But even then, why didn't they know about Delphina and Samuel's situation? Even if Rothschilds were most powerful family in the world, she believed her family were at least were able to get some wind of the situation.

From how Delphina conducted herselves, it was evident that their partnership was not immediate. Not knowing the details was normal but Alexis believed not knowing they knew each other was a huge disaster for their intelligence group. These people took up a huge amount of constant investment, was it really worth it since Hermes were facing decline in recent years due to financial crisis.

What were they doing all day long? Bastards!

" Do you want to gloat? Is that why you called me here?" Alexis had already given up inside. If Delphina had Samuel's support, her own plans must have already been exposed. There was nothing to hide because she knew winner had already been decided!

" What are you talking about?" Delphina witness a chance in her tone. Previously Alexis acted high and mighty in front of her despite only showing respectful attire on the surface but now she looked like a beaten dog just after seeing Samuel. Delphina didn't know he was so effective!

" You already won. There is no need to continue with this facade." Alexis went straight to the point.

" We have plenty of time to talk. Before that, I want to know who this little girl is." Delphina stood up and welcome Samuel. He who was not paying attention to them finally notice when Elise took her signature position, right behind his leg hiding herself from strangers.

" This is Elise. She is a bit shy so don't scare her."

" What? Am I that scary? Little girl, do I look scary to you?" Delphina leaned in to talk to Elise but it further accelerated Elise's hiding away from her. Delphina was shocked, from her experience she did deal with few kids in the family but she thought she was popular but reality was they were scared of her.

" I am Delphina and this is Alexis. Don't worry we don't mind." Delphina said with a smile. Alexis looked at her with a dissatisfied glare, even if they mind would they dare to say anything to Samuel? That's just hitting themselves in the foot!

" A-are you a princess?" They didn't have time to respond before they were hit with another question from the little girl. Delphina was beautiful but Alexis stood out more, she had light brown hair and wore beautiful green dress for the meeting, she took her appearance very seriously which was why even though it was morning, she was dressed up gorgeously.

" Are you talking to me?" Alexis was surprised to say the least. No one ever asked her such a question before, looking at Samuel who was only smiling she didn't know what to say.

" I...don't know?"

" But...I saw some picture in the book. It looks like you."

" Elise, even if she is a princess she will hide her identity. Don't you know that evil people are always trying to kidnap them?"

" Oh." Hearing Samuel she seemed to have a revelation.

" I am sorry." She didn't say anything and came back to Samuel to say a whisper a few things in his ears. He tried hard not to laugh but Alexis could tell it was something about her.

" Alright, alright. I will remind her again. Look, they have arranged few snacks for you. Why don't you go and eat first, I will take care of everything." He patted her head again. She nodded heavily after his reassurance. She hopped away but not before reminding him again with," You must tell her Sami!"

" I will." Seeing her settle in a distance where people had already arranged a small table and chair along with a assortment of snacks, he was relieved. At least she wouldn't feel bored during their talk. He retracted his gaze to look at the girls again.
