Salute To The General
Chapter 1951

Chapter 1951

In the study of his home in Riverside Garden, Nathan eyed the Seven Stars Dagger that Colin brought to him with amusement.

He was anxious to test it out. "This was a gift from Sherman?"

"Yes, it was," Colin replied earnestly.

"General Wilson misspoke, and now Sherman thinks that he has to attend to the Chief Military Governor. He sent the messenger back with these gifts and requested that the dagger be given to you."

"Interesting," Nathan smiled.

"I don't suppose Sherman has any idea that I am the Chief Military Governor."

"No sir, I don't think they do," Colin answered.

"All they know is that the Chief Military Governor is here in Channing to inspect some troops. So he offered up this dagger as a gift to get to know you. If he replaces out that you are the Chief Military Governor, I'd imagine that he will be on his knees begging for forgiveness.”

"The Goldsteins are awfully forgetful," Nathan said. "They never learn their lesson, no matter how many times they have been taught. It's time to completely remove them from relevance."

“Sherman is living at the Blueside Villa for now," Colin reported.

"Other than summoning you and Mrs. Cross to him tonight, he has organized a banquet to suck up to the city's elite, in hopes of them letting him deal with you without interference."

"Against me? He's not worthy." Nathan said coldly.

"General, how should we teach him a lesson? Your word is my command."

Nathan was about to speak when Penny knocked and entered.

"Nathan, something's wrong." she said anxiously.

"What is it?" he replied.

"The Goldsteins are here for revenge. Word on the street is that Mighty Rax has dispatched his son, Sherman Goldstein to deal with us. He ordered us to confess to our crimes!"

"He even invited the city's elite for

his banquet, including my grandfather." "He does not dare cross Mighty Rax, so he attended with his son, my uncle. I heard that Sherman is punishing them to set an example. He made them mourn for Webb Goldstein."

What?

Nathan was shocked and furious at Penny's news.

"The Goldsteins are asking for it. Colin, prepare the cars. We'll go over and have a look."

"Yes sir," Colin said and marched out.

Penny's parents and cousin Kylie are well aware that the Goldsteins are out for revenge, even more so that Penny's grandfather is being

humiliated at Blueside Villa currently.

They were found to be in

distress in their living room.

When Nathan and Penny emerged from the study, they were told that Nathan is going to

rescue the Smiths.

Benson, Penny's father wanted to come along as well.

They, along with Colin, Ava, and the Elite Eight, took off for Blueside Villa in several black SUVs.

The high society of Channing gathered in the garden of the Villa.

Sherman was looking smart in a tailor-made suit. His hair was slicked back, not a strand out of place.

He lounged on a chair, smiling in cold amusement at the kneeling figures of the Smiths.

"Mr. Smith, you mustn't blame me for this. It's your granddaughter and her husband who is at fault. They were the ones who killed my kin!"

"The son's crimes are to be borne by

the father. You, as Nathan's elders, shall take his place and be

punished." "Kneel and face

l

yourselves towards Brimmopolis. Give my cousin the mourning he deserves."
