For a few seconds Jody Gardner looked petrified as he heard Bill's words. The words were spoken in a voice so cold and piercing that he almost shivered. Jody even felt his throat dry up so badly that he couldn't swallow at all. It was strange. It was the first time he did it after he met that man. What happened actually? He felt frightened just by hearing that voice. He began to wonder, where did this fear that gripped him so much come from? It felt like he had never felt so scared in his entire life. However, as he began to remember something, his eyes widened in shock. His fear made him remember of one person. William Mackenzie. The only person who could make him shudder in horror and submit to his orders. Only that great general could make him unable to move. Jody also turned his gaze and looked at the eyes that were staring at his intently. "No. You ... can't be him," Jody said hoarsely. His voice had returned but not his courage. He was even afraid that he was now

Jody Gardner's body felt heavy and he might turn to stone after hearing the king's words. The man suddenly lost his voice and could not utter a single word. Keannu Wellington who saw the shock in the War General's eyes then simply said, "You don't need to be surprised like that, General." Has he gone mad? How could I not be surprised after hearing such a shocking fact? Jody Gardner could only wonder. How did he know all that? As he remembered, all the soldiers involved in the incident were gone. All of them had died in other wars and even if any of them were still alive, none of them were still in the palace. There was no way the king could find those people. "You must be wondering how I know about this," Keannu said casually. Jody Gardner struggled to gulp but he still couldn't speak. He could now only listen intently to everything his king said. "Actually, it's no big deal, General Gardner." Keannu chuckled and continued, "A great general like William Mackenzie decided t

The next day, in William Mackenzie's small family home, Cassandra Wood was contorting her face as she listened to her husband's confession. "So, you've been hiding it from me, Bill?" Cassandra asked for the third time. Bill repeatedly replied, "I just haven't told you about it, Cassie." Cassandra snorted loudly again. "Oh, it's unbelievable. How come?" Bill let out a long sigh, already expecting that his wife wouldn't believe him easily. "I started it when I was young, Cassie. Here are some of my other companies. It's all on that list," Bill explained as he pointed to a large folder that contained all of Bill's assets. Cassandra turned to her husband, "I really don't know you. I know very little about you." The woman looked disturbed by that. "So, what else are you still hiding from me? Are you going to give me another surprise later, Bill?" Cassandra asked. Bill sighed, "I've told you all my secrets. But ...." Cassandra began to feel bad. Suddenly, she began to be wary of w

"As to that, I cannot elaborate further, Your Majesty," Bill said. Keannu snorted loudly, realizing that there was no way he could force the great general's hand so he could only say, "Well, then General Mackenzie. It's up to you. If you want to reveal your own identity, no problem." Hearing that answer, Bill immediately said, "Thank you for your generosity, Your Majesty." Keannu nodded and let William Mackenzie leave him. Two days later, in accordance with Bill's request, Keannu held a formal party in the courtyard of the palace hall at noon. Everyone began to wonder what was really going on. "I don't know, what's the celebration?" one of the servants asked, preparing for the party. "I don't know. I don't hear anything good happening, but who knows?" "Never mind, we're just servants who have no right to ask questions. Wouldn't it be better if we just got this over with? We don't have much time," a forty-year-old waiter said. A male servant suddenly chimed in, "Could there be a

Keannu Wellington immediately turned his face and looked at his wife with a look that was so disturbed as if his pleasure had just been interrupted by his wife. However, Monica Wilhelm who was already fearless and so fed up with her husband just stared with a smile, "Husband. Please!" Keannu almost cursed at his wife and vented his frustration at being interrupted but he quickly managed to control himself and returned his smile and said, "You're right, my Queen. I need to stop all this immediately." Hearing that sentence, both Jody Gardner and all the officials in the palace instantly returned to their respective positions and silently waited for the king's action. Once again, Keannu Wellington tried hard not to look too disappointed in front of all the residents of the palace. In a voice that sounded like a wise king he said, "General Mackenzie's presence will never interfere with General Gardner, so stop trying to get one of them stopped because I won't do it." That immediately
