Hall and Helena chatted for a long time, and then went to the cellar to get two bottles of wine and found Cheng Chen for a long talk.

The two chatted alone for a long time, until the twilight covered the sky, and Aunt Caroline stood guard outside the study door the whole time.

Afterwards, Hall was drunkenly helped back to the bedroom, and Cheng Chen calmly walked out of the study on his own to discuss art with Helena.

However, the former did not understand why it could become a must-have item for European and American literary youth, and the latter could not understand why 'Li Du' was a classic, and the topic was forced to switch from art to fashion......

So the next morning, at breakfast, Hall saw the three women at the table getting along well and chatting about street sweeping and shopping.

"I'm such a genius, and you've proven how right my decision to invest in a clothing brand is." He looked haggard and sat down for attention.

Helena smiled apologetically: "Why don't you walk without sound, how was your rest last night?" ”

"Great, if only I could have a bowl of fillet porridge from a tea restaurant in London's Chinatown." Hall rubbed his temples and swallowed.

When I returned to the UK, I couldn't bear it after three days of drunkenness and three nights, and I was drunk by friends and employees of the European Association, and it hurt the most when I singled out Cheng Chen last night.

He still took pity on the fragrance and cherished the jade before, and he couldn't bear to let the little girl block the wine.

Thinking of this, Hall glared and slapped the table: "Go, cook porridge for me, white rice porridge is fine, you said you would cook last night!" ”

Cheng Chen blushed embarrassedly, and knew that he was at a loss, so he got up and walked towards the restaurant.

Aunt Caroline shrugged her shoulders when she saw this, threw a reproachful look at him, picked up two breakfasts and followed Cheng Chen's footsteps and left.

"Hugo, what are you doing?" Helenadette frowned slightly.

Hall hurriedly put up a smile and explained that he had been in the barbaric land of America for a long time, and he had forgotten to pay attention to etiquette when he just came home, and he still needed his mother's earnest teachings at all times.

Helena was almost laughed at angrily, knowing that he was but couldn't preach, and said tactfully: "Hugo, I have to say that your accent is indeed a little affected by American pronunciation." ”

"I'll take notice."

Hall nodded obediently, and secretly said in his heart that Cheng Chen also told me that you don't understand your accent.

He glanced at the kitchen and coughed lightly to change the subject: "Get rid of all traces of her background check." ”

"Don't think about it for a while? I said last night, no one can force you to do anything. Helena emphasized with a serious expression.

Hall smiled: "Mom, do you know that many people on Wall Street called my operation in that merger and acquisition of the century a '-stirring stick'...... Uh, sorry, I shouldn't have sweared, but I'm proud of it, because there are so many more people who call England that...... England's empire on which the sun never sets requires precise and courageous speculation, and so does your son. ”

Helena was silent for a moment, not asking what he had talked about with the Chinese girl last night, but corrected solemnly: "No, not speculation, but a long-term investment." ”

Thinking back to the conversation that took place in the study last night, Hall was noncommittal.

This year, he has made a lot of long-term layouts, and near the end of the year, this one is far better than before in terms of time.

Helena skimmed the topic lightly and asked, "Are there any plans for the next vacation?" ”

“…… emm not at the moment. ”

Hall thought about it for a while, there was nothing important to do except wait for Gagosian to come to visit and interview in a few days.

Now that the administrative agencies are about to shut down, families with conditions will basically choose to travel abroad before Christmas.

Isabella's family goes skiing in the Alps; Charlotte's family goes to Iceland to drill a thousand-year-old ice cave; Even Brandon, who was in Los Angeles and was busy plotting for a cAA agency, wanted to take a few precious vacations to Cuba to experience the taste of cigars rubbed at the thighs of girls.

As for families without conditions...... Although Master Hall never cared about whether he had money or not, it was difficult to get into his social space without money......

Helena looked her son up and down: "You haven't made clothes this year, make an appointment to ask a costumer to measure the size, you seem to have grown a few centimeters taller." ”

"187, it shouldn't be any longer."

Hall is a little worried, he will be 18 years old after this year, and it stands to reason that he will not develop again, otherwise he will be a little too tall.

Helena asked, "How are you going to spend your birthday this year?" ”

"Let's go to Sweden and see the Northern Lights." Hall suggested.

Because he went to New York on a business trip at the end of last year, Helena couldn't travel on vacation, and it seems that the mother and son haven't traveled together for a long time.

Helena raised her eyebrows in surprise: "This is your 18th birthday, the Queen's chamberlain has sent an invitation, hoping to hold a coming-of-age ceremony for you at Westminster Abbey next year a week after the Queen's June birthday celebration, as a birthday gift from the royal family." ”

"It sounds like an exaggeration." Hall was surprised.

He held a small coming-of-age ceremony at the age of sixteen, listening to the family history in the Hall family's cemetery.

Westminster Abbey is the designated venue for the coronation of kings and royal weddings, where the urns of royal ancestors are buried, and the coming-of-age ceremony is prepared half a year in advance, and it is close to the queen's birthday, which is too grand.

Helena smiled and explained, "This is the will of most of the Earl Byron, the inheritance. Of course, your will is more important. ”

"Thank you for me, the Queen, and maybe I should go to Buckingham Palace in person to express my gratitude." Hall did not hesitate to refuse.

The aristocratic lords don't have a good life for the elderly, and they have to pretend to be big at every turn, and when the time comes, he should shout "glory to the nobility" or "glory to England" at the coming-of-age ceremony?

The queen represents both nobility and the United Kingdom, and he is not qualified to represent the United Kingdom and inherit a hair.

This matter does not affect the overall situation, but the face is not good-looking, a bit of a monkey and crown, and the nobles are going crazy if they are eager to recast the glory.

Helena shook her head with a smile on her lips: "Do you remember Elland Road Stadium?" ”

"I remember Leeds City Council taking the lead in the redevelopment and my family was involved."

Hall wanted to buy back Elland Road, only to hear that Leeds City Council were going to raise £150 million to redevelop it, and then there was no follow-up.

Helena took a sip of coffee: "The development has been delayed, in fact, it has failed, and the Earl of Byron plans to buy it and give it to you as a birthday gift." ”

"That stadium costs three million pounds, right?!" Holden came to the spirit.

"Exactly, the after-tax transaction price is roughly around 3.2 million pounds."

"Uh...... Mom, you know me, I've never been good at saying no favors...... I'll have to think about it for a while. ”

"Elland Road Stadium or a bar mitzvah?"

Hall smirked shyly: "You have to think about it." ”

"Okay, you think about it slowly, I'm done."

Helena wiped the corners of her mouth with a smile, "Oh, by the way, I originally wanted to buy you a private jet as a birthday present, but you bought it yourself." So a change of yacht or something else, also think about it. ”
