With that, charlie Wade took out his phone and called Steve Rothschild, his loyal confidant in the United States and the designated heir of the Rothschild family.


    Steve Rothschild had been enjoying afortable life recently. With his position as the crown prince of the Rothschild family firmly secured, he had grown closer to charlie Wade during hisst visit to China. Now, all he had to do was wait patiently for the old patriarch to step down.


    It was morning in the United States, and Steve had just woken up. As he savored avish brunch with a drowsy expression, his phone buzzed with a call from charlie Wade. Instantly, he perked up, his voice brimming with excitement. “Mr. Wade! What a pleasant surprise. What brings you to call me today?”


    charlie Wade replied, “Steve, I need a favor. Are you avable to help?”


    “Of course!” Steve eximed without hesitation. “Mr. Wade, our rtionship is solid. Whatever you need, just say the word. I’ll do everything in my power to assist you, even if it’s beyond my capabilities!”<fn8509> Get full chapters from find·novel</fn8509><h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    charlie Wade continued in a calm tone, “Someone in the United States has put a $1 billion bounty on the undergroundwork to target Tawanna Sweet. I suspect this is connected to the ind that made headlines not long ago. These people are backed by chaebols, but your Rothschild family is the chaebol of chaebols. I trust you’re well-acquainted with them, right?”


    At first, Mitsui Yoshitaka and Tawanna, who were sitting beside charlie Wade, didn’t think much when they heard him addressing someone named Steve. After all, Steve is amon name in the United States, much like Wei, Tao, or Bo in China.


    However, their expressions changed dramatically when charlie Wade mentioned that Steve was from the Rothschild family.


    If this Steve was indeed from the Rothschilds, then he had to be Steve Rothschild, the second-inmand and heir apparent of the family.


    The two of them were stunned, struggling toprehend how charlie Wade, an unassuming Chinese man, could be connected to such an extraordinary and influential social circle.


    Fei Kexin treated charlie Wade with the utmost respect, yet he casually referred to Steve by his first name. This level of familiarity was truly beyond their imagination.


    Meanwhile, on the other end of the phone, Steve, hearing charlie Wade mention the ind, was quick to dissociate himself from the matter. He said, “Mr. Wade, I think I know which ind you’re referring to, but let me make one thing absolutely clear: our Rothschild family never engages in such despicable activities or associates with those people. Their dealings are far too dirty. Even if I were invited, I wouldn’t set foot on that godforsaken ind! I swear to God, I’ve never been there!”


    charlie Wade responded coolly, “I don’t care whether you’ve been there or not, or even if you live there full-time. What I need from you now is to contact that group and make it clear: whoever issued the hidden bounty must retract it immediately—or else their entire family will face the consequences.”


    Steve agreed without hesitation. “Mr. Wade, rest assured, this will be easy to handle. I’ll make a few calls and try to pinpoint someone resembling Anhua. Even if I can’t locate him directly, I’ll make sure the message reaches his ears!”


    “Good,” charlie Wade replied with satisfaction. “I’ll leave this to you and wait for your update.”


    Before hanging up, Steve asked curiously, “By the way, Mr. Wade, why are you suddenly stepping in to help Tawanna? Could it be… you’ve fallen for her?”


    charlie Wade snapped, “Shut up and get to work!”
