Mistaken Match Marrying the Enigmatic CEO

Love at 2190 Chapter 2190 It's A Big Deal Finished "Mr. Hale, us Shoiyans have always been meticulous in our work. This is, no doubt, the right speech!" Adrian deliberately brushed aside Ethan's humor, scaling off any room for retreat. He pressed forward, his tone resolute. "I hope you will be like your predecessor and acknowledge this fact!" Given the solemnity of the occasion, the Chanacans cursed inwardly. Bullshit! Yet, no one dared to speak out.

This was a formal diplomatic exchange, with cameras rolling and media recording every moment. Interruptions were forbidden.

Compared to the dark and brooding expressions on the Chanaeans, the Shoiyans wore smug smiles, brimming with confidence.

They knew Ethan had served as Artemis deputy and belonged to the sfaction. Ethan's reputation for appeasement and strategic patience had led many to see him as weak and accommodating.

Based on this assumption, they believed Ethan would be even easier to handle.

Yet, he responded with a measured voice. “Mr. Kashimoto, either you are mistaken, or your record keepers have made an error. None of our former leaders, including my predecessor, has ever acknowledged such a claim.” "Birdsong Island has always been Chanaea's territory since ancient times. I think you should review your records carefully to avoid making statements that invite ridicule!" Hidden among the observers, Emmanuel was admiring Ethan's sharp wit and calm demeanor.

Though gentle in tone, his words were far from weak.

It was Chanaea's turn to smile.

But the Shoiyans were unlike the reserved Chanaeans. They immediately resorted to crude insults, shouting something incomprehensible but clearly derogatory.

The Chanaeans seethed with anger at such rudeness.

This is a solemn occasion! Chanaea, known as a nation of etiquette and propriety, had never faced such an outrageous incident.

But for the Shoiyans, this was nothing new. Their diplomats had brawled with foreign counterparts in past meetings that caused bloodsheds in conferences.

Adrian remained silent.

Instead, his deputy, Willow, stepped forward. "Mr. Hale, our leader does not make mistakes, nor do our records. Birdsong Island belongs to Shoiya. This is the foundation of our relationship. Should you refuse to recognize this, our forces in the southeastern seas may be forced to act." A threat! How dare the Shoiyans threaten us on our land! 1/3 09:31 Sat Jan 25 G Chapter 2190 It's A Big Deal However, the Chanacans were well-disciplined. Unlike their Shoiya counterparts, they maintained composure despite the provocation.

Ethan remained composed. "Ms. Willow, do your words represent Shoiya?" "Of course!" Willow replied proudly. noveldrama

Adrian continued to stay silent.

Finished The man standing behind Willow smirked and sneered, "You should recognize your position and strength. Misjudging the situation will cost you dearly when conflict breaks out." "That's right!" another man chimed in. "Your so-called martial arts masters were already crushed by Shoiya's Martial Saint. If war comes, your army will crumble after decades of peace. You'll have no one to blbut yourselves!" Their taunts pushed the tension to its breaking point.

Emmanuel quickly noticed that these two men were likely bodyguards or low-level lackeys. Yet, they dared to act so brazenly in this setting.

Adrian's silence made it clear. This chaos was orchestrated, aimed at exploiting Ethan's reputation as a peace- seeker.

However, Ethan gave Wendy, a subtle look.

It was a small gesture, unnoticed by most, but Emmanuel caught it instantly.

Wendy understood instantly. With two assistants, she stepped forward. "Gentlemen, this is a diplomatic forum for national leaders. As you are not representatives, I must ask you to refrain from disrupting the proceedings." "Haha. Distrupting?" The two men deliberately twisted her words. “We're just stating facts. Everyone knows that Chanaea's martial arts world has been ravaged by just one person from our Shoiya!" "Exactly!" Another man sneered. “When war breaks out, your undisciplined army will fall apart!" "You arrogant pukes? Get out of here!" One of Wendy's assistants finally lost his temper. Using his position as protocol officer, he stepped forward, attempting to expel the men.

But before he could act, the Shoiyan struck first.

"Smack!" A heavy blow sent the men crashing to the floor. The impact echoed through the hall, silencing everyone. This wasn't a street fight. This was the national assembly hall of Chanaea.

Yet, violence had erupted.

2/3 09:31 It's A Big Deal Finished "Ha! Did everyone see that? This is what happens when you challenge Shoiyans!" The two men laughed, unrepentant.

Adrian's silence spoke volumes-he condoned their actions.

"D*mn it. You've crossed the line!" Wendy called for more security to restore order.

All eyes turned to Ethan.

As the highest-ranking official present, he would need make the final call.

Sofficials smirked, expecting Ethan to offer his usual speech about peace and harmony, defusing the E situation without consequences. But Ethan surprised them. He said nothing while letting Wendy's men proceed with the fight.

Yet the Shoiyans proved formidable fighters. With weapons Chanaea's security to subdue them. More guards fell to the floor. The media reporters were stunned. Never in their careers had they witnessed such chaos at a diplomatic event.

Thankfully, this wasn't being Wo the broadcast live. Had the public seen this, the outrage would have erupted across Chanaea. Albin was prepared to intervene as he recognized the calculated provocation.

But just as he was about to make his move, a hand rested on his shoulder from behind.
