Salute To The General (Nathan Cross) novel Chapter 761

On a bench under a tree by the entrance of the Four Seasons Hotel.

Nathan sat casually on the bench as he smoked, while Colin stood beside him "General, Zayn's operation was a success, and the blood clot has been extracted. Dr. Rothschild said that he should be about to regain consciousness in a day or two."

Nathan had a somewhat mournful expression as he replied calmly, "Good!"

He suddenly noticed that there were a lot of students cleaning up the streets, and they even wiped the utility poles on the side of the street clean.

That piqued his curiosity. "What are they doing?"

Colin looked at the students and flashed a bright smile. "Tomorrow is Memorial Day!"

Nathan finally understood what was going on." Memorial Day! I would've forgotten if you didn't tell me!”

Colin nodded. "When I came by just now, I realized there were a lot of students cleaning up the streets. According to the flyers they put up, they were cleaning up to prepare for Memorial Day."

Nathan felt a sense of pride as he smiled. "This is great!”

They were living in peace now because of the countless soldiers defending their nation.

Only by the sacrifice of countless heroic lives could they experience peace, so they felt a sense of pride when they remembered the soldiers' contribution to their nation.

Only by appreciating what they had could they strive to better themselves, so they treated Memorial Day with utmost respect.

Nathan asked Colin, "Tomorrow is Memorial Day, so there must be many events going around nationwide. Do we have anything of the sort in Cledondale?"

"Yes! Schools send their students to museums to be reminded of the heroic sacrifice the soldiers made; companies have their own events as well. Besides that, Mayor Kenny Wates and Commander-in-chief Darius Clooney will gather the military leaders and honor the fallen warriors at the Lionheart Memorial Park."

"Tell Kenny and Darius we'll be attending their event tomorrow."

Colin replied in a low voice, "Alright!"

As Nathan returned to the hotel room, Penny and Kylie welcomed him.

Penny immediately said, "Hubby, where did you go? I was looking for you."
