Salute To The General

Chapter 1251 Why Will You Not Believe Me

It was evening when Nathan returned to his home located at Riverside. At this time, his mother-in- law had already prepared the food.

Benson, Kylie, and Queenie were already sitting at the table, ready to have dinner.

Noticing that Penny was nowhere to be seen, Nathan frowned and asked, "Where's Penny?"

Benson answered with a bitter smile, "She's working overtime with some of the executives of the company. It seems like the company has run into a huge trouble. She wants to discuss it with everyone so they can come up with a plan to prevent it from worsening.”

It turned out that although Penny had decided to not compromise with the Pirate King's demand of paying the ten billion toll, she knew that by going against the Pirate King's extortion, they would evoke the wrath of the Pirate King, Odysseus Blackwood. So she wanted to discuss with the executives of the company to formulate a set of follow-up protocols.

Nathan didn't know whether to laugh or to cry. "I already told her I would settle this trivial matter. I guess she's still worried after all. Forget it. You all can have dinner without me. I'll stop by the company for a bit."

As soon as he finished speaking, Nathan grabbed his car keys and left.
