Chapter 10
The officers were scared. Yes, they were to obey orders of superior no matter how ridiculous it is but
this... This woman being asked to throw out is the fiancee to the god of war. Won't they die a miserable
death if they offend her?
"I'll take responsibility for your actions," Katherine understood the fear of the officers who were
hesitating to carry out her command, "now throw her out."
One of the five officers stepped forward boldly then others followed, they bundled Donna at once and
carried her outside of the medical building then throw her out. Donna fell shamefully to the floor.
Donna couldn't believe she was just humiliated in this manner, when she was making an attempt to
stand up, she saw Derick and his assistant, Alessio walking over. Derick was way taller than Alessio.
And his handsomeness was one to die for.
Donna suddenly let out a painful scream as if she was hurt all greatly, whereas, she had only landed
with her back and didn't get hurt at all, but now, she was pretending to be hurt beyound repair.
Derick walked to her quickly and helped her up, she leaned on Derick's body and cried, "I didn't know I
can be humiliated this way."
Derick didn't like her scent and her aura repels him, nonetheless, this is public and she was his fiancee,
he must endure, he asked blankly," who did this to you and why?"
"The Surgeon General told her men to throw me out of the building," she cried, wiping her face with his
shoulder.
Katherine? Derick thought. Was Katherine really that ruthless? Although Katherine was his secret wife,
he doesn't really know anything about her and he doesn't care. He had only married her so he can use
her to find the whereabout of his mother that had stayed hidden since he was born. He believed that he
will find his mother through Katherine before the six months she will use in the military base here will
elapse.
Was Katherine jealous of the fact that he had a fiancee despite being married to him? Their marriage is
just a mirage that will come to an end in six months, why is Katherine acting like they were real
couples. Only real couples has the right to be jealous when they see their partner with another.
"Bring me Katherine," Derick commanded Alessio who was standing a distance away. Alessio walked
away quickly and came back with Katherine.
Many officers in the vicinity pretended to be busy with what they were doing but many actually had their
eyes on the drama that was about unfolding between them.
Someone gossiped, "Marshall is not so ruthless as people say, see how Sergeant Major Donna is
leaning on him."
"That doesn't change the fact that he's ruthless, he probably have a soft spot for Sergeant major
Donna."
"Well, I think Donna is lucky, the position she occupies is many people's dream."
"Marshall even had a calm face, his face is not impossible to behold like it use to. One can tell that
Donna and Marshall are in love."
The gossips went on and on between the officers.
When Katherine appeared, although she wasn't as tall as Derick, she stood tall and bold, there wasn't a
hint of fear on her face.
"General Katherine, what have you done to Donna?"
"She came to my office and started disturbing my peace, I had to command my men to throw her out. I
hate nuisance," she spoke boldly.
Derick frowned, "do you understand that she's my fianceè? Shouldn't you show her some respect?"
"Respect, huh? You want me to show my subordinate a respect? In that case, you can increase her
rank to be higher than mine then I will respect her," Although she didn't have any crush on Derick, she
didn't like how he was being defensive of Donna. Did their marriage means anything to him at all?
Katherine was displeased at Derick.
According to the chain of command, Katherine indeed has the right to punish Donna. But in order to
warn other Generals who are of higher rankings than Donna not to punish Donna, he knew he had to
punish Katherine right here before everyone. It's wrong but he has to.
"Fall like a mango tree!" Derick commanded Katherine. It's a popular type of punishment in the military.
Katherine felt pained hearing him say this. She had done nothing wrong yet he wants to punish her.
She hadn't broken the chain of command yet he wants to punish her, her eyes became bloody and her
heart throbbed.
She brought her two hands together and folded her arms, ready to fall like an overriped mango tree but
a voice suddenly spoke from behind, "stop!"
Stop? Everyone was shocked. Everyone around immediately turned to the direction of the voice that
just spoke, and behold, the two handsome boys who had the same resemblance as the god of war.
They were both dressed in white shirts and black pants trouser alongside a white canvas. Their dark
curly hair shone amazingly under the sun.
A female officer even spoke, "how can a twin be so identical and handsome?"
One could barely know who is who between Michael and Mark.
"And why did they have the same resemblance as Marshall?" Another officer whispered silently.
Derick was stupefied to see the two kids, before he could say a word, Mark spoke, "our mommy had
only come over here to help injured soldiers in your city yet you want to treat her this way, huh?"
The children were well aware of their mother's mission here.
Everyone became scared for the two children. As if they will be shot dead in an instant. Who dared to
talk to the god of war this way? No one! Absolutely no one. What gave these twin the gut?
Derick frowned, he wanted to fling those little ones away for speaking to him in such manner. Whereas,
Donna was shocked to the gut to see the two kids. They had the same resemblance as Derick and they
even called Katherine mommy. So Katherine has a twin? Donna thought in shock. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Her mind then trailed back to the event of seven years ago, herself and Sharon, Ronald's mother had
set Katherine up to be fucked by a male prostitute but unexpectedly, Katherine entered a wrong room
and had the thing with a powerful man.
Donna later found out that the man Katherine slept with was the god of war that was why she had
come to present herself as the woman the god of war had sex with seven years ago before he would
find out it was Katherine. She had no idea that the night stand lead to Katherine's being pregnant.
Thought Katherine was barren? How is it possible for her to conceive and even give birth to twins?
Derick definitely hasn't found out cause if he does, her secrete will be exposed and her end will be
brutal. Donna became very scared and stopped crying at once.
Derick commanded an officer to lead Donna to her house, afterwards, he said to Katherine, "you and
your children have offended me. You all should report to Base 5 by 9PM."
If it were people he didn't have any connections with that dared him like Katherine and her children did,
they probably would have been lying in a pool of blood now. Derick tried to control his anger and
walked away with Alessio.
Everyone was shocked that the god of war didn't press further to punish Katherine and her children.
That was uncommon of the god of war. People didn't understand the sudden changes coming from the
god of war. Everyone only knows about his tough side, people aren't aware that a man like that could
handle situations rationally like this.
Katherine quickly walked up to Mark and Michael who just appeared, "why are you here?"
"We were bored of staying at home so we decided to stroll out," Michael responded.
"You shouldn't have interrupted. You even stopped his command! That's wrong, it's normal for a
superior to punish his subordinate in the military. Now you have got us all in trouble," Katherine said.
The children lowered their face as if they were feeling guilty but actually, they weren't. They were
actually happy they saved their mom from being punished.
When it was 9PM, Katherine stood alongside her two kids at Base 5. It was already dark and no
officers were in sight. The mother and the two kids were all awaiting Derick's punishment.
As for Marie, Katherine had informed her to keep mum at home and Mark, Michael and her would
come home very late.
Precisely ten minutes after 9AM had clocked, a tall figure appeared from the dark. Katherine knew for
certain that it was Derick.
"Your kids may leave. You will serve all their punishment," he said.
"No!" Michael quickly spoke, "let our mom go and punish us."
Where did this woman see these two little rascals, Derick thought.
Katherine held the shoulders of her twin and said, "It's my call, I'm a soldier but you guys are not. Don't
worry, I'll be fine."
Yet, the children were very reluctant to leave. At the end, they agreed to leave and then walked away
sadly. Their house were not far from Base 5.
Katherine then stood still before Derick, awaiting her punishment.
