Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 893

Now that the entire fiasco was over, Johann and the various leaders bade their goodbyes and left.

Nathan, Penny, and Kylie returned to their hotel suite.

They had only just stepped inside the living room when Penny could not hold back any longer. She asked worriedly, "Nathan, who were those people earlier? Why did they want to arrest you?"

"Those men are from the military. Fletcher Harvey must have contacted them for help to deal with me," he answered with a smile.

Even more concerned now, Penny suggested, "Nathan, maybe we should ask the mayor to look into the case. You should probably stop involving yourself in these things. I feel like Fletcher Harvey and the others are too influential here in the West. It worries me that they're even able to get the military to come after you.”

Nathan's voice replied softly, "The Chamber of Commerce of the West has been around for many years. Their reach spans the entire West with connections everywhere, be it the military, politics, or even the underworld. The mayor was only recently appointed here. With him having to answer to the governor, there are still limitations on what he can do. That's why only I can handle this business with the Chamber of Commerce."

At this point, he paused and gave her a comforting reassurance. "Don't worry. Your husband is now the head of the Cross family. While the Chamber of Commerce of the West did much damage to our family, we're not yet completely helpless. Besides, I have connections in the military, too. I'll deal with Fletcher and the rest myself. Please don't worry, Penny.”

Penny wrapped her arms around him and buried her head in his chest, whispering, "You know, after everything that's happened, my family is the most important thing to me. Please promise me you'll be careful. I'm so scared something will happen to you."

"Relax, I'll be fine. I still owe you a magnificent wedding ceremony, and we still need to have a son together!" he murmured with a grin.

In an instant, her face flushed bright red. She hissed, "Kylie's just over there! Don't you have the slightest bit of shame?"

Sitting on a nearby couch playing with her phone, Kylie shook her head. "Lalala, I don't hear anything! I don't know anything! You two can just continue. Don't mind me!"

If that was even possible, Penny's face turned even redder. She darted over to tickle Kylie in revenge, saying, "You weirdo!"

Giggling madly, the two women were soon engrossed in a tickle fight.

Shaking his head in exasperation, Nathan left the ladies and went to take a shower.
