Capítulo 430: Hero?

The woman waited for the prince to shut up before speaking. "We did plan on negotiating first, your highness," she said. "We were ready to comply with their demands to save you."

"What?" the prince finally calmed a little. "You were ready to comply?" 

"Yes," she said. "We had even brought the gems the terrorists demanded to rescue you."

"What?" the prince's eyes perked up. "You have the gems? Show me."

"Unfortunately I can't, your highness. Senior Tim has the gems and he's outside of the zoo. You can ask him yourself later," Fiona said.

"You didn't bring them here? Were you not planning to give it to them in the first place?" the prince asked.

"We were planning to start with the negotiations first, your highness, but they never came out to negotiate anything. After noticing something was wrong, I sneaked in to see what was going on along with Jamir."
