Salute To The General
Chapter 2386

How unreasonable!

A cold glint flashed across Cayden's eyes. The audience could feel the atmosphere becoming oppressive. It was as if their throats were being strangled, making them suffocate. Everyone could tell that Layden was furious.

Hubert did not expect Nathan to be so disrespectful. Not only did he not fear the Norris family, but he also did not show Layden a single ounce of respect. Moreover, he insisted on forcing him to kneel and apologize in front of Cayden. Flustered, he glanced at Cayden and said in a trembling voice, "Cayden..."

Colin said coldly, "Even if your father is here, it's useless. If Mr. Cross wants you to kneel, you won't be allowed to stand."

As he spoke, he moved at lightning speed. He lifted Hubert by the collar, walked to Nathan, and pressed Hubert down. Thud'.

Hubert landed on his knees forcefully on the ground, kneeling in front of

Nathan.

Cayden's expression changed. His fingers twitched as he almost lost control of himself and intervened. However, he suppressed his urge. As he had just returned, he did not want to make a move and create a huge scene. It would not be good for his reputation. After all, he had not officially been appointed the position of Assistant Chief Military Governor. Hence, he did not want anything unexpected to happen.

Forcing Hubert to kneel in front of Nathan, Colin instructed coldly,

"Apologize!"

Through gritted teeth, Hubert snapped, "Who are you to make me apologize?"

Slap!

Before Hubert could finish his sentence, Colin slapped him in the face, stunning him.

He barely had time to react before Colin struck again, slapping him across the cheeks multiple times.

It was so forceful that Hubert's cheek became swollen, and blood filled his mouth. He was completely

dumbfounded.

Colin commanded coldly, "Apologize!"

Hubert had never suffered like this before. His timid nature revealed itself at that moment as he apologized to Nathan weakly, "I'm sorry, Mr. Cross. I was wrong. I shouldn't have spoken so disrespectfully to you, thrown your phone away, and ordered my subordinates to attack." Nathan replied calmly, "Go back and reflect on yourself. Also, since Cheryl doesn't like you, stop pestering her. Get lost."

Although Hubert felt utterly humiliated, he did not dare to say anything. With his injured subordinates supporting him, he escaped pathetically.

Layden glanced at Nathan coldly. "Are you satisfied now?"

Nathan answered nonchalantly, "Isn't it reasonable for him to be punished for his mistakes?"

Layden was about to say something when Nathan continued, "That's why we must not make mistakes carelessly. For some mistakes, an apology is sufficient. However, in other cases, it'll bring great danger to yourself, your family, and the nation. Such mistakes must never be forgiven!" Layden's heart skipped a beat as he stared at Nathan in trepidation. What is Nathan saying? Is he hinting at something?

By then, Nathan had already stood up. He whipped out a phone and passed it to Layden before saying indifferently, "I came in a hurry, so I didn't have time to prepare any presents for you, General Quillen. I got this phone by coincidence, so I'll give it to you now." Layden grabbed it subconsciously, and Nathan left with Colin.

Cheryl bowed at Cayden respectfully before hurrying after Nathan.

Cayden felt even more uneasy.

He glanced at the phone and saw that it was a military phone. At first glance, he immediately noticed that it was a shock-resistance phone used in the Ariarica's military. In fact, only high-ranking officials had the right to use it.

Nathan had even called him using the phone before.

Narrowing his eyes, Cayden figured out what was going on-Nathan suspected that he was a spy.

If that's the case, Nathan must be eliminated.

Cayden passed the phone to his subordinate and announced to everyone else with a smile, "All right! Everything's fine. Continue drinking, everyone!"

With that, he turned around and left. His smile immediately disappeared from his lips as a murderous look filled his eyes.
