Salute To The General

Chapter 119 Trust Me When I Say I Will Cripple You

The next day, Thomas Dunn himself came to pick Nathan up. He went along with him to meet Harvey

Babcock and to discuss the amount of compensation.

But before Nathan and Thomas reached the auction house, they received a call from Colin.

Colin reported, "Sir, the experts left out some details last night. Even though the porcelain shard itself is

authentic, they also detected signs of polishing."

"What does that mean?" frowned Nathan.

"It means that the porcelain vase was already broken even before excavation, and not smashed

recently," explained Colin.

"So what you're saying is, someone found a piece of broken porcelain, polished its edges, then mixed it

in with other fake shards to con my father-in-law?"

"Yes, sir. It appears that Mr. Smith is the target of a scam," confirmed Colin.

Nathan narrowed his eyes, "Alright. I understand."

Nathan hung up the call and uttered coldly, "Bloody low lives! How dare they try to con my father-in-

law?"
