Albert smiled and nodded. "Exactly. We're all friends here, Mr. Rothschild, and you have my number. Just call whenever you're coming again.""Yes! Definitely!" Julien nodded, smiling before he knew it.He didn't know why he felt surprised and touched to be called a friend by Albert, even overwhelmed.And Albert was supposed to be no more than Charlie's lackey—his wealth, position, and connections were barely a sliver of what Julien had!Hence, he stood up and raised his glass again, smiling at Albert, "You're right, Mr. Rhodes! We're all friends—let's drink to that!"Albert was surprised too, and he mused to himself that working for Charlie was truly granting all the boons possible!After all, they were talking about the motherfucking heir apparent of the Rothschild family here! If he told his old man when he visited his grave next week, the old-timer would probably leap out of his coffin just to snap at him for spouting bullshit…Seeing that Albert was just smiling without retu

Charlie simply smiled and didn't respond to Julien's question.After all, the reason Helena had managed to shorten the time needed to build the AI module from a couple of years to just a month was because she had offered Harrison the right to purchase half a Healing Pill for fifty billion USD.There was no question that it was the chief reason that motivated Harrison to invest all the resources he had in the project, making possible what was supposed to be impossible before.Given how strongly he felt about the Healing Pill, he most definitely would travel to Europe personally to pass Helena the AI module and make the purchase.In fact, Charlie was positive he would take the half-pill on the spot.Still, that wasn't good news for Julien. His father would live longer the more pills he consumed, while he had even less chance of succeeding him in this lifetime.Raising his glass at Julien, Charlie smiled, "Come, let's drink to your safe journey home."Seeing that Charlie was changi

Still, Charlie decided to throw a bone and stroke Julien's ego.Pretending to be displeased, he said, "Backstabbing?! I'll definitely make Harrison pay! Hell, I will show him what comes of it when he arrives in Europe in a few days."Celebrating inwardly, Julien quickly said, "Don't worry, Mr. Wade! I'm the only person not involved who knows. Rest assured, my lips are sealed, and no one will know about the Whittakers."Charlie nodded just as Albert knocked on the door and entered. "Shall we start serving the food now, Master Wade?"Charlie beckoned, "Hold on, take a seat. "There are things I need to tell you and Julien here."Albert quickly took a seat, nodding respectfully, "At your service, Master Wade."Charlie glanced at Julien before asking, "Well, Julien said he'd donate a hundred million USD for upgrades and renovations. Is that true?""Yes, yes, I did!" Julien answered before Albert could. "Don't worry, Mr. Rhodes. I will arrange for the transfer once I return to the Sta

Seeing the push notification, Julien blurted, "That was quick! I literally read the BBC barely moments ago…""BBC?" Charlie asked in curiosity. "What is it about? Could they be covering the Whittakers?""Exactly!" Julien replied as he quickly swiped through the article. "Jennie Whittaker seems to have given a full exclusive, with an interview and her photos plastered all over the article. She's definitely smart—she hasn't even paid the ransom, but she's getting all the media attention."Charlie chuckled, not particularly surprised, even though he hadn't read the article. "It is one billion USD, after all. Can't blame her if she wants to buy good press with that."Julien sighed, shaking his head. "Yeah, but she wouldn't know how her family's kidnappers would react. Isn't she worried that going to the media would upset them and drive them to kill her family?"Passing Charlie his phone, he continued, "Check it out. All the photos are taken in her home—she might have gone to them as e

Raymond smiled and nodded, taking a seat while Charlie sat beside him.Julien then asked in concern, "Mr. Wade, have the Whittakers paid their ransom? I won't lie—I don't think they're going to pay up, which means it's a loss for you…"Charlie chuckled. "Oh, come on. Do you think I really care about pocket change like that? I'm just trying to do you a favor here. I mean, you've been in Aurous Hill for so long but never found the Whittakers, and you'd be humiliated if you returned empty-handed."That's why I had them taken to a faraway place and recorded a video, staging the Whittakers' abduction as if it were a simple demand for ransom. Is that not the perfect cover? No one's going to question your competence even after you fly back to the States tonight."That only left Julien crumbling on the inside.It really was all over for him, and all because of his big fat mouth!Now that Charlie had done him so many favors, Charlie would squeeze him for the one billion if the Whittakers

Meanwhile, Jennie didn't wait and wired a billion USD in cryptocurrency to the Ten Thousand Armies' account in just half a day.It was no exaggeration either—she had managed the family's funds aplenty, but never once had she made a payment this much or this quickly.This was mainly because Harrison's promise motivated her.Despite facing the pushy cameramen and nosy journalists, Jennie was actually excited, almost as if she were already the nation's most beloved mother and wife.And Harrison held up his end of the bargain too, utilizing the Rothschild's ability to manipulate public sentiment to great effect.The instant Jennie paid the ransom, every major American media outlet promptly covered the ransom case in extreme detail, and it started trending in every state once it was published.Before long, the media directed the focus to Jennie, and so, the public was soon enthralled by her strong-willed response to the ransom.All at once, the story of Jennie's valiant bid to rescue
