"I will restore the trees by winter," Rael stated, narrowing his eyes. "However, I want you to know one thing..."
Rael leaned in, flashing a cold look. "If we're going to be changing our terms and agreements every time there's an inconvenience, then I'm afraid this won't work. You have already shown what needed to be shown, so once the trees are restored, we will revise the contract once more."
He paused, giving Halemire a moment to digest the information before continuing.
"The price might go up, and if you see a few extra clauses added to the embassy part, do not be surprised," Rael added, standing up and shooting him one last nod.
But that was also when Halemire stood up, a frown on his face.
"Do you expect me to believe you have what it takes to restore a several-hundred-kilometer forest within a month?" he asked plainly.
"Halemire, I am not accepting your agreement," Rael stated flatly. "We will be going by the same agreement that we signed last time."
