Salute to the General novel Chapter 57

In the lobby, Penny was nearly going mad with worry as she tried to get a lawyer for Nathan.

Even though Carl and his men were all injured, they were still in a good mood upon their 'victory'.

With a lecherous grin on his face, Carl teased the woman, "Hehl Beautiful lady, you really should give up; no lawyer can help you now. However, if you agree to sleep with me for the night, I might just be willing to tell Vice-captain Lee to let your husband go."

The rest of the thugs burst into laughter at their boss' words, their eyes greedily roving across Penny's curvaceous figure.

Anger and anxiety swamped Penny but there was nothing she could do.

At that moment, Carl spotted Harold and the other policemen coming out of the holding area. He sauntered over and deliberately pitched his voice louder as he said, "Vice-captain Lee, look at how badly that b******, Nathan Cross, injured me.

Locking him up is too light a punishment for his crimes!"

Harold's expression was unfazed as he asked, "Then what would you like me to do?"

Chuckling evilly, Carl replied, "Beat him up in revenge, of course!"

A disdainful look appeared in Harold's eyes but it was gone in an instant. "Fine, head to the holding cells then."

Carl's eyes gleamed. Harold permitting him to enter was basically serving Nathan up on a silver platter. After all, with Nathan being in the holding cells, that meant that he was most likely in shackles right now.Hoiv could I refuse?

There was a gleeful look on Carl's face as he thanked the other man profusely before heading over to the holding cells.

The two policemen who had escorted him there stopped in front of the door, gesturing for him to head inside alone. Clearly, they had no intention of going

inside as well.
