Salute to the General novel Chapter 536

Jaxon bit down on his quivering lips. "It's our fault this time. We're willing to accept our punishment from the General."

Nathan narrowed his eyes. "And what fault is that exactly?"

Jaxon was at a loss for words. He really couldn't say it and frankly, he shouldn't say it, either.

"You can't even admit your faults? Is this your idea of an apology?" asked Nathan coolly.

Vance's men helped him over. "Let me apologize in his stead. We Schulzs shouldn't have coveted the Blue Sky Corporation, nor should we have wanted to take over Cross Group."

It was always hard to start an apology, but once the first sentence was uttered, the rest flowed along easily.

Vance continued, "We also shouldn't have sent for men to come after you, General, nor have your family harassed. And we shouldn't have gathered so many men to invade this military base."

"We weren't thinking straight, and have caused so much trouble for the General. We accept our punishment."

Nathan Cross sneered, "That's not all your trespasses. You've also used Dip Turner and monopolized all the businesses and trades in the South to amass wealth for yourselves."

"Whenever you noticed an industry doing well, your family would automatically stretch your filthy hands out. And whenever anyone dared to resist, you would destroy their whole families!"

"The Schulz family is thoroughly atrocious and unforgivable!"

Vance, Jaxon, and the rest all lowered their heads, not daring to refute any of the accusations.

Nathan's eyes fell on Jaxon. "I was going to turn a blind eye as long as you lot steered clear of me. But you just had to come and push my buttons."

"My punishment to you is simple. The Schulz family will now retire and stay off the radar, and give back the South their peace and quiet."

What?

Vance, Jaxon, and everyone else's face paled. To have them retreat from the spotlight and stay hidden meant that they would have to give up all that they had in the South. They wouldn't be able to do whatever they wanted anymore!

This was completely unacceptable to the Schulz family.

Because if they gave up as juicy a steak as the South, the Schulz family would definitely be done for.
