Chapter: 6535

Steve looked helpless and didn't say much more, so he opened his mouth: "Okay, Father, I'll listen to you."

Just as they were speaking, Helenna, dressed in a elegant outfit, walked in with the old queen's accompaniment.

The father-son duo immediately stopped talking and stood up together.

Helenna smiled and said, "You two don't need to be so formal, please sit down already."

They sat back down, and Howard couldn't help but speak up: "Your Majesty, now that our cooperation has basically been completed, I'm not sure if there's anything else you need me to take care of here. Please instruct me, and after completing my tasks, I'll head back to New York for some matters, then come back to Europe to develop a new round of investments."

Howard said it in a subtle way, but Helenna could easily pick up the underlying meaning - he was asking when he could fulfill his promise and return to New York as soon as possible.

So Helenna smiled: "I don't have any other requirements here. Mr. Rothschild, if you need to go back to America, you can leave tomorrow."

Howard heard this and felt a surge of joy in his heart, thinking that Helenna must be serious about fulfilling her promise, but then he was immediately filled with uncertainty - what if she meant it literally, letting him leave tomorrow without mentioning anything about the elixir?

Just as Howard was trying to gauge Helenna's intentions and not answer too hastily, she spoke up: "Oh, Howard, please set aside some time after dinner. There are some matters related to our previous cooperation that I need to discuss with you again. It won't take up too much of your time - probably just 10-15 minutes. You should be fine, right?"

Howard heard this and was immediately excited, nodding his head enthusiastically: "Fine, fine!"

"Oh, that's fine." Helenna nodded her head and smiled: "I'll just bother Mr. Stevens to wait for a moment; after dinner is over, you two can go back to collect your luggage and prepare to return to America."

Stevens respectfully nodded his head and said: "Everything will be carried out according to Her Majesty's instructions."

Howard on the side was filled with excitement, thinking that half a elixir was about to fall into his hands, which would allow him to pull back his lifespan and physical state.

Stevens noticed the difference in his father's expression and thought to himself: "I've seen this old man go through so much, even if he has a lot of money, it's not enough to spend it all; only Ye Chen's elixir could make him so excited and erratic... I'm sure Ye Chen must have promised Helenna to give the elixir to my father, and I reckon Helenna will give it to him soon..."

Thinking about this, Stevens felt increasingly uneasy, wondering when he would be able to inherit if his father still got other elixirs. He probably had to wait a few more years.

Stevens couldn't help but think back to Ye Chen's warning earlier: the elixir could delay or accelerate his father's retirement, depending on who held it.

If Ye Chen could cut off the supply of elixir to his father and give it to him instead, he could use it as leverage to demand that his father step down earlier, since with age, the balance between power and lifespan would continue to tip towards mortality. Once the scales were upset, letting go of power was not impossible.

Therefore, Stevens couldn't help but sigh inwardly: "Whether I can become the head of the Rockefellers' family in the future is all up to Ye Chen's mood!"

Helena and Rockefeller's patriarch concluded their dinner, while Ye Chen and Lin Wan'er also returned to the palace. Lee Yalin and An Kai Feng remained at the data center, where Lee was exchanging with technical personnel on how to set up a complex filter rule for an AI model, which would then search for corporate information globally, aiming to compile a list of companies that could potentially accommodate a dead soldier's garrison, and then gradually apply exclusion criteria to narrow down the scope.

Ye Chen didn't understand technology or how to operate AI to perform complex calculations and simulations, so he left it to professionals while he focused on arranging for someone to help him resolve issues with automatic vending machines. It wouldn't be long before all vending machines around the world would upload massive video materials to the AI model, allowing them to track Wu Feiyan's personal activities.

Once Wu Feiyan appears, she won't just be a single person; instead, it will bring a chain of clues that could lead to more information related to the White Lotus Society. Ye Chen knew her flight usually took off and landed in Argentina, and her base was likely not far from there. She would probably use Argentina as a relay point for her transcontinental flights, so when he had full control over the entire Argentine airfield, her whereabouts would be at his fingertips.

Ye Chen returned to the palace, where the butler promptly reported back to Helena.

Helena then told Rockefeller's two sons, "Wait a moment, I have some business to attend to." She stood up and walked out of the banquet hall with elegance.

Helena made her way to Ye Chen's guest room, knocked lightly on the door, and saw him sitting in his living room. She quickly approached him and bowed, saying, "Mr. Ye, Rockefeller's patriarch is still at the banquet hall, eagerly waiting for half a pellet of elixir. He's already gone a bit crazy with anticipation."

Ye Chen nodded slightly, took out one pellet of blood clotting elixir, handed it to Helena, and reminded her, "Later, please bring him to the study, where you can take out the entire pellet in front of him. Remember, after he pays for it, you should then cut it open in front of him." JrNovels.com
