Chapter 2949 - 139: No Retirement Allowed!

Chapter 2949: Chapter 139: No Retirement Allowed!

No, this matter absolutely cannot allow more people to know!

After a brief moment of shock, Commander Nelson came to his senses and instinctively said, "No... I cannot approve this matter. Ben Lucas, do you know the consequences if your relationship with Harrison Lucas is exposed now? Are you still considering your future!?"

It seems that Commander Nelson had long anticipated such a reaction.

Ben Lucas’s handsome face carried a serious yet not overly heavy expression: "I know, so I will temporarily request leave and wait until the matter cools down before applying for retirement."

Commander Nelson: "Retirement! Ben Lucas, have you lost your mind, how can you retire!"

The most promising talent for Eastonia’s next ten years is unexpectedly planning to retire, Commander Nelson is adamant in his refusal.

Ben Lucas shrugged nonchalantly: "No choice, Debby may be more important to me than the career I’ve always wanted to pursue... In this case, I can only follow the wishes of my family member and return to inherit the family business."

When Ben Lucas mentions ’family member,’ he naturally means Mr. Lucas.

If he can’t be a soldier, then he’s forced to go home and inherit a billion-dollar business, his words sound quite irritating.

But both Commander Nelson and Harrison Lucas know that the regret in Ben Lucas’s words is not fake, compared to inheriting the vast Royal Palace Finance Group, Ben Lucas prefers the battlefield.

Ben Lucas is not concerned about his interrupted future, instead, he glances at Harrison Lucas and rubs her soft black hair: "It’s just a pity, I have to drag Debby into retiring with me."

Commander Nelson’s chest aches, even at this point he’s still worried about others.

Harrison Lucas, after the shock, lifts her head, looking at Ben Lucas obediently, "I don’t mind, I was meant to follow the young master my whole life."

"Cough, cough cough..." Commander Nelson’s chest hurts more now, his lungs are almost coughing out.

Ben Lucas, undisturbed by the old man’s disruptive coughing sound, messes up Harrison Lucas’s soft black hair with his big hand, if not for the presence of others, he wouldn’t want anyone else to see Harrison Lucas’s adorable and shy look.

"Retirement, retirement, you both stop talking nonsense..." Commander Nelson finally regains his breath, he can’t bear to watch his most valued subordinate leave the military.

The senior leader contemplated: "For now, you both can take leave, you might as well go out and relax, take care of this... this matter that needs handling, remember to keep it confidential. Once you cool off, hopefully, things will have calmed down here, and then you both come back. Report to the military as needed... as needed..."

Commander Nelson looked at Harrison Lucas, feeling a bit uneasy wondering if Ben Lucas would boldly walk around with Harrison Lucas from now on.

It’s fine in ordinary times, but during crucial missions, bringing family members is not allowed.

Harrison Lucas’s dark eyes faced the senior leader, her docility in front of Ben Lucas retreating, revealing some clarity: "Commander, don’t worry, I know my limits, at that time, I can..."

"Future matters, we’ll talk when Debby and I return from abroad." Ben Lucas interrupted her before Harrison Lucas could finish her sentence.

In the past, not knowing Harrison Lucas was a daughter, Ben Lucas could barely accept her staying in the military camp.

Now knowing his Debby is actually a girl, a man like Ben Lucas, who is possessive and easily jealous, could not possibly allow his woman to mingle in an all-male military camp.
