Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1328

When Andy and Fion heard Nathan's warning, their faces fell and fear rippled through them.

They thought they could manipulate Wyatt to deal with Nathan and Penny, but now, they realized that they were way over their heads.

If they were exposed, they and their families would be annihilated.

However, there was no turning back now. All they could do was to follow through with their act.

Fion retorted, "I don't know what you're talking about."

Andy snorted, "Don't try and sow discord in our relationship with Wyatt. Wyatt himself can differentiate who his real friends are and who are the ones that are disrespecting him."

Turning towards Wyatt, Nathan noticed that the former was staring daggers at him.

That was when Nathan realized that the animosity Wyatt felt for him must have been accumulating for a long time.

It was impossible for Wyatt to view him with such hostility over a mere auction. Hence, Nathan was certain that Wyatt must have despised him long before this.

At that moment, Nathan couldn't help but recall an old rumor.

The President had chosen to groom Nathan over Wyatt. In the end, Nathan became the General of the North while Wyatt was left out in the cold.

Is that rumor true?

Is that the reason why Wyatt hates me?

Nathan didn't want to put too much thought on the matter because he knew he would never be able to pay the debt of gratitude that he owed the President and Aunt Camilla either way.

Even if Wyatt chose to be hostile to him, he would simply ignore the animosity.

Hence, he said to Wyatt, "Wyatt, you're a smart man. I'm sure if you think calmly about it, you will know who your friends are and who is just trying to manipulate you. Anyway, I'm taking my leave.”

With that, Nathan and Penny left together.

Wyatt could only watch their retreating figures with an ugly expression etched on his face.

Meanwhile, Andy remarked, "Wyatt, this guy only respects your parents. It's obvious that he doesn't take you seriously. In his eyes you are but a rich spoilt kid!"

Fion added, "Wyatt, who is he? How dare he talk to you like that?"

Wyatt replied lividly, "He is one of the dogs that my father has groomed."

"Sooner or later, I'll show him."

Andy and Fion persistently tried to inflame the animosity between Wyatt and Nathan. However, they didn't dare to overdo it for fear of being found out. They would be finished if that happened.
