Chapter 1475 Hayden Howard


    Nathan had just given Colin instructions when he received a phone call from his daughter, Queenie.


    He heard his daughter asking anticipatingly through the phone, "Papa, it''s my birthday tomorrow.


    Can you make it back in time to celebrate it with me?”


    Her words reminded him that tomorrow was his daughter''s seventh birthday.


    He curled his lips into an indulgent smile as he made a promise, "Alright, papa wille back to


    celebrate your birthday with you."


    Queenie jumped and cheered excitedly, "Hooray! Papa, you''re the best!"


    After chatting with her a short while longer, Nathan ended the call.


    Subsequently, he made a phone call to Wendy, telling her that tomorrow was his daughter''s birthday


    and that he would be going back to Channing for two days.


    Without any hesitation, Wendy told him


    she wasing along to Channing; she was eager to meet Penny and little Queenie.


    Nathan and Wendy boarded the ne to Channing the next day. Colin and the Elite Eight, however,


    stayed in Mayberry to continue with the investigation.


    Queenie, Penny, her family, and her bodyguard were already waiting for Nathan and Wendy at the


    exit when they walked out of the airport.


    "Papa!" Queenie brightened up the moment she saw Nathan.


    She raced toward him, and thetter picked her up in his arms.


    Penny and the others followed suit, with Penny looking at Nathan lovingly.


    "You''re back!” Penny muttered. It had been a while since she and Nathan had spent time together;


    their eyes were full of incandescent love for each other.


    Nathan smiled and introduced Wendy to all of them, "Let me introduce you guys. This is my mom''s


    biological sister, my aunt, Wendy."


    Penny and the others were slightly surprised because Wendy looked young and beautiful, even as


    an aunt. It was as if she was only in her thirties. They couldn''t help raising their eyebrows at the


    large age gap between Nathan''s mom and her sister.


    After greeting each other, Wendy handed a jade pendant and a jade bracelet to Queenie and Penny


    respectively as gifts for it was their first meeting.


    Penny was pleasantly surprised. "Wendy, is this for me?"


    Wendy exined smilingly, "Nathan''s mom is no longer around, but I have always treated him like


    my son. I''m giving this bracelet to you as the daughter-inw of the Cross family on behalf of


    Nathan''s mom."


    Penny''s cheeks flushed red at her words.


    Since Queenie was the birthday girl, she could be the one to call the shots to order her favorite


    dishes.


    Queenie gave it some thought before enumerating them while counting on her fingers. "I like to eat


    buffalo wings, meatballs, casserole..."


    Nathan and the others were slightly bewildered upon hearing her choice of dishes when they


    realized that those were allmon dishes at a banquet.


    Penny let out a sigh. "My sry was previously just enough to keep the wolf from the door, so we


    can''t afford to spend a lot on our daily meals. Queenie could only feast when we attended other


    people''s banquets."


    She patted Queenie''s hair affectionately as she continued, "That''s why she doesn''t favor avish


    spread of delicacies but is rather fond of thesemon banquet dishes. To her, these are some of


    the most delicious foods from her memory."


    Both Benson and Leah sighed when they recalled the rough time they had gone


    through.


    They were grateful to have Nathan as their son-inw. Without Nathan, they wouldn''t be able to get


    through the rough patch and live a happy life now!


    With a smile on his face, Nathan granted his daughter her wish. "Since Queenie likes to eat these


    banquet dishes, we''ll find an authentic farm-to-table restaurant."


    Soon, they arrived at a small-scaled farmhouse restaurant and ordered quite a lot of dishes; all of


    them weremon, homely foods.

    Just as they were about to dig in, a convoy of jeeps with Mayberry military districts'' number tes


    screeched to a halt in front of the restaurant.


    A tall man in his lieutenant colonel military outfit got out of the first jeep.


    He was none other than Hayden Howard.


    Standing next to him was the first lieutenant, Jasper Quenton.


    About a dozen of soldiers got out of the jeeps behind them.
