Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 2045

At the end of the antiquities market, stood an extravagant manor.

The sign above the entrance stated Amber Room.

This was where one of the King of the Underworld, Hansel Yaeger lived.

Nathan, Colin, along with battered Yardley with bloodstain still on his chin, got out of the car.

Nathan looked at the big house. “So Hansel lives here?

Yardley glanced at Nathan. “Yes, he lives here with his subordinates all year long. This is his base of operation.” “Hansel is not someone you can mess with.

“You can still leave now before you regret.”

Nathan smirked, “That won't do. I have to get the abstract painting back at all costs.

“Go knock on the door and bring me to meet Hansel.”

Yardley had no choice but to brace himself and pressed the doorbell.

Soon, the door to the manor house was opened by a middle-aged man with a frown.

He asked irritatedly, “Yardley, didn't Hansel tell you to leave Brimmopolis and lie low once you got the money?

“How come you're back here?”

Yardley awkwardly explained, “Lenny, I have two friends here who wanted to meet with Hansel to

buy Huck's abstract painting.”

Lenny scrutinized Nathan and Colin with a dubious expression.

He said after a moment of hesitation, “I have to ask if Hansel wants to meet them.”

He called Hansel on his phone.

Once the call ended, he said, “Hansel is willing to see you both!”

He led the way right after.

“I have told you earlier on that Hansel was not someone you can mess with, but you wouldn't listen. Are you regretting your decision now?”

Nathan's face had remained neutral at Yardley's question.

As they entered the room, they noticed the room was extremely spacious!

A fat man with a large frame dressed in a flowery pattern shirt sat on a chair, cursing continuously and cleaning his bloodied hands with a white handkerchief.

He was surrounded by eight brawny subordinates dressed in suits.

Hansel was the fat man in the middle.

Hansel's gaze flickered past Nathan and Colin focusing on Yardley. “Yardley, didn't I ask you to leave once you got the money? Why are you still in Brimmopolis?”

Yardley trembled in fear as he explained, “Hansel, it's not that I don't want to leave, but these two stopped me from leaving.”

Hansel's eyes darted towards Nathan and Colin.

His gaze was as if they were dead meat.
