Awakening the War God novel Chapter 85

Chapter 85 Collusion

Compared to the furious Davis family, the Adams family was much quieter.

The War Department helped take care of the funerals of Captain Johnson and the four guards.

All the coordination was handled under the supervision of it.

In the meantime, the three army green trucks stood guard at the entrance of the Adams' house, serving as a deterrent.

When everything had been done, it was already past 9 p.m.

Gabriel didn't leave. Now he was sitting in the dining room of the Adams' house.

The table was filled with everyday dishes, many of which were served in bowls instead of plates.

There were also two bottles of very precious wine, which had been stored for over fifteen years.

There were only four people at the table, so the atmosphere was a bit cold.

They were Santos, Maria, Gabriel, and Division Commander James Lucas, who had come here from the War Department.

James had a typical square face and a very serious demeanor. Now he was sitting up straight.

He exuded a strong military aura, displaying it to the fullest.

Gabriel was a bit entranced.

After Santos introduced James to him, he felt that something was strange with James.

It was a feeling of familiarity, awe, and sacredness.

He felt like he had found the roots in the body.

Do I have some kind of relationship with the War Department? Gabriel thought.

His head began to ache, but he couldn't remember anything.

"Gabriel, you can drink some wine, right? An ordinary person usually won't have a chance to drink this wine of mine. It has been buried in the backyard. You won't find anything like it after draining all these bottles!"

Santos uncorked a bottle, and Maria brought three glasses.

Although it was fine wine, they used large goblets.

Maria seemed to have experience in pouring wine. She made the wine reach the brim of each glass with bubbles floating on the surface.

James laughed, "It's really rare to have a chance to drink Mr. Adams' wine. I didn't come in vain!"

Gabriel finally came back to his senses. He said honestly, "I can drink a bottle of wine, but no more. If I drink more, I'll get drunk and lose my senses!

"I've been drunk twice. The first time, I went to a cattle farm outside the city and killed seven or eight cows with seven or eight punches, making the owner cry in distress!

"I lost everything the next day. I paid tens of thousands of dollars in compensation!

"After that, I ate beef every day for several months!"

"Hahaha!" they laughed.

It sounded like a boastful joke, but everything Gabriel said was true.

Christopher Evans, Zoe Evans, and Blind John had all experienced the nightmarish night.

Afterwards, when Gabriel asked about it, none of them were willing to mention it.

"You must have drunk adulterated wine!" Not believing him, Maria asked, "What about the other time you got drunk?"

Gabriel sighed and shook his head. "I don't even know what I did. I asked my roommates, but they refused to say anything as if they had seen a ghost!"

That was something strange indeed.

Even Zoe remained tight-lipped.

"You're really interesting, Gabriel. Let's have a toast."

James proposed, and the four of them drained their first glass.

Maria also raised her glass generously, a move that was not inferior to that of a man.
