In the morning, Samuel came downstairs with sleepy eyes; even his regenerative ability could not counter his lack of sleep. He hardly slept these past few days. Arthur was already waiting for his breakfast.
"Morning, Grandpa Arthur, you still haven't left yet?"
" Why do you require more alone time with your girlfriends?" Arthur gave a sly response.
" What- where did that come from?" Samuel almost jumped out of his seat, hearing it. If the old man knew about it, his family must know about it!
" Well, young master, you are famous again." Arthur smiled and handed over several newspapers. By this time, Samuel felt the deja vu as he picked up " Wall street times" to read.
The newspaper used ample space to report Samuel's speech at the Armani press conference last night. Unlike their previous sleazy article, this was primarily positive.
" Young master, the master has also spoken about this," Arthur said.
"What did my father say?" Samuel asked.
"Master said that's what you should say; you don't have to worry about any fallout as he is your strongest backer." Having his father as his support meant a lot to him.
He felt warm after hearing it. His father's unconditional support made many sinister entities wanting to capitalize on it shut their mouths completely.

Maybe because of Samuel's distinctive looks or his support of a fellow damsel in distress, he was trending in Asia. South Korean news was especially heated, with several dedicated shows mentioning his background and chivalrous nature.
This was also the first time these people had heard about Samuel Rothschild.
After sending the girls home, he forgot to check his phone because he was pretty tired. Since coming down, he was getting the ominous feeling that something was horribly wrong. After the meal, his gut feeling came true as Arthur informed him about it.
"Young master, madam also called you last night, but you didn't answer. She hopes you will call back as soon as possible." He reminded.
Well, did mother call last night? I never heard the ringtone. Samuel thought while remembering he turned his phone on silent before sleeping.
He went back into his room and took out his phone to look.
Shit! 81 missed calls and more than 100 text messages! He was baffled. Just like a few days ago, he forgot to keep his promise, but it's not like he was gone for a few days. It's only been a few hours of no contact, so what was happening?
A missed call and a text message from mother.
The message read: This was the work that you have been doing these past few days. I suddenly know why you don't want to come back home. It turns out you not only have one but two girlfriends already!
Okay, this was not his mother but the demoness talking! He had to be careful of how he would respond. He jumped to the next caller.
Rosaline missed a call and two text messages at 3:00 in the morning.
SMS 1: Are you home?
SMS content 2: Are you asleep?
Liliana only left one message asking if I had arrived home safely. He felt fuzzy looking at them caring about him. He wanted to call them this instance, but he held himself back.
It was Darren next, who made two missed calls and a text message.
Text message content: Fuck, bro, you have become a god. I will catch you when you tomorrow; we have to celebrate your brand deal as well as hang out with my sisters-in-law!
Such ridiculous texts, It's not like he didn't invite him, but a small party didn't sound so bad.
Samuel gulped at the subsequent missed calls and text messages, looking at their names. He knew he had to face them one way or the other; the media might have captured his overly 'friendly' gestures with the girls during the dinner party.
He might have gone excessively with his PDA sessions, but it was not his fault! They were too alluring to pass on such an opportunity.
First, Iblis had eighteen missed calls, Maia Hopson twelve cut calls, Nicole nine missed calls, and the remaining thirty-two were all from Paige. He hoped to get some calls from Adele, but there were none!
Paige's call started at 11 o'clock last night and ended at 9 this morning without interruption!
The text message folder was even more terrible! He was fearful to look at them, but he knew ignoring them would bring more pain in the future.
Iblis: Sami, I think you owe me an explanation. I don't care how long it takes; I will forever wait for your call!
Maia: Hehe, Samuel, have you forgotten your previous promise to me! You promised to marry me!
Samuel vaguely recalled when they forced him to play house; that was the beginning. During a wealthy people gathering, they separated the kids while Samuel was brilliant and intelligent for his age. He was still thirteen at that time.
Surprisingly, she took it at face value; she was only his pretend wife!
Nicole: Sam, you promised me I would be your bride when I grow up. You won't regret it, will you?
It was only because you were quarrelling with your big sister! She was only nine, and he said it to make them stop; she was such a cute girl back then; what the hell happened!
As for Paige, he admitted his mistake. They may have broken some laws and hypothetically got drunk on red wine. But how come a drunken confession could be taken into account? Didn't the country has laws to protect its people?
He jumped to her last text and noticed a pair of scissors; what did she mean by those scissors? Did Paige send them by mistake?
Samuel was panicking; he knew it would be bad but never expected such a fallout! He first decided to pay his respect to the eternal demoness.
"Hey, mother, it's me." He started casually.
"Oh, look who showed up. Is my baby doing okay?"
" Mother, I am so sorry. I had it on silent; it was a wild night. Didn't I tell you about the endorsement deal?"
"I know what type of work you have been up to. But leave it. Did the four beauties call yet?" Samuel was perplexed; his mother knew everything!
"Mother, Samuel Rothschild, I am fully independent and solely responsible for my every action." Samuel was blabbering, but his mother cut him off in the middle.
"Brilliant, I am proud of you, but are you serious, those two sweethearts?"
"I am getting along great with them. Also, didn't you teach me to not hurt a girl's feelings? I am only following your advice." It was the truth. Also, implicating his mother with a stretched-out version would make things easier for him.
" Is that so? Whatever you are up to, I will leave it to you to decide. Of course, if you get into any trouble, you have to fend for yourself! But before that, if you can bring them home, I would like to meet them."
Mother, did you really care about me? I could be stabbed the next day. Are you going to be okay with it? Samuel wanted to complain but held it back. But the thought of introducing Liliana and Rosaline to his mother scared him.
"By the way, you may have an unexpected surprise today." His mother said something out of the blue. Why was the tone of the demoness a little strange? Was it just my imagination?
In the end, Samuel left everything up to god; he was hopeful that the storm would pass as he would ignore the four girls for now. They had their own lives; it was not possible for them to drop in on him, right?
He didn't know, but he just jinxed himself!
