Salute To The General

Chapter 290 You Must Be Sick Of Living

Shannon Russo was flabbergasted at the unexpected situation.

Everyone present was shocked by what was going on.

Shannon Russo stared at Franklin Wilson in disbelief and said, "Mr. Wilson, you..."

Before the woman could finish her sentence, Franklin Wilson had already stepped forward and

snatched the revolver away from her hand apathetically.

After passing the revolver to one of the National Guards who was standing next to him, the Major-

General took the jewelry box that contained the red ruby necklace from his wife, and walked swiftly

towards Nathan Cross.

Holding the box with both hands over his head, Franklin Wilson said to Nathan Cross respectfully, "Mr.

Cross, I shall now return this necklace which rightfully belongs to your mother-in-law. Please accept it!”

What the h**l is going on???

Shannon Russo and all the other people were stunned by the man's actions.

Of course, Penny Smith, Sean Smith, as well as the other members of the Smith family were shocked

beyond words.

They could never imagine that what Nathan bragged about earlier had really come true!

Franklin Wilson had indeed willingly handed over the red ruby necklace to Nathan Cross.

Most of the guests had their mouths dropped open and had bewildered looks on their faces. Other than

the Smith family, the rest of the guests did not know the origin of the precious necklace, but they were

shocked at the Major-General's deferential attitude towards Nathan Cross.

After all, Franklin Wilson was from the North Army before he was transferred to the South two years

ago.

It was a common understanding that, apart from strength and abilities, those who were from the North

Army had a reputation for their arrogance and pomposity.

Although Franklin Wilson was very capable, he was also very haughty.

It was unusual to see him treating someone in such a polite and respectful manner.

As such, everyone was making a wild guess about Nathan Cross's identity.

However, out of everyone present, Nathan Cross's family and relatives, including Penny and Sean

Smith, were the most stupefied.

The members of the Smith family knew very well the value and the story of the necklace.

When Nathan declared, just a while back, that Franklin Wilson would personally hand over the

necklace back to him, they had ridiculed and mocked him for being a braggart who was so full of

himself.

No one had expected that things would turn out exactly like what Nathan had mentioned earlier.

Franklin Wilson had indeed returned the red ruby necklace to Nathan on his own accord!

Sean Smith's heart was thumping so hard that it felt as though he had his heart in his mouth. The

elderly man's blood pressure had also spiked and was on the verge of collapsing to the floor.

May was also muttering to herself, with her lips quivering, "That's not possible, it's impossible. It would

definitely take a much powerful man for Major-General Wilson to show such deference to."

Even Penny was amazed by her husband's accomplishment, and was looking at him with a puzzled

expression.How on Earth did he manage that? The woman thought.

Nathan Cross himself appeared calm and relaxed, just like before.RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

Being held at gunpoint by ten submachine guns, Shannon Russo had intended to order the assassins

to surrender.

However, before she could speak, Franklin Wilson had already taken offence that those men did not

surrender at once after his command. That roused his anger and he growled, "It seems like you guys

are tired of living!" Read at

After Franklin Wilson expressed his rage, two teams of soldiers, who were armed to the teeth,

immediately dashed into the hall. There were at least a hundred of them!

The soldiers were carrying loaded guns and surrounded Shannon Russo's subordinates at once,

pointing their guns at those assassins.

Without waiting for further instructions from Shannon Russo, those hired guns of the Russo family

threw their sabers on the ground instantly and backed down.

It was clear to everyone that Franklin Wilson meant business, and was not just messing around with

the Russo family.
