Chapter 454 Overshooting
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━With the White Deer\'s \'lifeline\' no longer in his hands, the president couldn\'t bring himself to care about \'irrelevant matters\' anymore. Even if he wanted nothing more than to tear these \'traitors\' apart limb from limb, he was well aware of just how important it was for him to not put the cart before the horse at this critical moment.
With how much of their economy depended on the White Deer, if possible, he must first reach a compromise with them to maintain the current \'arrangements\' somehow, or everything might come crashing down within weeks.
Once the situation was stabilized… it wouldn\'t be too late to make them pay for their treachery.
Going through the report in his hands, the president couldn\'t help but sigh in relief. "Fortunately, while cowards are usually quite clever, they\'re also very, very greedy."
As he expected, once he announced that the taxes levied on major corporations would be greatly reduced for the rest of his term, the White Deer really didn\'t dare to retreat and abandon all that \'free money\'.
Moreover, they even seemed to have mistaken his \'benevolent move\' as being oblivious to their \'treachery\', and even dared to make small moves right under his eyes.
He sneered. "Do they think I don\'t know they asked the academy to arrange for a transfer of students related to their little daughter?"
If not for him, not to mention doubling their previous year\'s donations, even if they multiplied it by ten times, it still wouldn\'t be enough for the academy to agree to such a thing.
The president smiled. "Arrange for independent counseling of all the students who apply for a transfer. Find those most suitable for our needs, and proceed with operation Blue Prion."
Before the man in front of him could leave, the president coughed. "Also, make sure that operation Black Tide remains on schedule. As they say... fool me once, shame on you, fool me twice, shame on me. Got it?"
The man nodded hurriedly before rushing away, leaving the president with a satisfied and expectant grin on his face. "Heh... they have no idea what\'s in store for them."

While the dark storms surged under the surface of the seemingly calm Oriana country, the rest of the world was still furiously debating over Emilia\'s \'radical\' move.
Although her \'rabid fans\' remained as loyal as ever, most others were still certain that it was only a matter of time before Emilia had to face reality.
As far as they were concerned, it was almost a given that not only would the Empire of Blue Dawn start collapsing soon, but the overall valuation of the White Deer Corporation would take a nosedive as well.
After all, it was no secret that the girl\'s family was heavily supporting her, both financially and through their specialized resources in various fields. Once the little experiment of their precious princess started showing its disastrous results, wasn\'t it only natural for them to share some of its backlash?
Even if they could somehow escape the hit to their reputation, how could the resources and wealth they had already squandered be so easy to recover?
Moreover, with the number of toes that the White Deer had stepped on recently just to spoil their precious little princess, it wouldn\'t be an exaggeration to say that their situation might turn dire the moment they started showing signs of bleeding.
After all, even if those who held grudges against the White Deer wouldn\'t dare to throw caution to the wind and pounce on them like sharks smelling blood, they would still be watching them like starving vultures, ready to pluck off any piece of meat that they could.

While Emilia usually enjoyed putting on a good show for everyone to marvel at, she was bound to disappoint the \'eagerly waiting\' enemies who wished to see her fail spectacularly this time.
After all, not only did she have Crystal, Dixie, and Noelle to assist her, but there was even more help already on the way!
Forget about failing, Emilia was more worried that she would overshoot her target too much, and attract too much envy from neighboring nations as a result.
Of course, even if such a thing happened, it would only mean she had to push her plans forward a little more. Instead of worrying about such minor matters, what she cared for more now was...
"Why isn\'t big sister\'s flight here already?"
Although this was the fifteenth time that she had been asked the same question, looking at the crimson-haired beauty\'s adorably scrunched up brows, Noelle couldn\'t muster up any annoyance or anger at all.
She could only sigh in defeat. "Like I said, it\'s not that strange for them to be delayed by a few minutes after going through that kind of turbulence, after all—!"
Her words were cut short when Emilia suddenly jumped with an excited yelp. "She\'s here! She\'s here!"
