Chapter 373: You Can Try If You Dare (Part 1)
"If you want to take her away, you need to ask for my consent first."
Just as Guerrero Long was about to stand in front of Amalia, a cold voice suddenly sounded.
Other people didn’t feel much, but Lieutenant Colonel Trueno’s face changed.
This voice, even if it turned to ashes, he would still recognize it!
The person who came was Kenny Lin.
He had just come to find Amalia, but when he heard Lieutenant Colonel Trueno targeting her, he, who was usually calm and composed, couldn’t remain calm anymore.
"Holden Trueno, if you insists on causing trouble, I’ll accompany you to the end."
Kenny Lin stood in front of Amalia, his imposing manner was very intimidating.
Seeing that he seemed to have intentions of getting serious, everyone involuntarily took a step back.
Only when they saw Kenny Lin protecting the person Holden Trueno’s intended to assailants did they understand why he was targeting Amalia.
Holden Trueno was shaking with anger, "Kenny Lin, what’s your relationship with her? What does my business with her have to do with you? Do you have to oppose me?"
"Touching her is the same with opposing me. You can try if you dare," Kenny Lin’s tone was icy, and his face turned cold.
He didn’t think it was necessary to explain his relationship with Amalia to someone irrelevant like him.
Holden Trueno took a deep breath.
Fighting Kenny Lin here would only make a fool of himself in public.
But if he letting them go like this, where would he put his face in the future?
He couldn’t move forward, nor retreat.
Behind Kenny Lin was the Lin family.
Mr. Lin and General Lin were also an influential figures in the military.
If things were escalated, even if his grandfather intervened, he might not get any benefit from it.
Thinking that it was Lorenzo Garraka and his companions who put him in this dilemma, he immediately took note of them in his mind.
Lorenzo Garraka and his friends also realized something was wrong.
"How about you count me in too?"
Geneal Silva walked over with a smile.
He had actually noticed the situation here earlier and intended to intervene when he saw Amalia was involved.
But Kenny Lin beat him to it.
Thinking about it, he glanced at Kenny Lin.
What a great opportunity, but it was taken by him first.
"Geneal Silva, what does this have to do with you?"
Holden Trueno naturally wouldn’t be foolish to think he was here to support him.
"If you want to mess with Amalia, then it concerns me. You better think about it," Geneal Silva said calmly, without explaining the connection between Amalia and himself.
Holden Trueno couldn’t hold back this time.
He glared fiercely at Lorenzo Garraka and his friends.
Although he’s the one who told this people to picking fights with anyone they see as long it was the students from Heavenly Path University before.
However, who knows these useless people would actually picked someone with such a big background.
Even Geneal Silva is speaking up for her, and turning the tables on him.
Good! Very good!
Lorenzo Garraka and his friends turned pale from his glare.
They had no idea that the person they were dealing with had such a powerful background.
"Now that Geneal Silva has spoken, I’ll give you face then," Holden Trueno said, then left directly without looking back.
Lorenzo Garraka and his friends felt uneasy standing there.
With Holden Trueno gone, they didn’t dare linger here anymore and they quickly disappeared into the crowd.
"Long time no see, Amalia," as soon as Holden Trueno left, Geneal Silva turned to Amalia with a smile.
Amalia nodded at him, "What brings Geneal Silva here?"
Geneal Silva gestured to the area behind him, "I’m here to visit some wounded soldiers and make some arrangements. I didn’t expect to run into you who’s having trouble."
"Geneal Silva, even if you hadn’t intervened, we could have handled it ourselves," Guerrero Long said.
If he couldn’t see through General Silva’s intentions, he would have failed as Instructor.
So what if Holden Trueno had a grandfather who was a general?
As long as he wasn’t gravely injured, General Trueno couldn’t do much.
Pretending not to understand his implication, Geneal Silva said, "Aren’t you guys going in? Let’s go together."
With that said, Kenny Lin took Amalia inside without giving him a chance to talk to her privately.
Though Geneal Silva appeared calm on the surface, he cursed Kenny Lin in his mind several times over.
...
"Have you had any past grievances with Holden Trueno?"
Others could tell, and Amalia certainly could too.
"No."
Kenny Lin responded quickly, not out of stubbornness, but because he truly never meet with Holden Trueno at all.
Any hostility Holden Trueno harbored towards him was entirely his imaginary.
Amalia tried a different approach, "Then how did you two meet?"
"His grandfather is a general in the military, and my second brother is also a general. Their opinions have always clashed."
Amalia almost understood what was going on, "So Holden Trueno targets you out of jealousy for your talent."
"If it weren’t for you, given his current age, reaching the rank of Lieutenant Colonel would already be considered very fast. It’s fair to say he’s talented, but since both of you have family members who are generals, people can’t help but compare the two of you. Am I right?"
Kenny Lin glanced at her in surprise, "There’s some truth to that."
"With your high talent, strong abilities, and younger age, if you were to join the military, based on the missions you’ve completed over the years, you’d have accumulated enough accomplishments to be promoted to Colonel or even Brigadier General."
"Without you, he would be the most outstanding young officer in the military. But the moment you appeared, whenever someone mentions him, they would say that while Holden Trueno is the fastest rising officer in the military, compared to Kenny Lin, he’s just a slightly above average person."
Amalia spoke confidently.
