  The trio's faces stiffened, but soon they nodded and replied, "Yes, Ms. Getty."Getting into her room and locking the door, Rachel whipped out her phone and called her mother Wallis, who was waiting anxiously back home in Miami.Wallis had already informed the Left Military Governorate before Rachel met Julien, and they were thrilled. They naturally understood that Rob was insignificant to the Rothschilds but weren't giving up yet—if anything, that last name carried considerable weight on this side of the world. Even just having Rachel marry him would be a merit noted by Fleur herself.And now, they had Julien too—if they could really make things work with Julien, that was a major accomplishment under the belt of the Left Military Governorate.That was why the Left Military Governorate was keen to know all the details of Rachel's meeting with Julien, including why Julien had sought out Rob and what they had talked about.Since Rachel and Rob confirmed they were dating, Left Mili

  Even now, Rachel was still convinced that she would have to marry Rob no matter what.That was why she couldn't accept her future husband staying as a nobody in the Rothschild family.Before, the kid wouldn't even have a chance to glimpse the hierarchy of his extended family—the most he could do was become the head of his collateral family.But now, Rob had basically found providence in Julien, who could improve her odds of marrying Rob. And that mysterious Mr. Cooper whom Julien had bent backward to fawn over would be providence for her and her family too.Rob too understood profoundly at that moment that her girlfriend's political acumen far surpassed his, and that her explanations afforded him a clearer view of the many little things that governed his own life.Hence, he promptly pressed Rachel, "So you're saying I should try to keep in touch with my granduncle?""Of course," Rachel replied, nodding. "And not just stay in his good graces, but prove that you're loyal to him alo

  Rachel quickly told her, "Did you forget? Your granduncle told you not to run your mouth, or to discuss any details with your parents."However, Rob shook his head, his face serious. "That's what he said, but my parents are more family to me than he is. He's like my grandfather's brother…"Rachel shook her head, her face grim. "If that's your mindset, you'll become no different from your grandfather—eventually reduced to a collateral branch. And you most certainly won't have a chance to inherit much of anything."Rob was taken aback. "What? Why?""Because you don't know how to pick a side!" Rachel snapped sternly. "Whether you become the main beneficiary of your parents' inheritance isn't up to your parents, but your grandfather. First, your own father needs to be appointed as heir from amongst his siblings. And even if he is chosen, you still have to compete against your own siblings. One misstep, and it's game over!"Rob's expression stiffened and he asked gingerly, "W-Well, wha

  Unlike Beverly Hills or Bay Area's glamorous neighborhoods, the rich and the powerful of Miami dwelled on artificial islands lining the coastline. Such islands might not have bridges or roads, which meant the residents would move between home and the mainland by helicopter or yacht.And the Gettys reside in one of the most expensive islands where US property values peak, far beyond real estate in New York, Beverly Hills, or Hawaii.With their background in manufacturing industries, the Gettys were a sucker of appearances. Their mansion occupied a third of their island, even on an island composed of multiple mansions. The island itself was a mile from the coastline, and there was a villa by the beach that served as a transit point—residents usually parked their cars there and then headed to the island by helicopter or yacht.As Charlie arrived at the coastline and scouted the area, he decided that he would infiltrate the Gettys' island residence alone and wait for the Qing Eliminat

  Rachel's parents' side of the family shared the same precarious position as Rob's family did in the Rothschilds, with the possibility of becoming a collateral family before long. Still, with Rachel and Rob's relationship going public, Rachel's parents were growing in position in the wider family, with even the chance of claiming leadership.Rachel's mother might be a Scholar, but she was only human and had her own mind on things too.She wasn't just hoping that her own lineage would rise in importance within the Qing Eliminating Society, while her husband would gain further influence within the family. Her own position would naturally elevate in turn, which gave them a bigger say in things.And if they accomplished enough, Rachel's children might even be spared from the life of a Scholar.That was why when she was informed that Rachel would be having dinner with Julien, she immediately notified the Left Military Governorate and the Gettys.Esteban Griffin—the Left Military Gover

  Rachel really didn't expect Charlie to leave just like that, while her poor boyfriend was still in Oskiatown running errands for Julien.Her first thought was that it was hubris—as if Charlie clearly wasn't bothered that the Qing Eliminating Society could turn the tables on him.Still, she soon realized Charlie could afford to be arrogant when Julien was nothing more than Charlie's errand boy, let alone Rob, who was an insignificant Rothschild.For his part, Julien was used to Charlie's volatility, only asking, "You're really not staying for dinner? Rob's going to take a while, but we can get started without him."Charlie waved him off. "No, let's do this some other time. We'll be going to Harvard in a couple of days."Julien promptly smiled and nodded. "No problem. I'll be there."Charlie stood up and told him and Julien, "Take your time. Remember, Rachel—I need my window. You can leave when I reach Miami."Rachel naturally read Charlie's plan right away.The Left Military Go
