Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 727

Stepping out of Springfield, the group drove back to their hotel.

On the way there, Penny sighed and complained, "Who would have thought the Lane family would be so unreasonable and demanding? Not only did they not have any intention of working with us, but they also even tried to ask for more! How outrageous!"

"There are plenty of other prominent families and companies in Northania. Don't worry," Nathan comforted with a smile.

"Yeah. Looks like this trip is not going to be easy, is it?"

"All good things take time. I'm supremely confident in our liver cancer vaccine.

There's bound to be someone out there who knows a treasure when they see it and would be willing to cooperate with us.”

Penny nodded, murmuring, "You're right." At the hospital, a doctor was talking to Liam. "Mr. Lane, Phillip has suffered several major injuries. His kneecaps are broken, his jawbone is shattered and he has a severe concussion."

Liam snarled, "Don't tell me what injuries he has, just tell me if he can be cured!"

"Even if he does recover, he will be a drooling mess for the rest of his life."

Liam and the rest of his men were stunned at the news.

The doctor was obviously saying that Phillip would end up a cripple - if he even recovered in the first place.

A stony expression appeared on Liam's face as hatred gleamed in his eyes.

Wayne queried, "Sir, what do we do now?"

Liam spat out furiously, "We can't let the Cross couple go just like that. Let's go to the Lane ancestral home. I need to speak with our patriarch, Xander. He will decide what to do."

At the backyard garden of the Lane ancestral home.

Dressed in comfortable linen clothing, a man in his sixties was sitting in the pavilion as he plucked away at a lute.

Outside the pavilion, two men were staring each other down as they measured their opponent.

Dressed in light blue clothing, the one on the left was called Luan while the one on the right, dressed in pale yellow, was called Solis.

Together, they were called Deus Aster and were Xander's best fighters. In fact, they were well-known for being the two best fighters in Northania, bar none.

Instantly, Solis and Luan stopped their battle.

Xander's voice was indifferent as he called out, "Liam."

In response, Liam hurried forward and kneeled in front of the pavilion. In a respectful tone, he pleaded, "My lord, my son died horribly and my family was bullied and humiliated badly. Please offer me your advice!"

Knitting his brows, Xander asked, "Someone actually dared to pick on the Lane family? What happened?”

Liam swiftly told him everything that had happened.

Xander narrowed his eyes as he stated, "Their arrogance has no place

in our territory. Liam, take Deus Aster with you and meet with the Cross couple. Tell them you're buying over Cross Group at a low price. If they refuse, kill them all."

"Yes, my lord!" Liam answered excitedly.
