CHAPTER 1478 THE ONE WHO BEHAVES IN AN INSOLENT MANNER
Franklin straightened out his military uniform and military cap before he marched into the farmhouse restaurant with his subordinates following suit.
The passersby, owner of the farmhouse restaurant, and other diners were all stunned by such a sight.
Hayden, too, was stupefied when he saw Franklin and the great number of soldiers, but he brightened up the next moment.
I bet Franklin know I'm the son of Yanis Howard. That's why he attached great importance to this matter and decided to come in person.
He has done me a great honor!
With a flattering smile, Hayden and his subordinates made their way to Franklin. "Major-General Wilson, I never expected you to come personally. I will tell my father you have given us such a huge honor."
Before he could approach Franklin to shake hands with him, however, Callon, the Captain of National Guards shoved him away, causing him to be startled.
His jaw dropped when Franklin didn't spare a glance at him, walking past him to march directly toward Nathan instead.
Franklin and his subordinates stood in front of Nathan and unanimously saluted him. "Good day, Commanding Officer!"
Nathan greeted them with a small smile on his face, "Hello, everyone!"
The crowd was dumbfounded, especially Hayden and his subordinates; they were so shocked that their eyes bulged.
Commanding officer?
Nathan Cross is their commanding officer?
How the hell is that possible? This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Hayden was clueless, and he couldn't seem to find an answer for his doubts.
Under normal circumstances, no matter how great an achievement he had achieved, Nathan could only be a major at most as he was so young.
But why was Franklin Wilson, the colonel of Channing military districts, addressing Nathan as their commanding officer?
Nathan let out a chuckle. "Franklin, what brings you here?"
Franklin answered reverently, "I heard that someone was rude to you by asking you and your superior to receive punishment. I was annoyed when I heard such a ridiculous request, so I came here with my subordinates. I wonder who's the one behaving in such an insolent manner."
With that, he cast his gaze on Hayden and his subordinates.
Hayden's face changed drastically, and he immediately explained, "Major-General Wilson, this unruly soldier actually refused to salute me, so..."
Franklin interjected coldly, "How dare you call the general an unruly soldier? How dare you even ask him to salute you?"
General!
Hayden was thunderstruck by his words. His face turned ashen, and his eyes began to fill with horror and despair.
He looked at Nathan in disbelief as he stammered, "He... He... He is a general?”
"That's right! He's the General of the North and the God of War. In fact, he serves directly under the president. If I'm not mistaken, you said you want to punish him and his superior. That means you want the president to apologize to you and receive punishment.”
Oh no!
Hayden was toppled over upon hearing Franklin's words. His legs gave way, and he fell to his knees in front of Nathan.
He sprawled on the floor and begged for mercy in a trembling voice, "General, I'm sorry. I'm an ignorant fool to have offended you. I shouldn't be disrespectful toward you. I promise I won't disturb your wife again. My father is the captain of
General Windsor's national guards, so can you please forgive me for my father's sake?"
