Chapter 605 (1/2)
In the newly completed United Chamber of Commerce in red blood castle, Roger Yoder is sitting in a lavishly decorated banquet hall full of eboden style, enjoying the host's hospitality without expression.
Forty year old red blood wine, classic wine stewed beef, Western Saxophone style snacks, and even a delicious blue cod... Although slightly pickled, the cost of the journey from eboden to Bain alone is amazing.
However, old Roger was not in the mood to eat at the moment. He clenched the armrests on both sides of the chair and looked warily at the petite and weak figure at the other end of the long table.
”Lord Roger Yoder, please come and visit in person. It's really an honor for our chamber of Commerce.”
Sitting in a chair with long silver hair, Ariel corona looked upright and said in a soft and childish voice, ”I hope today's party is in line with your appetite. I hope you can understand anything thoughtless.”
Old Roger, who heard this, frowned and looked more gloomy; Cold eyes swept around the banquet hall, as if a pair of eyes were peeping at themselves from a corner.
”What are you looking for? You can ask if you need...”
”Don't say such polite things to me, Miss Ariel of the corona family!” the frosty old Roger coldly interrupted the girl's words and looked at her impolitely:
”You and I know the reason for today's meeting, so don't continue nonsense!”
”Why?”
”Don't challenge my patience, especially today!” looking at the confused girl, old Roger gradually exerted his hands holding the armrest of the chair, and his tight fingertips began to turn white.
Of course, he knows the purpose of the other party's sudden banquet - the United Chamber of Commerce, which has won several trade points in the north of Bain, needs time to digest the new territory and establish a stable business route, and at the same time, he should be prepared to face the counter attack of Yoder chamber of Commerce;
However, it doesn't matter, because the weakened yode chamber of commerce also needs time to recover and fine tune, so it's not impossible to make a temporary reconciliation... But it doesn't mean that he can accept a puppet obviously thrown by the other party as his equal negotiation object!
”I have no intention of humiliating you, Miss Ariel, but I also know that you are not the real person in charge of the United Chamber of Commerce... So save time for both of us...”
Old Roger spoke with a gloomy face: ”the last time... Don't challenge my patience!”
A long silence.
The girl sitting opposite gently put down the tableware in her hand, and the last emotion in the corner of her mouth disappeared without a trace and changed back to the original simple indifference.
Old Roger glanced warily behind him.
He knows very well that this is the base camp of the other party, and it is a taboo to personally commit risks; If the other party is really ready to tear his face and do it himself, then
”I'm still wondering why the restaurant of the chamber of commerce is so busy today. It turns out that there are guests.”
Old Roger was stunned by the sudden sound, stared in shock, and suddenly looked up at the door behind the girl!
How, how... Did you hear wrong?!
”Really, Miss Ariel is really cute and naughty - since there are guests, why don't you inform me?”
The footsteps knocked on the floor tiles in the corridor behind the door and sent out a clear echo. The clearer and clearer voice of words made old Roger's expression more and more stunned and more unbelievable.
No, impossible, impossible! He, he is not already
”However, I think it doesn't matter. After all, everyone is so familiar that a slight neglect won't seem too rude...”
”Pa --!”
At the moment when the door opened, old Roger suddenly got up, looked at the gentle ”familiar figure” who came in from behind the door, put his hands on his back, smiled and bowed to himself:
”Father, I'm back.”
Marto Yod... The one who failed in the imperial capital and should have died in the gem River... His own son?!
It's him?!
”Your expression... Seems a little suspicious?” little Yod smiled gently and stroked his chest with his right hand:
”Yes, it's me, the eldest son you threw away as an abandoned son.”
