"As you say." I nod, indicating to continue.
"First of all, I want to apologize for the way that my country has behaved towards you." Hanako said and bowed to me, "We are sorry, Mr. Tax."
I signal her to stop, "Please, Princess. Don't stoop yourself like that. I didn't want anything like that coming here."
That is what I say, but I believed otherwise.
'Yeah, bitch. Bow down to your new overlord.'
Unfortunately, she listened to my words quite fast.
"You are a generous man, Mr. Tax. Anyone else would have made me bowed longer."
'And any other genuinely apologetic person would have bowed longer.'
I smile outside, "The fact someone of your standing is even thinking of such, is good enough for me. Though it should be me who does that, since I took apart quite an economic source from you."
