Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1369

It was very crowded in the Bossania port because the mayor of Bossania, Cory Hunt, brought with him a lot of city officials, and numerous elders from prominent families were here as well to welcome Nathan's arrival.

The reason why they welcomed him was because they were pleasantly surprised at how he sent a very valuable gift to the Lillard family.

The moment Cory found out that Nathan was about to set foot in Bossania, he brought along his subordinates and the family elders to welcome him, but unfortunately, they didn't get to see him at all.

Cory asked the head of the Lillard family, Klay Lillard, "Klay, didn't you say that the General gave you a gift and that he will arrive today by boat?"

Meanwhile, everyone cast Klay envious gazes, because it was an honor to receive a gift from the General himself, especially since the Lillard family was at most a middle-class family.

Klay answered, "Mayor Hunt, what you said is true, and I don't know why the General hasn't arrived yet too.”

Cory nodded in acknowledgment, before asking out of curiosity, "How close is the Lillard family to the General? Why did he give you such a valuable gift?"

At that moment, everyone stared at Klay as well because they were curious as to what the Lillard family did to earn the General's favor.

However, to be frank, Klay didn't know the reason as well!

He replied hesitantly, "I have two sons, and the eldest one, Joseph, is now serving in the North Army. I heard that they value him a lot, so if I'm not mistaken, the General must've taken a liking to him hence the gift."

No wonder!

Cory and the rest had an expression of realization, as Cory replied, "If I remember correctly, your youngest son's name is

Keller, and he's about to get married soon. Don't forget to invite us to his wedding!"

The family elders chimed in as well, "Yeah! Remember to invite us to his wedding!"

Despite its worse for wear condition, a plaque saying 'House of Pride' was proudly displayed on the entrance.

Maurice apologized to Nathan and the rest awkwardly, “It's quite messy in here, so please excuse us for it."

Nathan replied, "Mr. Holland, you donated two hundred thousand that you earned from the army to children in need, so even though your house is quite run-down, your family's acts of kindness make it glorious

and admirable!"

Maurice was a little emotional when he heard that. My son's comrade really is one of a kind!

He replied hurriedly, "You're flattering me. Please come inside.”
