Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1394

Nathan's lips curled upwards once he noticed the look Sky had on his face.

They had been sitting in the cars for quite some time as though they were heading to a certain somewhere. Finally, their rides came to a halt.

As soon as their rides stopped, Sky shuddered, feeling a sense of despair deep down. He became afraid of death at the thought that he was one step away from hell.

Sky opened his eyes slowly and asked, "Have we reached the place of execution? Is it time for me to be die?"

Nathan, who was by Sky's side, replied with a smile politely, "Mr. Reilly, why don't you turn around and have a look outside the window?"

Although Sky couldn't fathom what Nathan was up to, he turned around and looked outside as instructed.

They were not on an isolated mountain, nor did they come to an execution ground.

Instead, they had parked in front of Sky's house.

Initially, Sky was shocked. A few seconds later, he turned around and looked at Nathan wrathfully, "General, what exactly are you up to? Why have you brought me here? Do you mean you will involve my family if I refuse to cooperate with you?”

“Huh? Sky, am I such a brutal person in your mind?” Nathan asked rhetorically.

"Aren't you going to threaten me with the wellbeing of my family?" Sky was confused by Nathan's question.

"Seriously? I'm not Lucifer, okay? I will never resort to such a low method!" Nathan replied nonchalantly.

Finally, Sky recalled Nathan's identity as well as his personality. He felt a sense of relief because he was certain Nathan would never use his family to threaten him.

Nonetheless, he couldn't figure out what Nathan was up to. In the end, he asked, "General, why have you brought me here...”

"Isn't it obvious? I'm giving you a ride home! You may leave now." Nathan replied casually.

"What?" Sky was utterly shocked.

Usually, he would have to atone for his sins with death since he had offended the General of the North. In fact, the next generations of Sky's family would be adversely impacted as well. They could never become civil servants in the future, let alone hold important positions in government.

Therefore, Sky couldn't figure out the reason Nathan decided to let him off the hook and set him free after what he had done.

"You are but a pawn; it won't do me any good to take you out. However, I have decided to let you off the hook because I have something else in mind, and hopefully you'll come to your senses soon. I hope you'll join me in defeating Lucifer. I need someone to testify against him for what he has done," Nathan reassured the confused man as he gave the suggestion.

All of a sudden, Sky fell silent. Although he was grateful Nathan had shown him mercy, he couldn't possibly turn his back against Lucifer, to whom he had sworn loyalty.

Since Sky couldn't make up his mind, Nathan beckoned and instructed, "You may leave now. I'll be staying in Bossania for another few days. If you change your mind, feel free to reach out to me. I'll always welcome you."
