Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 731

Back on Nathan's side of things, the large group of people had moved into the Celestial Room. Shawn, Ivy and the rest of his friends were still pushing for Nathan to kneel and bark like a dog.

Suddenly, Kenny burst into the room with his underlings.

Shawn's eyes bulged in shock. His voice was faint when he asked, "Dad, why are you here?”

The other people in the room were equally astonished to see the mayor.

Ivy, in particular, was absolutely stunned. She had not expected one phone call from Nathan would be enough for her boyfriend's father, the most powerful man in Cledondale, to come running over like an obedient puppy.

Fear shone in her eyes as she stared at Nathan.

To her, he had suddenly become quite the enigma.

Kenny pushed his son aside and headed for Nathan. Coming to a stop before him, he bowed low in an uncharacteristic gesture of respect. "Mr. Cross, I'm not late, am I? Might I ask why you asked me to come here in such a hurry? What are your instructions?”

Instructions?

Once more, everyone was flabbergasted.

Just who was Nathan Cross if even the mayor had to be so deferential to him?

Noticing how Kenny was drenched with sweat, Nathan smiled and said, "Wipe your sweat away first and then let's talk."

"Yes, okay!”

Kenny hastily took out his handkerchief and haphazardly mopped the sweat off his forehead.

When he was done, Nathan spoke up, "I called you here because your son insisted I give up the Celestial Room to him. He also ordered me to kneel and bark like a dog before he would let me leave. What are you going to do about this?"

Kenny's face paled drastically when he heard that and he gulped.

He could have wept at his stupid son's actions. How dare you order the General of the North to do such a humiliating thing! Do you have a death wish, you fool?!

Fury welled in him and he spun around to glare daggers at his son.
