The Amazing son in law Chapter 6965

Nordic Palace.
The Rothschilds received another invitation a day later to attend a banquet hosted by Queen Helena.
Howard felt an urgency; he knew the AI model had been delivered, and Helena was supposed to keep her promise to sell him half of the Blood-Rescuing Heart Pill.
This meal might very well be centered around that transaction. However, he felt a twinge of confusion. He had agreed with Helena not to discuss the pill in front of his son. If she intended to sell it to him tonight, the timing seemed off.
Meanwhile, Steve had lost interest in the Nordic Palace. His thoughts were on returning to New York to prepare for an immediate trip to China, leaving him somewhat distracted during dinner.
Before the meal commenced, Helena reached out to Charlie Wade and inquired, “Mr. Wade, I will be dining with the Rothschild father and son shortly. I want to ask when you plan to give Howard Rothschild the half pill? If it’s not today, I’ll subtly inform him.”
Charlie Wade smiled and replied, “Let him enjoy his meal first. I will meet you later to hand over the pill and see Steve again.”
Helena then asked, “So, you plan to sell the pill to Howard tonight?”
“Yes,” Charlie Wade confirmed, “Sell it to him tonight so he can return to the U.S. tomorrow.”
“Alright!” Helena replied with a smile. “Let me know when you arrive at the palace, and I’ll come to see you.”
After ending the call, Helena made her way to the banquet hall, where the Rothschild father and son had been waiting. Noticing Helena’s delay, Steve leaned over to Howard and whispered, “Father, you’ve handled nearly everything here, right? When do you plan to head back to the U.S.?”
Howard felt uncertain. While his tasks were completed and the AI model successfully handed over, he remained anxious. The promised $50 billion was ready, just waiting for him to purchase the other half of the pill from Helena. However, her lack of a definite answer was starting to unsettle him.
He wasn’t worried about being deceived by Helena but was concerned about potential changes in the situation. If she decided the AI model needed further testing and acceptance, he would have to wait longer.
So, he told Steve, “Although everything is nearly finished, I still have some collaboration and would like to speak with Queen Iliad again. It may take at least a day or two, possibly longer if things drag out.”
Steve responded, “Father, if there’s nothing for me to do here, I’d prefer to return to New York to prepare and quickly leave for China. Would that be acceptable?”
Howard’s mind raced. Although Steve had previously indicated he would go to China alone to develop business—an attempt to avoid suspicion—Howard was not entirely reassured. What if Steve was merely creating a diversion? What if his desire to return to New York was just a ruse?
After some contemplation, Howard responded, “I believe my business will only take two days. There’s no need for us to leave one after the other. You can wait for me for a couple more days.”
Feeling defeated, Steve acquiesced, “Alright, father, I’ll follow your lead.”
As they spoke, Helena entered, elegantly dressed and accompanied by the old queen.
