Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 3389

In keeping with tradition, a nickname should also be chosen for the child.

Moreover, the nickname should be a humble one. It is believed that by doing so, the child wouldn't incur the envy of the heavens and could grow up healthy.

Thus, in response to his mother-in-law's insistent request, Nathan gave his son the nickname Jelly because he found jellies ugly.

The child wasn't ugly at all. He inherited the genes of Nathan and Penny. Hence, even though he was just a baby, he looked as delicate as a beautifully carved piece of jade. He was exceptionally adorable.

Nathan did the exact opposite of what was expected, deliberately naming his son Jelly.

His mother-in-law kept saying what a good nickname it was.

Penny couldn't help but smile, finding her husband incredibly humorous. Their child was as adorable as a carved jade, yet he playfully nicknamed their son Jelly.

The family was basking in joy and harmony.

Suddenly, Ava came from outside, speaking softly. “Mr. Cross, an envoy from the Curia has arrived at Eurasia for a friendly visit.”

Nathan was taken aback. Didn't the alliance just disband? Haven't I just met with Pope Eugene not too long ago? Why has the Curia sent someone to visit again? I'm afraid the visit might be a pretense. Could they have ulterior motives? I feel the Curia is increasingly suspicious of my identity. Even after I have returned to Eurasia, the Curia still won't let it go. They continue to send people to investigate my identity!

He asked calmly, “Who has the Curia sent?”

Ava truthfully said, “Leading them is the Holy Maiden Hepburn, along with some cardinals and Holy Knights.”

Hepburn! Why is she here? Nathan was momentarily taken aback. After a brief pause, he instructed, “Lead her to the side hall to wait. I will attend to her shortly.”

“Okay!”

Soon, Nathan, along with Penny, arrived at the side hall with Ava and their subordinates.

Upon seeing Nathan and Penny, Hepburn quickly stood up to greet them. “Good day, Mr. Cross, Mrs. Cross!”

Nathan said with a smile, “Ms. Hepburn, there's no need for such formalities.”
