Salute To The General

Being the only other person who knew about Nathan's identity, Chance quickly stepped forward and greeted him politely, "Hello, Mr. Cross!" Although the other business owners had no idea who Nathan was, they held Chance in high regard and saw him as a leader of sorts in the corporate world.

As such, seeing him greet Nathan with respect prompted them all to do the same.

"Hello, everyone! I understand that these are tough times, and you all have had it rough lately. I'm sorry you had to put up with these clowns!" Nathan greeted them back with a smile.

While Chance and the others were happy to see Nathan, the look on Jemma's face had twisted with rage the moment he appeared.

She still hated Nathan for making her bow down to him back then, so seeing everyone else show him more respect angered her even further. "Heh... Nathan is not that powerful anymore, and his wife's company is going to be closed down after we sanction it. Neither of them is capable of protecting themselves now, so I don't understand why you guys would even ask them for help! You guys should be begging me instead of them!" Chance and the others could only seethe in silence when they heard that.

Nathan shot her a glance and said coldly, “You again? What, did I not punish you enough the other day? Get the hell out of here, and take your lackeys with you! You are not welcome here!"

Nathan knew that Max was the ambassador for Ariarica, and that he sent Jessica to represent him in the negotiation.

Consequently, he saw Jemma as nothing but a small fry in charge of running errands, so he couldn't even be bothered to deal with her seriously and simply asked her to get lost.

This was the second time Nathan had kicked Jemma out.

Naturally, she wasn't all too happy about it. "You sure are an insolent fool, Nathan! Even Zion treats us all with great respect! How dare you show me such disrespect? Do you have any idea who I represent?" she shouted furiously with her face all "I don't care who you represent, nor do

care who's backing you up. I will

not allow you to behave so insolently here in Eurasia. Don't think you can bully us just because you've betrayed your country and joined forces with the enemy. You mean nothing to me, Jemma Danvers. The same goes for Jessica and Max," Nathan replied coldly.

Jemma got so angry that she was trembling all over.

"Who do you think you are, huh? You two are nothing but a scumbag and a wench! I hope you two have your wills written because you are both done for Ariarica will surely come after you! Since you have all decided to join Cross Group, then your companies will all be sanctioned along with them!" she shoutedContent held by NôvelDrama.Org.

before motioning her subordinates

to leave with her.

Suddenly, Ava, who had been standing beside Penny the whole time, stepped forward and blocked Jemma's path.

Apparently, hearingjemma insult Nathan and Penny was the last straw for her.

General won't hit a woman, but I will!

"Get out of the way, b*tch!" Jemma shouted angrily at her.

"I want you to apologize to Mr. and Mrs. Cross for insulting them!" Ava demanded coldly.

Everyone gasped in shock when they saw a mere bodyguard demanding an apology from a representative of Ariarica.

Jemma too, was equally shocked

when she heard that. She then glanced at Nathan and Penny, only to see them standing there with calm expressions on their faces.

The fact that neither of them tried to stop Ava meant they supported her behavior.
