Chapter 1590


    “Centurion Jokerman, I won’t give you a dishonorable discharge and let you keep your centurion post


    for your father’s sake. But you can’t get away with doing such a thing!”


    Adrian then ordered the soldiers holding George down, “Go ahead and beat him 40 times!”


    “Yes!” The city defense soldiers immediately replied in acknowledgment and beat George hard on the


    back with a long thick nk.


    They beat him repeatedly with dull thuds.


    It was apanied by George’s screams!


    Wesley could not bear to look at him, and his wife Wanda had tears in her eyes as she quickly looked


    away, unable to look any longer. It was the end of the matter.


    After returning to the office, Adrian sat in his chair and let out a long breath.


    Dora’s expression did not look good.


    He asked after walking over, “Commander Lennon, isn’t today’s incident anticlimactic?”


    What Dora meant by “anticlimactic” was that much was said, but little was done.


    Alder, Gregory, and Anthony arrested the woman George hid in the army camp. He should have kicked


    George out of the city defense army immediately.


    It was the right thing to do. However, Adrian ended up only punishing George, not expelling him from


    the army camp. He even let him stay as a centurion.


    Such a punishment was too light. It was not too much to describe it as anticlimactic!


    Therefore, Dora was upset. He found Adrian’s treatment unfair and inappropriate. But, as Adrian’s


    subordinate, Dora did not confront him out of anger but asked him discreetly.


    Adrian looked up at Dora before ncing at Gregory and Anthony and saying, “Indeed, George’s


    actions should have gotten him kicked out of the army, but he also saw city defense soldiers from


    Wesley’s faction who were sympathetic to Wesley and George. If I ignored their feelings and kicked

    George out of the army base, things might have gotten out of hand.”


    Dora was not impressed by Adrian’s words.


    However, he did not say much. He knew Adrian had his own ideas.


    Sure enough, Adrian continued, “Managing a battalion of 3,000 isn’t an easy task, and one of the most


    important things to do is tofort the soldiers. If the soldiers’ morale is shaken, the battalion isn’t far


    from fracturing, so I gotta take care of the soldiers’ feelings.”


    After a pause, Adrian continued saying, “I’ll keep this in mind for George and Wesley. Don’t worry. If


    Wesley does something again, I won’t go easy on him!”


    After hearing Adrian’s words, Dora’s discontent finally subsided.


    Adrian turned to look at Gregory and Anthony. “You two should be relieved too, right?”


    Gregory and Anthony’s expressions changed dramatically. They quickly fell to one knee and bowed


    their heads.


    That was when Dora realized another reason Adrian did not kick George out of the army camp. Not


    only did Wesley and George bring women to the army camp, but Gregory and Anthony also did it.


    However, instead of letting their women stay in the army camp, the two men sent them away that same


    night.


    Either way, Gregory and Anthony had vited militaryw.


    If Adrian severely punished Wesley and George today, why did he let Gregory and Anthony off the


    hook?
