Chapter 773: News-1

Suddenly, the unknown women smacked Delphina from behind because she kept glancing at the little girl. It was evident the other party was scared to face her.

" Stop it! Are you trying to scare away our guest?" She added.

"What? I didn't do anything. I just find it unusual that he took someone to experience life. Have you ever heard such a thing?" Delphina was genuinely curious about Nicole. There was no maliciousness in her eye, just curiosity.

" She has been with me since childhood. You could say that we grew up together so she could be considered by half wife." Samuel said with a smirk. Nicole was dumbfounded when she heard it but she immediately pinched his back to secretly protest.

" What?"

" I am just joking. She is my little maid. I hope you don't mind me bringing her together on this trip." He laughed out loud seeing expected reactions. If he wasn't under the promise of not exposing Nicole, he would confidently introduced her as his girlfriend!

" It's alright. I never knew that maid custom still existed in Rothschild family."

" It's a long standing tradition beside, it's good to take care of our own people since we have them to credit for managing most of the things around the house. There are many people who are second or even third generation living on the Estate." He gave a simple explanation. It's not like the family was forcing them, the benefits were just too good for them to refuse.

Delphina may came from a wealthy family but they didn't have rich history like those old giants. Such customs were common in upper aristocratic society, it's just it was not easy to meet them. Even if one did, they wouldn't necessarily be invited back to their family mansion.

" Suddenly, I am really interested what your home look like. I have been hearing praises from Maia and Paige."

" You are always invited. Who would dare to refuse such a request from a beautiful girl?" He said with a smile. Instead of blushing, Delphina only gave him a faint smile.

" This guy really can talk!" She thought.

" Okay, I will ask someone to make some mild tea."

" Young master, I can help." Nicole added.

" Just leave it to them. You are a guest not a maid." Sharon interjected before Samuel when she saw her get up.

" Do as she says. Don't feel bad about it. There will me more chances for you to serve me in the future." He whispered in her ear instantly making her blush from head to neck.

" I can see that you like to tease people." Sharon laughed seeing this blissful exchange. She could tell Samuel liked to play pranks and joke around with people. She actually like such unrestrained individuals!

" Coffee for me. I can't help it. I have been too busy recently. To be honest, I haven't had time to rest for a week now so I rely on this stuff to stay awake." Delphina on the other hand wasn't in good mood. She complained and muttered her grievances with a sigh.

" It's not good to throw your life away in work. Rest in important how else would we be able to work without it?" He objected. His words were a little harsh but it was for her own benefit.

Samuel didn't hide his lecturing tone in front of Sharon. He basically guessed that they must knew each other for a long time with how comfortable Delphina was sitting next to her, like a trusting friend.

" Sami, in the past few weeks. Many various branches are very unstable, even the stock price is showing signs of heavy transaction. Is it your doing?" She asked as soon as waiter delivered him a lemonade.

" Yes, I didn't know about it but when I called my subordinate they already knew about another party in the mix and had began to take action. When I informed them today, they sped up the process."

" It must be my brother. He also started his own series of acquisitions." She gritted her teeth when speaking about her brother. Their relationship had long been torn apart too damaged to even repair. He could see the contempt in her eye so he didn't mention anything.

He was a business partner not a family counselor. Normally, he would try to persuade her because in his eye family was the most important thing but judging from her atmosphere, there was no chance of reconciliation, it's either him or her!
