CHAPTER 1347 YOUR GOAL IS JUST TO TAKE ME OUT

Time flew by fast. Soon, it was already the tenth day Nathan was brought back to help with the investigations of the case of Wyatt Windsor by Sergeant Greene.

The date was the 7th of August. Two more days from today, Nathan was supposed to stand at the wedding altar with Penny.

Although Penny had busied herself with the wedding arrangements together with her family, the worry that weighed on all of the Smiths got heavier day by day. On some nights, Penny would even cry herself to sleep.

There were a lot of rumors going around. Some had claimed that Nathan was a murderer, and was now arrested and done for.

Penny had tried many times to visit Nathan, but every time she knocked on the doors of the Secret Service, they would reject her and say that Nathan was not to meet with anyone from outside at the moment.

Every time she could only return home disheartened and blindly wait for Nathan's return with her parents.

Frida advised Penny to suspend the setting up of the wedding ceremony temporarily, as she had a hunch that Nathan was in hot waters and with how things were going, it would still take some time before Sergeant Greene would let him off.

In response, Penny rejected Frida's suggestion without so much as a bat of an eye.

She muttered softly, "Nathan promised that he will definitely put the wedding ring on me himself on the 9th of August! He is a man of his words, and I have faith that he will come back in time!"

At a secret location in Channing.

The small yard was particularly shielded from the hustle and bustle of the outside world, no one would have guessed that there were dozens of hidden guards planted around the simple yard to the point that all of the residents in the vicinity were also the people of Secret Service in disguise.

Nathan had been staying here for the past couple of days.

At the moment, he was playing chess with Sergeant Greene.

Sergeant Greene seemed to be engaged in serious brainwork, whereas Nathan had a relaxed air hanging around him.

Bam!

Nathan gently knocked over a white piece on the chessboard and his lips curled up, "You've lost again, Sergeant Greene!"

Kenneth looked at him and laughed bitterly, "I am totally in awe of the General's proficiency in chess."

At that moment, Hendrix, the assistant of Kenneth marched in with a few of their subordinates and yelled, "Sergeant Greene!"

Kenneth lifted his head, "Hendrix, you're

here."

Hendrix responded, "I have just returned from the Brimmopolis and this time, I have an important witness with me."

Witness?

Nathan knitted his brows slightly.

Kenneth, who was on a losing streak just now had been feeling miserable, but the light came back to his eyes as he glanced at Nathan. He took a sip of tea before asking impassively, "Hendrix, who is this witness that you're talking about?"

Hendrix answered, "It's Fion Xavier from the Xavier family."

"She was with Andy and the rest that night of the incident. The lot of them were drinking with Wyatt Windsor at the hotel."

Kenneth was puzzled, "Didn't we already talked to her previously?”

Hendrix replied, "Ms. Xavier revealed that because she was afraid of Nathan's status, she decided not to say everything on her mind on the day of her interrogation.

However, she's willing to step out now to testify against Nathan."

Testify?

The corners of Nathan's lips curled up.

Kenneth responded, "To testify against Nathan about what?"

Hendrix replied, "According to Fion Xavier, Nathan killed Andy and made her beg for her life on the ground. She'd also mentioned that Nathan had gotten in a heated argument with Wyatt."

"On the night of the incident, Wyatt had chided Nathan for having the intentions to kill his owner even though he was a but pet brought up in their household." Material © of .

"Then, Nathan shouted at Wyatt with a malicious intent, 'Do you really think I dare not end you?'"

Kenneth turned to Nathan and laughed mockingly, "Nathan, why didn't you described your conversation with Wyatt Windsor as it had happened when we asked you to help with the

investigation previously?"

Nathan looked Kenneth in his eyes and muttered coolly, "Fion Xavier will never have the guts to frame me. This is all your idea, right?”

Kenneth's face dimmed as he scoffed, "Frame you?"

"Hahaha! Why do you think that I am framing you?”

"Nathan, the truth will always come to light in the end."

"All of the evidence now points to you. You are the one who murdered Wyatt Windsor! You'd better confess to your sins right now!"

"Or else, I will report everything to the President and he will give us his approval to officially put you under interrogation."

Nathan still had his eyes fixated on Kenneth, "Are you someone's puppet, or are you simply trying to find a scapegoat to bear all the responsibilities so you can close the case of Wyatt's disappearance as soon as you can?"

Kenneth sneered, "I have no idea what you're talking about!"

"Since you have no intention of giving us a proper answer, the only thing I can do now is to ask the President for his advice. By that I mean I will request to be granted more authority so as to put you under interrogation!"

Nathan replied with an edge in his tone, "I am now certain that someone had given you the instruction to frame me. It made sense now, the reason why you haven't been able to discover any leads to Wyatt's case was because you haven't been doing anything at all."

"You are in cahoots with the person responsible for Wyatt's death. Your goal is to take me out, right?"
