Salute to the General novel Chapter 2170

Simone flashed an ambiguous smile. “Nathan Cross is here.”

Nathan was smiling as he greeted the people present.

“Mr. Cross, may I have this dance with you?” Catherine approached him and asked.

Instinctively, Nathan was going to reject her, but she added, “I heard you're from a wealthy family in Eurasia, so you're very well educated on the social etiquettes of nobility. Mr. Cross, you know how ungentlemanly it is to refuse a lady's invitation to a dance, no doubt. Surely, you won't do me the dishonor?”

What she said left him no choice but to accept her invitation.

Hence, Catherine smiled and took his hand as they walked onto the dance floor.

Meanwhile, Reno was on the side, looking at them furiously as he gritted his teeth. “Damn it!”

“General Reno, Ms. Catherine doesn't seem to be fond of you.” Nakajima looked sympathetically at him. “Looks like she's more interested in Nathan Cross.”

“I'll definitely teach that man a lesson and make that woman fall for me,” Reno responded with rage in his eyes.

“Be patient. Tonight, I'll make your wish come true.” Simone grinned.

“The things that I talked to you two about, how's the preparation going along?”

“All done,” Nakajima answered.

Reno smirked. “I've already sent some men to the Eurasia fleet to cause some trouble. Soon, there will be a spectacle to behold.”

On the dance floor, the lighting and music set a classy ambiance.

At the moment, Nathan and Catherine were ballroom dancing.

She looked at the handsome face right in front of her, thinking that Nathan looked more attractive the more she looked at him. With the eagerness of someone from the west, Catherine's face flushed as she asked, “Mr. Cross, it's a beautiful night with good music and wine.”

She took a brief pause. “People say love blooms from a romantic atmosphere like this. May I know, Mr. Cross, whether I've swayed your heart, even for a little?”

Catherine had never been in a relationship ever since she was a small girl. Even though hordes of men had pursued her, she rejected all of them. At that moment, it was the first time Catherine's heart raced because of a man, and she took the initiative to express her affection towards a man.

When she finished, her face was bright red. Even her neck was turning red, making her look rather charming.
