“Aurous Hill?” The old man asked in surprise. “You mean that my birth gate is in Aurous Hill?” “Yes.” Vera nodded slightly and said, “It seems you should go to Aurous Hill with me!” The old man hurriedly asked, “Miss, may… may I go with you?” “Of course.” Vera nodded and said, “Since your birth gate is in the south and is related to me, Aurous Hill is the most likely place. Let’s go there together. You'll be able to live to a hundred years old if we can find your birth gate.” The old man was extremely excited and said reverently, “Thank you for your kindness, Miss!” After that, he trembled and was about to kneel. Vera quickly got up to stop him and said seriously, “You don’t need to kneel to me. Although this birth gate is related to me, it’s by no means something I can bring to you, so you still have to go to Aurous Hill to find your own chance encounter. What I can do for you is perhaps to wish you good luck in your search.” The old man nodded hastily and sobbed, “Thank
“Oh heavens!” Logan exclaimed. “Miss, why are you at Emmett’s place?” Vera said, “I have some personal matter, and I came here to ask for his help.” After saying that, she got straight to the point and said, “I plan to go to Aurous Hill and may need to live in Aurous Hill for a while, so I would like to ask if you have a house in Aurous Hill that I can settle down in temporarily.” Logan immediately replied without hesitation, “Yes, of course! I have a hilltop mansion on Scarlet Pinnacle in Aurous Hill inside the forest park that’s not open to the public! It's a private mansion specially approved by Aurous Hill when I returned there with my wife to invest in construction. I also built a special road leading to the mansion, and this forest park is located in the urban area of Aurous Hill, so it’s convenient to go anywhere. You can stay there if you are going to Aurous Hill! I also have a few cars and a helicopter, and they are all taken care of.” Vera said, “Great. Please help me
Vera’s style of action was very fast-paced without any sloppiness. After hanging up the phone with Logan, she immediately told Emmett, “Mr. Sandsor, I need you to help me arrange a plane. I'll go to Malaysia now.” Emmett hurriedly asked, “Miss, why don’t I go with you?” Vera waved her hand and said seriously, “There's no need for that. You have a special status, so things will be easily exposed in the future if you leave a record of the two of us leaving the country together. I’ll go there myself using the identity I entered the country with, and I'll return with a new identity. I'll head to Aurous Hill directly when I come back. You should meet me in Aurous Hill when the time comes.” When Emmett heard this, he nodded and said, “Understood. I’ll wait for your news in Eastcliff. I'll meet you after you arrive in Aurous Hill.” “Okay!” Vera asked him, “When will the plane be able to fly at the earliest?” Emmett hurriedly replied, “There's a Gulfstream G700 business jet on sta
When the call connected, Elaine smacked her lips playfully as she chirped, “Oh, my dear son-in-law, why are you calling me at this time?” Charlie said with a smile, “Mom, how is your recovery?” Elaine smiled and said, “It’s good, very good! I’m having shark’s fin, abalone, cordyceps, and sea cucumber every day, and I have better nutrition than soccer players! The doctors here are also very skillful, so my leg is recovering quite well.” Charlie said, “That’s good. Claire graduated from her class today, and we plan to check out and go to New York in the morning tomorrow. We will return to Aurous Hill together after we pick you up.” “Return to Aurous Hill?” Elaine’s tone instantly sounded depressed, and she said, “My dear son-in-law, it’ll be boring once I return to Aurous Hill. My leg in this state will be inconvenient, and I'll have to trouble you and Claire in our daily lives. I think it’d be better for you and Claire to go back first. I'll stay here for a few more days to recu
Kathleen and Claire chatted for a long time in the executive lounge. During this period, Kathleen modified her story slightly, which made everything seem incomparably natural and smooth to Claire. According to Kathleen, she and her grandfather went to Aurous Hill at the beginning because her father’s physical condition was deteriorating. Someone introduced the genius doctor, Anthony Simmons, to her grandfather, so they flew to Aurous Hill immediately. After arriving in Aurous Hill, Kathleen used the alias, Kylie Jane, to keep a low profile. She had already chosen this identity when she entered Oskia, so this also made Claire realize that Kathleen did not come up with a fake name just to deceive her. Kathleen then told Claire that she and her grandfather found Anthony to treat her grandfather after arriving in Aurous Hill, and he really managed to cure her grandfather’s illness. But at that time, her eldest uncle took advantage of her grandfather’s absence in the United Stat
