Awakening the War God novel Chapter 28

Chapter 28 Bosom Friend

After making a call to Ava Foster and letting her know he was safe, Gabriel Edwards returned to the Stellar Estate.

That night, he decided to go home.

To his own home.

After getting out of the car and arriving at the entrance gate of the community, he once again saw the familiar bald head.

It was Thomas Taylor, who had been waiting at the entrance for a while.

This time, it was Gabriel Edwards who had called Thomas Taylor, asking him to come over.

Since he had taken in a younger brother, he needed to nurture and make use of him.

If there's nothing else, they could also hang out.

"Boss, you're back!"

Seeing Gabriel Edwards, Thomas Taylor was delighted and greeted him.

Today was undoubtedly the pinnacle of his life.

He had met the famous Mr. Leon.

Under Mr. Leon's guidance, he also got to know a high-ranking officer from the police station.

Moreover, after confessing his own crime, he was courteously released by that high-ranking officer.

For so many years, always acting as a thug, he had never enjoyed such treatment.

He knew that all of this was orchestrated by his Boss, Gabriel Edwards, behind the scenes.

He had a shiny head, but not a big face.

He didn't have that much of a reputation.

From this point on, his admiration for Gabriel Edwards grew even stronger.

He was determined to follow Gabriel Edwards for the rest of his life.

"Get some drinks and dishes, and bring them to Building 4, Unit 1, Room 1906!"

Without stopping, Gabriel Edwards said this and then entered the community.

"Alright, Boss, I'm on it!" Thomas Taylor replied with a big smile.

He rubbed his bald head and headed towards a few small restaurants across the street.

Being able to serve Gabriel Edwards was an honor.

"Zoe, it's so late, and you're still reading?"

Opening the door, Gabriel Edwards smiled slightly.

At a glance, he saw Zoe Evans sitting on the sofa, holding a physics book.

Zoe Evans looked well, which put him at ease.

It seemed that after taking the medicine, her condition had been stabilized.

Now, he was just hoping for good news from the hospital, hoping they would find a matching organ for Zoe Evans.

If that happened, Zoe would be saved.

"Gabriel, you're back!"

Zoe Evans looked up and closed her physics book.

She gave Gabriel Edwards a gentle smile.

That smile made Gabriel Edwards feel as if he was bathed in the warmth of spring.

He felt as if he was walking by the sea, warm and relaxed.

"What have you been up to these past few days? You've been without a trace."

Just then, Blind John came out of his room.

Holding a well-worn copy of the Book of Changes in his hand, he sized up Gabriel Edwards for a moment, "Your face is glowing with a rosy hue, damn it, you little rascal, are you having another romantic streak? Did that cold beauty fall for you with just one move?"

As he spoke, Blind John seemed quite envious.

Suddenly, he felt that his left hand wasn't as good anymore.

"Get a stool. The drinks and meat will be here soon, and they'll surely shut you up!"

Hearing Blind John's words, Gabriel Edwards glared at him.

This old guy was starting to get out of line again.

The allure of Dr. Mia was something most people would find hard to resist.

"There's drinks and meat?"

Hearing about drinks and meat, Blind John's face instantly changed.

He ran back to his room with a grin, tucking a wine gourd into his waist.

Only then did he go to the kitchen and bring out a small table and stools.

Gabriel Edwards was instantly speechless.

Seeing Blind John's behavior, he guessed that the old man had finished the wine he had stored.

Soon, he would be both drinking and taking more.

He said irritably, "Have you finished your 'Three Whips and Yellow Snake' wine?"

Blind John would brew his own wine on regular days.

But the ingredients were quite peculiar. Apart from the "three whips" of bull, sheep, and horse, he would also put a few snakes of unknown species into the wine jar.

That wine was disgusting just by looking at it.

But Blind John always found it delicious.

Of course, it was for a wine lover like Blind John.

what he brewed was definitely consumed faster than he could make it, so he often carried his wine gourd around to mooch off others.

Blind John chuckled, "I've finished it. Snakes are hard to catch, and I don't have money for other ingredients. I was just waiting to get some from you!"
