Actually, saying Thomas Gath Jr. is wealthy isn't accurate. More accurately, Gath Jr. practically borrows money from the Rothschild Bank every month to make ends meet, but oddly enough, he never repays, and Rothschild never sends anyone to chase the bill.
Ledley can find this place, and Arthur naturally can manage the rest.
That very afternoon, he went to play a game of cricket with Lionel Rothschild and learned the reason from the young master himself.
Rothschild surely isn't running a charity, and they have no interest in aiding someone who seems to have no future.
It's not that they don't ask Gath Jr. for debts, but because every month someone else pays off Gath Jr.'s bill, and this person's identity is quite interesting because he's none other than Sir John Conroy, the Grand Steward of Kensington Palace.
Lionel had previously half-jokingly and half-probing inquired about why Conroy would support such a useless individual.
