Salute to the General novel Chapter 677

Jared's expression darkened because even a subordinate dared to speak to him this way, but then he thought about Gladius' background and Northania's Cross family's prowess and came to realize that it was not a wise idea to offend him. With that in mind, he kept his temper in check.

Centaur, along with the expressionless Minotaur, sat beside Gladius, while Jared sat at the passenger's seat, asking the chauffeur to start driving.

Jared's and Gladius' men followed them in a huge fleet of black cars, and the huge ensemble attracted the attention of the passersby.

Gladius asked coldly, "I'd asked you to investigate where Nathan Cross is located. Have you done it already?"

Jared nodded and replied, "Yes. They live in the Riverside area."

He then immediately lowered his voice and announced, "Mr. Cross, since you're here, I have something that I need to report to you."

Gladius squinted. "Go ahead!"

Jared then told Gladius about how Nathan had made a few dozen outlets of Noblewoman Beauty in the South shut down.

Noblewoman Beauty was the company built by Helen, and it had been doing relatively well lately.

However, in the eyes of the powerful Cross Family, it was not anything of significance, not receiving an inch of their care.

Despite that, Gladius was concerned about how Nathan could manage to mobilize the relevant authorities, shutting down a few dozen outlets in just ten minutes. This could only mean that Nathan was a very formidable person.

A hint of concern flashed before Gladius' eyes for the first time as he asked slowly, "How did Nathan Cross do that? How much power does he actually have?"

Jared pouted and uttered dismissively, "I'll be damned if Nathan Cross actually has any power. He's just a very cunning person. He reported us to the authorities because the 315 Consumer Rights Banquet was happening tonight, and that'd caused our shops to be shut down."
