Chapter 1648
Timothy quickly reassured Nathan that he would put his heart and soul into the work.
In fact, he did not have the luxury to choose what he wanted to do next too. At the moment, he
fervently hoped that neither Mr. Davier or Mr. Tucker was involved in the ambush, or he would be in
deep trouble.
Just then, fleets of ck sedans and military jeeps arrived at the scene.
People from the Secret Service as well as the Guardian Special Forces were here.
A group men in ck suits led by Hailey and a troop of soldiers led by Will made their way over to
Nathan together.
Both Will and Hailey looked nonplussed when they saw the ce was in shambles.
Willmanded his men in a stern voice, “Listen to my instruction carefully - cordon off this area
and start a siege of this ce!”
His assistant quickly responded, “Yes!”
Meanwhile, Hailey too gave instruction to her men, “Put together a team to carry out an
investigation!”
“Yes!”
Then, both Will and Hailey greeted Nathan and asked, “General, are you alright?”
Nathan answered in a level voice, “It was a close shave, but I''m alright!”
Will and Hailey let out a sigh of relief j? response.
Immediately, theynded their gaze on Timothy.
In an using tone, Will confronted him, “Timothy, why is the security of this region so terrible
under your watch? I''m sure a severe punishment is awaiting you after something as grave as this
took ce!”
Timothy wore a glum expression upon hearing what Will said.
In the meantime, Nathan pointed out calmly, “In fact, we shouldn''t pin the me entirely on Chief
Carter too. I believe he''s rather devastated too to see something like this taking ce in his region.
So, I just promised him a chance to get to the bottom of the ambush to redeem his mistake.”
Will and Hailey were taken aback by what he said.
Both of them spected that Mr. Tucker must have something to do with the ambush.
Given that Timothy had always been a man on Mr. Tucker''s side, would he betray his boss by
exposing him to be the culprit behind the ambush?
Atst, it did not take them too long before it dawned upon them what Nathan was trying to do.
Letting Timothy take charge of the investigation would surely piss Mr. Tucker off.
If his investigation turned out not to be fruitful, Nathan could always punish him for his subpar work.
However, it would be the best scenario if he did a great job by exposing the jaw-dropping truth to
the public.
Will and Hailey exchanged a knowing nce.
“Since the General has promised you so, you should cherish the chance to redeem yourself. After
all, the nation has exhausted a lot of resources on training you,” Will said.
Nathan nodded in approval. “Timothy, you''ll take charge of the official investigation while Hailey will
spearhead the covert investigation. Both of you will have ten days to submit a report to me.”
Both Hailey and Timothy responded, “Yes!”
The news of the ambush on Nathan soon traveled to the Cab.
Têxt belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
On the same night, the Cab convened an emergency meeting to discuss about the matter.
Nathan was invited to attend the meeting too.
Thanks to Nathan''s effort, the Cab did not mete out any punishment on Timothy right away.
Instead, the Cab approved Nathan''s request to allow Timothy to take charge of the investigation
on the ambush to redeem his mistake.
It was four in the morning by the time the meeting was adjourned.
During the meeting, Boris did an admirable job maintaining a calm expression on his face. Yet, as
long as he was home, he immediatelyunched an angry outburst.
Furiously, he snarled at some of his trusted aides, “Damn it, the Armageddon is nothing near how
they are hailed to be! All they managed to do was creating a big fuss without killing any of Nathan''s
men! Not only that, they''re causing me a huge trouble too! Now, send someone to tell the Dark Lord
to leave the country as soon as possible. His presence here will be a ticking time
bomb for me.”
“Yes, Mr. Tucker.”
