Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 612

Soon, John had returned from singing.

He saw that Kylie had a terrible expression and that Nathan had been smiling ever since he started singing, as though he was mocking him.

He suspected that Nathan had badmouthed him in front of Kylie.

After that, he took a seat and smiled, "Haha, I hope you guys didn't mind my poor singing."

Nathan smiled, "You sang well."

However, he did not comment about the poor choice of song.

John noticed that Nathan had been mocking him earlier, so now that he complimented him, he felt that Nathan was just being sarcastic.

Then, he questioned, as if to test the waters, "Mr. Cross, what are your parents working as?"

Nathan replied plainly, "My parents are no longer with us. Now, I have a position in my wife's company and live one day at a time."

"Hehl" John chuckled. Nathan's parents are dead.He's an orphan, so what kind of family background can he have?

That chuckle made Nathan furious.Excuse me, butvihy are you laughing when I told you that my parents were dead?

Penny and the others frowned as well.This guy has a sick sense of humor!

John did not notice the changes in their expression and continued haughtily, "Nathan, you're not much older than me. You need to be more ambitious. Look at me. I'm from a rich family, but I struck it out on my own. Not to brag, but I know influential people from all over the nation. In Channing alone, I know the owner of this restaurant, Thomas Dunn! The king of the underworld and food and beverage tycoon calls me Mr. Caulkin respectfully and offers me cigarettes!"

Penny and the others had a strange expression. They knew that Thomas Dunn was Nathan's subordinate, who was particularly obedient to him.

Nathan smiled, "Do you know Thomas Dunn?"

John was taken aback. He was just bragging.

In fact, even though he was rather rich, he was not fit to even talk to an influential man like Dunn.

However, since he had said this, he could only continue pretending all the way. He would not disgrace himself in front of Kylie.

John laughed, "Of course I do! Dunn might be powerful in Channing, but he's worthless in front of me and obeys my every command!"

Nathan chuckled, "Is that so? In that case, you're quite the man."
