Salute To The General

A few days later in Channing, Eurasia.

Sofie had spent her first week at school, and she had the weekend off.

Driving a regular car, she went over to Nathan's place.

Nathan and his family were delighted to see Sofie coming home that weekend. Everyone asked her how her first week went.

With a bright smile, Sofie replied, "It was pretty good. The students were very amiable, and there was always someone around offering me help. Some students were overly enthusiastic and friendly, though."

Nathan had been paying attention to Sofie's well-being at school all this while.

When he heard Sofie talking about someone being overly enthusiastic, he asked, "Is someone bothering you? Should I send my men over to deal with the problem?"

The truth was that there was a rich brat named Bradley Turner who had been infatuated ever since he met Sofie. He kept pestering Sofia and was as annoying as a housefly.

Despite her irritation, Sofie thought that it was not right to use her authority to deal with that minor inconvenience since she was attending the school as a regular citizen.

That was why she grinned and replied, "It's not that bad. Don't worry, Mr. Cross. I can deal with the issue on my own."

Nathan smiled. “Okay, but you must tell me if you're in trouble."ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

Sofie nodded and answered with a bright smile. "Got it."

Right then, Leah emerged from the kitchen and announced, "Dinner is ready."

Nathan and the others went to the dining table and took their seats to eat together.

During the meal, Nathan asked Sofie what her plans for the weekends were.

Sofie giggled as she spoke, "I heard about a beautiful place in a rural area in Channing. It's called Channing Waterfall Park, and it is famous as an incredibly scenic They say that the waterfall is

stunning, and everyone is allowed to swim in the crystal clear water. I want to go check it out, but I have no one to go with me. Mr. and Mrs. Cross, will you both come along?"

Penny grinned apologetically. "How I wish I could go. Unfortunately, I need to attend an important meeting tomorrow, so I won't be able to make it. Maybe Nathan can take you there. Since you're our guest, and you came all the way here from a foreign country, it's only right that we show you around."

Nathan didn't actually like the idea of going there.

However, Sofie had already extended the invitation, and Penny had also suggested that he take Sofie there.

That prompted Nathan to nod in agreement. "Okay, then I will take you to Channing Waterfall Park tomorrow and show you how beautiful Eurasia can be."

Sofie jumped and cheered in excitement upon hearing that.

After all, she was only neen, so despite behaving gracefully most of the time, the bubbly side of her would still reveal itself when she was happy.

Kylie, who had been sitting at the side, glared at Sofie with hostility burning in her eyes while she fumed inwardly What the hell, woman? You know Nathan is married, so why are you asking him to go swimming with you? My gosh, don't you know that it's not socially right for men and women to be that close? How shameless are you?

At the same time, Kylie admired how much Penny trusted Nathan. That was why the latter would let her husband take Sofie to the waterfall. It's only natural for a married couple to trust each other, but Sofie is obviously out to get Nathan. Everyone should keep their guards up, No, this won't do. I have to tag along and help Penny keep an eye on Nathan... Or, more accurately, I need to keep an eye on that slutty Sofie to prevent her from seducing Nathan.

Those thoughts prompted Kylie to use a coquettish tone on Nathan. "Nathan, I want to go check out the waterfall too, and it's been a while since I last swam. Will you take me with the two of you tomorrow?"

Kylie had always been a little weird, so everyone simply smiled when they saw her acting slightly out of character that day.

"Okay, if that is what you want, then come join us," said Nathan.

Upon hearing his reply, Kylie grinned from ear to ear. "Yay!"

Sofie, who was sitting at the side, sensed something off, so she snuck a peek at Kylie.

At that moment, the latter sensed Sofie's gaze and turned to look right into her opponent's eyes.

It seemed that the two ladies were officially at odds.
