" Hahaha, this is why I like you. No one ever dares to be this blunt with , but you don't have to worry about anything. Nothing will happen to you here." The Queen chuckled.
" I, too, always look forward to our etings." Samuel was obviously only joking, but it gave sufficient insight into her impenetrable poker face. He gathered that situation was salvageable.
" It was funny, but the stunt you pulled yesterday was not. I can't for the life of figure out why you were so stupid in your approach." She sighed. She had a certain understanding of Samuel and knew he was one of the most brilliant youngsters she had ever t. Which only made her wonder even more.
" So you know about my plans?" Samuel asked with a surprised face.
" Of course, I know about you. You and your intelligence organization are inferior to what this country has built for ages. When soone starts digging into a noble of this country, you best believe I know about it." She elaborated. It also ant she willingly transferred those files to him.
" I had my suspicions but thank you for confirming it. I was fairly confident this ti I could fly under your radar. It seems like there is much work to be done. But the question still remains why?" She was surprised that he was probing her for more information. Did this boy not have any fear?
" That's what I would like to know too. So people ca with few theories, but I like hearing them from the horse's mouth." She asked. Samuel told the whole story for a third ti today; he felt it would have been better to just record it and play it whenever soone asked for his reasons.
" It feels like she ans a lot to you. I also heard about the others; you know we banned it in this country?" She chuckled.
" Fear not, I am not trying to bring back a dieval age practice. It is also embarrassing to talk about my love affairs with my grandmother, so why don't you stop the information from flowing out?" It was his personal life, so she also dropped the subject. But the Queen liked her dramas which made it fairly certain she would be kept inford about the situation.
" Ok, as I told you. Modern power is dictated by information; while we are talking here now, soone sowhere in this country is trying to devise a plan to eavesdrop on this conversation. That's how vital it has beco; you should know that as an investor in several well-known social dia sites."
" Now you are just gloating." Samuel shrugged.
" Sotis I do wonder how you manage to surprise every year. You always seem to be in the right place at the right ti." She paused like she was confirming sothing before continuing.
" Moving on, as you very well know, I have tried to steer away from the traditional monarchy during my rule, and from the looks of it, I believe I have succeeded in achieving a few of my goals. For my failures, I have a certain degree of control over those deed harmful for aristocrats."
" In simpler words, you hold certain 'ans' to get you the 'end.' Was Charles getting out of hand?" Samuel asked.
" In a sense, yes, he is not very influential in the circle, but these powers coagulate, which in turn threatens the balance. It's a constant push and pull; sotis, I must move so pieces to maintain that structure. Giving you information was part of that plan."
" But you didn't anticipate that I would go public with it. Now both parties feel threatened and demand answers from the one on the top. Right?"
" Clever as always, I know the Rothschild family is influential, but even then, they are considered an outsider in these matters. They feel this is an attack and are asking for your intentions. It was very modest this ti, but certain secrets would tear apart this country if made public."
" I understand that I have put my family and in a predicant, but sotis I feel it is better to rebuild it than to patch a broken house." This was the biggest surprise that he had given her. She would laugh it off if soone else said it, but knowing Samuel's history, if this young boy put his mind to it, he could achieve it.
" Change takes ti. It's a slow process; look at ; I have gotten old and cannot see the horizon line of this arduous journey. I just hope you don't self-destruct chasing fictional demons." She could only warn him; the rest was up to him.
" Okay, so what should I do now?"
" Don't do anything. I will talk with them and tell them you don't intend to harm them. I believe the Earl will be more than eager to corroborate with . Just expect so friction in the future; as I said, change takes ti."
" As you wish. Will you be coming over for tomorrow's party?"
" No, but I will pass over an excellent gift for Greyson. You should go too; your friend must be waiting for you."
" Yes, I will visit so other ti under less stressful circumstances but don't hold my word for it."
" I won't."
After he left, she sat down while looking outside the window, seemingly lost in thought. It was not an easy solution as she had told him to be. She could only keep them at bay, but it was hard to predict as their powers were getting increasingly daunting each day.
She was also inford before this eting that Rothschilds were specially propped up in the dia for being the 'hero' in all this. Like soone was intently gearing the lilight toward them, especially Samuel. It was sufficient to say he got their attention.
It was only a matter of ti before they would co after him. She had to be ready when that happened. He was only a naive child who knew nothing about how this world worked. If they tried to nip the bud early, she would never know what type of miracles he would show her in the future.
