Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 454

At the same time, Dip's family were resting at the lounge in one of the navy bases. They were waiting to participate in the event at noon and to meet the General of the North.

Dip was smoking a cigar with mildly trembling hands.

Philip, on the other hand, was so excited that he paced around in the house.

He said triumphantly, "This is such a great honor for our family to be able to board the warship. When General Hill takes this opportunity to introduce Helen to the General, I will become the General's brother-in-law in the near future! Hahaha!”

As for Helen, she was putting on her makeup carefully with a small mirror.

Even though she was silent, she was betrayed by her expectant eyes.

Anyone could tell that she really wanted to be Mrs. General, and she would not stop at anything to get there.

At this very moment, their butler, Alfred, knocked on the door and reported, "Sir, there is news from Lion Bay in the East. Carl Russo has a message for you.”

Dip immediately said, "Shoot!"

Alfred said, "Nathan does not seem to be willing to wait around, hence his righthand man, Thomas Dunn, has already gathered a group of men who are rushing over from Channing now. Nathan Cross has issued a war declaration towards our family, and he wants to settle things once and for all with us today at noon at Lion Bay”

Dip was rather taken aback when he heard it. "Knowing that I have gathered thirty thousand followers, he did not even admit defeat and still gathered his men to declare war with me at Lion Bay?"

Alfred said, "That's right!"

Dip frowned and asked, "How many men did that Nathan Cross gather?"

Alfred replied, "From what I've heard, Thomas brought three hundred men."

Three hundred?

Dip, Philip, and Helen exchanged glances and could not help but burst out in peals of laughter.

With just three hundred men, Nathan Cross is declaring war on the thirty thousand men of the Turner Mansion? is he giving up on life, or is he looking to go out with a bang?

Apart from the big shots, many everyday heroes participated in this event as well.

Some were excellent teachers, some were model laborers, and some were outstanding youths.

On top of that, some honored veterans were also there to watch the ceremony.

Penny had already seen a number of veterans with lots of badges on their uniforms.

It was just that she didn't expect Nathan to be invited to this event too as a retired soldier.

Nathan laughed, "There are representatives invited from every industry for this event. They invited a group of veterans, and I was one of them."

Penny's family completely bought the very plausible story.

However, Kylie was the only one who merely smiled silently.
