CHAPTER 1503 WHAT ARE YOU UNHAPPY WITH
The next day, Nathan accompanied Penny to the International Pharmaceutics Economy Summit.
In the evening, Nathan and Penny brought Colin and Frida along to the Fuji Clubhouse to attend the emperor's banquet.
Fuji Clubhouse was the biggest and most expensive clubhouse in Kyoto. It was only opened to its members, which only consisted of wealthy and powerful figures of the country.
Even rich people who had no significant power and influence within the country could not have access.
Still in his tuxedo, Tanaka and a few subordinates came to welcome Nathan by the entrance.
"Haha, welcome to Fuji Clubhouse, Mr. and Mrs. Cross. His Royal Highness and Master Watanabe have been awaiting your arrival for a long time."
Nathan replied flatly, "Please lead the way.” "This way, please!” Tanaka gestured with a bow.
Nathan and Penny then followed him in.
Penny was anxious as she held onto Nathan tightly. "Hubby, you just castrated the royal prince of Japan, and yet they are being so polite to you. Don't you think there's something wrong?" Penny whispered softly.
Nathan merely smiled. "Well, let's go with the flow. Be rest assured as long as I'm here."
Penny hummed in reply. As long as Nathan is with me, I will not be afraid, even in the most dangerous parts of the world.
The interior design of the clubhouse was very resplendent and majestic, and the banquet hall was as huge as a football field.
Emperor Chongmei and the other royals had been awaiting them together with the close acquaintances of the Imperial House.
In fact, the hall was also filled with imperial guards, all clad in their bright formal attires and katanas. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.
Emperor Chongmei and the other royal guests put on a cordial smile as they welcomed Nathan.
However, the surrounding guards were resting their hands on their katanas as they glared at Nathan.
Oh, a carrot-and-stick approach it seems!
Tanaka introduced Nathan to the emperor, "This is His Royal Highness Emperor Chongmei of Japan. Please kneel and hail to His Royal Highness."
Emperor Chongmei eyed Nathan haughtily as he observed him intently.
The guests too threw shady gazes in Nathan's direction.
Nathan smiled. "I kneel to no one except for my parents."
His words enraged the Japanese, and they were ready to reprimand Nathan for his rudeness when Emperor Chongmei uttered, "Every nation has its own customs. No need to trouble Mr. Cross over that."
With that, the surrounding guests halted in their actions and resumed their politeness.
Emperor Chongmei turned to Nathan with a smile. "Mr. and Mrs. Cross, please take your seats."
Nathan and Penny sat down and the remaining guests returned to their seats as well.
Without further ado, Emperor Chongmei proclaimed, "I shall be frank then, Mr. and Mrs. Cross. I'm inviting you here today to discuss your injuring of my son and Master Watanabe's apprentice, and I would like to propose a peaceful solution to that."
Master Watanabe glanced at Nathan with his razor sharp gaze.
Nathan chuckled. "Your son harassed my wife repeatedly and even declared to kill me. I have been kind enough to spare his life and only taught him a lesson. What else are you unhappy about?"
The emperor's face darkened significantly. "Nathan Cross, do you think I'll let you go just like that after what you did to my son and Master Watanabe's apprentice? Fine, let me tell you this. Present 51 % of your company's shares to the Imperial House of Japan, and we'll call this over."
"Of course, to make sure you don't return empty-handed, I will give you ten of your nation's artefacts, including my favorite calligraphy, the 'Note of Distress and Indignation' by the Sage of Calligraphy, Wang Xizhi. I will announce to the public that you have offered us your company's shares in exchange for the artefacts.
How's that?"