Knowing that the girl had exceptional hearing and sight, Noelle could only try her best to squint and spot the plane in the distance she knew it must be coming from.
Sadly, she still failed to see anything, so Noelle could only cough pretentiously. "See, didn\'t I tell you she\'ll be here soon?"
Fortunately, Emilia was too excited to pay attention to minor details, and plunged into the older girl\'s embrace with a smile. "Yes, thank you! I know they wouldn\'t let her come over so soon without your persuasion."
Noelle obviously didn\'t want to admit how proud and satisfied she felt with the younger girl snuggling into her nape, so she tried her best to appear cool and collected. "It\'s no big deal. Although I hate to admit it, Sam has really grown a lot as a businesswoman. Having her here during the initial phases of your empire\'s business establishment would be of great help."
Of course, the most important thing was that maybe Sam\'s arrival would finally allow Emilia to give up working almost twenty-four hours a day.
Even if she didn\'t \'need\' to sleep, watching their pampered princess work without care for day and night still caused their hearts to ache for her.
She even split Noelle and Alexandria\'s assistance into two shifts for maximum efficiency, and still kept working on her own while they rested.
At first, they were still relieved that the little beauty could easily be lured to bed using seduction, but it didn\'t take them long to realize that Emilia tended to slip away as soon as she had put them to sleep.
Whether it was Crystal, Dixie, or Noelle, none of them wanted her to continue torturing herself like this.
Unfortunately, with Emilia\'s ever-increasing proficiency in bed, it was simply impossible to resist sleeping if she was intent on satisfying them straight into dreamland, even if they took turns to seek her one after another.
Crystal even went so far as to ask Dixie to \'wake her up\' once she saw Emilia escape, but once she found the other girl similarly asleep the following day, they quickly realized how futile their attempt was.
Of course, they could always ask Emilia to \'stop\' directly, but knowing how much she cared for the success of her Blue Dawn Empire, none of them could really muster the courage to do so.
After all, the crimson-haired girl rarely ever showed so much passion for something, and it just didn\'t feel right for them to try to take it away from her.
Numerous arguments ensued in their group chat, and after much deliberation, Noelle finally made the call to have Sam move to the empire earlier.
The sis-con was naturally ecstatic that she wouldn\'t have to wait for the bunch from Emilia\'s school to fly over together, and could meet her sister earlier, so she immediately used some dirty tricks to convince Mr. White.
While she felt a little guilty when she thought of how she had lied to her father about having the urge to \'cheat\' on her little sister — who would surely be utterly devastated when she discovered it — because of being too \'pent up\', Samantha still felt that meeting Emilia sooner was well worth bearing all the shame and guilt.
As for how conflicted Mr. White must feel making such a decision or what price he paid to convince his wife… Sam naturally didn\'t dare to ask.
The moment her heels touched the tarmac, a soft and nimble figure crashed into her arms, taking her into an intimate embrace while squealing sweetly in excitement.
"Big sis! I missed you so much!"
Even though she had already been prepared, Sam still couldn\'t help but feel her eyes get slightly wet as she pecked the girl\'s soft cheek piously. "M-Me too, baby, me too…"
Emilia giggled in delight as she pointed at the exasperated-looking Noelle. "I\'m sure you must be tired after the long flight, so I prepared a special medicated bath~"
Going by the girl\'s flirtatiously fluttering eyelashes and the mischievous glint in her eyes, Sam could already tell that the bath must include \'special services\', and she couldn\'t help but feel her blood boil in excitement. "L-Let\'s go, then!"
Without waiting for Emilia\'s response, she directly lifted the gorgeous girl up in a princess carry, and rushed right past Noelle.
The gray-haired girl couldn\'t help but be dumbfounded.
Not to mention that Sam didn\'t even know which direction she had to head in after exiting the airport, did she really intend to just run all the way to her destination just like that?
"Has this girl become dumber while I wasn\'t there?!"
