Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 560

The Smiths thought that sacrificing Nathan's life to calm Damon down and begging for forgiveness was their only way to survive.

As such, Sean called Nathan on the phone, "Nathan, you said that if the Griffins come after us, you will protect us and keep us safe."

"Well, the Griffins are bringing an army to destroy us, so get your butt over right away and make good on your promise!"

Nathan chuckled and replied, "Don't worry.

I promised I'll keep the Smiths safe if the Griffins ever show up. I am a man of my word."

Sean scolded him angrily, "Don't speak so freely now. You'd better not run when the time comes!”

Nathan was exasperated as he said, "Why would I?”

Sean scoffed, "Damon got all four Heavenly Generals over and has eight hundred men with him. They have already arrived and even sent someone to tell us to keep our necks clean for the beheading!"

"I know that you are close to Thomas Dunn, so go ask for his help as well as any other help you can get!"

Nathan refuted, "We're only dealing with the Griffins. Do we really need that much help?"

Sean exhaled angrily as his eyes bulged, "What do you mean 'only'? The Griffins are like royalty in the East, and they have invested vast resources and gathered a powerful army to come at us!"

"If you don't get a few more helping hands, then you won't be the only one getting murdered! The Smiths will die, too!"

Nathan seemed to be convinced, and he agreed, "Okay, then I'll get a few more helping hands."

After that, they hung up the phone.

Samuel and the other Smiths gathered around Sean and asked, "What did Nathan say?"

Sean replied, “He said that he would keep us Smiths safe. He even promised to he would get more help."

Samuel and the others shook their heads in disagreement. They claimed that Nathan was too quick to agree to those terms, so it was likely that Nathan would flee without letting anyone else know.

Ferlyn then suggested vilely, "Grandpa, how about we con Penny and the others over? That way, we can prevent Nathan from fleeing because we'd have Penny as a hostage!"

Sean's eyes glowed and he said gleefully, "Ferlyn, you are so smart. Hurry. Let's go get Penny and her family over!"

Sean, Penny, and everyone else came out of the house in surprise when they heard the commotion. They wondered what could've happened.

When they walked out of the house, they were shocked by what they saw in front of them.

Someone had knocked down the gate, and over ten bulldozers had toppled the tall wall.

The Smiths hadn't even regained their composure when the bulldozers moved away after crushing the walls.

A man with thick eyebrows wearing a black tuxedo showed up soon after with an army behind him.

The man in the tuxedo was the head of the Griffins, Damon Griffin.

Denise wore a tight-fitting traditional dress and had slutty make-up on as she hugged Damon's arm.

Standing behind Damon were the four messengers of death—the Heavenly Generals.

Behind them were all eight hundred of Griffins' subordinates.
