, but he thought quickly. "You've never fought him, General but General Gardner has." "Uh, I see. Bring me the full document tonight, Reece!" Bill ordered. "Yes, General." In another part of the palace, Keannu Wellington was standing in his flower garden that night when Amanda Clark, the palace secretary who had served the kingdom for several years, came to him to report something. Keannu realized she was coming after the guard told him. "Your Majesty," Amanda Clark greeted as she bowed slowly. "Yes, Amanda. Did you get it?" Keannu asked. "Yes, I have, Your Majesty," Amanda replied as she handed a white tablet to the king. Keannu immediately took his reading glasses and opened the document and read it carefully. "Good, this is very good. We can use this to attack them," Keannu said happily. Amanda Clark looked down and smiled with relief. "So, should I tell General Gardner now, Your Honour?" Keannu Wellin

    Keannu Wellington's eyes gave a look of disbelief. He even stared in bewilderment at the best general the Ans De Lou Kingdom had ever had and was even adored by all the people of Ans De Lou and trusted by his father. "General Mackenzie, of course this is very pertinent. Don't you think we can use that to destabilise the kingdom, General?" Keannu asked, suddenly filled with so much fervour that Bill could feel his excitement. Bill's brow furrowed in confusion, "You mean you intend to use this scandal to threaten or frame King Maldiva, Your Majesty? Is it really like that?" Keannu was happy that Bill finally understood his brilliant idea. "Exactly. We can use that to strike a deal with them. I'm sure they'll be unlikely to attack if they know we've got evidence of that Kingsley scandal." Keannu chuckled at the thought of that haughty king surrendering to him. It must feel so good to see your enemy bow before you, helpless. His eyes wandered far and wide, as if the King of Maldiv

    "Monica, you know how great he is right?" Keannu replied even more annoyed. "Well, no matter how great he is, if you can't control him, it's useless, right?" Monica said. Keannu immediately made a move, ordering all his bodyguards and servants to get out of the way. Gosh, his mood really got worse after he heard his wife's words. Monica let out a long sigh, the young queen looked sorry for her husband. "Then, what exactly did he do?" "He just criticised my way of winning." "What kind of way?" Monica asked. Keannu was very open with his wife. He told his queen everything. There was not a single secret he hid from Monica Wilhelm. So, this time he didn't hesitate at all when he told her, "I found out an interesting piece of information about the crown prince of the Maldiva Kingdom and it's a scandal. I intend to use this to threaten the King of Maldiva." Monica nodded, easily understanding the story quickly. "Oh, I see and that arrogant general disagrees? Is that what he criticiz

    "Sorry, Your Majesty. Forgive me if I have been presumptuous. But, this is my first time meeting you," Bill said. Monica frowned, a little unsure. There was no way she had the wrong person. This person standing not far from her was definitely that person. The person she had met a few years ago. Uh, it was so long ago, but the old incident was a common occurrence and she easily forgot about it. So, she was sure she could not have recognized the wrong person. In fact, the person's face had not changed. There was no significant change at all. "No, no. You're wrong, we've met before. It was at ....." The woman could not continue and soon realised she was not alone with Bill. So many bodyguards and servants were around them. If she made a wrong move, tomorrow's unpleasant gossip could spread throughout the palace. Her good reputation could be damaged and she did not want that to happen. For Monica Wilhelm, her position and reputation in front of the public was certainly the most impo

    "There's something I need to discuss with him," Bill replied, putting an end to any questions Andrew might have asked. Andrew didn't dare ask any more questions after seeing the general's face looking so unkind. Bill once again checked all the equipment and afterwards made some important notes. The next morning, exactly two days before they were to attack the kingdom of Maldiva, Bill met the war general after getting the permission obtained with Andrew's help. "I didn't realize that Andrew Reece had turned into your loyal servant," Jody quipped as Bill entered his private residence. Bill was being satirised and he replied casually, "Ever since I entered this palace, Andrew Reece has been the one who has helped me the most in various ways." "Hm, of course I can see that." Jody's gaze looked unfriendly but since he and his war advisor had to work together this time then he tried to suppress his ego for the time being. "So, what did you have to say this morning?" Jody asked. "Ab

