Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1776

Ivan was washed over by a sense of trepidation when he heard Nathan.

Kylie was mystified by the revelation and looked at Ivan in shock. “I was wondering how you beat the mighty General. So you only defeated him because you resorted to such a despicable act!”

Ivan's face flushed red from fury and embarrassment and chided, “Nonsense! I won him fair and square. He forfeited because he knew he was no match for me!”

Nathan jeered at him, “How dare you say that the General is no match for you when you're such a loser?”

Did he just say I'm a loser?

The prideful Ivan was pissed at Nathan's

remarks.

His eyes flashed with fury, especially since Nathan essentially humiliated him before everyone. He snorted at Nathan, “Lieutenant colonel, it seems like you're not so convinced about what I can do. Why don't we fight this out and settle this once and for all?”

Nathan's lips curled into a smile. “So we're going to just fight?”

“Of course not. We have to throw in some bets to make it fun,” Ivan sneered.

Intrigued, Nathan asked, “What kind of bet are we talking about?”

Ivan thought about how he was utterly humiliated in front of Kylie. Not only he wanted to let Nathan get a taste of his own medicine, but Ivan also wanted to regain his lost dignity.

With that thought in mind, he picked up an ashtray full of ashes and poured it all into a glass of red wine near him.

Pointing at the glass of red wine, he said to Nathan in a devious manner, “Let's fight this out, and the loser has to drink this. Are you up for it?”

Nathan smirked. “Man, you have a peculiar taste. Well, since you fancy this type of drink, I'll gladly fulfill your wish.”

Kylie was overwhelmed at what was about to transpire. Before she could process the whole incident, the two men before her were ready to break into a fight.

The restaurant's staff noticed that the two were about to break into a fight right at the restaurant itself.

Just when they were about to stop them, the restaurant's manager stopped the waiters and security and said to them in a low voice, “That pretty girl over there is Kylie Tonkins, the General's cousin-in-law. Let them fight if they want to. We'd better stay out of it.”

The waiter and security then decided against butting in the matter.

The two men stood facing each other.

Nathan was the first to make a move. He smiled and waved at Ivan, “Let's fight!”
