Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 2118

Penny hesitated at his offer.

Clifford was the Cabinet secretary who wielded immense influence while the Davier family was the most prominent family in Eurasia and was terribly powerful.

She was extremely worried that Nathan couldn't defeat the Davier family and would lose his life.

Cognizant of the situation, Ava advised immediately, “Mrs. Cross, don't take the bait by handing them the shares of Cross Group. The General definitely has a plan. You have to believe in him.”

When Valois saw that Penny was in a dilemma, he knew he had a chance. He had long planned to obtain the shares in Cross Group. As to whether they would kill Nathan in the end, it

would still be entirely up to them.

However, he didn't expect Penny's bodyguard, Ava, to foil his plans by advising Penny to decline his offer, causing him to fume in anger.

“Who do you think you are? You are speaking out of turn.”

“Men, seize her!”

Upon his command, the men in suits prepared to attack Ava.

Given that there were so many of them, Penny was worried that Ava couldn't manage. She shouted immediately, “Stop!”

Valois' subordinates stopped in their tracks and looked to him for further instructions.

Valois squinted his eyes, “Mrs. Cross?”

Penny added, “I agree to your demands.”

Ava panicked when she heard, it, “Mrs. Cross!”

Penny asserted, “Don't say another word. I have made my decision.”

Just as she spoke, Penny looked in Valois' direction. “I can transfer all the shares in Cross Group to the Davier family. But you must guarantee that my husband will be spared.”

Overjoyed, Valois readily agreed. “That goes without saying. I am a man of my word and it's worth its weight in gold.”

Penny replied, “Very well, where shall we sign the contract?”

Valois answered with a smile, “My company's office is nearby. We will escort both of you there.”

Penny snapped, “Alright.”

Penny snorted, “Stop wasting time. Let's go!”

Valois remarked, “In that case, please get in the car. But, I must request your bodyguard to hand over her weapon.”

Penny ordered Ava to comply.

She reluctantly handed over her weapons which consisted of a pistol and triangular bayonet.

Valois warned her not to do anything rash. Or else, Penny might lose her life in the event a fight broke out.

Next, Valois and his men escorted Penny and Ava into his car. There were tens of them in total as they gradually left the parking lot in a convoy.

At the Headquarters of the Chief Military Governor.

Nathan was reading in the study when Colin barged into the room nervously. “General, something has gone wrong. We have received distress signals from Mrs. Cross and Ava. Both of them must be in trouble.”

Nathan's expression darkened as he ordered, “Track them down immediately. I'm heading over at once. Also, instruct Sage to get the Felidae Battalion ready to deploy.”

Colin replied, “Right away!”
