Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 314

After the Smiths left, the Tonkins paid a visit to Yancy in his hospital room.

Hank began to berate Yancy almost immediately. "Yancy, what's wrong with you? You mean you can't even beat some random thug?"

"I know right? How are you going to win Penny over now?" Prudence added.

Yancy's face was flushed as he growled, "Nathan Cross cheated!"

Everyone was shocked by this sudden statement. "Why?" they asked in unison.

"Fabian took a punch from me, so he must have been gravely injured then," Yancy huffed.

"If I hadn't punched him first, Nathan Cross wouldn't have been able to strike him down!"

Kylie was skeptical of her cousin's claim.

Even after taking a hit, Fabian could still snap her cousin's wrist and throw him across the room. There was no way he could have done that if he had been seriously injured.

However, the Tonkins couple believed Yancy's tale wholeheartedly.

Their eyes widened in surprise. "I knew it! That scumbag got lucky!"

"You're the one who injured him! Nathan Cross was just finishing your job!"

"He stole your limelight!"

The Tonkins' words made the angry flame in Yancy's heart burn even brighter. "I won't let him go so easily! I'll expose the clown within him and win Penny over!"

After hearing about Yancy's predicament in detail, he scowled angrily. "How dare that Nathan Cross take advantage of you! I'm going to beat him up now! If he can't defeat me, I'll punish him severely for stealing your limelight!"

After that, he called up a few of his friends and took Yancy out from the hospital. They got into a car and headed straight for Riverside Garden.

Meanwhile, Riverside Garden's plaza was quiet and peaceful, with groups of people taking their peaceful evening stroll.

Suddenly, two military Jeeps pulled up beside the entrance, attracting much attention from the people strolling about.

Nathan had been sitting on his couch watching TV when someone slammed their fist against his door and yelled, "Come out and face the music, Nathan Cross!"

Penny turned pale immediately, thinking that someone from Alberesque had come to reap Nathan's soul.
