Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1227

The news about the death of Elijah Pierce, the leader of Orcus, travelled fast.

In Brimmopolis, Tristan Westwood, the Major General in the Navy, who recently retired, was feeling exasperated as he sat in his study.

In fact, almost no one was aware that Elijah Pierce's father was Tristan.

Ever since they had a daughter, Tristan's wife didn't bear him another child. In the early days, every family was allowed to have only one child since the nation implemented the one-child policy. Besides, given that he was a prominent high-ranking officer in the Navy, he didn't reveal to anyone that he had another child.

Nevertheless, he had had an affair with another woman, who bore him a son later. He was none other than Elijah Pierce.

Because of his status in the Navy, he couldn't officially recognize Elijah as his son.

Despite that, he took care of Elijah behind the scenes.

In fact, without Tristan's help, Elijah wouldn't have been enlisted in the Dragon Special Force, not to mention receiving intense training to be a martial arts master.

Elijah would have never gotten to know the young masters from the prominent families in the city without his help.

Elijah also couldn't possibly establish Orcus, the largest mercenary army in the nation.

In short, Elijah became a successful and respected figure solely because his father had paved the way for him.

Nonetheless, Tristan never thought that his son would die three days after his retirement.

His heart crumbled into a thousand pieces when he heard the news.

The Westwood family was a traditional prominent family. Besides, Tristan was even more old-school as he believed that having a son was of the utmost importance to the Westwood family.

As such, Tristan had initially decided to recognize Elijah as his son after he retired. He had planned to accept Elijah as part of the Westwood family and select him as the family successor even if others opposed it.

Unfortunately, his son had died as soon as he retired!

Tristan was exasperated; he smashed the rosewood desk and yelled ferociously, "Damn you, Nathan Cross! How dare you kill my son? I'll make sure the Cross and the Smith family will have no children!"

At that moment, someone knocked on the door twice.

She then instructed her underling to get the car ready.

Soon, she arrived at the villa of the Simon family. It was one of the ten prominent martial arts families of the nation.

After Joseph Simon, the young master of the Simon family, invited Yvonne to his study, she asked straightforwardly, "Joseph, I'm here to ask you for a favor."

Joseph was around twenty-seven years old and was slim and good-looking. However, Yvonne could tell that he was not a kind-hearted man judging from his evillooking eyes.

Since Joseph was part of the Simon family, he practiced ancient martial arts and its lethal martial arts techniques since he was a child. As such, he was now regarded as the top martial arts master without parallel.

Having been born into a prominent family, Joseph was almost a perfect man. Furthermore, he was also good-looking and was skilled in ancient martial arts. Nevertheless, he had an Achilles heel -overindulging in sex.

After sizing Yvonne up, who looked gorgeous, he shot her a wry smile and said, "Ms. Westwood, how can I help you?"

Yvonne replied calmly, "Please kill someone for me. His name is Nathan Cross. He's a new entrepreneur from Channing."
