Rebirth of the Prime Dragon Master

Chapter 90 A Deal Was Made

Everyone in the Grand Holy Hall was surprised by what Rocky had said. They all then contested for a

closer look at Shirley. What happened next amused all of them.

"I will kill you..." Feeling that all eyes were glued to her, Shirley immediately flushed with anger. All she

could think about after was how she would kill Rocky. The reason why she wore her loose clothes was

because she didn't like being girly. But now, she dressed more like an ordinary girl.

"Basil, you don't have to be so rude," The emperor of the Holy Dragon Empire signaled Rocky to stop.

"Behave yourself, Shirley. His Royal Highness was only playing a joke with you," Bryant reproached

Shirley. In the Grand Holy Hall, everyone must always show respect to the emperor.

Shirley rolled her eyes at Rocky while in response, Rocky shrugged his shoulders and deliberately

surveyed her for a while. Shirley's insides were boiling with rage but she knew she couldn't do anything

about it.

"General Bryant should already know about the matter of arranged marriage, right?" The emperor was

certain that Bryant had already been informed about it. He was asking to remind Bryant.

"Yes, I have been told about this matter. The Ximen Clan is deeply indebted to the royalty for all those

years." Bryant responded quickly and submissively.

"So it means that…" The emperor stared at Bryant as he awaited his confirmation.

"I totally agree. Being handsome and fused with the Holy Dragon Bead, His Royal Highness will

definitely become the new foundation of the royal family. It's truly fortunate for Shirley to have such a

royal marriage," Bryant replied in an unusually sedate tone.

"I will dump him the moment we get married." Although Bryant had already agreed on the arranged

royal marriage, Shirley still couldn't suppress her anger and talked back without thinking.

At that exact moment, everyone was astounded by Shirley's words. This was an arranged royal

marriage and should never be the same as a common one. Even if the female gets relieved from the

marriage appointment at her own request, she would have to vow never to remarry. A royal marriage

was a big thing.

Shirley immediately realized that she created a dilemma for herself as she tried to humiliate Rocky in

front of the public.

"Of course you can do that. I don't like you as well, you silly girl." Rocky was happy about what she

said and he would be the happiest man on earth if she wanted to dump him because he would no

longer be a puppet used in an attempt to control the Ximen Clan. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

"Shirley!" Bryant flared up in anger. He couldn't stay calm knowing this could end up a disaster to the

whole clan if she wasn't careful.

Shirley realized that what she said was wrong and began to regret. She also knew what she said could

place the entire Ximen Clan in a dangerous situation.

All of a sudden, the energy in the Hall grew a bit awkward because of Shirley's dispute with Rocky.

"I'm sure Basil and Shirley would be a perfect match and I am sure the couple will eventually build up

their intimacy through this special fight." Lena cut to broke the terrifying silence. The weird energy then

become much softer. But her eyes showed a little implicit sorrow.

"That's correct, Your Royal Highness. My granddaughter has been pampered since she was born

which means she never learns how to express herself properly. The truth is she was very excited about

meeting His Majesty on her way here. She was just too nervous to speak appropriately. Please forgive

her, Your Majesty and Your Royal Highness." Bryant followed Lena and nodded at her gratefully. It was

because of her interruption that he was able to avoid conflict. Otherwise, it would've been a huge

trouble if they irritated the emperor.

"Shirley is still a little girl. Marriage is certainly stressful for her to think about. So it's natural that she's

having trouble handling all this pressure. I can relate to it. And I totally understand the General's

sentiments." The emperor peacefully echoed Bryant and had no intentions of blaming Shirley. Even

though the emperor perceived that Shirley truly despised Basil, he didn't care about it that much

because the most important thing was to settle the marriage with the Ximen Clan. Only by doing this

could he constrain their power logically and all his worries would be gone.

Rocky kept himself seated as he listened to what his father was saying. If it wasn't for what Lena told

him, he would have already burst out in anger.

"We greatly appreciate Your Majesty's kindness. Shirley, do not waste His Majesty's time and

apologize." Bryant swiftly looked at Shirley, hinting her to apologize to the emperor.

"I am still young and what I said was purely arrogant nonsense. I hope you could forgive me, Your

Majesty." Reluctant as she was, Shirley still had to offer her apologies to the emperor.

"Since General Bryant has already agreed to the marriage deal, I will order my people to prepare the

marriage as soon as possible. Today was a good day, so let Basil and Shirley sign the royal marriage

deal now." Bryant's oral agreement was not enough to guarantee the deal so the emperor started to

carry out his backup plan. If he got Bryant to sign the deal, both sides would be closely tied together

and their relationship would be strengthened even more. Another good day would be picked for the

wedding to take place, and then it will all be settled.

Bryant was not surprised at all because he knew exactly what kind of person the emperor was. The

emperor would never hesitate to go for what he wants especially regarding royal matters.

"This is the best arrangement, Your Majesty." Bryant delivered a tactful response.

The emperor nodded with satisfaction on his face as an acknowledgement of Bryant's stance. Soon,

two maids came in with the royal marriage deal and a red pen. They went towards Basil and Shirley.

Seeing the deal was approaching him, Rocky turned to face Lena who had been gazing at him. They

kept their silence for a while until Lena nodded in agreement. Rocky sighed quietly and then turned to

face Shirley. Helplessly, he grabbed the pen and wrote his name on the deal without any hesitation.
