Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 2055

Soon, Ghost King arrived hastily with his subordinates to meet Nathan.

Nathan said coldly, “Joaquin Landry, can you explain to me what is going on?”

Joaquin Landry was the Ghost King's real name!

Joaquin sweated profusely but put on a smile as he said, “General, please calm down. I can explain.”

He paused for a while and continued, “Actually, everyone knows that Huck's abstract painting isn't worth that much. You're just pissed at Ms.

Shae!”

Colin interrupted coldly, “Is it how you justify letting Shae take away the abstract painting that General bid?”

Nathan didn't respond to it but said blandly, “Joaquin, since you've been in the black market for many years, I'm sure you've made a lot of money, right?”

Joaquin was taken aback, for he didn't understand what he meant.

After a while, he answered carefully, “I've been in this business for twenty to thirty years but haven't made a lot of money. Fortunately, I can still bring home the bacon because my friends

from different backgrounds support me."

Nathan nodded and said, “Since you've been in the business for decades and earned a lot of money, you should consider retiring.”

What?

Perplexed, Joaquin's face was drained of all colors.

Nathan wants me to shut down the Ghost Auction House!

Shocked and angry, Joaquin exclaimed, “General, you...
