Charlie shrugged helplessly before he took the cheque out of his pocket and handed it over to Elaine. “Mom, here’s the cheque.”

Elaine took the cheque excitedly, and filled with joy, she ran directly to the registration counter.

When Charlie saw the anxious and excited expression on Elaine’s face, he knew that Elaine was planning to keep the balance of the money. He sighed before he headed back to the ward.

After Charlie had arrived at the ward, Claire asked out of curiosity, “Did my mom mana

Before today, Rob wouldn't even dare dream that Julien would invite him to dinner.With how tense things were between Julien and Rob's grandfather, and Harrison eventually naming Julien as his heir, Rob's grandfather kept trying to make peace.But forget dinner—Julien wouldn't even answer his own brother's calls!That was why Rob was so mystified that a kid like him would be invited to dinner by someone this high up in the family. It was just bizarre no matter how one tried to frame it!And amongst his generation, Rob was the most self-aware even though he was not the most successful. There was just nothing about him that stood out, except the halo effect from the Rothschild name. That was why he knew too well that he just wasn't important enough for Julian to take an interest in him.But even if he couldn't guess the reason, Julien extended an invitation, and he definitely couldn't refuse.After all, Julien was the heir apparent—someone like Rob couldn't afford to miss the opp

However, Rob's girlfriend—Rachel Getty—was an outlier.Forget jumping him! The furthest they had gone this far was hugging and holding hands, as she refused to even kiss!Rob initially thought she was just playing hard to get, until he had a private investigator dig into her.The PI certainly went to great lengths too, investigating all of Rachel's records since kindergarten, along with her social circle history since grade school. To everyone's shock, she was simply that chaste and disciplined even as a child. Not only did she excel in all her academic studies, she was also athletic, earning numerous accolades on every stage of her education. On top of that, she never had any romantic connections in the past twenty years, with all her acquaintances insisting she never once held hands with any boy.And when the PI submitted his findings, Rob was utterly entrapped by Rachel's iron discipline and purity.In his mind, there was no way she would have kept up a facade this long even

Meanwhile, Rob was actually playing better thanks to his girlfriend's encouragement, and the practice match soon resumed at the coach's whistle.Smiling at Rob, his girlfriend said, "Run along, champ. Just remember to switch strategy and catch them off guard. I'll be watching and give you a sign when the time is right."Rob nodded emphatically, buoyed.He had long since learned that his girlfriend wasn't just an academic overachiever, but an insightful sports analyst especially in football. Her judgment and understanding could beat even college coaches, and her great advice was also another reason he was so in love with her.And as the second half began, Rob improved considerably.Even Charlie—who didn't know the rules—could see the clear advantage. Suddenly, Rob's team was far more agile along with his team, and they were bold enough to make plays.Through it all, Rob's girlfriend kept making sneaky hints with her hands.The hints helped, as Rob could now adjust his plays with

Charlie pressed, "Anything else?""Nothing much?" Julien said after some thought. "They are based in California, so I don't speak with them much.""And are there any specific requirements to marry a scion of your family's primary lineage?""Why, yes," Julien replied. "The main qualifications for marriage partners of Rothschilds from the main branch are naturally lineage, wealth, and influence. Moreover, their family history has to be flawless for a couple of centuries. But the further the Rothschild is from the line of succession; the requirements are somewhat relaxed."Charlie nodded. "So you and your immediate family members stand in the line of succession, but your brother Damian does not?""Of course!" Julien quickly replied. "I have yet to succeed my father, but when I do, Damian's lineage will be reduced to a collateral family despite still bearing the Rothschild name. It's like when my own heir succeeds me, while my other children are disenfranchised. Charlie then asked,

With Fleur topping the power hierarchy of the Qing Eliminating Society, the Four Earls and the Three Elders were next to her in strength and authority. However, it was the Scholars that really gave Charlie the creeps.Just like the Transition, Scholars were a doctrine that was at once radical and despicable.With the Transition, the dead soldiers and the armed cavalry guards were separated from their families. Their families would be executed if any of them tried to escape, so it was a threat which almost completely snuffed out any possibility of insubordination.As for the Scholars, they were spies, planted across the world to infiltrate all forms of elite organizations and lineages.Charlie's aunt and uncle from his mother's side were themselves Scholars' victims, and Keith Acker almost got killed because of them.That was just how cunning the Scholar conspiracy was—there was no way to guard against it. After all, they were sacrificing the Scholar's childhood and youth all to

The girl then beamed as she spoke in a clipped accent, "That was well-played, Bob. Though switching tactics earlier in another similar situation would be even more ideal."Bob nodded and smiled at her. "You're right. That's exactly what I think the biggest problem is."The girl patted her back in turn, assuring her, "It's fine—you've already done very well, and you've been improving every day. I'm sure you'll defeat them soon enough. And I believe that, because you're the best!"The quarterback looked at the girl with initial joy, his eyes glowing for a moment.But that glow soon faded as he chuckled self-deprecatingly and sighed, "Everyone says I'm the best, but I know most people say that because I'm a Rothschild. If it weren't for that, I probably wouldn't have any virtue that set me apart here in Stanford." Hearing him, Charlie frowned—Rothschild?The kid was a Rothschild? Why hadn't Julien mentioned him?Even as Charlie pondered, the girl with Bob beamed, "Please, Rob. You
