Noticing Jimmy Smith’s unease, Charlie Wade offered a reassuring smile, saying, “Don’t worry, no one here will harm you. If you ever feel threatened, remember that the emergency number in China is 110. You can call the police anytime.”
Relieved by Charlie’s attempt to ease the tension, Jimmy straightened his cor and replied, “I’m not here to stir up trouble. I’m genuinely happy that my sister-inw is finding true love again. If you could be a bit friendlier, I’d be willing to set aside our differences and stay for the wedding. It would be a way for the Smith family to send their ‘wedding blessings’ to my sister-inw.”
As he spoke, he cast a sneering nce at Hank and added, “I’m actually quite curious about Professor He’s connections that could make even Bill Gates concede. I look forward to witnessing it.”
Charlie nodded with a smile, “You’ll see soon enough.”
Jimmy, naturally skeptical, scoffed, “I can’t believe a ce like Jinling could possibly find someone capable of making Bill Gates back down.”<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Just as Jimmy finished speaking, a figure rushed in. It was Steve Rothschild, who had received Charlie’s message.
Ever since he had that medicinal wine from Charlie, Steve viewed him as a savior. When Charlie sent a message asking him toe to Buckingham Pce, he hurried over without hesitation.
Fortunately, his hotel was nearby, so he arrived quickly.
Upon entering, Steve spotted Charlie immediately. Following the instructions in Charlie’s message, he approached Hank, who was dressed in a suit with a groom’s boutonniere, and eximed excitedly, “Old Hank! Congrattions on your wedding!”
Everyone turned to see a middle-aged white man in his fifties making his way towards Hank, but most in the room, including Jimmy, Paul, Matilda, and others who had spent years in the United States, were unfamiliar with him.
The reason for their unfamiliarity was that they were still far removed from the Rothschild family’s stature. The Rothschild family possesses its own legal team, whose expertise and status vastly surpass those of the Smith family. Even though the Smith Law Firm ranks among the best in the United States, it pales inparison to the Rothschilds.
Hank, despite his years of hard work and sess on Wall Street, had never had the opportunity to engage with the Rothschild family.
His first knowledge of Steve came during a dinner at Charlie’s grandfather’s house, where he learned that Steve was now closely aligned with Charlie. Upon seeing Steve in person, he began to piece together his identity.<fnc59b> For more chapters visit find~novel</fnc59b>
A quick nce at Charlie confirmed his suspicions as he saw Charlie nod in acknowledgment.
Charlie leaned in and whispered to Hank, “Uncle Hank, this is Steve Rothschild, the one I mentioned. I asked him to pose as your good friend from Wall Street. Make sure not to let the truth slip.”
“This…” Hank realized that Charlie could indeed summon Steve at will, but never imagined he woulde to help with the charade.
However, since Charlie had brought him in, Hank knew he had to y his part well. He took a deep breath and said to Steve, “Thank you so much! Steve! I didn’t expect you toe…”
Steve approached him, shook his hand warmly, and embraced him, smiling as he said, “Given our rtionship, it would be quite unreasonable for me not to attend your wedding.”
