Chapter 694 Confrontation

That very moment, the servant brought out some ink and paper.

Michael said to Zayn with a smile on his face, "Mr. Cross, come, let me see how good your skills are."Zayn glanced at Nathan casually, then smiled at Michael and said, "Sure."

After that, he grabbed a brush, dipped it in ink, and started writing.

With the crowd in front of him, he wrote an excerpt from the Iliad. ‘Let me not die ingloriously and without a struggle, but let mefirst do something great that shall be told among men hereafter.’

The crowd applauded his penmanship after he finished writing and one of them shouted, "Beautiful!"Michael's eyes lit up when he read the bold line of words written by Zayn.

Although the quote wasn't quite suitable for birthdays, Michael thought that Zayn was complimenting his son.After all, his son was Zach Hill, commander-in-chief of the South.

Michael was almost certain that Zayn showed up at his birthday out of respect for Zach.

So he wasn't alarmed when he saw what Zayn had written.

However, when Nathan read the quote, he let out a slight grin.

He knew deep inside that the quote was meant for him.

Zayn was basically telling him through his calligraphy: I've killed so many people that the blood on my sword is still dripping.Killing you is nothing!

Sure enough, Zayn looked straight at Nathan with a murderous look in his eyes after he finished writing.

With a slight grin, Nathan stood up and said calmly, "Before | came, | heard that General Hill instructed everyone not to bring anypresents. Therefore, | did not

prepare any gifts. Since there are ink and paper here, I've decided to showcase my calligraphy skills too and give it to Michael ashis birthday present."

Upon hearing these words, Michael answered Nathan in curiosity, "Young fellow, since you know calligraphy as well, if you're upfor it, please show us your skills!"

Without any hesitation, Nathan picked up the calligraphy brush and started writing.Stroke after stroke, he wrote finely and delicately.

His font was elegant yet sharp as he wrote down two lines of words.

"Brilliant!" the crowd exclaimed as they applauded.

Michael said excitedly, "Your penmanship is superb. It's way better than most calligraphy pieces I've seen before. You deserverecognition.”

Even Zach, Kylie and the others were amazed by Nathan's skills.Zach thought that Nathan's writing even looked like what the General of the North would say.

Kylie didn't know how to appreciate calligraphy, but she felt that Nathan's writing was absolutely poignant. At the same time, shelooked at Nathan proudly and thought to herself, my brother-in-law has an unparalleled talent. He's good at everything fromchess to music, and now, even calligraphy.

Nathan's writing evoked different feelings in different people who were at the scene.

While Nathan's penmanship skills stood out to Michael, Zach perceived how determined Nathan's character was through hiswriting. Meanwhile, Kylie picked up on how delicate his emotions were.

Zayn, on the other hand, had a completely different understanding of Nathan's writing.He felt that Nathan was writing from his mother's point of view. It was as though she was lamenting her ill fate.

Looking at Nathan's writing, Zayn could almost see his dead ex-wife in front of him, blaming him for abandoning them andcondemning him for her unjust fate.

Zayn's face turned pale as he glared at Nathan in shock and anger.Nathan then added a tiny line of characters on his calligraphy piece to denote that day's date.

Right after he finished writing thedate, Michael exclaime ‘Oaps jt!)5 ems kg yourhave Wr ten the

g date. Today is the 1st, not the10th!” Please read the originalcontent at Narugi.Org.

Nathan intentionally answered with ahint of surprise in his voice, " dateIs wrong? Oh dean haetlially wroteTO. aVisies the date will beright when it is actually the 10th."Please read the original content atNarugi.Org.

Upon hearing what Nathan said, Michael and the rest of the crowd laughed as they found his remark humorous.Nevertheless, Zayn remained quiet.

He knew very well that Nathan's 'mistake' wasn't actually a mistake.

Nathan had intentionally written the 10th for him.

The reason was simple. The deadlinethat Nathan had set for the oeiaeFamily to k ee} hefareHis mother'sGeel Ses for forgiveness was onthe 10th of this month. Please readthe original content atNarugi.Org.

Nathan was indirectly reminding Zayn that if the Cross Family didn't kneel before his mother's grave by the 10th, he woulddestroy the whole family.

The corner of Zayn's eyes twitched as his blood pressure spiked, and he glared at Nathan with a deathly stare.If looks could kill, Zayn would have murdered Nathan several times over by now.
