Salute to the General novel Chapter 335

Shane immediately sneered, "What a load of hogwash! How dare you claim you've attended a state banquet?"

"Believe it or not, I have," Nathan replied calmly.

Hank wanted to set his daughter and Shane up today, so he wasn't in the mood to hear Nathan's boast. He was impatient as he said, "Enough, we are not here to listen to your nonsense. Ask Chef Jake to serve the dishes now."

Shane grinned. "Yes, serve the food now. We'll show the braggart what a real state banquet is."

Soon, successive delectable and mouthwatering gourmet dishes such as Baked French Onion Soup, Maryland Crab Cakes, and Braised Partridge were served.

Hank and Prudence whipped out their phones to take photos to upload to their social media before enjoying the meal. Everyone at the table was full of praises for the dishes.

Even Kylie had to admit the dishes were delicious.

Hank was evidently elated. "Thanks to you, Mr. Ortiz, we get to enjoy the state banquet menu.”

Prudence had an unctuous smile on her face too. "I heard Indigo would only serve their most distinguished guests the state banquet menu. Not everyone can order it.”

Shane was pleased. He glanced at Nathan casually and taunted, "Haha! It's fine. After this meal, that braggart can confidently claim he had eaten at a state banquet."

The braggart that he meant was Nathan.

Everyone's eyes fell on Nathan, who remained calm as he fed his daughter.

Queenie inquired, "Papa, you've been to a state banquet, right? How is it different from this one?"

Penny felt awkward when she heard her daughter's words. Her husband was merely boasting, but her daughter was the only one who believed he had attended one.

Of all the questions she could ask, did she have to ask that?

Shane, Hank, and Prudence burst into laughter. "Yes, Nathan. You said you've attended the state banquet. Tell us, how is it different from the dishes served today?"

Penny and her family gazed at Nathan worriedly as they were afraid he might embarrass himself.
