Salute to the General novel Chapter 704

The next day, Nathan and his family flew to the East.

They arrived in Horton at noon.

Leah would always experience motion sickness every time she travelled by air, and this time was no different. She felt miserable.

Hence, once Nathan and his family got off the plane, they did not head to the Jagger residence straightaway. Instead, they chose to rest a while at the airport lobby.

As Penny and the rest of the family sat down on the couches, Queenie said softly, "Daddy, I'm a little thirsty."

Nathan smiled. "Wait here, I'll go get us some drinks."

With that, Nathan walked away.

At that moment, an old man approached them with a painful expression on his face.

When Queenie saw the old man grimacing, she thought that he was looking for a seat.

When she realized that the seat on her left was empty, she invited him in a sweet voice, "Grandpa, are you the same as my grandmother? She also feels uncomfortable after taking a flight. Here's an empty seat. Please sit down and rest."

As Queenie spoke, she stood up and wanted to help the old man sit down.

In kindergarten, the teachers often taught them to respect the elderly and to always vacate their seats for them in public.

Therefore, Queenie naturally did what she learned in school.

Meanwhile, Penny, Benson and Leah looked on in amusement. They were happy to see that Queenie was growing up to be a considerate child.

However, what happened next shocked all of them.

The old man let out an agonizing cry and gripped his left arm before collapsing onto the ground.

After he hit the ground, he continued to hold his left arm and muttered, "She pushed me and caused me to fall..."

"This little girl pushed me!"

"Ouch! My hand hurts. I think my arm is broken..."

Meanwhile, Queenie was still standing at the same spot with her hand stretched halfway out. She was visibly stunned.

And so were Penny, Benson and Leah.

A crowd started to gather as they chattered curiously.

After regaining her senses, Penny hugged her daughter and glared angrily at the old man. "What are you doing? My daughter wanted to help you to your seat when she saw that you were feeling uncomfortable."

"But you collapsed without her even touching you." "You are obviously trying to take advantage of us given that we are not locals!"

"Do you even have a conscience?

Scamming a young child who wanted to help you?"
