Baldrick's tone dropped a bit and said, "Go ahead!"
Winnie's complexion turned slightly pale as she nodded and ascended the stairs with a sluggish gait. With each step, her movements appeared burdened by a heavy weight.
As her figure disappeared around the corner of the staircase, Baldrick turned his attention to Krus and spoke earnestly, "Winnie is someone very dear to me. I am extremely protective of her, and I don't even like others gazing at her for too long. However, today I entrust her to you. Take good care of her, for her sake."
Krus leaned back in his chair, although he still appeared to be drunk, he was no longer as dazed as before. He looked indifferent and calm, and said, "Something has happened in Germany, so Mr. Schilder decided to shorten his trip to C Country. The contract is already being considered, and as long as I put in a few good words for you, he will agree soon."
Baldrick stood up and poured another cup of wine for Krus, put his hand on the back of the chair, and leaned in with an intelligent look in his eyes. He whispered with a smile, "Our Anderson family can cooperate with the Merck family alone. We have the strength to do it. If you can get Schilder to agree to sign a contract with me alone, you can go upstairs now!"
Krus thought for a moment and said, "I've been working for your will all along, I think it shouldn't be a big problem." He looked up and smiled.
"I believe you can do it." Baldrick stood up, smiling ingratiatingly, "Miss Winnie is already waiting for you in the room, enjoy yourself!"
"Thank you, Mr. Anderson, for your generosity!"
Krus spoke gentlemanly before turning around and walking upstairs.
Baldrick watched Krus's back, sneered, feeling like he was going to be successful, then he left the villa.
Estelle and Jonathan received a message from Winnie on their way back to the manor, asking her to come by around 2 pm.
She looked at the time, and it was already 2 pm.
Estelle asked Winnie what's going on, but Winnie didn't reply.
They arrived at the manor at 2:15 pm. Jonathan had some business, and Estelle decided to go see Winnie first and then send the earrings to Mrs. Macy.
