Chapter 770 Two Trillion Dollars as Compensation
Chapter 770 Two Trillion Dollars as Compensation
In Riverside Villa, Willow began to lecture Caspian.
"Hubby, what's wrong with you? Mr. Massey is still your biological father. You can't really lay hands on
him."
"I can't forgive him for what he has done in the past," Caspian said coldly, not revealing the truth of the
matter to Willow.
"Didn't you see the affection between Mom and Mr. Massey just now? They both deeply love each
other. You can't just let Mom be alone. She'll need to have a companion," Willow said.
Caspian naturally saw that his mother cared a lot about Logan.
"Don't simply draw conclusions. The Massey family has never treated my mom well. She definitely
won't go back to them," Caspian said impatiently. All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.
Hearing that, Willow stomped her foot in anger, not wanting to deal with Caspian anymore.
…
Meanwhile, in the King's residence, the Andrews family looked worried. They had been negotiating with
Filren for a long time, but the result was still unsatisfactory.
Zane had returned to Dhord City with the envoy, while the envoy from Filren had also returned.
The negotiations ultimately ended in failure.
"Zane, isn't Manny supposed to be a specialist in diplomacy? Why didn't his intervention work?" Kelvin
asked.
"Filren won't budge. It's useless no matter what we send. Filren knows that we don't dare to declare
war. So, they won't back down," Zane sighed and said.
Jerry was now in regret. He had made friendly gestures toward Filren to ensure Diatoran's stability, but
it resulted in the current situation.
"Why don't we just declare war? Caspian has struck Filren's capital before. They're probably weakened
now," Zane said angrily.
"We don't have the capital to fight them. Are you going to the frontlines?" Jerry asked, displeased.
"We still have four other War Gods, don't we? They can also join the battle," Zane suggested.
He was only good at wandering around in the streets. How would he dare to lead troops into battles?
"Warfare requires morale among the soldiers. Caspian has been dismissed, and many soldiers are
dissatisfied.
"If Filren starts a war, other countries will definitely not sit idly by. What if they also attack Diatoran?
Then, we'll be in a passive defense," Jerry analyzed.
He wasn't afraid of fighting. Instead, he feared that other countries besides Filren would intervene.
Previously, Diatoran was attacked from all sides, but Caspian turned the tide of the battle.
"Many people want Caspian to return to his position. Once a war breaks out, these voices will only
grow louder."
Jerry knew that once they were at war, people would remember the invincible Diatoranian God of War.
More citizens would step forward to request Caspian's return.
"Public opinion is overwhelmingly in favor of Caspian now. Why don't we restore his title as the
Diatoranian God of War first? We can deal with him once the situation stabilizes.
"After all, we can control the king. We can deal with Caspian however we want," Kelvin proposed.
"No way! We've worked tirelessly to come to this point. Allowing Caspian to reclaim his title would be
like releasing a dragon from the dungeon. This plan is out of the question," Jerry retorted firmly.
"Nowadays, everyone hopes for Caspian's reinstatement because they believe he can lead us to
victory. If Caspian fails, they won't have much to say," Zane said.
Jerry's expression brightened at those words. The current public support for Caspian was due to the
belief that he could defeat Filren.
But if Caspian were to be killed, his supporters would surely not say anything anymore. The priority
was to stabilize the people and then resume negotiations.
Just then, an intelligence officer came to Jerry and reported, "Mr. Andrews, there's news from
Southlake City.
"Caspian actually stabbed his father, Logan, with a dagger! If it weren't for the butler of the Massey
family intervening, Logan would probably be dead."
With that, the Andrews family applauded.
"That's great! I didn't expect Caspian's temper to be so bad. He can actually do something so
disgraceful.
"Dad, it's all thanks to you. It seems that our goal has been achieved," Zane exclaimed excitedly.
"I've always told you. Every move must be carefully considered. Without the protection of the Massey
family, Caspian will only end up dead."
After Jerry finished speaking, he began drafting a statement.
"During his military service, Caspian disobeyed Balthazar's orders and is now attempting patricide.
Diatoran will never employ such disloyal and ungrateful individuals."
Jerry then woke up Balthazar, who groggily copied the statement and stamped it with his private seal.
"Contact the media and spread this news," Jerry ordered.
"Yes, sir!" his subordinate responded promptly.
"Kelvin, gather the experts of Skyarch Palace and find an opportunity to assassinate Caspian. No one
will dare ask us to declare war then.
"Zane, reach out to some media editors. Ask them to write more articles criticizing Caspian. Spread
negative publicity."
"Dispatch Manny to continue negotiations with Filren. Say that we agree to offer a compensation of two
trillion dollars."
…
In the King of Filren's residence, Byron, who had been defeated by Caspian, now sat arrogantly on the
throne. He looked down at the Diatoranian envoy.
"Two trillion dollars. It must be paid off within five years, and we also want the three cities in West
Aridlands," Byron said arrogantly.
"Your Majesty, we've already made concessions. We hope you can also make some compromises.
Otherwise, we'll once again be in a stalemate," Manny said seriously.
Jerry had made a major concession by compensating Filren with two trillion dollars. That was a large
sum of money.
Manny felt a sense of humiliation in coming to negotiate.
"Does he really think he's the invincible Diatoranian God of War? Do you people in Diatoran really think
that Filren is so weak?" Byron said with a cold expression.
