Salute to the General novel Chapter 38

Everyone stared at Joseph Myers in shock and disbelief.

Joseph Myers' face darkened as he growled, "Now, boy, you can eat crap, but don't you dare talk crap."

"I took out my best wine for this gathering, and you're calling it fake? If you can't prove it today, I'll make sure to stuff the bottle down your throat!"

It was never a good idea to anger Mr. Myers.

The Smith couple looked at Nathan Cross smugly. How dare he accuse Mr. Myers of such atrocious deeds?

If Nathan Cross fails to back up his allegations, the bodyguards standing around would definitely be forcing the whole bottle down his throat.

Penny Smith began to panic when she saw Joseph Myers flying into a rage.

Protecting her husband from Joseph Myers' revenge schemes mattered more to her than the sponsorship deal itself.

She immediately stood up and pulled Nathan Cross by the arm. ‘Tm sorry, Mr. Myers. My husband doesn't drink much wine, so he probably isn't that knowledgeable about it. Can I apologize on his behalf?”

"Honey, you don't have to. I do prefer domestic wine over foreign ones, though I must say that it's pretty obvious that this La Romanee-Conti is fake," assured Nathan Cross calmly.

He turned to look at Joseph Myers with his cold gaze. "If you want to invest in this project, I'm more than happy to accept your offer, even if you have ulterior motives. What I can't accept is how you tried to bluff everyone with this counterfeit wine, Don't even get me started on how rude you've been to me since the beginning."

"Fine then! If you keep insisting that the wine here is fake, why don't you prove it?" Joseph Myers snarled.

"If you can prove that it's real, I'll let you do whatever you want with me," relented Nathan Cross.

Joseph Myers gave him a cruel grin. "Alright. If I can prove that this wine is real, then you'll have to swallow the bottle. If you resist, I'll get my bodyguards to force it down.”
