Wagner took a deep breath and then looked at his granddaughter with satisfaction, saying, "Well done. Actually, I was just testing you. I wasn't actually going to go up and toast them!"
After saying this, he seemed to remember something and whispered, "I heard you know the commander of the Celestial Dragon Squadron?"
Sammy did not need to ask to know what the old man was thinking. She solemnly advised, "Grandpa, I urge you not to have any ideas. The Roche family has already given us great benefits out of respect for Commander Calcraft. If we push our luck, it will only backfire!"
A glint flashed in Wagner's eyes. "Sammy, I never realized how sharp you were before."
Sammy pouted. "That's because you used to focus all your attention on your precious grandson!"
Wagner glanced at his grandson, Houston, who was gnawing on a drumstick with greasy lips. He could not help but shake his head with bitter amusement, feeling extremely disappointed.
Houston was his second son's son. He was 16 years old this year, only one year younger than Sammy.
Nonetheless, the gap between them was self-evident.
Kaden was in a very good mood today.
However, as he was older now, he could not hold his liquor as well as he used to. He blacked out in less than half an hour.
Darius, Mikael, and the two retired old men took over the task of keeping him company.
Nonetheless, they were no match for Nash and Dallas.
They did not even need to use their true energy to make everyone suffer from the drinks.
The banquet lasted for two hours.
Then, Dallas organized the Divine Strategy Squadron to return to Capiton.
Nash also had Euria organize the members of the Celestial Dragon Squadron to return to the base.
Nash decided to stay in Munford for half a day more. It was also to let Yorick spend more time with his great-grandfather.
According to what he learned at the dinner table, Kaden's son and grandson had both sacrificed themselves for the country.
His daughter-in-law also passed away due to illness in previous years, leaving only his granddaughter-in-law and Yorick at home.
If he took Yorick away, the old man would lose another companion.
