Salute To The General

Chapter 695 Conflict Between Father And Son

Ashort while later, Michael's birthday celebration began. After only two glasses of wine, Nathan and his entourage bid farewell and left the banquet.

Zayn, on the other hand, was in no rush to leave. He could hold his drinks well, so he stayed on and continued drinking with Zach and the rest.

Meanwhile, Michael went back to his room early to rest given his advanced age.

By then, most of the guests had left. The only ones remaining were Zach and a few other drinkers. Many of them drank until they passed out on the table.

The only ones who weren't drunk at the main table were Zayn and Zach. Zach laughed and said, "I don't ever drink when I'm in the army, but today is a holiday and it's also my father's birthday.

Zach smiled and replied, "Haha, what's so great about drinking with me? Your family is way more prominent in society!" Speaking of prominence, Zach was actually referring to Nathan, whom he deemed to be the glory of the Cross Family. However, Zayn didn't get the reference as he thought Zach was simply being polite.

Zayn casually changed the topic and said, "Oh right, General Hill, | wanted to ask you something. Are you
