Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 549

Nathan put down his cutlery politely and used a napkin to clean his hands when he saw Barry and the others walking in.

The Jackson siblings, Barry and Denise, both stared at the tall and charismatic Nathan, whose eyes shone like stars.

For a moment, it felt like Nathan had become even more graceful than his former self when he was still the heir of a wealthy family.

Colin Dunne, the Elite Eight, as well as Thomas Dunn and his bunch of brutal and muscular men stood respectfully behind the prominent Nathan Cross.

Nathan didn't stand up to greet Barry, Sean, or anyone else. Instead, he stared with a skin-deep grin and said, "Barry, it's been so long since we last saw one another."

Back in the days, the Jackson family wanted a piece of the wealth to which Nathan was heir, so they spared no effort to appease members of the Cross family.

Even when Denise was already engaged to Nathan, Barry was still extremely ingratiating and served tea every time Nathan was around.

However, when Nathan was later disowned and lost his privilege as a member of his wealthy family, the Jackson family immediately renounced Nathan's engagement to Denise.

The Jackson family's business had since grown exponentially, and Barry thought that Nathan was no longer worthy of the Jackson family.

Barry scoffed at Nathan. "My, my. The powerful man from the Cross family has since turned into a kept man of the Smith family. Nathan Cross, you have truly fallen far."

Nathan remained calm as he asked, "You came all the way here just to say that?"

Barry replied, "I have a ton of debt to collect from you." "Let's talk about the incident from a moment ago. That subordinate of yours attacked and injured my subordinate, Landon. What do you plan on doing about that?"

Nathan turned to Thomas Dunn.

Thomas had his head up high as he reported loudly, "Mr. Cross, they tried to barge in and attempted to murder me, so I kicked and injured that a**hole."

Nathan then turned to Colin and asked, "What is the punishment for that?"

"Repentance for three days and a month's worth of torturous training," replied Colin grimly.

Nathan nodded. "I agree. Carry out that punishment."

Barry smiled smugly upon hearing that.

Barry's words got all the managers and servers of the restaurant to turn pale.

Penny Smith's family also looked terrible at that moment.

Sean Smith and his family, however, were delighted. They were more than happy to see Nathan getting hurt.

Nathan had a skin-deep grin on. He stared at Barry and teased, "How mighty of you. If I remember correctly, you used to be a training officer for the country's army, right?”

"I will give you one chance since you are a veteran."

"Here are nine of my subordinates. You may choose to fight any one of them. If you win the battle, I will allow you guys to leave Channing."

"And what if I prefer to fight in groups?" scoffed Barry.

Colin Dunne narrowed his eyes as he led the Elite Eight. "My eight subordinates and

I will be more than enough to destroy all of you!"
