Salute To The General
Chapter 2293

Out of the corner of his eyes, Bowen saw a few bodyguards removing the body of the man who had been killed by the golfball.

His expression changed ever so slightly.

If the general population of businessmen were cunning wolves, then Quentin was definitely a cruel and evil one.

Scheming and deception were common tactics in the world of business. However, it seemed that the chairman preferred to use violence to resolve his problems.

Even though Quentin loved violence, he was not a stupid man. On the contrary, he was extremely intelligent.

One look and he could tell what Bowen was thinking. With a smile, he said, "Mr. Camden, you must think that I am a very violent man. It's true! My motto is violence cannot solve problems, but it can eliminate problematic people!"

Bowen smiled. There was no denying that he hailed from Eurasia. He disliked the extremes and preferred to settle matters using the golden mean. He replied casually, "Mr. Perez, my purpose in coming here to meet you is to discuss our collaboration."

"Our collaboration will be very straightforward. You acquire Cross Corporation and work with Novah Pharmaceutical Company. We will monopolize the cancer vaccine market and split the profits equally."

Bowen thought to himself. If I can get my daughter to come home and obtain full control of Cross Corporation, why would I still need to work with you?

He responded calmly, "My daughter refuses to acknowledge me as her father. To make matters worse, Nathan is sowing discord between us. There is no way I can seize control of Cross Corporation from my daughter."

A regretful look appeared on Quentin's face. "Mr. Camden, you have encountered some issues! But not to worry, I can finish Nathan off for you. If need be, I will kill your daughter and granddaughter as well. Once your daughter is dead, as her father, you will inherit her company."

Bowen's heart went cold.

He was not as vicious as Quentin. With some hesitation, he replied, "Please don't kill my daughter. You just need to get rid of Nathan and bring her and my granddaughter back to me. I have ways to make my daughter comply."

Quentin shook his head. "You are quite bothersome, Mr. Camden.

Anyway, since that is what you ask for, we will do it your way. However, once we have settled everything, we will split the profits at seventy and thirty. I will get seventy and you, thirty." What?

Bowen widened his eyes in disbelief.

The two men looked at one another in silence.

In the end, Bowen conceded and agreed. "Fine!"

"Great!"

Quentin snapped his fingers and called Kristoff over. "In a few days, the World Peace Prize will be held in Jazona ofjetroina. Penny's company has achieved tremendous breakthroughs in cancer treatments in recent years. She has been nominated for the award. I'm sure she will be attending the ceremony in Jetroina, and most likely, Nathan will be with her. Take Monk and Priest with you to Jetroina. Kill Nathan and bring Penny back."

A bald, muscular Astorian man with a string of prayer beads around his neck walked in with a blond and blueeyed man dressed in a white robe. They appeared next to Kristoff.

The two men were the Monk and the Priest, Quentin's warlords and top fighters of the world.

Initially, Kristoff was scared to face Nathan. Now that he realized his boss had sent the two men with him, he felt much more confident. With a smile, he said, "Don't worry, sir. I will return soon with Nathan's head and bring Penny back, too."

Quentin responded flatly, "People love to lie and give false promises. I hope you won't let me down."

He glanced at Kristoff and continued, "You know the consequences if you disappoint me."

The latter trembled in fear. "Yes, sir. I understand. I won't let you down."

Meanwhile, Nathan and Penny had just finished their dinner back in Channing. They took their daughter for an evening stroll.

Penny smiled. "It has been a long time since the three of us enjoyed such a leisurely time."

Nathan said, "It hasn't been that busy at work. If you aren't busy as well, we can plan for a trip overseas."

Penny shook her head. "I don't think so!"

"Why not? Are you very busy at work?"

"Everything is fine. As the overall in-charge, I only have to supervise those doing the actual work. I have nothing to worry about. But the United Nations has nominated me as one of the contenders for the World Peace Prize. They have invited me to go to Jazona in Jetroina to attend the award ceremony. I am contemplating if I should go."

Nathan was happy to hear that. "The World Peace Prize is something that is highly sought after by many people. It's a lifetime of glory, and you will be famous forever. Since you have been nominated, there is a chance of you getting the award. Of course, you should go." "Their reason for nominating me is because of the liver cancer vaccine and the special medicine that our company has invented. They feel it is a major contribution to humanity. But I'm unworthy of the credits. I think you should have been nominated instead!"

Nathan laughed. "No way. I have fought so many wars that the foreigners treat me like a demon king. Why would they give the World Peace Prize to me? Besides, I feel that you have the right to vie for this award! Since they have nominated you, you have to attend. This is not only for your own glory, but the honor of our country as well."

"I don't really want to go to Jetroina alone. Can you come with me?"

"Sure. Anyway, I have time on my hand. I will go with you."

That night, Nathan instructed Colin and Ava to prepare for the trip to Jetroina.