Charlie laughed and said modestly, “In fact, it’s mainly because she was born with such a foundation. You should know that Miss Fox is a member of the Fox family, and she was born into such a wealthy family, so she was destined to have a fate that’s one in hundreds of millions. Besides, she also has the support of her grandfather, so basically everything has already been set up for her, and the only thing left was her Feng Shui.” Claire said very seriously, “That’s already very powerful! I used to think that someone would come and ask you for an explanation one day if you always go out to read Feng Shui for others, but it seems that you really have great ability, Honey! It’s no wonder why people call you Master Wade! It’s because you’re a real master!” With a smile, Charlie rubbed his nose and said, “Honey, I’ll get a big head if you praise me too much.” Claire smiled. “Master Wade, you can be proud confidently!” … After a few hours, a Gulfstream aircraft landed at an airport
The next day, Charlie and Claire packed their luggage, checked out of the hotel, and left Providence, where they had been living for more than a month.The two drove directly to the airport in New York. Just as they were checking the car out at the airport, Charlie received a call from Elaine.Elaine asked him over the phone, “My dear son-in-law, I’m already at the airport. Where are you?”Charlie asked her, “Mom, are you in the VIP building?”“Yes.” Elaine said, “The director of the hospital, Director Camior, sent me here personally.”“Okay.” Charlie responded and said, “Wait for us in the lobby of the VIP building. We’ll be right there.” After hanging up the phone, Charlie also completed the procedures for returning the car and then turned around as he said to Claire, who was waiting, “Let’s go to the VIP building directly. Mom has already arrived.”Claire did not know that her mother had broken her leg again this time and could not help but tease, “My mother is really amazin
At this time, a woman who was about the same age as Elaine and looked like an intellectual then came forward and said to Claire with an apologetic expression, “You must be Claire, right?”Charlie had seen this woman before. She was the director of the Fox family’s hospital who was specially in charge of Elaine. It seemed that she had come over today to help Elaine cover up her lies in front of Claire. When Claire saw her, she nodded in a daze and asked in surprise, “Who are you?”The woman hurriedly said, “I’m your mother’s friend. She has been staying with me in New York these past few days. I’m really sorry, it’s all my fault. I failed to take good care of your mother, so she accidentally fell and broke her leg. Please don’t hold it against me...”When Claire heard this, she quickly said, “Aunt, please don’t say that. My mother’s leg can also be considered an old problem. It has already been broken a few times before, so she might be a little vulnerable to injury. Therefore, I c
The wealth of the Rothschild family had long been beyond the estimation or calculation of outsiders. Over the years, they had made both visible and hidden investments in countless fields. All offshore companies registered in the Cayman Islands and the British Virgin Islands, as long as they remained unlisted, were not required to disclose shareholder information. Among them were numerous companies in which the Rothschild family held shares or even controls. The true value of these holdings was impossible to verify. Even for listed companies, shareholder information was only disclosed in the primary market. The secondary market was bought and held through various channels that were impossible to count. In addition, the Rothschild family had investments in real estate, energy, mining, transportation, and other areas around the world. It could be said that any industry that was at the forefront of the trend could make enormous wealth. In colonial times, Britain was known as the em
Since both Harrison and Helena had reached an agreement, Helena took out a pen and amended the details of the contract. The whole process was recorded, and coupled with Helena's identity as the Nordic Queen and the high traffic on the internet, she was not at all worried that Harrison would go back on his word. After the two sides agreed on the terms of the contract, Harrison wrote his name on the contract, and then the two sides exchanged agreements, and the contract was officially in effect. After everything was settled, Helena put the contract away, turned off the video recording on her phone, and beamed, "It's been a pleasure working together, Mr. Rothschild!" Harrison hastily asked, "Y-Your Majesty, can you please give me the pill now?" "Of course." Helena handed him the pill swiftly and said, "Even though my family doesn't have a lot of money, we always attach great importance to the spirit of the contract." Harrison stretched out his trembling hand and took the pill.
