Salute To The General

Chapter 694 Confrontation

That very moment, the servant brought out some ink and paper.

Michael said to Zayn with a smile on his face, "Mr. Cross, come, let me see how good your skills are." Zayn glanced at Nathan casually, then smiled at Michael and said, "Sure."

After that, he grabbed a brush, dipped it in ink, and started writing.

With the crowd in front of him, he wrote an excerpt from the Iliad. ‘Let me not die ingloriously and without a struggle, but let me first do something great that shall be told among men hereafter.’

The crowd applauded his penmanship after he finished writing and one of them shouted, "Beautiful!" Michael's eyes lit up when he read the bold line of words written by Zayn.

Although the quote wasn't quite suitable for birthdays, Michael thought that Zayn was complimenting his son. After all, his son was Zach Hill, commander-in-chief of the South.

Michael was almost certain that Zayn showed up at his birthday out of respect for Zach.

So he wasn't alarmed when he saw what Zayn had written.

However, when Nathan read the quote, he let out a slight grin.
