Unrivalled God of War

Chapter 44

“What call? Are you going to lure our president over and take him hostage?” Linda Brown retorted immediately.

However, Liam Harrison’s expression turned grim when he saw the number on Nathan Cross’ phone screen.

He knew exactly who that phone number had belonged to.

Liam Harrison turned to Linda Brown and hollered, “Shut up!”

After that, he strode over to Nathan Cross’ side, much to the disbelief of the other employees at the scene.

He took Nathan Cross’ phone and gave a soft “Hello?”.

Everyone watched in stunned silence as Liam Harrison nodded profusely during the whole conversation. “Yes, yes sir, of course. I will apologize to Mr. Cross. Yes, I will deal with it.”

Liam Harrison returned the phone to Nathan Cross after the call had ended, his head hung low from fear. “Mr. Cross, the superiors just told me that we need to protect your interests. May I know what happened? I will resolve the issues personally.”

Nathan Cross pointed to David Nelson, who was still unconscious and on the floor. “This old goat wants to bully my wife. What are you going to do with him?”

“Rest assured, Mr. Cross. He will be dealt with severely as per your wishes,” assured Liam Harrison hurriedly.

...

As Liam Harrison and the other higher-ups of the Channing Bank apologized profusely to Nathan Cross, things were going south at John Miller’s Juno Hotel as well.

It started off with a team from the emergency department that showed up unexpectedly to check the fire-fighting equipment in Juno Hotel. They came to the conclusion that the quality of their equipment were not up to standard, which was a safety hazard.

After that, another group of inspectors from the health ministry popped in to conduct an investigation on Juno Hotel’s food safety, which only yielded increasingly grim results.

Finally, the two departments came together to issue a cease and desist order to Juno Hotel. NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

John Miller was shocked when he had heard about all that.

Before he could come to his senses, his father George Miller stormed into the house and yelled, “You little b******! Look at what you’ve done!”

John Miller tried to explain himself, “Dad, this has got nothing to do with me, it’s the law...”

Piak!

Before John Miller could finish his sentence, George Miller had already slapped him across his face.

George Miller stuck a finger at his son’s nose and bellowed, “You dare talk back to me? I’ve already gotten in contact with the authorities in secret, and they’ve told me that you’ve messed with the wrong person. If you don’t go and apologize now, we’ll lose the Juno Hotel forever.”

“Now who in the world did you anger?”

John Miller’s mind immediately went to Nathan Cross and his threat that morning.

He had not taken it seriously then, and he regretted it intensely.

John Miller’s face went pale as he said with trembling lips, “Dad, I angered some guy called Nathan Cross, and he told me to apologize to him before he closes down Juno Hotel.”

George Miller was shocked. “You imbecile! Why are you getting into trouble everywhere you go? Now go and apologize to Nathan Cross before our lives get ruined forever!”
