Race Against Time

After four hours of arduous negotiations, the negotiations broke down at ten o'clock in the evening. Although Jeanne had tried her best to delay the time, she still failed.

Judas had already noticed that Jeanne was stalling for time, but for General Armstrong's sake, he still gave Jeanne enough face.

After spending a full four hours with Jeanne, and Jeanne having nothing more to say, he got up and said with a smile, "It's very late, Miss. You should go back and rest early." 

"Lieutenant General should also go to rest early. You have come a long way, I'm sure it's hard on you," Jeanne said. 

"Don't worry, Miss. I'm a short sleeper, and there are still many things waiting for me to deal with. I can't sleep well if it's not finished yet." 

Frode, who had been quiet all the time, finally stood up and spoke to Jeanne.

"If Escarte has something to do, just let him go, Miss Jeanne. Come with me, I have something to ask you."
