CHAPTER 972 HOW MUCH DID YOU ACCEPT
Draco was shocked beyond belief when he heard those words.
He sniggered obnoxiously and said, "You filthy bastard. Let's see how long you are going to keep up this tough act. You want me to kneel? Not if Major Quinn had anything to say about that.”
Ardal Quinn's voice boomed as he yelled, "Shut up! On your knees and apologize!"
Draco walked smugly toward Nathan and spoke to him in a condescending manner, "Did you hear that? The Major wants you to kneel and apologize..."
Before he finished his sentence, Major Quinn, who stood next to him, was enraged. Then, he let loose his hand and struck Draco across the face with a hard slap!
Slap!
The slap landed squarely on Draco's face and left him dumbfounded.
Draco avoided eye contact with Major
Quinn and spoke sheepishly with his palm on his face, "Major Quinn, why did you..."
Anthony and Grace were left speechless as well by the turn of events.
They did not understand why Ardal Quinn struck Draco. Neither could they fathom why he ordered Draco to kneel and apologize.
However, Ardal Quinn did not have the patience nor time to explain to Draco. He walked frantically towards Nathan and stood to attention. He raised his hand in salute and greeted Nathan. "Major Quinn of the Channing district reporting, Chief!” he hollered.
The dozen over camouflaged soldiers behind Ardal Quinn hurried into position and saluted, "Greetings Chief!" Chief!
Draco was flabbergasted.
Anthony, on the other hand, was gob smacked.
Meanwhile, Grace was stunned beyond belief.
Everyone was speechless. Even Draco's men, who were on the ground, stopped groaning and watched with their mouths opened.
An eerie silence filled the air as if time stood still. Nathan maintained a calm face in the presence of the soldiers and said, "You recognize me?"
Ardal put aside his ego and barked out in response, "Sir, yes, sir. You visited camp Channing several times. You also graced the recent award ceremony with your presence."
"In fact, you presented me with my major epaulets," he continued.
Boom!
Draco's body shuddered involuntarily as though a bolt of lightning had struck him. He could not believe his ears. Good heavens!
Nathan is actually the Chief, and he even frequented the Channing division.
On top of that, he also personally commissioned Major Quinn to the rank of major at the award ceremony?
Draco looked towards Nathan in horror. He sunk into a state of despair as a sense of helplessness overcame him. Yet, Nathan remarked indifferently, "Ah, | was responsible for your commission and presented your insignia.” Ardal replied cautiously, "Yes sir!"
Then, Nathan started to question calmly, "| want an explanation on how this army consignment of tobacco and alcohol have circulated into his hands."
At that moment, Ardal lowered his head in remorse and replied in a faint tone, "| have known Draco wales many years. He ghaped that he ad opoariaeal party for several influential guests. He was in the business of selling tobacco and alcohol, and he held the opinion that the common goods were not befitting of the prestigious event.” Please read the original content at .
"He contacted me and asked for a favor.
He wanted my help to supply him with some of the army's consignment and flaunt them at the banquet,” he continued. Nathan spoke with a chill in his voice, "On how many occasions?"
"Just this once!" Ardal replied frantically.
"Is that the truth? | will investigate the matter personally, and e krrogy tine censege noes out that you lied,’ Nathan remarked. Please read the original content at .
Ardal raised his head and replied with conviction, "Sir, yes, sir. You have my word on that." Nathan's eyes met Ardal's, and in that instant, Nathan was convinced that he told the truth. After all, Nathan was confident in his ability to discern truth from a lie through one's eyes. "You accepted his bribes then?" Nathan continued to ask.
Ardal panicked and hurriedly said, "| only helped him on account efeyn Riendhip ronan a Single cent. ur investigations will prove that I'm telling the truth." Please read the original content at .
