Pri Minister Jake from the Sand Kingdom saw Queen Rachel coming with huge montum and arched his eyebrows. He felt that this was the first ti he saw Queen Rachel being so emotional.
And he could guess the reason.
Aside from Prince Charles, there was no one or nothing else that could make Queen Rachel so emotional based on the investigation. But of course, Pri Minister Jake would pretend that he knew nothing.
Guess and confird guess were different after all.
"It seems that you’re determined to win this negotiation, Queen Rachel," Pri Minister Jake said, his tone was light.
Queen Rachel glanced at Pri Minister Jake. "You’re also confident, Pri Minister Jake."
Pri Minister Jake smiled brightly. "Without Lady Aurora, I don’t think there would be many people who could push back."
Even in the Sand Kingdom, Pri Minister Jake was known to be hard to deal with. Because he was a person who had risen from the bottom and made a lot of troubles on the court.
There were very few people who could make him lost.
Aurora was one of them.
Now that Aurora was not here, Pri Minister Jake was confident that he could definitely have the advantage in the negotiation.
"If you’re blindly confident, you might not be able to survive, Pri Minister Jake," Queen Rachel said with a snort.
She never liked this confident Pri Minister Jake from the Sand Kingdom. Ever since she could rember, she had lost several tis in Pri Minister Jake’s hand and could not do anything against him.
But even if she did suffer so losses, it was still within an acceptable range.
Pri Minister Jake also didn’t dare to push too hard.
In the negotiation, they have a sense of asure. After all, they were not bitter enemies and even if they wanted to seek profit for themselves, they would not push the opponent too hard.
They still wanted a long agreent.
"I know~." Pri Minister Jake chuckled and then looked at the door that was opened. "Ah, it’s already the ti."
Queen Rachel nodded and walked inside. She saw Queen Ella and Pri Minister Lat who were ready to support her. Sweeping her gaze to the other side of the room, she saw Crown Prince Edward and Adela, who were sitting at the side.
The two of them would not participate in the negotiation and only ca as spectator.
With such important matter on the stake, Queen Ella definitely couldn’t let her son make trouble.
So Crown Prince Edward and Adela were under strict order not to speak at all during the negotiation.
"It’s been a while since we et." Queen Ella showed a smile when she saw them, but the look in her eyes were cold. She could see the fighting spirit of Queen Rachel and also the playfulness in Pri Minister Jake’s eyes. Only the representative from the Orange Kingdom looked calm.
This would not be an easy negotiation.

"This rate wouldn’t do, Queen Ella," Pri Minister Jake said as he pushed the docunts back. "As you know, the kingdom behind is dissatisfied with the current rate and wished they could get more."
Queen Ella’s lips twitched. "This is already very low, Pri Minister Jake. We couldn’t give up on that mine."
"The mine is important for both sides and in the past few years, the rates have been quite high for us." Pri Minister Jake shrugged. "I don’t think you would want to see more trades broken up because the situation is not good, do you?"
It was a threat.
Queen Ella took a deep breath and looked at Pri Minister Lat who was standing beside her. He was also looking at the docunts with dark face.
It was clear that they have been taking advantage of the Sand Kingdom in the past few years with Aurora’s leading the battle. It was unknown what she actually said to make Pri Minister Jake relented and give the favorable rate for them.
Now that Aurora was not here, Pri Minister Jake refused to back down.
The problem was, neither Queen Ella or Pri Minister Lat knew what Aurora said to Pri Minister Jake before.
Queen Rachel and the representative from the Orange Kingdom might know.
But why should they say it?
Their relationship with the Yellow Kingdom were only cooperative relationship at best. Queen Rachel was more likely to help Queen Ella.
It was just...
Queen Rachel was full of rage towards the Yellow Kingdom right now.
She was not willing to help at all!
In this way, Queen Ella had no way to break through this situation.
"Let’s take a break first."
"Yes."
No negotiation could be completed in the past few hours. They basically spent their entire morning scolding each other in their heart and none of them were willing to compromise. No one also had the confidence to make the other party relented.
It was a big failure.
"It’s taking so long," Crown Prince Edward muttered in a low voice.
"Um." Adela nodded and looked at the few people in the negotiation room. Since it was break ti, so of them walked out to get fresh air or to get so lunch. After all, it was already ti for lunch.
She herself also didn’t want to stay in this room if it was possible.
"What did you write?" Crown Prince Edward suddenly asked as he pointed at the notes on Adela’s lap.
While Crown Prince Edward was half dozing when he was in the room, Adela was trying to write notes about what they were discussing. However, Adela had to admit that she didn’t understand many things.
The words were easy to understand but when they were all joined to form a sentence, Adela was confused.
"The notes during the eting," Adela replied.
"Eh, you don’t have to do it. There’s already soone who’s responsible for writing the content of the eting." Crown Prince Edward pointed to the person who sit on the opposite side of the room.
