The Amazing son in law Chapter 8007
charlie wade’s demeanor was becoming increasingly imposing. At first, it seemed like Steve valued him highly, but now it was clear it was respect, even bordering on obsequiousness and fawning.
charlie wade then introduced Lin Wan’er (Alani) to the two, smiling faintly, “This is my sister, Anna Chen. I’m interested in having her study at Stanford. If she comes, I’ll need your help in looking after her.”
Rachel quickly reassured him, “Mr. Chen, rest assured, Robert and I will do our best to help with any problems you encounter at Stanford!”
Robert also snapped out of his daze and quickly extended his hand to Lin Wan’er (Alani), saying respectfully, “Hello, Miss Chen!”
charlie wade simply pushed his hand aside, saying casually, “The attitude is enough; no need for a handshake.”
Lin Wan’er (Alani) couldn’t help but cover her mouth with her slender fingers and giggle. Although Robert was a little embarrassed, he thought that even Steve Rothschild treated charlie wade with great respect, so he decided not to be too sensitive.
Steve smiled and said, “Mr. Chen, would you like to sit down first and then eat and chat?”
“Sure.” charlie wade smiled and nodded, adopting the air of a host as he casually smiled at Robert and Rachel, “Come, come, sit down and eat and chat.”
Robert and Rachel exchanged a glance and quickly nodded respectfully, but seeing that Steve didn’t dare to sit down first, they also stood obediently at the table, waiting for charlie wade to sit down first.
As charlie wade led Lin Wan’er (Alani) to sit down, he smiled and said to the three of them, “Don’t be so reserved, come, sit down.”
Hearing this, Steve immediately smiled and sat down on charlie wade’s other side, then said to Robert and Rachel, who were still standing, “You two, don’t just stand there, sit down.”
Robert was completely confused. He wasn’t a very thoughtful or quick-witted person, and didn’t have a strong political mind. At this moment, he just felt bewildered, so he was cautious in everything he did and had lost his ability to judge and analyze.Rachel, having been meticulously nurtured by her mother from a young age, was far more mature than the average person. However, maturity has its limits. This question was beyond Robert’s comprehension level, and also beyond hers, which was at a university level. Countless deductions flashed through her mind. She considered that charlie wade might be a descendant of one of China’s most prestigious families, but then she felt that it wouldn’t be enough to make Steve so humble. Even the President of the United States wouldn’t dare to boss Steve around like that. She also considered that charlie wade might have some kind of secret about Steve, but none of them seemed reasonable. The Epstein affair was huge enough, wasn’t it? That secret was at most enormous, right? But in the end, apart from the old man himself dying, no one else was really implicated. If those people weren’t afraid of being implicated, what did Steve have to be afraid of?
Rachel made a series of wild guesses in her mind, but in the end, she rejected them all. This made her even more curious about charlie wade’s identity, to the point of being extremely anxious.
After the five of them had finished their photo session, Steve handed the exquisite menu to charlie wade and respectfully said, “Mr. Chen, would you like to see what you’d like to eat?”
charlie wade didn’t take the menu but casually said, “It doesn’t matter what we eat. Go to the kitchen and see what ingredients are the best and freshest today, then arrange it.”
Robert suddenly felt like he had a needle stuck in his butt. He felt that charlie wade was treating his great-grandfather like a servant, ordering him around. If his great-grandfather was treated like this, how could he, his grand-nephew, be entitled to sit there? Wasn’t this going against the natural order?
Steve, on the other hand, readily agreed with a smile, saying, “Okay, Mr. wade, I’ll go take a look right away.”
Steve knew charlie wade’s intentions; he wanted him to take Robert along as well. Just as he was about to call Robert over, the restless Robert stood up on his own initiative, nervously saying, “Grandpa Steve, I… I’ll go with you…”
Steve nodded with a look of satisfaction, thinking that this kid had some sense. Even he, the heir to the Rothschild family, was in the kitchen ordering food; if a Rothschild descendant were still sitting there calmly, this guy’s emotional intelligence would be practically nonexistent.
So he called to Robert, “Robert, you come with me. Rachel, you stay and keep Mr. and Miss Chen company. Mr. Chen said you’re practically compatriots, so you can chat more.”
Rachel was naturally more than happy to oblige, quickly standing up respectfully and saying, “Yes, Mr. Rothschild.”
