Chapter 1477

• Vince and Nate had recently returned to Li City after being stationed in the capital, waiting for further instructions. Upon their return, they were shocked to learn that the president had gotten married. Word on the street was that the president was incredibly fond of his new wife, the young madam. It was only after Nate was caught talking behind her back—his complaints overheard by both Liza and the president—that he realized how serious his mistake was. He had clearly crossed a line.

Surely, he thought, the president would let it slide this once. After all, he had only spoken casually, right?
