Salute To The General
Chapter 2245

Unfortunately, there was no use crying over spilled milk.

And the same went for Jameson and Deckard.

It was already too late for any sort of regret.

"Now, it's your turn," Nathan said coldly while staring at Jameson's group.

Jameson's expression changed in an instant as he opened his mouth to stutter. "General, I-I was f-foolish, and I have g-greatly offended you. Please forgive m-my mistakes, and let us g-go just this once!"

"That wasn't what you said earlier. You told me you are the law, and things would not end well for me if I offended you. Also, I clearly remember that you said you have a hundred ways to make my life a living hell," Nathan replied.

Jameson's heart started to palpitate as he heard those words. In fact, he nearly passed out on the spot.

However, he also knew that now wasn't the time to fall unconscious. Besides, if he died in a coma, the problem still wouldn't be solved, and his sons would be in trouble.

Plop!

He instinctively knelt in front of Nathan and cried bitterly as he begged for mercy. "Mr. Cross, 1 was wrong. I ran my mouth recklessly, and I should be punished..."

At that, he raised his hand and started slapping his own cheeks relentlessly.

The sight shocked Deckard and Amelia, so they also knelt down in fear. They were trembling and sweating profusely, afraid to lift their heads.

Nathan said to Jameson, "Oh, just stop with the act already. Just so you know, I'll let the Department of Justice about your misdeeds. Head to the Department of Justice tomorrow to confess your wrongdoings and accept your punishment. Can you do that?"

Jameson hesitated. However, when he raised his head to look at Sage next to Nathen, he could only answer conscientiously, "Yes, Mr. Cross!"

After that, Nathan turned his gaze toward Deckard, who was kneeling next to him, and said coldly, "Why are you lowering your head. Raise your head!"

Deckard had no choice but to raise his head to look at Nathan fearfully.

Then, Nathan said indifferently, "Do you remember-I once said that if you want me to lower my head, you'll have to kneel and look up to me to see it. Now, your wish came true."

That sentence from Nathan rendered Deckard full of embarrassment.

Nathan added, "I also remember you saying that you would break my legs, yes?"

Hearing that, Deckard's face paled drastically. He trembled in fear and said, "No, Sir..."

Nonetheless, Nathan continued hostilely, "Don't be a coward. It will only make people look down on you. A man should always stand by his words and have the courage to own up to what he said." Deckard wanted to be a man of his words, but he feared that Nathan would break his legs after admitting it.

Thus, he didn't dare to admit or deny it at that moment. He did what his father used to do to gain sympathy by kowtowing and begging for mercy. "Mr. Cross, I'm sorry. I was wrong.

Please forgive me..."

Everyone looked at Deckard's pitiful

sight as he kowtowed and begged.

Especially Amelia. She had an unfathomable expression on her face. Earlier, she betrayed Amos and sided with Deckard because he was rich and powerful.

However, looking at Deckard, who was now groveling pitifully like a dog in front of Nathan, caused her to have mixed feelings.

At that moment, Nathan looked at Amelia and coldly said, "What good is it to be with a coward who wears a suit and drives a Mercedes-Benz?

"In times of danger, they would cower in fear of death. All they knew was how to kneel and prostrate, begging for mercy. Do you think this weakling will protect you when danger comes knocking at your door? Is he someone worth entrusting your whole life to?"

Amelia went pale, and she had a blank look on her face.

Meanwhile, Nathan beckoned toward Amos, who had changed into a major's uniform.

Then, he pointed to Amos in his uniform and said to Amelia coldly, "Despite having no money, he is definitely a good man. It's a pity that you couldn't see that."

Amelia looked at the dashing officer in front of him and recalled all the good things about Amos before breaking down into tears.

"Amos, I was wrong. Please give me another chance. I still love you..."

A surge of mixed emotions went through Amos' mind. However, he took a step back and dodged Amelia's attempt in hugging his leg.

"I'm sorry, but we can't go back to the way it was. You're no longer the pure and beautiful Amelia I knew. Also, I've decided to dedicate the rest of my life to the army. We should just walk our separate paths from now on."

Nathan patted Amos on the shoulder and uttered, "Let's go."

Then, Nathan left with everyone.

Only Amelia, who was still crying her heart out, the Camden father and son, who had fallen in despair, and a group of security guards exchanging looks of dismay were left at the scene.
