Chapter: 6031

Furthermore, simply leaving the sealed zone wasn't enough. No one could guarantee whether Rockefeller would secretly instruct these departments to expand their surveillance scope. The best approach was to find an opportunity and leave the United States directly.

As Leaf Chen thought about this, he asked Steve: "The Rockefeller family has many industries all over the world, and it's probably quite common for you guys to travel abroad. If your own family members need to leave the country at this moment, can't they avoid inspection?"

Steve hesitated before speaking: "My father's intention is to mobilize the entire family to find a four-leaf clover and put everything else on hold. In this situation, he probably won't let us leave the United States. Moreover, many core members of our family overseas have already started returning to the United States. After all, it concerns the succession of the patriarch's position, so no one wants to leave the United States at this time."

Leaf Chen shook his head, thinking that the possibility of using the Rockefeller family's influence to leave the United States was extremely low.

At that moment, he suddenly thought of Montreal in Canada, which was only about 300 kilometers away by straight line distance. He then turned to Steve and said: "If I'm not mistaken, our direct flight distance to Montreal should be less than 400 kilometers. Your helicopter can definitely fly there directly. What kind of situation would your father allow you to leave the United States immediately and go to Canada?"

Steve furrowed his brow and thought for a long time before shaking his head: "I couldn't think of any, we have some businesses in Montreal, but they're not significant, and our affairs in Canada are handled by my third brother. If anything happens, my father would definitely let him handle it instead of me."

At this moment, Lois suddenly spoke up: "Hey, Dad, the Queen of Norway, Helena, is coming to Canada next week for a visit. Grandpa reminded me earlier that I should try to develop some connections with her. If we wait until then and Helena arrives in Canada, I can just go see her, maybe she'll agree."

Steve hesitated and said, "Well, we'll have to wait until next week, and right now, it's a special situation. Will he let you go to Canada or not?"

Leaf asked curiously, "Why would Howard hope for his grandson to develop connections with the Queen of Norway? What is the strength of the Rockefeller family that they can make such a request?"

Steve explained, "You're unaware, sir. Although the Rockefeller family has strong influence in America, our reputation in Europe has never been very good. We've had deep cooperation with European royal families, but they never want to marry into our family. In the past two hundred years, we've made several requests to different royal families, but all were rejected."

Steve continued, "However, Helena's situation is special. Originally an abandoned child of the Norwegian royal family, she unexpectedly turned her fate around and directly ascended to the throne. Looking at the entire Europe, there is only one unmarried queen, Helena. For the Rockefeller family, if we can marry into a European royal family, Helena would be the highest-level one."

"Moreover, our think tank analyzed that Helena's character should be different from traditional European royalty. Her values are also likely to be very different. Other royal families, due to their traditional thinking, find it hard to accept marrying into the Rockefeller family, but Helena has discarded many traditions and has a higher acceptance rate."

"There is information showing that after Helena ascended to the throne, members of the Norwegian royal family had several discussions with her about future marriages. They hope she will follow royal tradition and seek out someone willing to marry into the Norwegian royal family and change their nationality to prince, and then bestow upon the other person a duke title, and their descendants can inherit the Norwegian throne."

"However, it seems Helena has deviated from the norm. She has explicitly stated to the royal family that she will not marry another royal member and has also explicitly stated that she prefers to pursue true love and get married if possible, or else she is willing to remain single for a lifetime."

Leaf nodded thoughtfully and opened his mouth to say, "If Helena sets off for Canada tonight, would your father actively request Royce to go immediately?"

"Leaf's words left Steve with a puzzled expression."

He said seriously, "Mr., Helena is the Queen of Norway, her visit to Canada is a relatively serious political event. This kind of thing usually has all arrangements made in advance. She originally planned to arrive in Canada on Friday next week, which is nine days from now. How could she possibly say that it's too early to go ahead and make arrangements?"

Leaf said quietly, "This doesn't concern you. You only need to answer my question."

Steve thought for a moment before speaking up, "My father wants Royce to get in touch with Helena. This was his idea several days ago. He expressed hope that Royce could represent the Rockefeller family when he gets there and establish a connection with Helena first, then look into the possibility of marriage if necessary. If Helena sticks to her original plan and arrives in Canada as scheduled, my father should ask Royce to go over immediately. However, this is a special situation now, and I'm not sure if he'll change his mind."

Leaf said, "I think he won't change his mind. On one hand, Helena's visit to Canada is an isolated event in his view, unrelated to any of the four treasures. On the other hand, Helena changed her itinerary unexpectedly, so my father might just request Royce to go to Canada, thinking that it's just a matter of finding someone else to take care of one of the four treasures, but it won't increase the risk of the four treasures leaving the United States."

He continued, "Moreover, the current public opinion pressure on our family is very great. Scandals are exposed one after another, and there is no way to turn things around for now. If we could somehow shift people's attention away from this issue, it would definitely be a harmless choice."

Steve sighed and said, "As you say, but we haven't had any communication with the Norwegian royal family yet, so we can't control Helena's schedule if she decides to come next week. If she sticks to her original plan, I think you should at least wait for several more days before going to Canada with Royce..."

For Steve, he didn't want Leaf and Royce to continue staying in the United States.

Royce is a time bomb that can explode at any moment. As long as it's still in the United States and not under his control, his life safety is always threatened.

Moreover, he is now trapped by Leaf. He can only leave if he leaves Leaf behind, which would put his life at risk. JrNovels.com
