Suddenly, a fleet of luxury sedans arrived ahead of the three, accompanied by a convoy of military vehicles.
The convoy of luxurious cars came to a halt in front of Nathan.
The next moment, Nathan's gaze fell upon a stunning woman stepping out of the car. She was dressed in an exquisite court gown, and behind her stood a formidable group of Wallera soldiers.
The stunning lady, adorned in the palace dress, was none other than the reigning Queen of Wallera, Dido.
It was undeniable that clothes have a significant impact on one's appearance. Dido, who was once known as the Shadow Widow, exuded maturity and enchantment with her choice of attire back then.
However, now that she had reclaimed her rightful position, wearing the dignified court gown, Dido had shed some of the flirtatiousness she once possessed and instead radiated a sense of solemnity.
However, what added to Nathan's astonishment even more was the presence of many soldiers from Wallera standing behind Dido, who were actually from Eurasia. Among them were retired North soldiers, his former subordinates.
Dido approached Nathan and called out to him with enthusiasm, “Mr. Cross!”
The soldiers behind her also saluted in unison towards Nathan, saying, “Greetings, Mr. Cross!”
Nathan smiled and greeted, “Hello, Queen Dido, hello everyone.”
Dido laughed and expressed, “I was already in bed when I received news of your sudden arrival. I couldn't contain my excitement. I hurriedly got ready and came out to meet you. I didn't even stop to put on some makeup. Please forgive me if I appear a bit disheveled, Mr. Cross.”
Upon hearing this, Nathan instinctively observed Dido carefully.
He noticed that Dido appeared composed and well-groomed, not showing any signs of dishevelment or lack of makeup.
She was clearly dressed meticulously, emanating an elegant aura that only heightened her charm. She was a beauty who was beyond compare.
Nathan chuckled lightly and said, “You're joking, Your Majesty!”
With a warm smile, Dido graciously extended an invitation for Nathan to join her in the car. “Mr. Cross, let's proceed to the palace. We can have a discussion there.”
Unable to resist Dido's infectious enthusiasm, Nathan willingly stepped into her vehicle.
Upon observing the scene, Colin and Thomas, along with others, displayed varying expressions on their faces.
In a low voice, Thomas whispered to Colin, “Colin, Queen Dido is usually aloof toward men. Why is she so enthusiastic when she sees Mr. Cross? The way she looks at him is clearly different.”
