Chapter 856 For Nathan Cross''s Sake
A Volkswagen Passat arrived at the entrance of the hotel in less than ten minutes.
Seeing it was the Director of Education, Mindy Stuart, and her secretary, Jedediah called upon Nathan, his daughter, and a few
others to apany him to wee the unexpected guests, "Oh wow, what a pleasant surprise! Channing''s Director of
Education is here!"
Mindy took a respectful look at Nathan, following on with a polite reply to Jedediah, "Mr. Zinke, I''d heard that it is your sixtieth
birthday today. | hope that you won''t mind meing unannounced to give you a toast?”
Jedediah responded quickly, "I''m honored to have you here tonight. Wee!"
Meanwhile, two Audi A6 cars showed up. It was the Mayor of Channing, Russell Crow, and his group of officials.
Jedediah gasped with amazement. He then rushed over to wee the VIPs. One could hear the excitement in his trembling
voice, as he greeted him, "Mayor, to whom do | owe the pleasure?"
Russell smiled courteously, "| was informed that it is your birthday today. | havee here personally, to wish you."This text is ? N?velDrama/.Org.
The Zinkes and all their rtives and friends who were present were greatly astounded. What an honor and privilege to have the
mayore personally, to wish him a happy birthday!
Jedediah was so ttered, that he had blushed with overwhelming exhration, "Thank you so much for gracing the asion
with your presence. What did | do to deserve all of this? Mr. Crow and all reputable officials, please take a seat inside."
While everyone was getting ready to enter the hall, a red Hongqi and five jeeps suddenly arrived. A muscr middle aged man in
casualwear alighted his vehicle with a group of soldiers.
Someone eximed, "Oh my heart, Franklin Wilson is here! Themanderin-chief of Channing''s military base is here!"
Major-General Wilson! Jedediah was beyond dumbfounded. He was awestruck.
Franklin greeted Nathan respectfully before turning to Jedediah and saying, "Mr. Zinke, | hope you don''t mind me showing up
without any prior notice. I''d discovered that it is your birthday today, so | wanted to send you my best wishes.”
The Zinkes made no mistake in their attempt to make sense of all of this. There could only be one reason why so many
influential political and military figures appeared suddenly at the birthday banquet. It was all because of Nathan Cross!
They saw how Franklin had greeted Nathan, with deference, even going as far as to address him as ‘Mr. Cross’. Then, they were
reminded of the time when Nathan had suggested waiting for more guests to show up.
Having connected all the dots, everyone now had a different perception of Nathan.
If the act of Nathan purchasing a jewelry shop for Jedediah as his birthday present showed his great wealth, then what Nathan
had just demonstrated through inviting so many political and military figures, was his amazing power and status in society.
Everyone looked at him with utter disbelief. Nathan was indeed second to none, in terms of power, privileges, and riches.
Soon, all guests were seated and the banquet began.
Many key figures and socialites took turns and toasted Jedediah, providing him much pride and satisfaction.
Unwittingly, as he was getting a bit drunk, he held Nathan''s hand and uttered emotionally, "Nathan, you are my best student. |
am so proud of what you have be. You have never let me down.”
Nathan smiled at him gently, "All thanks to you."
Jedediah casually asked, "| can see that you are definitely experiencing sess in your career right now, but what about in
terms of building a family? Have you found the one to marry yet?"
That was one question asked very bluntly!
Many turned to Nathan upon hearing that, especially Jarelle, who grew inexplicably nervous, secretly staring at Nathan.
"Oh yes, | am married and my daughter is already five years old," Nathan replied with a smile.
What?
Jedediah was bbergasted at his words, whereas Jarelle could no longer hide the disappointment on her face!
Jedediah sighed, "Ugh, | used to think about letting my daughter marry you, making you my son-inw. What a pity... It''s toote
now!”
Russell knew that Nathan and Penny were as sweet as a pair of newlyweds, so he interrupted him, "Mr. and Mrs. Cross possess
such a blissful rtionship. Every day is a happily-ever-after for them. Mr. Zinke''s daughter is a catch herself, and with such
outstanding appearance and talent, | am sure that she has many admirers too! There should be no challenge at all, for you to
find an ideal son-inw."
Jedediah responded, "Haha, that''s true, that''s true! Now that Nathan is married, | should not talk about that anymore. Let me
empty this ss as a penalty for bringing up the past.”
The multitudes clinked their sses and drank happily. The banquet ended quitete.
After the crowd had dispersed, Nathan personally drove the Zinkes back home.
Jedediah was already drunk and he was now sleeping soundly.
"Take good care of my teacher. I''ll get
going," Nathan turneq-ang leet Sf

“Hold on!" Jarelle stopped Nathan, as she gazed at his back with aplicated expression.
Nathan turned and smiled lightly, "Is there anything else, Jarelle?"
She bit her lip and then asked in a shaky voice, "Am | not good enough in your eyes?"

possible? You''re well peta dea

seen you as my sister." He conti
softly, "A tually an foie good as

Also, in my heart, you''re just like the
