Boom!
It was as if a lightning bolt had struck everyone’s mind.
The whispers died into an eerie silence, leaving only the sound of leaves rustling in the wind.
It took a while for someone to break the silence.
“Mr Wintringham… Why are you saluting Skylar?”
Ash, Laurel, Pearl and the others were shocked by the scene in front of them.
So were Nathaniel, Winona and Naomi.
Mr Wintringham was the Secretary of Defense for General Philbert for three years and was highly
respected by Norman and the Fuller family.
Why is he, out of all people, saluting Skylar?
Even Langston, who had faced many unexpected situations, was taken aback.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAfter all, this person was as well known as General Philbert.
There was no need for him to salute people of higher ranking.
Sometimes they would even salute him instead.
However, Milton surprisingly gave a proper salutation to Skylar!
Maybe Skylar has some secret identity?
Milton stood as still as a stone before Skylar as he nodded and hummed in response.
Norman could not help but ask, “Mr Wintringham, are you….”
He wanted to ask if Milton had recognized the wrong person, but he nervously swallowed back his
words.
Milton was highly praised by Philbert for his sharp instincts and photographic memory so that he
couldn’t mistake Skylar for someone else.
As Norman pondered, a horrifying thought popped into his head.
He quickly tried to shrug it off.
No, it’s impossible!
Meanwhile, Milton clearly understood the crowd’s attitude toward Skylar and that Skylar had yet to
disclose his identity to the Fuller family.
With that in mind, he knew that he had to be cautious with his words not to offend Skylar.
“You offended Mr Stone?”
Milton asked sternly toward Norman, who was now in front of him.
“Mr Wintringham, I…”
Norman felt his stomach drop.
“Such disrespect! How could you offend Mr Stone? I shall notify General Philbert to postpone your
transfer and that we should reconsider your application!”
“What? Postpone the transfer?”

The Fuller family was shocked.
“Mr Wintringham!”
Norman gasped as he trembled in fear.
His plan to host a family gathering and brag about his promotion as one of General Philbert’s aides was
in shambles after Milton announced reconsidering his transfer application.
No, I can’t believe this!
Spencer immediately walked forward and asked, “Mr Wintringham, you must’ve mistaken him for
someone. Skylar Stone is a mere soldier whose rank is way below Norman’s!”
Milton glared at him in return and hissed, “Quiet! How dare you compare Norman to the North- Mr
Stone?”
In the heat of the moment, Milton had almost said Skylar’s title as the King of the North out loud.
