Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1808

“Hi, beautiful. Mind for a drink?”

Penny raised her head in astonishment. She looked at the stranger in front of her and politely refused, “I'm sorry. I don't drink...”

Maverick nodded slightly. Then he turned around and asked for the waiter and replaced the drink on the tray with orange juice.

Then, he smiled at her and answered, “Orange juice it is, then! My treat!”

When he just finished his words, a cold voice spoke, “She doesn't drink orange juice either!”

Maverick and his men frowned and turned to look at once.

Penny exclaimed delightfully, “Nathan!”

It was Nathan's voice indeed.

Maverick scowled at him. “Sir, I was asking this lady over here, not you.”

Nathan replied indifferently, “I know. I'm responding in her place.”

Maverick smirked. “Sir, who are you to speak on her behalf? Is she your wife?”

Nathan responded icily, “Yes, she is.”

Maverick was taken aback by his words, but he immediately smiled wickedly. “Alright then, how about I buy her a drink?”

The people around were shocked at Maverick's cheekiness and stared at him unbelievingly. How dare this guy flirt with one's wife so boldly? He really crossed the line!

Maverick grinned boastfully at Nathan. Well, I'm the son of the wealthy Douglas family in the West anyway! I can do as I please!

Burning in rage, Nathan glared at the man murderously.

Maverick panicked and had a premonition of imminent disaster.

Nathan had already raised his hand and punched him.

Smack!

His fist caused Maverick to spit out a mouthful of blood along with some broken teeth, and he fell heavily on the ground.

He glared at Nathan with fright and anger and declared sternly, “How dare you hit my men and me! Don't you know that I'm Maverick Douglas, the future successor of the Douglas family in the West? I'm warning you: You're in big trouble.”

Nathan replied coldly, “I don't care who you are or where you're from; you're nothing to me.”

Maverick trembled with rage. “Fine! I'll call someone right now, so you'd better not regret your actions!”

Since the Douglas family was influential in the West, Maverick had connections even in Brimmopolis.

He took out his phone and called his cousin, Quent Douglas.

Quent was the personal bodyguard of Clifford, the Cabinet secretary, and was Clifford's trusty assistant.

All dignitaries were in reverence to Quent when they saw him.

Therefore, it would be nothing for his cousin to deal with Nathan.

“Quent, I was beaten in Red Hotel. Come avenge me quickly!”

After he hung up, he looked up at Nathan and smirked, “Boy, you don't know what kind of trouble you just got yourself into; you're doomed.”
