Salute to the General novel Chapter 2680

Nathan didn't stay long at the Windsor residence because he had been occupied with many things to deal with recently.

After chatting with Hansel and his wife for a bit more, he went to the White House with Penny.

The atmosphere in the White House was filled with sadness.

When Nathan and Penny entered, they even heard faint sobbing noises.

“Chief Cross is here! Hurry! Hurry up and stand straight to welcome Chief

Cross!”

Following the sound of hurried footsteps, a group of royal guards and staff quickly lined up, saluting Nathan in unison. “Good day, Chief Cross!”

“Good day, everyone!” Nathan nodded.

Jaxton, the commander-in-chief of the royal guards, came forward and greeted him respectfully, “Chief Cross, why didn't you notify us in advance that you were coming? We could've made preparations to welcome your arrival.”

Nathan shook his head and said,

“There's no need for that! How are the preparations for the president’s funeral going? Where are Mrs. Woods and Maisy?”

Jaxton hurriedly replied, “The preparations for the funeral are complete, and the funeral can be held today. Mrs. Woods and Ms. Maisy are both inside. I'll take you there, Chief Cross.”

Nathan nodded.

Soon, when Nathan and his entourage entered the White House, Garrett's body had been transported to the grand hall of Brimmopolis, where the memorial service would be held in the afternoon. Then, Garrett's body would be cremated.

At that time, Paisley and Maisy were both dressed in white.

When Paisley saw Nathan, she hurriedly stood up and gave a bow. “Good day, Chief Cross!”

Nathan hurriedly said, “Mrs. Woods, you don't have to do this. I'm like a brother to President Woods. If you address me that way, you'll be treating me as an outsider, and it'll mean that I've let President Woods down.”

Paisley noticed that Nathan was still polite and respectful to her even after Garrett's death, and she was touched. She turned to her daughter and said, “Maisy, greet Uncle Cross.”
