Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1341

Nathan had just sent Kenneth Greene and the others off when Penny Smith sauntered to his side and asked warmly, "Hubby, you okay?"

Nathan reassured her, "Yep, I'm fine!"

After learning of her husband's state of mind, Penny couldn't help but asked, "Are we still visiting the Shrine of Tenryu for a blessing?"

As it turned out, Nathan and Peggy had recently started on their list of things to do for their wedding.

Originally, the wedding was supposed to be held earlier, as promised by Nathan. However, it was postponed due to Penny's chaotic work schedule and the fact that Nathan was in mourning.

It wasn't until now that they had finally come to an agreement that both of them are ready to undergo the wedding ceremony.

Benson and Leah were beyond excited when they received news that Nathan and Penny were going to have a wedding ceremony. After all, which parent wouldn't want to see their daughter get married in a ceremonious and glamorous wedding?

Even though Benson and Leah had long accepted Nathan into their household, they still felt that his marriage with their daughter was not complete as there wasn't any sort of ceremony held back then. They regretted not being able to invite their close friends and relatives over to officially witness the wedding of their child.

Hence, they were over the moon to hear that Nathan and Penny were finally going to have the wedding ceremony they had missed out on.

The couple was going to a shrine for blessings before their actual wedding ceremony as it was a long-time practice in their families. They had figured that their wedding would only be complete if they honored the customs in their households.

This day, Nathan, Penny as well as Benson and Leah had arranged for a visit to the

Shrine of Tenryu to ask for blessings from a saint.

However, just when they were about to set off, Nathan apologized to Penny, "Sorry darling, something urgent just turned up. Could you and your parents go to the shrine for the blessing without me instead?"

Penny's tongue got stuck in her throat. Receiving a blessing from the saint is such an important ritual for the newlyweds in the Smith household, would it be appropriate for Nathan to sit out of it?

Yet, she had an inkling that Nathan had something serious going on.

No matter what happened, she had total faith in Nathan.

Since Nathan had chosen not to tell her about his situation, he must have his reasons. Thus, Penny decided to stay out of it and merely nodded instead, "Alright!"

Nathan put on his jacket and was about to leave the house when Peggy halted him,

"Hubby, wait a second!”

Nathan paused and asked in puzzlement, "What's up, darling?"

"Your collar is not straight!"
