Salute to the General novel Chapter 706

At the Jagger residence in Horton.

The Jaggers were a prominent family that had been around for centuries, but their influence gradually waned in recent decades. Nevertheless, they still wielded significant power.

The dated look of their luxurious manor was a reflection of their past glory.

Nevertheless, to be able to own such a large manor in Horton was an achievement by itself.

Driving into the Jagger manor, Nathan and family noticed that there were many luxury cars parked inside.

It seemed that many guests had come to celebrate Grandma's birthday.

After parking their car, they entered the Jagger manor.

Inside, the great hall was decorated with lanterns and festoons while many guests paraded in and out. An old lady with grey hair was sitting on a platform overlooking the hall. Surrounded by servants, she was busy receiving the guests who came to pay their respects.

The old lady, who was elegantly dressed, was Benson's mother, Sandra Jagger.

"Mom, I brought my whole family here to celebrate your birthday with you."

"All of us would like to wish you a very happy birthday and many happy returns!"

One by one, Benson led his family members to pay their respects to Sandra. At the same time, they presented her with a gift.

Penny was the one who had prepared the gift. It was a diamond pendant that cost a hundred thousand.

For any ordinary person, it was considered an extravagant gift.

But, when compared to the gifts that Sandra had received, it was seen as cheap.

Sandra didn't have many feelings for her children from the Smith family. It was just that she appreciated Benson's devotion to her, therefore she invited him to the birthday banquet.

At that moment, she looked at Benson's family in a condescending manner and waved them aside. "Thanks for coming. Please find a seat. You can leave after you finish dinner. As there are a lot of guests here today, I have no time to entertain you all personally."

Benson replied instantly, "It's fine, mom. You don't have to entertain us, we can...”

Before he could finish, someone suddenly rushed in to report, "Madam Jagger, Xavier Yates, son of Horton property magnate Zack Yates, has arrived."

When Sandra heard that Xavier was here, the previously aloof old dame quickly stood up with the support of her cane. She cried out in excitement, "Xavier is here? He's an extremely important guest!"
