Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 462

Penny, together with Benson and Leah, smiled as they shook their heads.

They thought it was impossible for Nathan to board a navy ship, so he must have brought Queenie to an ordinary one and lied..

Their daughter was young and easily fooled by Nathan.

Penny shot him a look as she whispered, "How can you lie to a child?"

Nathan blinked. "I did not. I brought her to a navy ship."

Penny scoffed doubtfully, "Stop lying. That may work on a child but don't try to fool me. I am not that dumb."

Nathan's family returned to Channing after the very enjoyable trip.

However, Dip Turner's plight did anger some people.

It was none other than the century-old, aristocratic family of Alberesque, the

Schulz.

In the South, everyone knew that Dip Turner loved the spotlight and was even named the King of the South.

Nevertheless, there was a saying among the circle of the wealthiest families, "the Kings of the South can be comparable to rivers while the Schulz was like iron."

In other words, many dominated the South came and went like a river, but the Schulz family had always held their position at the top.

Although Dip Turner appeared to be King of the South, he was actually the spokesperson for the Schulz family.

Over the century, in every generation of the Schulz family, there were people who held important roles in Northania.

In order to uphold their reputation, the Schulz family could not carry out immoral behaviors, such as money laundering, themselves. Therefore, they had to arrange for someone else to handle these things for them instead.

They labeled people who helped with their illegal activities as their "white glove".

Though Dip Turner was a multi-billionaire, most of his assets actually belonged to the Schulz family and he was just managing these assets for them.

Now, their "white glove" had lost their money, and he had even fled overseas.

This made Vance, the head of the Schulz family, especially angry.

Patrick summoned his courage and relayed what had happened. He told Nathan that Dip was actually the "white glove" for the century-old, aristocratic family of the South, the Schulz family.

He specialized in helping the Schulz family with money laundering and the management of their finances.

Though on the surface, those assets seemed to be Dip Turner's, a great portion of it actually belonged to the Schulz family.

There were brilliant people from every generation of the Schulz family that held important positions in Northania.

Currently, there were many descendants of the Schulz family who were highly involved with the military and political circles in Northania. They were very powerful and none in the South could rival them.

After Vance found out that their "white glove" had run off and even donated billions to the South Provincial City Council, he was enraged.

He demanded the assets to be returned to the Schulz family immediately.

Nathan's expression turned gloomy. "Are you telling me you were intimidated by the Schulz family and gave those funds back to them?"

Patrick responded in shame, "The Schulz family is the most powerful family in the South, with a century-old reputation. In addition, many of their family members hold important positions in Northania. I still have six months in this position and I really don't wish to provoke them."

His voice grew softer, and he finally muttered, "That is why I returned fifty billion in cash to the Schulz family."
