Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 290

Shannon Russo was flabbergasted at the unexpected situation.

Everyone present was shocked by what was going on.

Shannon Russo stared at Franklin Wilson in disbelief and said, "Mr. Wilson, you..."

Before the woman could finish her sentence, Franklin Wilson had already stepped forward and snatched the revolver away from her hand apathetically.

After passing the revolver to one of the National Guards who was standing next to him, the Major-General took the jewelry box that contained the red ruby necklace from his wife, and walked swiftly towards Nathan Cross.

Holding the box with both hands over his head, Franklin Wilson said to Nathan Cross respectfully, "Mr. Cross, I shall now return this necklace which rightfully belongs to your mother-in-law. Please accept it!”

What the h**l is going on???

Shannon Russo and all the other people were stunned by the man's actions.

Of course, Penny Smith, Sean Smith, as well as the other members of the Smith family were shocked beyond words.

They could never imagine that what Nathan bragged about earlier had really come true!

Franklin Wilson had indeed willingly handed over the red ruby necklace to Nathan Cross.

Most of the guests had their mouths dropped open and had bewildered looks on their faces. Other than the Smith family, the rest of the guests did not know the origin of the precious necklace, but they were shocked at the Major-General's deferential attitude towards Nathan Cross.

After all, Franklin Wilson was from the North Army before he was transferred to the South two years ago.

It was a common understanding that, apart from strength and abilities, those who were from the North Army had a reputation for their arrogance and pomposity.

Although Franklin Wilson was very capable, he was also very haughty.

It was unusual to see him treating someone in such a polite and respectful manner.

As such, everyone was making a wild guess about Nathan Cross's identity.

After returning the necklace to its original owner, Franklin Wilson turned around and surveyed the numerous assassins hired by the Russo family. "Aren't you guys going to drop your weapons? Do you intend to carry out the assault in my presence?" The Major-General shouted at them.

Those assassins had all wanted to put down their weapons and surrender, but they were also afraid to be punished for doing that. As such, the men had all looked towards Shannon Russo for further instruction.

Being held at gunpoint by ten submachine guns, Shannon Russo had intended to order the assassins to surrender.

However, before she could speak, Franklin Wilson had already taken offence that those men did not surrender at once after his command. That roused his anger and he growled, "It seems like you guys are tired of living!"

After Franklin Wilson expressed his rage, two teams of soldiers, who were armed to the teeth, immediately dashed into the hall. There were at least a hundred of them!

The soldiers were carrying loaded guns and surrounded Shannon Russo's subordinates at once, pointing their guns at those assassins.

Without waiting for further instructions from Shannon Russo, those hired guns of the Russo family threw their sabers on the ground instantly and backed down.

It was clear to everyone that Franklin Wilson meant business, and was not just messing around with the Russo family.
