Chapter 269 Aliens Did It!



Although the Rothschilds could afford such a massive plane, they wouldn\'t use it as a personal jet; the upkeep needed to have it continuously flight ready was massive. And for a family that already had more than ten private planes and could afford to charter any aircraft from any airline in America at a moment\'s notice, it didn\'t make sense to buy them.

The landing was as smooth as it was in Eden, and the unloading proceeded apace. Rina disembarked the plane, got in one of the cars, and left without wasting too much time. She even bypassed the security screening again, having already handled it at the immigration checkpoint at the airport in Eden. 

No Rothschild would ever have to stand in the long lines at immigration like normal people.

As the convoy was driving back to her house, she passed the location where the previous attack had taken place. Although everything had been taken away for the investigation, traces of yellow crime scene tape remained. Some people had even put flowers up at a makeshift memorial for those who\'d died there.

Although it had been more than a month since the attack, the case was still ongoing. Every time they found a piece of evidence, it would disprove one or more of the investigators\' theories. At this point, they were almost ready to throw their hands in the air and claim it was an alien attack just so the FBI agents could go home to their families for at least one night.

As they passed through, Rina was watching the news when a story attracted her attention and, after watching it, she found herself smiling.

"Moments ago, armed attackers, who were trying to rob what they thought was a secret bank, ended up assaulting a DARPA research facility. The attackers were apprehended by security after successfully entering the building...."

Rina immediately knew what the event they were talking about was without even having to watch the report any longer, so she turned off the satellite tv and returned to staring outside the window. She couldn\'t wait for the board meeting; anticipation had her almost as twitchy as an ant on a hot frying pan.

...

In the Rothschild compound, a board meeting was taking place with one of the chairs in the room empty, as if someone was supposed to be sitting there.

"I suggest we should invest in Eden, as, with the recent discovery of oil there, I suspect they\'ll discover more of it. It\'ll either be in Eden or Esparia, and I think it\'ll be within the next five months. If we invest now, we should be able to steal a march on the Morgans, who seem to have already invested in Esparia. Even if we don\'t count the military support they gave to that third world shithole during their playground spat, the Esparian government is still heavily indebted to them from the monetary support that went along with the materiel support for that joke of a conflict. 

"By investing now, we\'ll be flipping a middle finger to them, both financially and physically, and it would count as our first act of retaliation. Especially if we support Eden and help them discover as many resources in Esparia as possible within the remaining five months as stipulated in their surrender accord. Doing so would put us in the position to benefit from the Morgans\' losses, while they\'ll be unable to do anything of significance to stop us," said a board member, bringing up the topic of choosing when to invest in Eden and Esparia.

"It should also be easy for us, since Miss Rina seems to have already formed connections with the higher-ups of Eden. She\'ll be a suitable person to be responsible for our investments there, as she already has a foundation," said Hebel, inserting a plug for Rina, who wasn\'t in attendance.

"It seems like you people continue to forget your position, or has the quality of our branch families fallen so low?" Arieh entered the conversation when he saw the discussion turning in favor of Rina, who wasn\'t even there! Besides, it was coming from one of the people he knew had betrayed him and chosen her side, though secretly. That was the last straw, and he decided to cut through and start with a disrespectful remark. He didn\'t even care that the family head was in the room with them.

"What do you mean by that?" Hebel asked. He wouldn\'t take that insult without doing anything, so he asked for clarification to see if Arieh would take back his statement or not. That in itself would count as a humiliation for him, and if he decided to double down, it would provoke a reaction from the family head.

Arieh, knowing what Hebel meant by that question, didn\'t care and continued, "We\'re the fucking Rothschilds, and we get what we want no matter what! But we do it while maintaining our family\'s dignity. So how disrespectful is it when someone from the board is heard proposing we cooperate with some third world shithole like they\'re our equal? Are you that dumb, or is your self-esteem just that low? With countries of that level, we don\'t cooperate—we demand! They have no choice in the matter!" Arieh stared Hebel down.

"You\'re right about that, but don\'t you think you look like someone who just wants to flaunt his superiority when it isn\'t needed?" Hebel said. He didn\'t deny anything Arieh had said, as that would just make the meeting go off on a tangent and waste everyone\'s time.

"We need to create a first impression that won\'t allow any disrespectful behavior in the future," Arieh said. He was adamant that they go there with their noses in the sky.

"And how do you imagine that\'ll happen?" Uria cut in and asked.

"I think I\'m more suitable than my dear sister. Especially with my position in the family... I need to do something to return the favor of the Morgans, no?" Arieh said, finally revealing his fangs.

"I\'m against it. Everyone knows that Miss Rina is already established there, unlike you, who only discovered its existence when the news showed her being there. By which point, may I remind you, she seemed to have already established her channels of communication. So I think we should make her the point of contact for the relationship between Eden and us, as she discovered them first. I\'m sure she already has an idea on how to approach them and build business relationships," Uram said. He wanted to directly block Arieh from taking Rina\'s place and credit.

When Arieh had heard about her spending a month there, he couldn\'t help but smile. He knew that the month she had spent there wasn\'t because she was building some bullshit \'business relationship\' or anything, but because she was investigating the attack on her and was too afraid to come back. 

At least until she knew no more attempts would be made on her life, that is.

He was positive that she wouldn\'t call for help from the family, as that would be seen as a sign of weakness. It would also lower her value in the eyes of the board members. And as long as she didn\'t have any evidence backing her accusation of who her attacker was, no one would believe anything she said, let alone who she suspected, so she would be punished for accusing someone without evidence.

Although he was curious and angered by the disrespect Terry showed him by ignoring his calls, all of that rage had disappeared earlier when he received the news that Terry and Katrina had been arrested while attempting to rob a DARPA research facility. It seemed absurd to him, but he didn\'t care at all; he just called a few people to have them "commit suicide in their cells", as he didn\'t want the man to be brought back to the compound at all. That wouldn\'t be a good thing for Arieh, no matter the circumstances of the man\'s return.

But now that that had been handled, he could be said to be the most happy man in the compound. With a huge smile on his face, he said, "Her being there for more than a month and not even coming back for a meeting should be indication enough that she\'s struggling to establish relationships there. That\'s another reason I nominated myself for that position, as she\'s still inexperienced in the field of business." He was trying to paint Rina\'s absence from the meeting as incompetence and disrespect, seeking small gains at the cost of big losses in the competition between the siblings.

"You don\'t have to worry about that," came a cold voice as the door was opened and Rina entered the room. Her confidence gave Arieh a mild scare, as he had a hunch that things were about to go very, very wrong for him. But he didn\'t understand how, as he was positive that he had cleaned up after himself very well.

Rina walked around the table and took her seat while maintaining eye contact with her murderous brother.
