Chapter 438 Old Cow Trying to Chew Young Grass
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━First, the Black Tiger could have been cooperating with their neighboring enemy from the beginning, and was only pretending to be somewhat loyal to Oriana.
Or second, and much more likely, was that they got greedy and ended up selling the blueprints thinking that no one would find out. After all, while it was unlikely, it wouldn\'t be the first time that two countries developed similar weapons at the same time.
Perhaps if their intelligence agency hadn\'t obtained the leaks due to a series of unexpected accidents, even they would have been fooled.
Just thinking about it made the president feel enraged. Not only the White Deer, but even the Black Tiger dared to treat him like a gullible idiot!
Even if the blueprints leaked this time only belonged to a somewhat advanced handgun and not something critical to their national security, this was still a naked slap to the face!
He couldn\'t help but slam his fist on the table again, eyes red in both fury and resentment. "Bastards! If not for the country\'s support, would either of these ungrateful bastards be able to grow to this point?!"
Unfortunately, before he could even decide on how to begin dealing with these \'disobedient dolls\', someone burst in through the door in a panic.
If not for the intelligence director recognizing the man in time and giving the signal just in time, perhaps he would already have been shot and killed, but the man didn\'t seem to care at all.
"P-President, M-Mr. President! E-Emilia White… s-she took over the Republic of Blue Dawn!"
Of course, it was now called the Blue Dawn Empire, but neither the president nor the other officials could care about that at all right now.
Because this time, the president really had a stroke!
"P-President!"
"Mr. President!"
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Emilia naturally didn\'t care about the panicked situation in Oriana\'s presidential office, because she was busy receiving her friends from the airport.
"Are you sure it\'s safe to have them here already? Don\'t forget, although you\'ve done quite well so far, it\'s not like the situation is completely under your control. Won\'t they become a liability if they come in at this time?"
Feeling her partner\'s dissatisfaction, the crimson-haired girl paused in surprise. "Crystal, Dixie, and Noelle… being a liability? How can that be?"
Although she agreed that the situation wasn\'t completely under her control yet, as far as Emilia was concerned, their presence couldn\'t make things difficult for her at all. If anything, their arrival would greatly help her instead.
Whether it was Noelle\'s management, Dixie\'s diligence and strength, or Crystal\'s ability to see through people, Emilia felt that each of them would bring invaluable benefits not just to her, but her empire as a whole.
Not to mention, their presence alone would boost her motivation and make her work harder and with less stress.
The only pity was that while most of them had been taken out of Oriana, only these three were able to arrive in Blue Dawn at this time.
Of course, Emilia understood that they couldn\'t risk alerting her home country\'s authorities before, but she still felt a little sad when she thought about how long it had been since she met Sam.
Even Michelle, her ever-loyal maid, had been separated from her for the longest time ever since they met!
Although many of her subordinates here tried their best to get closer to her, Emilia greatly depended on her intuition and innate compatibility with a person to decide how close she would let them get.
And so far, none of them managed to cross the boundary of \'cute children she had to take care of\' in Emilia\'s eyes.
Of course, it didn\'t stop them from continuing to try, and Emilia didn\'t really mind as long as they followed some basic etiquette.
Cynthia didn\'t really feel like arguing with her partner too much over the topic, so she just shrugged helplessly. "Well, you can do whatever you want. Just make sure they don\'t get caught up in trouble and end up ruining your plans."
Emilia couldn\'t help but roll her eyes. "Have you been watching too many dramas recently? And here I thought that the TV in your little nest only really showed what I saw. Maybe you should invite me to binge on some good ones as well, eh?"
The raven-haired girl pouted. "Obviously I\'m only talking about it for your own good, but here you go teasing me again!"
Besides, even though it was certainly possible for her to capture the signals in the air and decipher them to get \'live TV\' on the screen in her \'nest\', as Emilia called it, it required the girl to be much stronger than she was right now.
After all, for the weak, even trivial tasks required a tremendous amount of effort, and Cynthia didn\'t want to consume too much of their energy just to quench her boredom.
Emilia giggled. "Okay, okay. Don\'t worry, baby, I won\'t let any of them get hurt."
"Who\'s worried?!"
Fortunately, the plane she had been waiting for finally showed up at this moment, saving Emilia from her partner\'s \'scolding\'.
As the airport was temporarily closed to the public, and her little girlfriends arrived in a private jet as well, Emilia didn\'t have to worry much about sifting through the crowd as she threw herself at Noelle before she had even finished stepping down the airstair.
The gray-haired girl rolled her eyes as she held the little beauty under the envious and admiring eyes of her subordinates, and made way for the others to exit as well.
As expected, the minx of a princess quickly disentangled from her within moments, and threw herself at the two younger girls one after another while screaming in delight, though she was noticeably more gentle with Crystal.
Of course, Noelle knew that the blonde girl naturally couldn\'t handle the same level of \'impact\' as Dixie and herself, but it didn\'t stop her from rolling her eyes. "Now you know not to crash like a truck into someone the moment you meet them, huh?"
Emilia immediately turned to her with a pout. "Hey, who\'re you comparing to a truck?!"
Crystal giggled. "Alright, don\'t bicker, you two. Why don\'t we relax a little first, and then talk?"
Of course, it wasn\'t that she was really tired. In fact, meeting her girlfriend after such a long time, it wouldn\'t be an exaggeration to say that Crystal felt like there were more sexual stimulants running through her veins than actual blood, but with her ability, there were naturally things she could feel that others couldn\'t.
For example, although they seemed normal and respectful at a glance, the subordinates who had followed Emilia were about ready to throw up blood at any moment!
Having been with her for so long, they had never seen the princess being so intimate with anyone!
Although it was easy to get her to smile, being able to enter her embrace was only a distant dream, even in their wildest fantasies.
When had they ever seen the princess being so intimate with someone before?!
Just being able to get look at them differently for a while was already enough to send many to cloud nine for weeks, but here were not one, not two, but three people who could enjoy a completely different level of privilege!
When the princess looked at them, it was as if there were little sparks of delight just twinkling in her eyes, and it was obvious even from a distance. Compared to that... the impact they had was really not worth mentioning.
Even if they knew that she treated some people differently already, seeing it with their own eyes was still enough to cause them to feel a little wronged.
This was especially so for the woman at the very front, who kept clutching her tablet so hard that Crystal was sure the screen must have shattered to pieces already.
As Emilia had shared certain details with her for \'consultation\' while chatting before, the blonde heroine recognized the woman as the leader of the northern province\'s rebel group before Emilia took her crown, and she couldn\'t help but hum in thought.
\'For a woman past forty… she\'s remarkably well maintained.\'
Of course, for this woman to have thoughts about her princess… Crystal still felt like it was just \'old cow trying to chew young grass\'.
