Salute to the General novel Chapter 889

When Fletcher brought his son back home, Mark and Jeremiah were already waiting for him.

They were stunned upon hearing how Nathan had been dining with the mayor and the city's other decision-makers, and how they had allowed him to do as he wished.

"It seems that Cross is so arrogant because the mayor is backing him up!" Mark mused.

Jeremiah nodded in agreement. "No wonder he's so cocky! That makes things a lot trickier."

A cold laugh burst from Fletcher's mouth; he was in disagreement. "Actually, now that I know his power comes from the mayor and leaders, I think it would be incredibly easy to deal with him!"

The other two men were surprised at his words.

"Mr. Harvey, why do you say that?" Mark wondered.

"Yeah. Why do you think it would be easier to deal with him after knowing the mayor supports him?" Jeremiah chimed in.

Fletcher sneered, "Since the mayor is his trump card, the method to handle him is obvious."

Their eyes lit up and they chorused, "What would that be?"

Smirking, he explained, "Since the mayor is Cross' backer, using conventional methods won't work. That's why I plan on contacting my friend in the military to ask for help. Even the mayor won't be able to protect him."

Mark exclaimed in joy, "What a great idea!"

Jeremiah was equally excited. "That's right! The military is not under the mayor's jurisdiction. They don't even need a valid excuse to arrest Cross. In fact, they could probably execute him right before the mayor's eyes without even explaining! The best thing is, there's nothing the mayor can do about it! Brilliant!"
