The two went back to school, and Rachel went straight back to her dorm room.
When Rachel entered the room, her roommates’ expressions turned tense but envious.
They were all scholars, but now there was a huge difference between them. The fact that Rachel could have dinner with Steve Rothschild meant that she was already connected to the core of the Rothschild family.
This is a very difficult task for a scholar who cannot possibly have 100% white ancestry.
Rachel has made those connections today, making her the most accomplished among these Western scholars.
Rachel felt a sense of pride as she faced her colleagues, not only because she had interacted with Steve Rothschild today, but more importantly, because she had seized the opportunity to change her fate.
He ignored everyone and headed straight for his dorm room. Before entering, he said without turning around, “I want to call home. Don’t bother me.”
The three men’s expressions stiffened, and they nodded repeatedly in agreement.
After entering the room, Rachel closed the door and took out her cell phone to call her mother.
Meanwhile, Rachel’s mother anxiously waits at her home in Miami.
Long before Rachel went to the banquet, she had already reported the news to the Left Army Commander’s Office. The Left Army Commander’s Office was very happy about this. They knew that Robert’s status in the Rothschild family was much lower, but they did not show any disgust before. After all, being born with the name Rothschild is already a sign of being a superior person in the Western world. If Rachel could marry him, the Left Army Commander’s Office would gain Victoria’s praise.
Additionally, today we have Steve Rothschild.
If this could truly improve relations, the Left Army’s Supreme Commander’s Office would make a great contribution.
Therefore, the Left Army Commander’s Office also wanted to know the entire process of Rachel and Steve’s meeting, including Steve’s motives for looking for Robert, and what they discussed.
Since Rachel and Robert started dating, Rachel’s love life has been completely handled by a team of experts from the Left Army Commander’s Office. They not only had to analyze all the information about Robert, but also provide direction and guidance to Rachel for her next steps based on every detail of Robert’s relationship with Rachel.
Rachel also developed the habit of providing a report after each meeting with Robert.
He made an encrypted call to his mother, who asked with great concern, “Rachel, what progress or discoveries have you made tonight? Tell me briefly, the Governor’s Mansion is waiting for my report!”
Rachel knew that this encrypted telephone line was the private line of the Breaking the Qing Society. On the one hand, it is indeed very difficult for outsiders to hack or eavesdrop. On the other hand, the data of the entire channel was forwarded by the Breaking the Qing Society’s own servers. They know all the call information clearly. In fact, the Left Army Governor’s Office was most likely listening to this call simultaneously.
Rachel took a deep breath and said happily, “Mom, Steve Rothschild met Robert this time to guide him, perhaps to help him become the heir of this bloodline in the future, and then strengthen cooperation with the core family!”
“Is it true?!” Rachel’s mother immediately perked up. This meant that his future son-in-law had been favored by the Crown Prince and would be cultivated into his own loyal troops. It doesn’t get any better than this.
She exclaimed happily, “That’s great! Robert’s future is limitless! You must do your best to maintain your relationship!”
Rachel immediately reassured her mother, “Mom, don’t worry, I will definitely do it! Oh, by the way, Mom, I accidentally heard a bit of gossip while listening to their conversation!”
The mother immediately pressed, “What rumors? Are the rumors good for His Majesty?”
Even though most of the members of the Qing Destruction Group had never seen the Great Sovereign or even known his name, the top-down indoctrination they received was very effective. Everyone talks about serving the Great Sovereign. Therefore, whether this matter would help the Qing Destroyer Group depended on whether becoming a Great Sovereign would be beneficial.
Rachel explained, “Steve said they were planning to increase tensions in the Strait of Hormuz to further push up international oil prices, with the intention of selling at their peak and making a profit. I think considering their size, this kind of maneuver should be quite clever. International oil prices will probably reach new highs soon, and once they sell at their peak, prices will quickly fall back down. His Majesty has a lot of shale oil assets in North America; if he takes advantage of this opportunity, he should be able to make even more profits!”
