Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 531

Jaxon Schulz felt terribly humiliated, as if he had just been literally smacked across the face.

Even Zach Hill was courteous with him, and yet Colin Dunne — a mere colonel — dared to disrespect him.

He had only just boasted to everyone that one word from him was all that was needed for the military to release his brother and the others. He even said they would deliver Nathan over to him for punishment.

And yet Colin completely disregarded him. Jaxon could feel his face burning red.

The tactless Sebastian Schulz had to speak up. "Uncle Jaxon, you were snubbed by a little colonel?"

Jaxon's face grew even redder; he turned and gave Sebastian a death glare.

Vance Schulz chided Sebastian, "You don't get a say here. Get out.”

Sebastian's face paled and hurriedly left the hall.

Vance looked at Jaxon. "Son, looks like Colonel Dunne is adamant in protecting Nathan Cross. What do you think about this?"

All the members of the Schulz family turned to look at Jaxon.

"Colin Dunne is just a reckless meathead, so he doesn't know any better. But Nathan should. I'll call Nathan and have him release Bart and the others immediately. I'll make him come to beg us for forgiveness.”

Vance and the rest were pleased and nodded in acknowledgment. "Good! Very good."

Jaxon soon got his hands on Nathan's phone number and placed a call to the latter directly.

"Nathan, release my brother, Bart, immediately, then come over in person to beg for forgiveness, or..."

Nathan and Penny were about to turn in for the night at the Lunar Lagoon Inn when he received this call from Jaxon.

He didn't even wait for Jaxon to finish before coldly telling him to get lost. Nathan then hung up straight away.

The sudden hanging up of the call was additional humiliation for Jaxon, who by now could barely keep his head raised.

Everyone around Jaxon looked at each other apprehensively; they had all heard Nathan telling Jaxon to get lost.

Vance was stunned, too. "Son, is this Nathan really that arrogant?"
