Chapter 695 Conflict Between Father And Son
Ashort whileter, Michael''s birthday celebration began.
After only two sses 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.
Zachughed 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.
Moreover, we have friends and rtives from afar who havee specially to celebrate with my family. | feel exceptionally
happy today, and it''s been a long time since I''ve drunk this much."
Zayn was also rather tipsy but still self-aware at this point. "Haha, it''s an honor to be able to drink with you, General Hill. | won''t
ever forget this moment," he said whileughing.
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.
Without giving it much thought, Zayn casually changed the topic and said, "Oh right, General Hill, | wanted to ask you something.
Are you close with that young fellow Nathan who came to wish your father earlier?"
Zachughed and said in a casual tone,
"Well, we''re just friends!"
Zayn was secretly happy when he heard this, thinking that Nathan and Zach weren''t that close.
It seemed to him that Nathan had only showed up to butter up to Zach.
What he didn''t know was that Zach only addressed people as friends if they shared a genuine rtionship.
Zayn''s curiosity was triggered further, and he wanted to ask if Nathan had any support or connections from the army.
Zach pretended to be tipsy as he narrowed his eyes and asked, "Mr. Cross, why are you asking me this? Could it be that you
have a bad history with him, and you intentionally came here to dig up information on him?"
Zayn''s face turned red when he heard this, then he said awkwardly, "To tell you the truth, we do have a long-standing feud, and
there is a deep resentment between the two of us!
Looking apathetic, Zach waved his hand and said, "He has no backing from the army, and | am not interested to know about the
feud going on between you two.”
Right after he finished his sentence, he instructed the Captain of the National Guards to see all the guests out, then he stood up
and prepared to leave.
Zayn bowed and bid farewell to his host, "Thank you for your hospitality, General Hill. | will make a move now."
Zayn''s subordinates were already waiting for him in his car when he walked out from the Hill family home.
He got into the Rolls-Royce and
instructed the driver, "Drive back to
