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

Charlie, Vera, and Julien headed to the Bay Area together while Rob and Rachel drove there.Charlie and Vera both adopted pseudonyms along the way—Charlie was Andy Cooper, while Vera was Anna Cooper.The country club was owned by the Rothschild family. The selection process for the membership was strict and was reviewed personally by the Rothschild family. It was not even a matter of paying them enough—exclusivity was the motto, and only those deemed worthy by the Rothschild family became members. The strongest advantage of such exclusivity was easily the management members. By leveraging the Rothschilds' influence and resources to bring together the rich and the important, the pooling of wealth and influence would lead to improved relations and stronger business partnerships. There was also the privacy and exclusivity maintained—no one of such caliber and privilege was prone to leaking what was said and done here, or being exposed by a 'friend'. While inappropriate remarks or ac

Wallis Getty—Rachel's mother—soon answered and asked, "It isn't the usual time for check-ins. Is this important?""Rob's granduncle is here!" Rachel exclaimed excitedly right then. "It's Julien Rothschild, the heir apparent of the Rothschild family!" "Wait, Julien? In California?" Rachel's mother blurted in surprise."Yes!" Rachel exclaimed excitedly, "That's not all—he's right here in the Bay Area! He even invited Rob to dinner, while asking if he had a girlfriend. Rob naturally told him about me, so he asked Rob to bring me along for dinner!" Wallis paused, but soon exclaimed with immense joy, "Really?! That's wonderful! Rob is making things official, while you get to meet Julien Rothschild too?! Lady Griffin was pinning her hopes on our lineage to marry into the Rothschild family, and now that seems more and more possible!"Rachel was thrilled too, as she was aware there would be no stop to Fleur's plan to infiltrate everything and everyone. The high society of the western he

Rachel, forcing back her excitement, asked Rob tentatively, "Don't you think it's inappropriate for me to join a family dinner?""What's inappropriate about it?" Rob asked, smiling at her. "He suggested it. Just tag along if you have nothing on your plate."Rachel feigned hesitant silence, eventually saying nervously, "A-Alright… But you gotta warn me if there's anything I should worry about beforehand…"Rob found her nervous reaction all adorable, and couldn't resist caressing her cheek while grinning, "There's nothing to worry about. Sure, he's the heir apparent of the Rothschild family, but just pretend he's another uncle."Rachel nodded. "Oh, do you think I have time to change? I have to look a little solemn, at least."Rob smiled and nodded. "Sure. Let's get to the dorms."She nodded and they both headed to the girls' dorms.It was quite a luxurwy accommodation, with each unit being an apartment with two rooms and a common area.Boys were allowed in during daytime, but Rob

But since Julien had put it that way, Rob couldn't refuse even if he wanted to, and braced himself as he replied, "Yes, sir…"Julien chuckled heartily. "Good, then go get prepared now.""Okay…"Rob was confused even as he hung up, but he didn't wait to call his father.After all, Julien was virtually the second-in-command of the family. Whatever his intentions were, Rob had to tell his family first.His father was just as surprised when Rob told him, as his own father Damian had a terrible falling out with Julien before Julien was named heir apparent.Even though Damian now wanted to make peace, Julien wasn't having it. It was therefore confusing that Julien would, for some reason, invite Damian's grandson to dinner, but also an unexpectedly pleasant surprise. This was indeed a bit puzzling, but it was also an unexpected joy for the family. Considering how bad the feud with Damian was, the fact that Julien was now being chummy with Rob at least meant progress.That was why Ro
Chapter 7813
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
