Chapter 1000: Chapter 1000: Hanging by a Thread (4)

The Presidential Palace, the scene of the press conference.

Gan Yuan stood at the podium, laying out all the truths.

“…Barton is nothing but an ambitious figure. For his selfish desires, he recklessly disregards the consequences of his actions. For thousands of years, the Gula Family has been protecting this land, ensuring that every person here lives in peace and prosperity. This is the mission of the Gula Family. For me, it’s no exception. We will not allow anyone to compromise the integrity of the nation, nor will we compromise with any evil forces.” Gan Yuan solemnly raised her right hand, “Now, I swear by the honor of the Gula Family…”

She tightened her right hand into a fist, her dark eyes sharply fixed on the direction of the camera.

On the camera, her exquisite face appeared, her pair of bright black eyes as resolute as that of King Gula in the past.

Outside the venue, countless screens displayed her face.

The television in front of the sofa, the computer on the desk, the big screen on the Cross Street Building… all loudspeakers echoed her voice.

“This country is a whole; I will not allow anyone to undermine its integrity. I have never compromised, the Gula Family has never compromised, and neither will our nation, nor our people!”

Compared to previous presidents, Gan Yuan’s stance was notably firm.

This time, her passionate and forceful speech made the reporters present also feel their blood boil.

F Country had been silent for too long. Since the fall of the Gula Dynasty, its international status had drastically declined, a situation that no true patriots of this country wished to see.

However, presidents in the past had failed to reverse this trend. In this young woman, they seemed to see the charisma of that once-dominant family again.

Finally, Gan Yuan raised her right hand, pointing directly at the camera.

“Barton, I now order you, in the capacity of Her Highness the Princess, to immediately release the President, hand over control of the Northwest, and apologize to my people, or… face the consequences!”

As her speech concluded, the venue erupted in applause.

Outside, viewers sitting on sofas, white-collar workers in office chairs, young students passing by on the street… everyone was clenching their fists in excitement.

This country had been weak for too long; it was time to be strong!

Outside the operating room.

Huangfu Jue watched the young girl’s determined face on the phone screen, his lips tight, a slight smile on his lips.

“Mommy is so cool!”

Beside him, Gan Tang also displayed an excited expression on his face.

Behind the father and son, the butler, Jessica, a few bodyguards… all were watching the small phone screen.

The butler had a look of satisfaction, and Jessica was filled with excitement.

At this moment, her feelings were even more intense than when she learned Gan Yuan was His Highness. Recalling Moses’ earlier words to her, Jessica turned to look in the direction of the operating room door.

Only now did she truly understand the meaning of Moses’ words — “Following her is the greatest honor of your life.”

This point, Jessica deeply agreed with.

Not because this woman had such a noble lineage, not because she might lead the country in the future, but because in her, Jessica saw something, something worthy of her admiration.

If, prior to this, her loyalty to Gan Yuan was due to Moses’ request, now, everything was quietly changing.
