When Nolan heard that the general was fine, he breathed a sigh of relief. While wiping the sweat off his brows, he said, "That's good. That's good..."
Ross was utterly dumbstruck.
Although Nathan was from the Cross family, Gerard was from the Holt family of Brimmopolis!
It stood to reason that Gerard Holt's status was much higher than that of Nathan Cross. The Holt family was also more prominent than the Cross family. Hence, the mayor should have been more concerned about Gerard.
Ross couldn't understand why the mayor wasn't anxious when he heard that Nathan had injured Gerard.
Even so, Ross was not a fool. From Mr. Turner's reaction, he could vaguely guess that Nathan's status wasn't as simple as it seemed.
It was no wonder Nathan didn't take the Holt family of Brimmopolis seriously.
With a mournful expression, Ross said, "Mr. Turner, those two are basically gods. A mere commoner like me can't handle a fight between them."
"What should I do now that Nathan Cross has injured Mr. Holt in my hotel?”
Nolan's tone once again became relaxed when he spoke next, "You don't need to worry about that. All you have to remember is to stay on Mr. Cross' good side and make sure everything goes smoothly for him, otherwise, it'll be the end for your hotel."
What?
Is it that serious?
What kind of background does Nathan Cross come from?
Ross looked completely flummoxed and couldn't help but whisper into the phone, "Mr. Turner, just who exactly is Nathan Cross..."
Nolan's voice became slightly hostile, "It's not something you need to know, so don't ask too much. Haven't you heard of the saying: curiosity killed the cat?"
A sheen of sweat had gathered on Ross's forehead. Even though his question was unanswered, he could tell that Nathan was from a frightening background.
He hurriedly said, "Yes, yes, yes. I know what I should do now, Mr. Turner.”
"Mm. Report to me if anything else happens," said Nolan.
