Lunch with the royals (Part 2)

Ptolomy was feeling incensed.

He didn't much care when Alexander disrespected him in private, as he knew he had no army, no money, and few loyal followers and thus was utterly dependent on the mercenaries and Cantagenans for protection.

But Alexander so blatantly insulting him, the king, right in front of his family finally managed to form a frown on the middle-aged's man forehead.

"Alexander, I would appreciate it if you could give our family some private time," Ptolomy asked Alexander, though the hard, frosty voice he said it with made it sound more like a command.

"Hehe," But Alexander only chuckled and said, "Your Majesty, I remember you promising me making me your most trusted general if I could get you Adhan. If that offer stands then it is natural our families should get to know each other."

After that, Alexander let out a sly smile and asked, "So, tell me, does your still offer stand?"
