Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 120

Nathan looked at the furious T-Rex and gave him a small smile. "You're misunderstanding me. Not two million. Just two. Two bucks."

"You've gone to a lot of effort to acquire both authentic and counterfeit shards to scam my father-in-law."

"So I will reward you for your effort and I'll be happy to pay you two bucks."

T-Rex was both outraged and dumbfounded.Is he an actual idiot or does he think Thomas Dunn can protect him?

T-Rex recalled Mr. Zabinski's orders and sneered at Nathan. "If you wish to die, Nathan, I'm happy to comply."

"Break their limbs!" ordered T-Rex.

The bodyguards immediately jumped into action at his command.

T-Rex had spent a small fortune hiring those bodyguards. They were highly trained and were vastly different from the average muscleman.

Any one of them was equal to ten men.

They were like a pack of wolves with murderous intent as they inched towards Nathan and Thomas. They looked like they could finish the pair off within seconds.

Yet Nathan just sat there in his chair looking completely unfazed. "Enough!" he snorted.

He slammed his palm onto the coffee table before him, and the coffee table, which was made out of tempered glass, shattered into smithereens.

Nathan waved his arm and the shattered glass flung themselves towards the advancing bodyguards.

Horrific screams filled the room instantaneously.

The highly-trained bodyguards collapsed onto the ground as they had just run into a shower of bullets.

The few that hadn't been injured were deftly neutralized by Thomas even before they could get close to Nathan.

What?

Fear and bewilderment filled T-Rex's eyes.

By then, T-Rex was already a whimpering blob. He bent down and picked up the money carefully as he looked at Nathan with fear in his eyes.

Nathan said calmly, "I'm an easy person to talk to. If someone has something to say to me, they can say it to my face. But of course, they should do it nicely, or I'll think they're trying to provoke me!"

T-Rex quivered, "Yes, yes!" "Now answer me. Why did you con my family? Who instructed you to do so?" asked Nathan coldly.

T-Rex intended to lie but stopped himself when he saw the iciness in Nathan's eyes.

T-Rex was a ruthless man who had seen his fair share of cruelty.

However, the moment he locked eyes with Nathan, it felt as if he were struck by lightning. His heart thumped heavily and fear took over his senses.

It was a fear that chilled him to the bones, just like how a small helpless animal ran into the mighty King of the jungle.

T-Rex realized that he dared not lie. He whispered with difficulty, "It's...it's Mr. Zabinski who instructed me to do so."
