Chapter 177: PEOPLE FROM HOLY KINGDOM WAS HERE (2)
"So, you are saying, you wanted to compensate me with marriage alliance between two babies?" Zander didn’t know whether he wanted to laugh or insult these imbeciles before his eyes.
On the other hand, Elder Rio looked calm. There was no shred of embarrassment at all when he made the proposal.
He gestured to a woman to step forward, she was a wet nurse with a baby in her arms. A little girl, who was no older than a year old.
"This is Lady Gabriel’s granddaughter. She will be the future leader of the Holy Kingdom."
"How many years of future we are talking about?" Zander scoffed disdainfully. This was something that he didn’t expect at all.
Meanwhile, king Rowan was sitting next to him, he looked amused with this whole situation. He wished they brought someone to ask for Zaya’s hand instead, but from what he learned about Holy Kingdom, they didn’t have a suitable candidate to be married of for Zaya, instead they stoop so low by proposing a marriage alliance between the baby.
Elder Rio brushed off Zander offhanded comment and then continued to introduce the baby girl, who looked confused. "Her name is Jasmine. She will stay here with her wet nurse until she came to age and is ready for the true ceremony."
"How do you think this compensate the death of my gamma, elder Rio? By giving a baby? Are you trying to insult me here?"
The elder shook his head. His voice was very polite when he spoke. "Of course not, my king. There is no way I will insult you. We offered you the future leader of the Holy Kingdom as a good gesture for a better future between the two kingdoms."
