After Nathan, Penny and Kylie left the hotel, they made their way to the White House.
It was the First Lady's car he was driving after all. Not only did he crash it but someone had smashed it as well.
Therefore, even though the car wasn't seriously damaged, he still owed her an apology.
In addition, it was only appropriate for Nathan and his wife to visit the First Lady after coming to Brimmopolis.
Camilla was dressed in a green embroidered robe as she welcomed both Nathan and his wife.
Upon knowing that her car was damaged under Nathan's care, she wasn't angry at all but responded with a smile instead. “Don't worry. It's
just a car, just make sure Ms. Smith is fine.”
She knew that Hansel had been wanting to arrange for Nathan to join the Cabinet before retiring from his position.
She was also clear that Nathan wouldn't leave Brimmopolis anytime soon. Therefore, it was her intention for Nathan to interact more with the nobles and the elites of the city.
Even though Nathan was a General, he was promoted too fast and rarely communicated with the elites in Brimmopolis because he had been guarding the North all these time. Many people in Brimmopolis might have heard of the General of the North but no one knew him personally.
Camilla smiled while saying to Nathan, “You and Penny have arrived at the right time. Foreign Minister of Xyperia, Leigh will be visiting Eurasia with his men and we'll be hosting a massive reception for them. By that time, many elites will be attending as well, the both of you are welcomed to join.”
Nathan couldn't help but feel a little surprised to hear that the Foreign Minister of Xyperia would be visiting.
It was said that Eurasians were descendants of dragons while Xyperians were descendants of elephants.
Both countries were ancient civilizations with a very old and long history.
Throughout the years, Xyperia was at an inferior standing compared to Eurasia and they had always acknowledged Eurasia's superiority with respect.
However, Xyperia grew tired of it and wanted to outshine Eurasia by competing with them all the
time.
As a result, a great war broke out between Xyperia and Eurasia, and Xyperia was eventually defeated very badly.
After Eurasia won the battle, they did not parade their victory but maintain the decency and composure of a great nation instead.
However, Xyperia being the losing party, was unwilling to submit. Claiming that the North of Eurasia belonged to them, they tried to invade the nation repeatedly.
Furthermore, Xyperia had always compared their ancestry and wanted to prove that they were the stronger party.