    Keannu unburdenedly replied, "Of course. I've thought about what the future holds." "Are you sure?" Monica asked, clearly doubtful of her husband's words. "You doubt my word, darling?" A smile appeared on the queen's lips, "I don't know if this is a doubt or not. But one thing is for sure, I know you somehow." Keannu Wellington replied with a small chuckle but it was enough to prove that what was inside Monica's head was a little bit of the truth. "You must have thought of getting rid of one of them, right?" Monica guessed. Keannu Wellington stopped his laughter and looked at his wife intently, before replying with another chuckle that now sounded even more unpleasant to hear. The queen did not return the laughter and only stared at her husband curiously so the young king immediately replied, "You are indeed very suitable to be my wife, my queen." Monica bit her lower lip and looked away, "Isn't the reason you married me because I can understand your thoughts? I'm famous for g

    At first Michelle Veren didn't understand what James Gardner was asking. However, when she saw the look on the general's face, she immediately knew he meant the time of the departure of the three people they were looking for.So, the Veren boutique owner replied, "About an hour ago, General Gardner."Hearing that answer, Reiner immediately went limp. But, it was inversely proportional to James who was even full of enthusiasm. This could be seen from James who even said, "Come on, Rei. Let's go after him."Reiner looked sadly at his best friend and replied, "It won't catch up, James. It's been too long."James did not even listen to Reiner's words and ordered some of his men, "Prepare the car, let's go after them!""James," Reiner called softly.James ignored the call and kept saying to his men who were still quietly waiting, "Find out through the CCTV which area they are currently in. They ... should be visible if they take the highway from behind this building."Reiner bit his own

    Unfortunately it was all too late for the young girl to realize. All the words of the girl named Alice Porter were clearly heard by Reiner Anderson and James Gardner.With a dark look on his face, James said, "Miss, you-""No, no. I just misspoke, I ... I don't know anything. You heard me wrong," Alice said, whose face paled even more. Especially when she saw the aura of James Gardner, the terrifying war general, she found it even harder to breathe.Reiner also could not help himself so he said in an exasperated tone, "Tell me everything you know or you ... will know how terrible it is when you face the two of us.""I don't care if you are a woman. I can still find a punishment that you deserve," Reiner continued coldly.Alice swallowed harshly. Of course the young girl was very confused. Moreover, no one was trying to help her at all. All the employees in the boutique looked so frightened that no one dared to open their mouths."Say it now! We don't have much time, Miss!" James gro

    James' question immediately made Reiner silent for a few moments. He stared at the boutique with a confused look on his face.Meanwhile, James didn't want to waste any more time so he wordlessly walked towards the boutique owned by Michelle Veren, a forty-year-old female designer who was quite famous in the country.Reiner didn't just stand by and do nothing, lamenting his inaccuracy. He followed James with a small trot right behind James without a word.As soon as James was faster than him to reach the door, he immediately saw the two boutique guards who opened the door for them."Can I help you?" one of the boutique guards asked James."I'm looking for Princess Rowena. Where is she now?" James asked back matter-of-factly as he darted his eyes all over the first floor of the boutique.Although there was a suspicion rising in James' mind, the young man put his anxiety ahead of his suspicion."You're looking for Princess Rowena? Who are you? You-""James Gardner. Royal War General Ans

    Reiner Anderson did not answer James' question. Instead, he had a facial expression that looked both hesitant and confused.Of course, that made James Gardner even more annoyed. "Come on, tell me quickly! What's so strange about Princess Rowena?" James urged, impatiently.Reiner swallowed and scratched his ears before answering, "Well, I'm not sure if this is strange to you. But ... I think it's very strange, James."James gritted his teeth in growing annoyance and impatience.Luckily, he didn't need to ask anymore as Reiner added, "So, according to reports she went outside the palace."Hearing Reiner's answer, James snorted rudely. "What's so strange about that? I know she often goes outside the palace."Reiner sighed softly, "Indeed. But, this time ... a few hours ago, she left without a bodyguard. And she ... left with their son, Prince Kharel."Instantly James glared in shock, "What? Are you ... sure?""Yes, James. She just-""How is that possible? King Xylan ... didn't forbid he