Helena said, "Mr. Harrison, your family is involved in almost all of the institutions that are major shareholders of Nvidia, and you also hold a lot of floating shares in the secondary market. You got these shares very early, and the chips were very low. As Nvidia's stock price has gone up to over 1 trillion, you have made a lot of money." Harrison had just breathed a sigh of relief when he received a concession of 10 billion, so when Helena started to talk about his past, he quickly explained, "Business is business... Whatever we earn from Nvidia shouldn't be mixed with this matter, w-w-wouldn't you agree, Your Majesty?" "Agreed." Helena nodded. "However, since I'm granting you a hundred billion in hardware costs, this absolutely ties back to Nvidia. You'll ultimately need to procure the AI model hardware through them, and as a shareholder, any bulk orders from Nvidia will effectively be you moving money from one hand to the other." "First, even if the listed cost is a hundred b
Helena was not afflicted by Harrison's annoyance. She said lightly, "Calm down, Mr. Harrison. I haven't finished." After a short pause, she continued, "I want your model for my own use, not for any commercial use, which means it will have no impact on your original market. I just want a completely identical replica for my own use. For you, it's nothing more than giving me a copy, a set of hardware, and twenty years of maintenance fee. That shouldn't cost much, right?" "H-How can I be sure that y-you won't use it for commercial purposes?" Helena smiled and said, "That's the specific detail I'll talk about next. You will still pay me 100 billion dollars, but I will sign a contract with you stating that 50 billion dollars of that will be returned to you at the rate of 2.5 billion dollars per year for the next 20 years. "If you stop upgrading and maintaining the model, I will stop the subsequent return of the money." "If I use your AI model for commercial purposes, you can immedi
Helena added, "In fact, Mr. Rothschild, if you were willing to sacrifice yourself for the family's sake, you could save this money and allow it to contribute to the future development of the family. Who knows—perhaps your descendants would even build a monument in your honor." Feeling a sharp pain in his abdomen, Harrison covered his stomach and waved her off. "Alright, t-that's enough. Since it's a deal, y-you name your price, a-and I can negotiate, so let me give you... a one-and-done price." With that, he held up five fingers, resolutely declaring, "50 billion dollars! Not a penny more! Any more, and even if I regain my health, I'll feel miserable. Just thinking about spending hundreds of billions on a single pill might ruin my happiness in old age." The thought of spending hundreds of billions of dollars on a single pill genuinely pained Harrison. Some people, even without money, still acted generous. But some, when they had wealth, became increasingly stingy. Some believ
Harrison initially thought that 100 million dollars was already an astronomical figure and that offering this amount would sufficiently demonstrate his sincerity. However, he never expected that Helena, upon hearing this offer, couldn't even be bothered to negotiate and would turn to leave. He had just felt the tangible effects of the medicine. If one-tenth had such an impact, taking a whole pill would undoubtedly restore him to his former self. He couldn't afford to miss this rare opportunity. So, he quickly called out, "Your Majesty! Whatever the matter is, we can discuss it, b-but why are you leaving?" Helena explained lightly, "I have never liked to negotiate partnerships with ignorant people. If you believe your health is worth only 100 million dollars, then, frankly, what is there left for me to discuss with you? Although I may not have as much money as you, in my view, my health is certainly worth more than that amount." Harrison was rendered speechless. He hadn't ex
Helena didn't give Harrison a chance to resist. She pinched his cheeks on both sides, forcing his mouth to open. Then, she poured the water containing the dissolved Healing Pill directly into his mouth. Harrison was so scared that the blood drained from his face. He wanted to kick and struggle, but he was trembling profusely and couldn't do anything. The thought of Helena trying to poison him gave him a chill to the marrow. He wanted to spit out the water, but Helena didn't give him a chance. While the water was still in his mouth, she threw the glass aside with her other hand, grabbed his chin, and lifted it up, snarling, "Drink it!" The moment Harrison's chin was lifted, his esophagus directly opened. The water, which was not much, went straight down his esophagus into his stomach, and he literally drank it. Harrison's eyes were full of fear at this moment. He thought that he might not even have time to say goodbye before he died. The next second, when he felt a different k
Harrison scoffed when he heard Helena's suggestion. He snapped angrily, "I-I-I have the best medical team in the world, and t-they don't even dare say such a thing. W-Who do you think you are?!" Helena smirked and replied, "Your team can't cure you, but I can." With that, she took out the Healing Pill that Charlie had given her from her purse and said to Harrison, "This pill comes from the ancient and mysterious East. Once you take it, you'll be restored to your former self. To alleviate your concerns, I can let you take one-tenth of it for free before we discuss terms so that you can truly feel its effectiveness. After that, we can discuss the pricing." Harrison, without any hesitation, disdainfully replied, "I-I would never b-b-believe in such a r-ridiculous pill! T-T-This b-bullshit has no scientific ba-a-asis at all!" Helena sneered contemptuously, "If you believe in science so much, why are you afraid of the Qing Eliminating Society? Can they possibly be a match for your
Helena pursed her lips, looked at Harrison, and then looked at Julien, pretending to be hesitant to speak. Despite his paralyzed body, Harrison was still as sly and smart as ever, so he looked at Julien and said, "Julien, clear the room. I want to talk to Her Majesty alone." Knowing that Harrison was trying to give him a boost, Julien immediately said, "Okay, Dad!" After that, he quickly asked the doctor to leave. Before leaving, he turned and said to Harrison, "Dad, you have all the time in the world. Please have a nice chat with Her Majesty. I'll ask everyone to keep a distance of 20 meters from the room. Please rest assured." Harrison nodded in satisfaction and flicked in the air at him twice, motioning for him to leave. Julien gleefully closed the door and promptly urged everyone to stay 20 meters away from the room, including himself. Seeing that the room was clear, Helena cut to the chase. As she looked at Harrison on the bed, she stated, "Mr. Harrison, the main reaso
