Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 1982

In Channing, at the Riverside Garden, Nathan was with Penny, Kylie, Benson, and Leah.

Together with his daughter, Queenie, they were having dinner.

Smiling, Nathan asked his daughter, “Queenie, how are you settling in school? Are you doing okay?”

It turned out that Nathan and Penny had recently transferred Queenie to a new school -Tulip Elementary.

They did so because everyone, including the students' parents at her previous school, knew about Queenies' identity.

They knew that her father was the General of the North, while her mother was the chairman of the top pharmaceutical company in the nation.

Therefore, to them, Queenie was someone of influence and wealth.

As such, the principal and teachers would always favor her, and her classmates tried all ways to please her.

Even when the parents came to school, they were always extra polite to Penny, and some even stuffed gifts into Queenie's bag. They wanted Queenie to bring it to her parents so they could become friends with Nathan and Penny.

Thus, it had a negative impact on the children, and it wasn't only Queenie but her schoolmates as well.

In regards to that, Nathan and Penny decided to transfer their daughter to another school after some consideration.

They decided on Tulip Elementary - an ordinary school in Channing.

Only the principal knew about Queenie's background there, while the teachers and students were still kept in the dark.

To ensure that it stayed that way, Nathan purposely stated that he was a security guard and Penny was a factory assembly line worker, clearly indicating that Queenie was poor.

He even chose to ride a scooter to send his child to and from school so she could blend in with the rest of the students.