    Gary Davis did not answer Xylan's question. He just wore a pitiable expression. It instantly brought out the guilt in Xylan Wellington.Oh, no. What have I done? Did ... did I go too far in becoming suspicious of my own personal assistant? Xylan thought to himself as he stared at Gary's innocent face.The viceroy sighed softly. He went back to thinking hard. He tried to remember everything about Gary. He had never made a mistake, not once. He also never did anything suspicious all this time. Gosh, am I suspecting the wrong person? Xylan thought.However, he shook his head quickly as he realized something.But, wait a minute. It was James Gardner who suspected him. He couldn't have spoken carelessly. Otherwise, there was no way he could have been selected as the deputy war general. His instincts must be very strong that he has suspicions of Gary Davis, Xylan thought seriously.He then looked at Gary once more and finally nodded his head.He does look very innocent, but he could be h

    Ben didn't know how he should respond to his friend's words, but all he could do was go over to James and pat him gently on the back repeatedly in an attempt to calm him down."He's really not coming back, Ben.""No, he's not. It's just-""He wouldn't give that kind of message if he didn't mean what he said," James cut Ben off.Ben sighed softly, "James, what I meant was ... he probably doesn't want to be looked for anymore because he wants to go back to the palace himself."Ben's words made James, who had been so frantic, straighten his back. The war general then turned to Ben and responded, "What do you mean?"Ben wasn't sure what he was thinking but he said it anyway, "I think ... he just wants to go home alone."James paused, trying to digest his friend's words."Tell you what ... how about we just go back to the palace, who knows if Riley might actually be home," Ben explained.Ricky and Steven Drilon were silent as they listened to Ben's words.They also didn't have time to reac

    Ricky Drilon could only stare at the question.Oh, he often found himself in a confusing situation. But, he had never once felt depressed.Though he was also very often faced with a difficult choice. However, again, such things could be resolved well without any inner turmoil.However, one question asked by Riley Mackenzie put him in his most difficult phase. "Why are you doing nothing? Who are you going to obey? Me or General Gardner?" Riley repeated his question.Ricky swallowed harshly, getting more and more confused.His forehead was furrowed, clearly showing a great deal of indecision. He repeatedly smoothed his hair in just one minute. That made Riley smile strangely, "So, what? Who are you going to choose to obey?" Ricky bit his own teeth.How is this? What am I supposed to do? And why am I in this situation? Ricky thought.He looked indecisive, full of doubts. Riley himself looked very calm and relaxed at Ricky's confusion."Why aren't you answering me?" Riley asked with a

    Ricky didn't answer James' question immediately, instead he looked back at Steven, his brother. From the look in his eyes, it was clear that the young man was seeking Ricky's approval. Apparently, James Gardner noticed this habit and with an exasperated look on his face, he commented, "Come on, do you have to have a discussion before answering a simple question like the one I asked you earlier?" "Don't you have your own opinion?" James continued in a cold tone. Ricky and Steven's faces turned a perfect shade of red. Ben grimaced at James' assertiveness but he didn't make an interruption. Not wanting to make James even angrier, Ricky finally replied, "If it's an ordinary person, we can probably still go after him. However, if it's General Mackenzie, I ...." The young man did not dare to continue his words. From the look on his face he looked hesitant until James continued his words by saying, "You're not sure we can catch up with Riley?" Ricky stammered, "Absolutely, General Gar

    Benedict Arkitson instantly froze like a statue as if he dared not move his body at all. The thirty-four-year-old senior class one soldier was stunned without being able to issue any rebuttal to the junior soldier's explanation.He thought that he had no reason to doubt Lory Blackwell's words. Meanwhile, the strangely gloomy James Gardner looked the other way, as if reluctant to meet Lory Blackwell's eyes that were staring at him innocently. The young war general then said, "It's Riley. It must be him, it can't be wrong."Lory smiled with satisfaction and nodded with relief. The young man let out a long sigh after his statement was beyond doubt.However, he saw the sad look on James Gardner's face that the war general couldn't hide.He even heard James mutter softly, "It really is him. But ... he must be angry with me. If he wasn't angry, why would he leave?"That of course made Lory very surprised. James Gardner had always been known as a very rigid and cold person. He never imag
