Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1499

When they exited the restaurant, Penny softly asked with much concern, "Now that we have offended the Japanese prince, would he come look for us to take revenge in the future? Hubby, maybe we should just call off attending the summit and escape from here!"

Nathan smiled. "He's merely a Japanese prince. He isn't accomplished enough to scare us away."

Even though Penny was still worried, she didn't pursue the topic any further since Nathan had said that. They could only follow their original plan and attend the International Pharmaceutics Economy Summit.

It was evident that the incident didn't affect Nathan's mood at all.

After they strolled for a little while longer, they headed back to their hotel.

They heard from the attendant that there was an indoor onsen in the hotel, so they decided to go check it out.

"Phew. I haven't been this relaxed in a long while. Soaking in the onsen really soothes my nerves!"

Topless, Nathan sat in the hot spring tub. Even though his body wasn't as flashy or muscular as a bodybuilder's, he was still lean and fit like a professional swimmer, and one could easily tell that he was very powerful.

Besides that, there were a lot of scars on his body, and they all were 'trophies' he had earned from the battlefield.

In a swimsuit, Penny was rubbing Nathan's back gently.

As she caressed the scars on his back, her expression was that of pride and love.

How many battles must he have gone through to earn so many scars? How did he, a mere soldier, rise to be the God of War?

Penny couldn't help but ask the story behind every scar of his and whether if it hurt or not.

Nathan smiled and replied, "Getting injuries is a common occurrence for every soldier, and we are already so used to it to the point that we forsake our own lives.”

Penny couldn't help but hug Nathan when he said that. She pressed her face gently on his back and said softly, "Hubby, I'm very proud of you."

On the other hand, all that Nathan felt was the surprising suppleness of her skin. He smirked and said, "Honey, I think your figure is getting better and better by the day."

Penny blushed instantly as she replied shyly, "Nonsense!"
