Chapter 1619
The news about what happened to Wilfred spread throughout Brimmopolis the next day. Everyone
was talking about the fact that he got sent back to jail the same day he was released and because
of that, the Lieberman was finished.
Everyone also agreed that the General was as intimidating and powerful as ever!
Meanwhile, Clifford and Boris were ying chess in the gazebo at the Cab.
Clifford ced a ck chess piece on the board while asking casually, “Mr. Tucker, have you heard
about what happened to Wilfred?”
Boris replied cidly, “I''ve heard a little about it as everyone seems to be discussing it. Seems like
Wilfred wanted to avenge his son right after he got released from jail and sent men to attack
Nathan''s family. However, I don''t think he would have ever expected to be sent back to jail because
of that. Furthermore, this has also caused the downfall of the Lieberman family.”
Clifford nodded and replied, “It''s such a pity indeed. Wilfred was also once regarded as a figure of
influence. We have thought that his release would pose a threat to Nathan Cross. Who knew that he
wasn''t that man''s match at all and was defeated so easily. It seems like we''ve overestimated
Wilfred''s abilities.”
Boris answered, “Or rather, we have underestimated Nathan Cross. Since his base camp is at the
North, we have assumed that no matter what, Wilfred would still be more powerful than him in
Brimmopolis. However, we did not expect Will and Hailey toe to Nathan''s assistance. That was
the direct cause of Wilfred''s final defeat.”
Clifford said, “Every new sovereign brings his own courtiers. Hansel is retiring soon. Besides, right
before his retirement, he suffered a stroke and has handed over all affairs to the Cab. I''m sure
Will and Hailey, who belong to Hansel''s administration, are feeling anxious about the uncertain
situation too. If I guessed it correctly, they must have pinned their hopes on Nathan and were trying
to help him so that he could be their new backing. As long as Nathan is still in power, they can
remain under his protection and it''s one way out for them.”
Boris nodded and agreed, “Indeed, when the new president takes over, he would definitely appoint
his own men to take over the positions of the Commander of the Guardian Special Forces as well
as the Director of the Secret Service. Once Hansel retires, it follows that Will and Hailey''s days are
up. No wonder they are trying so hard to curry favor with Nathan Cross. They''re probably hoping
that he will look after
their interests in the future.”

With Will and Hailey protecting Nathan Cross, it would be difficult for us to deal with him in
Brimmopolis.
Boris replied, “It won''t be easy but we have to do something. Whether we view it from a personal
perspective or the big picture, we will definitely have to get rid of that man.”
Clifford frowned as he asked, “Who should we send to deal with him then?”
Boris narrowed his eyes and replied, “With Will and Hailey helping Nathan, obviously, we can''t
handle the matter personally. As such, our best option would be to get an outsider to do it.”
Clifford was rather surprised with that proposition and asked, “Outsider? Who do you have in mind?”
Boris snickered and replied, “The best would be to get a foreigner for the task. Clifford, have you
heard of the mercenary army, Armageddon?”
Clifford replied at once, “Of course, even though Armageddon isn''t thergest mercenary army and
is also not the most active, they are the most elite mercenary army in the world. Word was it that
within the recent ten years, the Armageddon had seeded in all their missions but one.”
Boris replied, “Yup, three years ago, the vicecaptain led one thousand soldiers from the
Armageddon and infiltrated the North in an attempt to kill Nathan Cross, General of the North.
However, the mercenary army suffered aplete defeat instead. The vice-captain, along with the
thousand soldiers, were all killed by Nathan Cross. That was the only time Armageddon failed in its
mission. From then on, Eurasia was considered a forbidden territory to
the mercenary armies.”
Clifford was confused and asked, “Mr. Tucker, did you bring up the Armageddon because... “
Boris replied with a grin, “Yup, I intend to make use of the Armageddon to get rid of Nathan Cross.”
