Penny Smith and Kylie Tonkins, together with over two hundred businessmen who attended the cocktail party on the cruise, were
standing on the deck waiting to be rescued by the warships.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024.
Much to their surprise, they saw dius being brought out to the deck by the military to be gunned down.
It caused amotion at the scene, sending the crowd into a frenzy. Some cheered in rejoice while others hurled curses at him.
Penny Smith knew that dius Cross would be captured by the military and given a hefty punishment, but it had never crossed
her mind that he would be executed instantaneously on the spot.
It went to show that the military meant business.
She felt slightly anxious and started looking around for Nathan Cross.
Nathan Cross and Colin Dunne were asked to stay back for some questioning with
Major-General Wilson.
Feeling worried, Penny Smith wondered if Major-General Wilson would make things difficult for Nathan Cross.
Then, she saw Nathan Cross, Franklin Wilson, Colin Dunne, and the rest of the people walking up to her slowly.
"Darling!" Penny Smith let out a happy squeal.
She dashed towards Nathan Cross and threw her arms around him.
"Nathan!" Kylie Tonkins called out to him as well.
Nathan Cross hugged Penny Smith and stroke her hair gently as heforted her, "It''s all right, don''t worry, the ringleader has
been executed. As for the rest of the gang, they have been arrested and they will be given a harsher sentence."
Not long after that, Nathan Cross, Penny Smith, Kylie Tonkins, and the rest of the businessmen were sent back to Channing.
Penny Smith felt much better after reaching home. When she had finally calmed down, she began wondering how Franklin
Wilson came to know about what was happening on the cruise, showing up on time. Was it because of Nathan Cross?
She had thought so because, whenever Nathan Cross was in danger, Franklin Wilson would always show up!
The more Penny Smith thought about it, the more she was certain that it had something to do with Nathan Cross. She looked at
him and asked, "Nathan, are you hiding something from me? Why does Major-General Wilson always show up whenever you
are in danger?"
"Don''t tell me it was a coincidence because it doesn''t make any sense to me that Major-General Wilson would appear from
nowhere in the middle of the sea to rescue us."
Well, Nathan Cross knew from the very beginning that the business cocktail party was a set-up by dius, hence he instructed
Franklin Wilson to deploy the military force to be on standby for support, which was also the reason why Franklin Wilson had
appeared just on time.
However, Nathan Cross simply smiled and exined, "It was really a coincidence, and it was dius’ own wrongdoings that had
gotten him into trouble!"
Penny Smith was stunned momentarily and queried, "You mean to say that it had nothing to do with you? What''d happened
actually?"
Nathan Cross smiled and asked, "Do

Penny Smith nodded her head and affirmed, "Yes, of course. I''d even shouted at dius for being so inhumane."

exined, "Well, it just so happened
