Salute To The General -
Chapter 2786
When the others saw Annie concede first, they all knew Eagleland's royal family was involved in the attack by the werewolves. Otherwise, there was no way Annie would've given in when she was condemning Nathan fervently a while ago. Nathan leveled a cold gaze at Annie.
He knew Annie was insinuating for both sides to drop the issue. She was requesting Nathan to stop pursuing the truth behind the werewolves' attack in exchange for the royal family dropping the case about Nathan killing Szymon. It was a compromise from both sides. Nathan stated calmly, "I'm not a petty person. Eurasia is known as the country of etiquette. Since you suggested setting aside our prejudice, I can agree to your request and drop the matter. However, you'll have to show your sincerity if you hope to have any future collaboration with Eurasia. I won't agree to your request if you're adamant about taking the Ariaricans' side and hurting Eurasia's interest. The same applies to my country."
Nathan's words put Annie in a difficult
spot.
The royal family present at the venue all had differing expressions.
Nathan rose to his feet, fixed his collar, and bid Annie farewell.
"Thank you for your hospitality tonight and the past two days. It's time for me to return home. I'm leaving Eagleland later, thereby putting an end to my visit. Hopefully, you'll be sincere in collaborating with us the next time we meet."
Nathan and his wife, Penny, spun around and left. Following right on their heels were Colin, Ava, and the rest.
After Nathan and his group left, realization dawned on Annie. She never expected the meeting with Nathan would end on bad terms.
Moreover, did he imply if Eagleland doesn't negotiate with Eurasia sincerely, there won't be a future collaboration?
Annie's expression darkened at the prospect of that thought. Our nation's economy has been heading on a downward slope in recent years. We're dependent on Eurasia's market. If Nathan changes his attitude and strategy in dealing with Eagleland, the consequences for Eagleland will be severe.
Jurgis noticed the grim expression on Annie's face.
Thinking she was angered by Nathan, he said, "Queen Annie, you saw for yourself how arrogant Nathan was and Eurasia's insolence. They dared to look down at us. We can't let this matter slide. I suggest we teach Nathan a lesson while he's still in our country." Annie snapped, "I don't want to talk about this anymore. I'm exhausted and need a break. Everyone, you're dismissed. Go back and rest, all of you."
Jurgis stomped away when Annie disregarded his suggestion.
The rest of the royal family bid their farewell to Annie before they left.
The anger within Jurgis deepened when he got back to his residence. He couldn't accept Nathan not suffering any repercussions for his son-in-law's death.
With a fierce glint flashing across his eyes, he summoned his subordinate. "Assemble every elite of the family immediately. I want all of them gathered here in ten minutes. Nathan must meet his death before he can leave our borders. I must avenge Szymon's death!" "Yes, Your Highness.'
Meanwhile, Annie was talking on the phone with Max back in the palace.
Annie informed, "Admiral Max, the situation is deteriorating."
Max assured, "Please rest assured, Queen Annie. I'll solve the problem before it festers any further. Moab from Shadow Fang has promised me he would lead his men to slaughter Nathan. He's one of the ten leaders of the ten major werewolf clans. Besides, he's also a well-known elder among the werewolf community, so there are no doubts about his abilities. Nathan will surely die this time around. I've already requested Moab to assassinate Nathan right after Nathan and his group cross Eagleland's border." Annie replied, "Excellent! I'll wait for your good news."
