Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1143

As Nathan watched the Lindberg family tremble while kneeling on the ground, memories of his mother flashed through his mind.

If he extinguished the Lindberg family now, his mother would probably not be happy.

Hence, Nathan looked at them coldly and slowly said, "Remember, I had said before that it only takes one word from me for your family to be extinguished."

The faces of the Lindberg family turned pale. Nathan had indeed said such a thing before, but they had thought he was only bragging. Now, they finally knew he really had the power to do so.

Seeing that no one dared say anything, he continued, "Normally, if someone dared to hold my daughter hostage and use her happiness as a bargaining chip, I would have wiped them out. However, since you were my mother's relatives, I will not kill you."

Everyone belonging to the Lindberg family kowtowed to Nathan in a hurry. "Thank you, thank you, General..."

Nathan snorted coldly, "Don't thank me just yet. I haven't finished. You can avoid death, but you can't avoid punishments! I order the Lindberg family to retire for ten years from now on!”

He then proclaimed, "Everyone in the Lindberg family will not be allowed to engage in politics or business for the next ten years. Except for the children who are going to school, everyone must stay home and reflect on themselves behind closed doors! Reflect on your mistakes. Learn what familial affection is. Learn how to behave properly and start cultivating the right values."

"Ten years from now, if the Lindberg family becomes cultured and educated, the family will be able to go out and do business again!"

Everyone in the Lindberg family was dumbfounded.

They had to retire for ten years and not engage in business of any sort. Everyone except the children must learn morals and etiquette at home.

The Lindberg family would surely suffer heavy economic losses!

They would have most likely fallen out of the wealthy families' social circle if that were to happen in the next ten years.

General Long snorted coldly, "It's already a blessing for you that the General didn't wipe out your family.”

Camilla looked at Nathan thoughtfully before she plainly told everyone in the Lindberg family, "The General is not punishing you. He is saving your family.”

"By having your family retire for ten years and essentially imprisoning all of you from going out, it is to force you to stay home and learn moral etiquette. After ten years, you all would have become knowledgeable and wise. Why wouldn't your family rise again?"

The Lindberg family Matriarch's eyes lit up, and she looked at Nathan in surprise.
