LOGINThe Rothschilds had always been a titan in trading, and their game plan was always to overwhelm their rivals with their sheer scale. If anyone wanted to cling to the Rothschilds, they would have to satisfy themselves with meager profits that wouldn't draw the family's attention. Otherwise, anyone trying to ride the wave of their success would be devoured whole too.That was why the third idea was stupid—the risk was high especially when betting big. And after much consideration, Esteban went with the third idea. It was safer—instead of hitting the futures market, they just had to stockpile while using small leverage to acquire more shares off the books. Once prices inflated again, they'd sell all their stockpile for a quick, hefty profit with the price difference. Even if the price fluctuated again afterward, there was no risk of suffering too much losses.Hence, he summoned his confidant—Horus Daven, praetor of the Left Military Governorate."Pay a visit to the Gettys and mee
Always listening, the Left Military Governorate immediately caught wind.They might be a feudal lordship under the rule of the Qing Eliminating Society at the moment, but they hd also been making their own moves to further private agendas.Over the last few years, they had been making money through faking their numbers in their respective businesses. And making money had become so addicting that Esteban—the Left Military Governor himself was always watching every day to find any ideas to make even more.He had certainly been getting rich with the recent surge in oil prices. Like any stock market investor, he bought stocks that kept hitting the daily inflation limit, but even though he had plenty of money now, he was always watching out for the next big thing.Naturally, the core members of the Left Military Governorate were all his family and cronies, working in perfect tandem as he moved. Once they learned from Rachel that the Rothschilds intended to use the Middle East Conflict t
The trio's faces stiffened, but soon they nodded and replied, "Yes, Ms. Getty."Getting into her room and locking the door, Rachel whipped out her phone and called her mother Wallis, who was waiting anxiously back home in Miami.Wallis had already informed the Left Military Governorate before Rachel met Julien, and they were thrilled. They naturally understood that Rob was insignificant to the Rothschilds but weren't giving up yet—if anything, that last name carried considerable weight on this side of the world. Even just having Rachel marry him would be a merit noted by Fleur herself.And now, they had Julien too—if they could really make things work with Julien, that was a major accomplishment under the belt of the Left Military Governorate.That was why the Left Military Governorate was keen to know all the details of Rachel's meeting with Julien, including why Julien had sought out Rob and what they had talked about.Since Rachel and Rob confirmed they were dating, Left Mili
Even now, Rachel was still convinced that she would have to marry Rob no matter what.That was why she couldn't accept her future husband staying as a nobody in the Rothschild family.Before, the kid wouldn't even have a chance to glimpse the hierarchy of his extended family—the most he could do was become the head of his collateral family.But now, Rob had basically found providence in Julien, who could improve her odds of marrying Rob. And that mysterious Mr. Cooper whom Julien had bent backward to fawn over would be providence for her and her family too.Rob too understood profoundly at that moment that her girlfriend's political acumen far surpassed his, and that her explanations afforded him a clearer view of the many little things that governed his own life.Hence, he promptly pressed Rachel, "So you're saying I should try to keep in touch with my granduncle?""Of course," Rachel replied, nodding. "And not just stay in his good graces, but prove that you're loyal to him alo
Rachel quickly told her, "Did you forget? Your granduncle told you not to run your mouth, or to discuss any details with your parents."However, Rob shook his head, his face serious. "That's what he said, but my parents are more family to me than he is. He's like my grandfather's brother…"Rachel shook her head, her face grim. "If that's your mindset, you'll become no different from your grandfather—eventually reduced to a collateral branch. And you most certainly won't have a chance to inherit much of anything."Rob was taken aback. "What? Why?""Because you don't know how to pick a side!" Rachel snapped sternly. "Whether you become the main beneficiary of your parents' inheritance isn't up to your parents, but your grandfather. First, your own father needs to be appointed as heir from amongst his siblings. And even if he is chosen, you still have to compete against your own siblings. One misstep, and it's game over!"Rob's expression stiffened and he asked gingerly, "W-Well, wha
Unlike Beverly Hills or Bay Area's glamorous neighborhoods, the rich and the powerful of Miami dwelled on artificial islands lining the coastline. Such islands might not have bridges or roads, which meant the residents would move between home and the mainland by helicopter or yacht.And the Gettys reside in one of the most expensive islands where US property values peak, far beyond real estate in New York, Beverly Hills, or Hawaii.With their background in manufacturing industries, the Gettys were a sucker of appearances. Their mansion occupied a third of their island, even on an island composed of multiple mansions. The island itself was a mile from the coastline, and there was a villa by the beach that served as a transit point—residents usually parked their cars there and then headed to the island by helicopter or yacht.As Charlie arrived at the coastline and scouted the area, he decided that he would infiltrate the Gettys' island residence alone and wait for the Qing Eliminat
Charlie could not help but laugh when he heard Dorothy’s words. “This is because the Apothecary Stomach Pill is not listed on the market yet. Therefore, we have to maintain some secrecy measures too. This is normal in all pharmaceutical industries. It is an industrial practice.”Quinn said apologetic
As a man, Charlie understood the old man’s train of thought very well.Which man on earth would not want his woman to be happy?It was just that there were some people with limited capability, thus, unable to do it.Just like Charlie during those days, not only was he poor, but he also had no assets.

As Quinn was setting off to Aurous Hill, Charlie was riding his motorcycle to the stadium.Today was the feisty young lady Aurora’s quarter-final match.She would have to compete against the third seed of this championship, Brazil’s Joanna, today.Today’s match would determine which one of these two pl
Nanako frowned and said, “Mr. Wade, please clarify your statement!”Charlie uttered, “First of all, if you walk on the path of the world of martial arts, you should first cultivate your mind, your body, and then the arts.”“In other words, the importance of the mind in pursuing this journey is greater
