Chapter 1308 General Nathan Cross Called
Nathan replied calmly, "Old Master Jordan isn't an ordinary man, and he would not change hisposition with me. He will treat me as he always has. Still, he is the commanding officer of themilitary, and I killed his grandson, so I should inform him about it."
On the way back home, Nathan fished his phone out and dialed Old Master Jordan's phonenumber.
The truth, however, was that Old Master Jordan had already learned about his grandson's death.
He was sitting in the study room with a grouchy expression.
The butler had the mobile phone with him when he informed cautiously, "Sir, the General of theNorth, Nathan Cross, is calling."
Old Master Jordan didn't say a word.
The butler sweated as he held the ringing phone. He didn't know what to do, and the phone keptringing.
It was as if Old Master Jordan and Nathan were having a silent mental battle.
Just before the phone was about to be hung up, Old Master Jordan instructed, "Pick it up."
The butler quickly pressed the accept button and handed the mobile phone to him.
Old Master Jordan's expression was dark a moment ago, but he turned kind and his tone was softwhen he picked up the phone. "General! I was just about to call you. Who would've thought thatyou'd call me first?"
Nathan cut to the chase. "I know you will demand an answer, so I thought I'd clarify beforehand."
Old Master Jordan immediately said, "General, there's no need for that. I have learned all aboutwhat my unfilial grandson, Gary did. That boy really is too much. It is his own fault that he died byyour hand."
Nathan clarified calmly anyway, "Gary and Hagrid raped my teacher's daughter, and that promptedher to commit suicide by jumping off a building. I gave them a chance to repent their sins, but Garytried to kill me and had ill intentions toward my wife. He crossed my line, and I wish you canunderstand what I did."
Old Master Jordan replied, "I understand. That idiot tried to kill you, and that is a grave sin. If youhadn't beaten me to it, I would've killed him myself."
Nathan knew that Old Master Jordan was just being polite, but the former didn't point it out. Nathansimply said, "I'm glad you understand."
Old Master Jordan chatted with Nathan for a little longer before he changed the subject and said,"By the way, General, you haven't been guarding the Northern border and had gone to the South forvacation. There are a lot of rumors about how you have neglected your duties. Some even advisedthe president to take away your position for it. What are your thoughts on that?"
Nathan sounded like he was joking when he asked, "Dang, who's giving the president that idea?Couldn't have been you, could it?"
Old Master Jordan chuckled. "Of course not. I have retired for so long, so I am in no position to sayanything. Besides, the newbies nowadays are such arrogant pricks. They no longer respect me."
Nathan could tell that Old Master Jordan was insulting him.
"The president has always said that the younger generation is loyal and respectful to elders like usbecause we are honorable and kind."
"Old Master Jordan, no one would dare disrespect you."
Old Master Jordan's eyes burned with fury when he heard what Nathan said.
Nathan really won't back down even a little. I have just called him an arrogant prick, and heretaliated immediately by suggesting that I am not honorable!
Old Master Jordan looked furious when he said, "Be careful, General. It'd be humiliating if youactually got fired from your position as the General of the North."
Nathan replied calmly, "You be careful too, Old Master Jordan."novelbin
He hung up after saying that.
Old Master Jordan smashed his phone after hanging up the call. He was furious when he said, "Iwill make him suffer!"
