Beloved Wife Of The God Of War

Chapter 51

Her heart raced a thousand miles? "What! The war is closer and all the amunitions they will use for the

war is here, but now it's burning."

She ran farther away from the scene in shock and with a shivering mouth called Derrick. Once he

answered, she said to him, "the amunition house is burning."

"Call the ambulance quickly," she heard Derrick immediately say to someone with him, probably

Alessio. Then she ran speedily to the grandmaster's quaters and inform them.

At once, the base became chaotic.

Many hours later, around 2AM in the midnight, the over one million officers gathered at the central field

of the base.

Derrick and Alessio stood on the tall podium where everyone could see them. It wasn't so dark as there

were streetlights everywhere.

Everyone lined and stationed according to their ranks. There had just been a major chaos and loss on

the base that was obviously caused by an enemy. The atmosphere was filled with sadness and fears.

Derrick spoke into the microphone, "we have lost all the amunitions we intend to use for the coming

war. We have just four weeks to the war and this happened."

No one dared to make a sound. There was a dead pin silence.

"This amunitions cost the government billions of dollars. I'll be held responsible for this loss and I'm

ready to stand before all necessary panels." Derrick said. "However, whoever is used to this will be

killed on the spot. I'll make the person experience the most gruesome and slow death."

He spoke after one minute of fearful and dreadful silence had passed, "as this is urgent, we have

immediately ordered a thorough investigation." As soon as he finished speaking, Alessio whispered in

his ear.

"Good." He said to the microphone then stepped by a side so Alessio can step forward and speak.

"Officers, it's in the rules that no one must walk at ten meters closer to the amunition house but a

certain officer breached that. The CCTV camera caught her running towards the amunition house. Just

after she walked away from the place, the explosion happened."

He looked at the big paper before him and said, "step forward as soon as your name is mentioned."

Alessio was stunned when he saw the name in the paper he was holding. He wasn't the one who

carried out the investigation but his secrete intelligence defence men. Katherine? He mumbled in

shock. That can't be.

Although he wasn't close to Katherine, nonetheless, he was so sure that Katherine wasn't a type of

woman that would set the amunition building on fire.

Alessio wanted to whisper what he found out to Derrick but Derrick was too angry to listen to anything,

"call the betrayal out!" His voice was stern.

Alessio immediately nodded and said, "Surgeon General Katherine, step forward."

Everyone was shocked.

Katherine felt like heart left her body. Her body became jelly and sweats immediately covered her body.

Eh? She had only gone there because she heard the dog barking. Plus she wasn't even aware there

was a rule that officers must not walk ten meters closer to the amunition house.

She shook her head as all eyes set on her, "there must be a mistake somewhere."

One of the Grandwar king shouted on her, "Step forward, you betrayal."

Katherine shivered and stepped forward. One of the rules of the military is to obey first before

complaining.

After stepping forward, she looked at Derrick as if saying if nobody trust me, you should trust me.

Derrick was finding it hard to believe surely but one of the intelligence defence team stepped up and

handed a letter to Alessio then stepped down.

Alessio checked the letter at once and after reading the content and was dissapointed at Katherine. He

turned to Derrick and handed over the letter to him respectfully, Derrick read the content of the letter

that states, "Dear Katherine, being a long time we see, my woman. Of course I miss you and I'm sure

you miss me as well. How are my children? The war is getting closer and I need you to burn down the

Western Ocean City amunition house. It will really go a long way in securing our future and that of the

kids. Once we get rid of Western Ocean City, we can colonize their country and you will rule side by

side with me as the goddess of war. Please do this in twenty four hours, sweetheart. No one will find

out, I promise you."

Derrick folded the letter and looked at Katherine. He wasn't heartbroken at all cause he had never

really trusted anyone. As a soldier who had experienced hundreds of betrayals from people, he had

always prepared his heart to experience the worst from the people closer to him.

Katherine however didn't know what's in the letter. She just knew that Derrick's look on her wasn't a

good one.

"Marshall, I swear, I didn't do it," she said, already crying.

Tears doesn't move a man like Derrick at all, far from it. He never have pity on anyone just because

they are crying.

"Kill her," Derick said in his mind but couldn't utter it out.

"Kill her," he said again but his mouth wouldn't move. "Keep her in prison."

"Marshall!" One of the Grandwar masters called in protest and anger. These old men have never

challenged his decision but they felt like he was partial towads Katherine. If it was someone else, he

would have slaughtered them already. This is the second time he would be sparing Katherine.

"Marshall, she must be killed," another Grandwar master said.

"She must be killed," all the Grandwar masters protested. Then the Grandwar kings summoned little

courage and joined and then, everyone joined in protest.

Donna was secretly happy that her plan was playing out. She want to watch Katherine get slaughtered

mercilessly by Derrick.

A million voices of the officers kept shouting, "she must be killed."

Alessio looked at Derrick and said, "Marshall..."

"Do you want to join them?" Derrick asked coldly.

Alessio saluted him at once and said, "I'll die with you, Marshall."

"Let's be quiet," he said in a calm tone and everyone quieted. "I'll build a new amunitions building with

my own money, I'll also buy all the amunitions with my personal money. I won't bother the government

with it."

"Marshall... Where will you get billions of dollars?" One of the Grandwar masters asked.

Derrick isn't just a god of war, he has many mysteries about him that no one knows. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

"Don't worry about it." Derrick said but some people were still murmuring for Katherine to be killed so

he got angry and said, "Surgeon General Katherine will not be killed and that's final. Whoever is

against that should step forward."

Officers could only look at eachother's faces, no one dared to say a word.

"I'll investigate this matter myself and judge her fairly. Anyone who makes a fuss out of this or hear

gossiping about this will be killed," he said.

The silence in the field became tensed at once and no one dared to even open their mouth anymore

talkless of uttering a word.

Alessio then ordered for Katherine to be taken away at once. Afterwards, Derrick stepped down from

the podium. Alessio addressed everyone with a few more words before dismissing everyone.

Katherine was taken to a cell and once she walked in, the door of the cell got locked.

This is a clean set up! She sunk with her buttocks to the floor and began to cry. There was a little hole

in the walls of every cell room, one could see what someone else is doing in another cellroom.

There was someone watching Katherine crying through the small hole of his cell. His cell was right

beside that of Katherine.

Katherine suddenly heard a familiar voice laughing, she looked around wondering where the voice was

coming from. All of a sudden, her eyes caught sight of two pair of familiar eyes peeping through a hole.

She stood surprisingly and walked closer.

"How life works, Katherine." The person who just laughed spoke.

"Richard..." She called in surprise.
