Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1333

The next day...

Nathan and Penny walked into the office of Cross Group only to be told that Louis and the other resellers have been released by Zed Walker.

Nathan immediately gave Zed a call to ask him what happened.

Zed sounded horrified over the phone. "Mr. Cross, the Ariarican foreign minister Thompson told us to release them. He's a friend of Wyatt Windsor, so we couldn't refuse him!"

Nathan frowned. "Fine then. I won't trouble you any further."

Zed breathed a huge sigh of relief upon hearing that. If Nathan had ordered him to arrest the resellers again, he would be caught in the crossfire between Nathan and Wyatt.

Nathan hung up the phone.

"What did the police say, Hubby?" Penny asked anxiously.

"The Ariarican foreign minister Thompson ordered the release of Louis and his lackeys, so they have no choice but to obey him."

Penny chuckled sadly. "Looks like we'll have a hard time dealing with those resellers."

Nathan remained silent.

Getting rid of Louis would not be a problem for him since the man was nothing compared to him.

The issue was Wyatt's involvement in the matter.

If Wyatt himself ordered their release, he would be very annoyed should Nathan end up murdering Louis, souring their relationship even further.

Nathan decided to let Louis go this time, for the President and Aunt Camilla's sake.

"I'm letting them off this time, though I doubt they would dare to get in trouble with us again," Nathan told Penny. "If they fall back to their old habits, I'll make sure to track them down."

Penny nodded enthusiastically.

"Penny! Nathan! There's a new restaurant in Channing!" Kylie yelled the moment she barged in. "Apparently, the head chef was awarded three Michelin stars, so why don't we..."

She froze mid-sentence upon noticing what the two of them were up to.

Kylie's expression contorted into something unreadable as she forced herself to finish her sentence. "Shall we... go and try it out later?"

Nathan and Penny pulled away from each other, looking a little embarrassed.

"Ask Nathan,” Penny said, red in the face.

"Alright then," Nathan said with a smile.

"Let's have lunch at that restaurant."
