Margaret peeked at the numbers. They were not good. Not to mention, Kinshearth still owed money to several of their trading partners. They even borrowed money from the Galatix Bank, not to mention the high-interest rates that were not paid off.
Laina put down the document and rubbed her temples, "So including the debts we owe for various expenses, we are deep in debt?"
Nitser gulped, "Yes, your highness. I… I have told the Royal Chancellor Lucinda, Grand General Tobias, multiple times…"
She raised her hand and stopped the Finance Minister from speaking. Her head was spinning from all these numbers, it felt as if she had a splitting headache. Looking over to the side, she could see the liquor cabinet.
