Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 319

Hank and Prudence decided that there was no better time than the present, to call Shane Ortiz.

Although Shane felt that the name 'Nathan Cross' was rather familiar, he was unable to remember who it was.

Pushing the niggling feeling aside, he answered, "Uncle, Aunt, I have a really simple idea. I'm currently in Alberesque and not Channing. However, what you can do, is pretend to invite Cross to the Diamond Dynasty to sing karaoke. I can instruct the boss, Daniel, to find an excuse to break both his legs right before you. How does that sound?"

Matching grins of delight split the couple's faces and they hurriedly replied, "That's a great idea! We can personally witness his legs being broken. He wouldn't even know that it was us! Brilliant!"

That night at nine o'clock, Leah received a phone call from Prudence. The latter had suddenly announced that she had felt like singing and she had booked a private room at Diamond Dynasty. She was inviting her younger sister and her family over to join them.

Leah agreed without a second thought. After all, she had always cared very much about her own blood relatives.

Furthermore, this was her actual sister.

Turning to the younger adults, she explained, "Your aunt and uncle are singing karaoke at the Diamond Dynasty now. They want all of us to join them. Nathan, are you guys willing to come with us?”

In all honesty, Nathan was rather reluctant to go.

However, upon seeing the hopeful look in his mother-in-law's eyes, he relented with a smile, "They've come all the way over here, so the least we could do is play our part as hosts. Since they've already booked a room, we might as well go to meet them."

Leah heaved a sigh of relief. She had been worried that Nathan and Penny would not want to go. If only she and Benson went, her sister would have probably said that her family was snubbing them.

Thus, Nathan, Penny, Queenie, Kylie, Benson, and Leah piled into two cars and headed straight for Diamond Dynasty.

Diamond Dynasty, one of the most luxurious karaoke lounges in Channing, was decorated richly, like a palace.

When Nathan and the others arrived, they went straight towards the Jade Room.

The two families sat down to eat, drink, and sing together. In fact, the atmosphere could almost be described as amiable.

At one point, Penny stepped outside to go to the washroom.

Unfortunately, she was halted by a drunken man in the corridor. He mistook her for one of the women working here and insisted that she accompany him to his private room.

His hands reached out with the intent to grope her while he slurred loudly, "You're basically a high-end prostitute. How much is it going to cost for the entire night?"

Furious, Penny gave him a ringing slap across the cheeks. "You hooligan! Have more respect for women!”

Her action had stirred the hornet's nest and a middle-aged man in a floral shirt came barreling toward her aggressively. Following along behind him were more than a dozen men.

He helped the intoxicated man to his feet, glaring at Penny all the while. He shouted, "You b****, how dare you hit my cousin?!"
