Salute To The General

Chapter 2384



Cheryl took out a handkerchief and diligently wiped the chair before sitting beside Nathan. She stared at him with narrowed eyes before saying nonchalantly, “We used to be classmates, and we could be considered friends after graduation. However, you didn't look for me the last time you came to the capital. I was the one who took the initiative to look for you. This time, if we hadn't met by coincidence, I'm assuming that you wouldn't have taken the initiative to contact me, am I right?"

Nathan chuckled. "How can that be? I've been wanting to visit your house, but I just haven't found the right time to do so."

Cheryl scoffed. "That's an excuse!

Despite knowing that you're lying, hearing it still makes me happy."

Upon hearing that, Nathan was unsure how to react.

Cheryl poured herself some white wine in another glass and raised it toward him. “Cheers."

Although there were ten guests at the table, she only toasted him.

However, the guests knew who she was and could tell that her focus was solely on Nathan, so they did not dare to show unhappiness at her lack of acknowledgment.

Nathan clinked glasses with her.

After consuming another glass of wine, Cheryl's cheeks grew red, which made her seem even more alluring.

As she gazed at him, her voice also became gentle. "When did you return to the capital?"
