In the Cross Clan's residence in Johnstone City, Northania.
The third master of the Cross Clan, Gregory Cross, was complaining about Nathan to the head of the Cross Clan, Morris Cross.
He bellowed furiously, "Morris, that little brat has gone overboard. I think there's a need to punish him in order to maintain the reputation of the Cross Clan's elders!"
Morris replied nonchalantly, "I thought the Cross family would perish after Zayn died, but I've never expected that Nathan and his wife Penny would manage to unite the Cross family and the Cross Group, even achieving success in the pharmaceutical field. At this rate, the Cross family will definitely become a prominent international company after ten years.”
Gregory's eyes widened in surprise. "Morris, what do you mean? Surely you're not thinking about building rapport just because he's successful and ignoring the humiliation I faced?”
Morris grinned. "What I meant was, the Cross Group has great potential, so if we manage to make it ours, the Cross Clan will be launched to greater heights.”
Gregory exclaimed excitedly, "You're thinking about taking over the Cross Group! Morris, do you have any ideas on how to do so?"
Morris took out a philosophy book and flipped through it casually before saying in a calm tone, "I plan to wait patiently and see what happens."
Gregory was dumbfounded. "Morris, did those philosophy books rot your brain? If we don't take revenge against Nathan and snatch the Cross Group from him, do you think that they will just serve it to us on a silver platter?”
Nathan replied with a grin, "That's right. I predict that it won't be long before Nathan gives us the Cross Group."
Gregory's eyes widened in surprise. "Why is that so?"
Morris explained calmly, "I heard that Nathan crossed the Black Clan, and they threatened to kill his entire family. The Black Clan is extremely powerful, so Nathan is no match for them! When Nathan is driven into a corner by them, he'll have no choice but to serve the Cross Group to us on a silver platter in exchange for his family's safety. That is how we can get the Cross Group without the need to put in any extra effort!"
Gregory exclaimed excitedly, "That's a great idea! Haha, we will just wait and see what happens for now. We'll watch as the Black Clan overpowers Nathan and he comes to us for help."
Morris smiled in response, wearing the same expectant expression as Gregory.
At that moment, Nathan, Kylie, and Colin were on a flight to Forthmore City in Northania to attend the seventieth birthday celebration of the General of the North, Geronimo Louie.
