The Amazing son in law Chapter 6360
The official announcement of Helena’s itinerary is just hours away. The next question is whether Howard Rothschild will allow his eldest grandson, Royce, to make the trip there.
If all goes according to plan, Charlie Wade may take Steve’s helicopter and head to Canada with Royce.
In any case, these two men are currently my unwilling captives. I don’t need to worry about them spilling any secrets. This collaboration can be leveraged to manipulate them moving forward, which is far more advantageous than merely offering psychological nudges.
After all, once psychological suggestions are in play, those closest to the individual will likely notice inconsistencies sooner or later. Thus, Charlie Wade prefers this method of soft binding that becomes more resilient as the opponent grows stronger. The more effort they exert to escape, the stronger the binding becomes.
Steve and Royce were taken aback when they witnessed Marven finish his phone call with Helena.
They never imagined that Queen Helena of Northern Europe, a figure so sought after that prime ministers and presidents from around the world vie for her attention, would receive a call from Charlie Wade right in front of them.
Noticing their astonishment, Charlie Wade pointed at Royce and addressed Steve, saying, “When news breaks about Helena’s upcoming trip to Canada, if Howard refuses to let your son go, I’ll hold you accountable!”
Steve quickly replied, “Mr. Wade, rest assured, the old man is far more invested in this than I am!” He continued, “You see, our Rothschild family has faced challenges for the past two or three hundred years. I’ve harbored a dream for many years that remains unfulfilled—marrying into a European royal family!”
“Even though Helena is quite well-known, the Nordic royal family has struggled financially. Their situation is precarious, and the population is not thriving, resulting in a bleak overall landscape. It’s akin to some internet celebrities who, while famous, rely on others for financial support. They may be popular, but they often need to borrow money just to buy a house.”
“The old man believes this predicament works to our advantage because European royalty often values wealth above all else. As long as they possess a bit of money, they elevate themselves above others. They often dismiss those whom they perceive as less noble. When we approach them for marriage, they are enticed by our wealth while simultaneously looking down on our less noble origins.”
“Only when they find themselves in dire straits, unable to sustain their aristocratic facade, do wealthy families like ours find an opportunity.”
Charlie Wade nodded thoughtfully, responding, “Your assessment is indeed astute, but we’ll soon discover how accurate it is in reality.”
As he spoke, he glanced out the window.
At that moment, the sky had turned dark.
The pre-dawn night was darker than midnight itself.
