Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1775

Ivan's eyes grew wide with bewilderment. “Who do you think you are, little rascal? I can crush you with just a finger.”

He whipped out his military ID and slapped it on the table as he sneered at Nathan, “I'm a major in the East military, Ivan Liam. Let me see your ID right now. You're not showing me any respect, and according to military rules, I reserve the right to punish you.”

Nathan replied in an icy tone, “Are you sure you want me to show you my ID? You'd better think twice, lest you regret it.”

Ivan snorted. “I've never known regret in my life. You're just a lowly soldier while I'm a major. How dare you insult me? Rascal, you're good as done.”

Kylie was flabbergasted at Ivan trying to provoke Nathan.

Ivan was unfazed by Nathan's threat and said adamantly, “Yes, I'd like to see your soldier ID right now.”

Just as he was done talking, Nathan waved his hand and something was hurled right at Ivan's face.

The latter was stumped and reached out to catch the item in a swift motion.

Furious, he gritted through his teeth, “Are you trying to ambush me?”

Nathan was bemused. “You're not worth the effort.”

Ivan was rendered speechless as he seethed with anger.

Lowering his head, he noticed that the item hurled at him was a military ID instead of a soldier ID that he thought befitted Nathan.

He was stumped. He thought that Nathan, a lowly soldier would only have a soldier ID instead of a military ID.

At a glance of the military ID, much to Ivan's surprise, Nathan was a lieutenant-colonel.

This meant that the lowly soldier was in fact a rank higher than himself.

What the hell?

Ivan was perplexed by the turn of events.

He lifted his gaze and looked at Nathan in disbelief. Beyond his wildest imagination, the unassuming man before him was a lieutenant colonel of the North Army.

Ivan hurriedly fumbled with ID, frantically looking for proof to confirm that it was a fake one.
