Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 309

Penny and her family stood awkwardly by the side, not knowing how to explain themselves.

Kylie forced herself to stay calm instead of slapping a hand over her parents' mouths.

Nathan had the power to buy over a million business within minutes and the authority to summon a million soldiers with a simple phone call.

Her parents were calling a literal war god aparasite'.

If not for her promise to Nathan to never speak a word about his true identity, she would have blurted it out to her parents there and then.

She turned to her parents and growled, "Dad, Mom, can't you bequiet for once?"

Penny and her family stiffened as well, fearing a conflict between Nathan and the Tonkins.

Penny slipped her hand through Nathan's arm to remind him to stay calm.

No matter what people said, Nathan would always be the apple of her eye.

The Smith couple began to usher everyone into the house. "Let's go in and sit down, everyone!"

The Tonkins stopped making fun of Nathan for the time being, seeing that their daughter was getting agitated.

However, that did not stop them from thinking of Nathan as an imbecile that leeched off Penny.

They figured that it must have been Penny who had funded the Pagani Zonda.

The Tonkins glared at Nathan, their hatred for him growing deeper and more intense. What a useless imbecile! He doesn't deserve her!

Dinner was ready and waiting for them on the table.

There were several sumptuous dishes, all of them painstakingly put together by Leah according to her own memory of her sister's favorite food.

But to their surprise, Prudence simply pouted and looked away. "What are all these? Are you telling me that you can tolerate these dirt cheap dishes? You know, besides cooking at home, we usually go to restaurants to have our meals. Toptier steaks and caviar are a must, and our drink of choice is usually 1982 Lafite. I can't stomach whatever this is!”

As the hosts, the Smiths could only stare at the Tonkins in awkward silence as they ranted on.

Nathan furrowed his brows.How could such a sweet girl like Kylie have such unreasonable parents?

However, one problem bothered the Tonkins: Yancy was already thirty years old, yet he was still single.

Hank had taken a special liking to Penny, who had become the boss of her own company at a young age.

He felt incredibly indignant that she chose someone as worthless as Nathan Cross over anyone else.

That gave him the idea of matchmaking Penny with his nephew to distract her from Nathan.

He felt that it was the best gift he could give to Penny.

Also, he believed that Penny would thank him profusely for it, and the older Smith couple would be grateful to him for eternity.

As for Nathan Cross... He wanted him out of his sight as soon as possible.

Prudence understood what her husband wanted to do when he announced that he was inviting their nephew to dinner at the Eastern Dragon Hotel.

"Of course! Let's go to the Eastern Dragon Hotel. I'll give Yancy a call!"
