Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 732

After that, Kenny wanted to have a few drinks with Nathan as compensation for the actions of his son.

However, Nathan waved his hand and refused, saying he wanted to eat with his family undisturbed.

Knowing a dismissal when he saw one, Kenny left with his son and subordinates.

Nathan, Penny, Kylie and the executives of Cross Group returned to their dinner.

Unable to contain herself anymore, Penny questioned Nathan about why the mayor was so polite to him.

The rest of the employees also looked at him curiously as they waited for his answer.

Smiling, Nathan explained, "Have you forgotten I used to be one of the Cross family? At the time, Kenny was still an ordinary official of the city. The Cross family helped him a lot then, and so he's always been very courteous to me. I know the Wates have always been very strict

when it came to discipline, so when I knew Shawn was his son, I called him to come deal with his wayward son."

Understanding dawned on Penny's face and she complimented, "Even being a mayor did not stop him from being strict with his child. How commendable!"

The employees nodded their heads fervently in agreement.

Kylie discreetly pursed her lips. As if the mayor would discipline his own son like that if it weren't for Nathan's identity as General of the North. Besides, if Kenny were truly so strict normally, his son would not have been so arrogant and impetuous in the first place!

After dinner, they were preparing to drive back to their hotel when Penny's phone rang.

When she saw that it was an unknown number, her brows furrowed slightly.

Despite that, she accepted the call. For the next few seconds, she listened to the other person talk before her face fell.

Noticing her odd expression, Nathan frowned. "What's wrong?"

Her face was upset as she shook her head. "That was Liam Lane. He said he wants to buy off Cross Group at a low price and insisted I head over tonight to sign the contract. Otherwise, none of us shall be leaving Cledondale alive."

A dangerous glint appeared in Nathan's eyes but it was gone in the next second.
