Chapter 66

Author: Lord Leaf

Claire frowned in confusion. Was this where Charlie had booked their anniversary dinner tonight?

She couldn’t help but ask suspiciously, “You’re not bluffing, are you?”

Charlie chuckled gleefully. “Of course, not!”

Then, he continued, “I made a reservation a few days ago. Let’s go in and check if you don’t believe me.”

Claire shook her head. Charlie had never once deceived her after being married for three years, especially not on such an important day as today. So she said, “Nah, I believe

Wallis was just as thrilled when she received the promise.She had suffered more than Rachel did for years, never having a shot at being awarded the Dragon Bronze Plaque, let alone the six-month antidote.In fact, she never had true freedom for more than ten days.Her husband David Getty had been complaining about how boring she could be, refusing to travel abroad if it meant more than one week, let alone drifting across the world. Wallis naturally couldn't tell him why even though she yearned for freedom more than anyone, because she didn't have that freedom.But now, a golden opportunity presented itself—with the Dragon Bronze Plaque, she could travel around the world without needing to check in or waiting for approval. With the antidote that lasted six months, she would finally fulfill her dreams of traveling the world.Despite her thrill, she quickly relayed the news to Rachel, who was just as excited.When she herself received the Dragon Bronze Plaque, she felt like a color

At this point, Julien was completely under Charlie's thumb, and his very willing victim. After all, Charlie was the one who decided whether he succeeded his father as the head of the Rothchilds, while also helping him stay in the seat for a very long time.And in the end, Charlie would help him live much longer.He wasn't that young, but his father still had yet to step down. At this rate, he'd only enjoy the pinnacle privilege of being the head of the Rothschilds for ten years or so.But what if he got a couple of rejuvenation pills from Charlie? He'd live another fifty years, would he not?Naturally, his son would be really upset if he stayed in that seat for fifty years, but it was fine—he could step down if things get hairy.It was not different if his heirs took over anyway, as they were all born to wealth and privilege, and it was no problem for him if he stayed as the head of the family. Meanwhile, when Esteban learned that Rachel was going to meet Julien again, he was ho

Julien nodded without hesitation. "No problem!"He didn't even know who Charlie intended to fleece, but he relished the idea of being Charlie's accomplice. In contrast, one might only be considered a business partner if it was charity, but inviting someone to something shady meant you were now a partner-in-crime, which definitely holds more weight than being a business partner.Hence, Charlie chose an Oskian-American crypto trader in the US, a titan in the scene. However, he also recently narrowly escaped jail time and seizure of all his assets by bribing friends in high places with over ten billion—it was basically cutting off a limb to survive. Any sane man would have left right away too, but he didn't, nor did he see the loss of money as all that horrible. He already paid his dues, and that meant he could stay Stateside without worry of arrests.Recently, he had been doing everything he could to build close ties with America's elites to strengthen his recent position in the cou

Julien was determined as this was a perfect chance for him to show his loyalty. To curry Charlie's favor, a few hundred million USD sounded like a damn good deal.Hence, he assured Charlie, "If there's more to be done, just leave it to me! I'll take full charge!" Seeing that he was insisting, Charlie didn't argue and nodded slightly. "Alright, then you're on point for this one. And try to make it look real."Then, turning to Rachel, he said, "In the evening, report that Julien is going to manipulate the cryptocurrency market—say it's at least three times the profit. They will be delighted, and definitely try to squeeze you for more information, if not directly ask Julien's permission to buy in. We will arrange the groundwork in a couple of days to slowly reel him in."Rachel bowed her head respectfully right then. "Yes, Mr. Cooper. I'll get it done."Charlie nodded and sighed. "We will also need something convincing enough for him to invest everything he has, which would cost a

However, a mind trick wasn't the best option if Charlie wanted control over Esteban—the man was a governor serving the Qing Eliminating Society and therefore close to their inner circle, if not having personal contact with Fleur.It was therefore likely Fleur would send an elder or some confidante to inspect Esteban at a moment's notice, and the mind trick could very much be noticed.That was why he needed Esteban to be his willing slave.Naturally, bribery or threats wouldn't work in that respect—he needed Esteban to mess up big time.It was clear Esteban wasn't completely loyal if he had the guts to make profits behind Fleur's back. Working from that logic, using more profits to tempt him would work, and he could well make a fatal mistake from there.Rachel had no idea what Charlie's real plan was, but had the feeling it was no pipe dream if he wanted to control Esteban either.Nodding without hesitation, she said, "Whatever you need, Mr. Cooper—just ask! I'll do my best to h

Moreover, the staff tactfully left once they took Rachel to the lounge where Charlie and Vera were.Once it was just the three of them, Rachel glided toward the other two and bowed reverently, "Greetings, Mr. and Ms. Cooper!"Charlie smiled at her. "I'm guessing the Left Military Governorate was really pleased with buying the dip?" Rachel nodded repeatedly. "Yes! The governor was so pleased he even sent a praetor to reward me!"She then told Charlie about all the rewards Esteban showered her with, along with the Dragon Bronze Plaque.Taking it for a brief look, Charlie handed it back to Rachel and said quietly, "This Plaque plus the antidote that lasts 180 days definitely means progress. But that's still stingy of Esteban—he should have given your mother one too."He spoke nonchalantly, but it really struck a chord with Rachel.Being a Scholar wasn't an individual tragedy—it was generational, lasting several centuries.After all, Rachel was not the only Scholar in her family,
