Salute to the General novel Chapter 331

Carl collapsed in his chair. His two sworn brothers were his right-hand men, and the Eighteen Hounds were the pillars of the Russo family, but they all died in Channing!

He was so shocked by the ordeal and seemed to have aged several years at once.

However, that wasn't the end.

It was obvious Nathan was here to settle the score with him.

He looked at Nathan with conflicting emotions. "Young man, I've underestimated you. What do you want?"

Nathan told him coolly, "I've warned your family previously. However, you insisted on testing my patience. Last night, you even caused a bloodbath in Channing. My friends, Howard and Zachary, ended up in the hospital."

"I wanted to kill you so that you'll meet your sworn brothers in hell."

However, if I kill you now, that would be doing you a favor as it won't make up for the losses you caused last night."

Nathan paused before he added, "If you're willing to compensate for the losses you caused and apologize to the people you hurt last night, I can forgive you and let you return to Alberesque."

No one was willing to die, including Carl.

He asked in frustration, "How should I compensate you?”

"That depends on how much you think your life is worth,” Nathan told him calmly.

"I'll give you one chance. If I'm satisfied with your compensation, you can live and return to Alberesque. If not, you'll remain in Channing forever."

Carl's face darkened. Nathan was giving him a chance to trade his life back. With cold-hard cash.

However, he only had one chance. If Nathan were satisfied with the price he offered, he would get to live.

In the end, he blurted out, "One billion. I'll pay one billion for my life. That should be enough, right?"

Nathan's lips curled up in a smirk. "That's too little. Why don't you compensate Zachary and Howard one billion each and another billion for the rest? You'll pay three billion in total. Plus, you'll have to go to the hospital to apologize to Zachary and Howard. How does that sound?"
