Salute To The General

Chapter 2689

Hansel scowled in response.

By having his nephew slap my nephew on the face, Nelson is metaphorically slapping me.

Just when he was about to flare his temper, a calm voice suddenly rang out beside his ear. "He was just asking you a reasonable question and all you had to do was to explain. However, you chose to cross the line by hitting him."

Even though the voice wasn't loud, it was clear enough for everyone present to hear.

The moment they saw who it was, their eyes widened in surprise.

Meanwhile, Nelson, Fabio, and the rest looked in the direction of the sound. All they saw was a towering figure in casual clothing walking toward them with an indifferent expression.

Nelson knitted his brows slightly when he recognized the person as Nathan, for he had looked through the latter's details before returning to the country.

Unfortunately, Fabio didn't know who he was.

When he saw the unfamiliar figure express indignance on Kyler's behalf, a hostile glint flashed in his eye.

Taking two steps forward, he glared at Nathan and threatened, "Hey, brat. What did you say?"

When Nelson saw his nephew challenging Nathan, he wanted to stop him by reflex. However, right before the words rolled off his tongue, he changed his mind.

Since Fabio wasn't aware of who Nathan was, there was no reason for him to be afraid of him. Hence, Nelson wanted to use his nephew to test Nathan's boundaries and see what the latter was actually made of.

Glancing at Fabio, Nathan repeated, "I said that you have crossed the line by hitting someone."

Fabio sneered, “That insolent fool deserves a slap from me. Do you also want to be slapped?"

The crowd was already shocked earlier by Nathan's appearance. And now, they were blown away by Fabio's audacious taunt. As their expressions drastically changed, the entire hall fell so silent that one could even hear a pin drop.

Nathan stared at Fabio. "Do you intend to hit me? Does one deserve to be beaten just for being rude?"

Thrusting his chin in the air, Fabio locked gazes with Nathan and declared arrogantly, "That's right. Would you like to try?"

Slap!

Just as he spoke, Nathan smacked him in the face.

The power from his palms carried with it a force of eight hundred pounds. Not only was Fabio's face smashed into mush, but his body was also sent flying before crashing into the ground.

Nelson widened his eyes in both shock and anger. “You-"

Throwing a glance at Nelson, Nathan taunted, "What about me? It's just as he said. Whoever shows no respect will have to be taught a lesson."

His words caused Nelson to tremble.

Sweeping his gaze across the crowd, Nathan plainly asked, "Gentlemen, do you think I was right to hit him?"

Given how shrewd everyone present was, it was obvious to them that Nathan was standing up for Hansel.

Furthermore, it wasn't lost upon them that Nathan was showing his dominance on Nelson, warning the latter not to hold any unrealistic hopes.Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

On the surface, Nathan seemed to be seeking everyone's opinion on the validity of his actions.

In reality, he was telling them to choose sides.

After exchanging glances among themselves, they naturally sided with Nathan.

"Chief Cross, you have done the right thing!"

"Chief Cross, Fabio deserves to be beaten for showing you disrespect!"

"Chief Cross, you did well to kick his ass!"

"Chief Cross, our support for you is unconditional!"

Other than Nelson's die-hard supporters, all the other distinguished figures of Brimmopolis voice their support for Nathan.

At that moment, the balance of power was clear to them.

Being the most successful Eurasian overseas and having the support of hundreds of foreign leaders didn't matter at all in the face of the Chief Military Governor, Nathan

When he first made his ambitious return with all the above qualities, Nelson was so full of himself.

Unfortunately, the scene that had just transpired poured cold water on his ambitions.

e

With his expression turning grave, he felt the urge to murder someone when all the prominent figures took Nathan's side with just a single word from the latter.
