Salute To The General

Chapter 291 Not A Fatal Offence



Chapter 291 Not A Fatal Offence

In no time, Franklin Wilson and his men gained control over the situation, then the Major-General

started clearing the scene.

He scanned across the faces of the guests in the hall and said in an unfeeling voice, "Those who are

not involved in this matter may leave the premise now."

Everyone scurried away upon Franklin Wilson's order.

Even though they were curious to know the developments of the situation but judging from the way

things were; it was obvious that what might happen later wasn't going to be pleasant. If they did not

leave now, they might not have a chance to leave after that.

As such, not a single guest stayed on.

Even Sean Smith and his family left hurried with the crowd.

In less than a few minutes, the only people left in the spacious reception hall were Nathan, Penny,

Franklin Wilson, Mrs. Wilson, Franklin Wilson's soldiers as well as Shannon Russo and her

subordinates.

Nathan looked at Shannon Russo, who seemed to be still processing the situation, and asked, "So, do

you still want me to kneel down in front of you?"

Shannon Russo was currently the sole target of ten submachine guns. Furthermore, her subordinates

had all already surrendered.

Any other person would have been scared out of their minds.

However, that didn't apply to Shannon Russo.

As she slowly recovered from her shock, the woman stared at Nathan Cross while she sized him up. It

was like she was reassessing him, then she said coldly, "Nathan Cross, it seems like I've

underestimated you. It's a surprise that you have Major-General Wilson as your backing and that's a

very smart move on your part."

After taking a pause, Shannon Russo continued with a sneer, "I've failed miserably this time around

and I'll accept the consequences. The police will at most charge me with attempted murder. With the

Russo family's powerful status and influence, I'm sure I'll be released in no time, even if I have to go to

jail."

While the woman spoke, she strode towards Nathan Cross unhurriedly.

Stopping in front of the man, she leaned forward and whispered in his ear. With a hint of menace in her

voice, she said, "This is not the end. Remember, he who laughs to the last have it all. In the South,

where you and your family are, is the Russo family's territory. Do you think you'll be so lucky all the time

to have the protection of Mr. Wilson?"

At this point, Shannon Russo stopped speaking and looked towards Penny, who was standing next to

Nathan. The woman let out a burst of shrill, evil laughter before she said, "You have a pretty wife.

Remember to look after her well because if you don't do that; she might just end up in a cathouse. Oh

right! I just remembered you have a daughter, she's such an adorable little thing, guard her well too..."

Shannon Russo dished out her threats in a soft voice but had managed to send chills down Penny

Smith's spine. Penny could feel the dread in her gut and her hands were cold and clammy.

She knew that with the Russo family's power and influence, it was a piece of cake for them to deal with

her family. She was also aware that those were not just empty threats and Shannon Russo was serious

about what she said.

As those unpleasant thoughts ran wild in Penny's mind, Nathan suddenly held her hand.

This timely, warm gesture by her husband gave her strength, and she calmed down at that very

instance.

There was a chill in the air as Nathan Cross spoke.

Shannon Russo noticed a murderous glint in Nathan's eye and grew anxious. "What do you mean by

that? I've only gotten some men to teach you a lesson, it's not a fatal offense. At the most, the police

can only detain me for a few days for causing a public nuisance. But I'll give you a piece of advice. You

should really think it through before taking any action against me. The Russo family will not let it slide if

you dare lay a finger on me." New chapter avаilable oո Dramąnоvels.cом

"Not a fatal offence?" Nathan let out a cold harrumph.

consolidate all the heinous crimes you've ever committed. We'll see then, if any of those can be

considered 'fatal offenses'."
