Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 75

The trio continued to talk about how Lightning was defeated so easily by Nathan Cross because he had chosen to challenge him one-to-one.

At this moment, the butler entered and reported, "Sir, there is a man named Fernando Larson outside who wishes to see you."

"This crazy man, why is he here again?" Joseph Myers frowned and asked with displeasure.

Samuel Smith asked curiously, "Mr. Myers, what's up?"

He replied casually, "He was one of my men. I heard that he was once in the military in Africa and is numb to killing."

"I saw that he was good at fighting and decided to hire him as my bodyguard last time. However, he kept causing trouble. Last month, he'd fought with someone at the bar and killed three people."

"After that incident, he came to ask for my help. I gave him some money and asked him to flee immediately.”

"I didn't know that he was still in Channing. And now, he's here to look for me again. Does he take me for charity?"

Joseph instructed the butler to tell the bodyguards to chase Fernando out.

However, Samuel Smith stopped him and suggested, "Mr. Myers, since Fernando is so ruthless and he's on the run, why don't we make use of him?"

"What do you mean?" Joseph asked, as a look of confusion could be seen on his face.

With a sly smile, Samuel continued, "Fernando Larson is just an outlaw. Killing one or two more people does not matter to him, considering the number of lives that he has on his hand. Why don't you just give him some money and ask him to kill Nathan Cross?"

Paul added on too, "Exactly. After all, he'd once worked for you. Now that he is in trouble, he might hate you if you kick him out. Just give him some money and ask him to do something for you. It's a winwin."

Joseph pondered over their advice with a gloomy expression. Alas, he nodded, "You two are right. Get the crazy man in.”

The butler responded, "Yes, sir!"

Very quickly, he brought in an averagelooking but rather buff man. It was none other than Fernando Larson.

Just as he stepped into the living room, a few of Joseph's bodyguards stopped him.

They scanned his body with a hand-held metal detector to make sure he was not carrying any weapons before allowing him near Joseph Myers.
