Salute to the General novel Chapter 730

Shawn was the first to burst into laughter. "Hahaha! Who do you think you are? Actually boasting about how you're going to have my father here in ten minutes. What a joke!"

By his side, Ivy mocked, "How much alcohol have you drunk to be this daring? Let's not talk about how you've already been thrown out of the Cross family. Even if you were still the young master, you would still have to be courteous to the mayor. You dare demand him to come here immediately? You?"

Shawn's friends were also chortling and jeering at Nathan.

By contrast, Minnie was feeling awkward and embarrassed on his behalf. She thought the way he was trying to act tough in front of Shawn was incredibly foolish. His boast about the mayor coming in ten minutes was even more so.

Not only would it not scare Shawn and his friends at all, but Nathan would also end up bearing the brunt of their jokes.

Even Penny was starting to get anxious and worried.

She knew Nathan was familiar with some authority figures back in the South and they would help out if anything happened.

But this was not the South. This was Northania.

His connections would not help him out here.

Afraid that things would escalate further, she advised softly, "Nathan, we can't go against a local like him, especially since he's the mayor's son. Let's not argue with him anymore and just give him the room, okay? We can eat outside."

In Ivy's mind, with Nathan's current status, there was no way he could come here to eat if it were not for Penny. Based on the other woman's clothing, she guessed the latter was the president of some company.

Seeing how even Penny was backing off, Ivy sneered, "Nathan said that my boyfriend was a dog and tried to use his father to scare him. I don't think letting us have the room is enough anymore."

Shawn narrowed his eyes as he agreed, "Yeah. I'm not letting you off the hook so easily!"

Coquettishly coiling her hands around his arm, Ivy uttered haughtily, "Let's see... You said we were as noisy as dogs earlier, so now you should kneel down and bark like one too! After that, if you crawl out of here on all fours, we might consider letting you go. What do you think?"

Penny's face grew dark at the other woman's suggestion.
