Salute To The General

Chapter 137 Incessant Bragging

The next day, Nathan Cross and Penny Smith returned home from the office to find Benson and Leah

Smith waiting for them.

Benson Smith immediately spoke up the moment he saw them enter the house. "You came back at the

right time. There's something we need to discuss with both of you."

"What's wrong?" Penny Smith asked as Nathan Cross looked on curiously.

"Do you still remember your second grand uncle?" Benson Smith asked.

Penny Smith nodded. "Of course, he's the younger brother of Grandpa. I heard that he had been

working at the Northern Grand Council. Grandpa adores him too."

"He hasn't come back for a visit for more than a decade now, and he hasn't stayed in touch with us as

well."

"That's right but you know what? He came back yesterday," Benson Smith said.

"Huh? Grand Uncle is back?” Penny Smith exclaimed.

Benson Smith nodded. "He chided your grandfather for kicking us out of the family. Uncle probably

didn't want to see a rift forming within the family."

"He called me just this morning and invited us to lunch at 2pm this afternoon. He wants to discuss this

with us.”

Leah Smith bit her lip. "The Old Master already kicked us out of the family, so what's there to talk

about?"
