Chapter 216
As soon as Jonathan and Estelle left the Jarvis family, word that they had gotten the earrings reached Baldrick’s ears.
Baldrick, who was lying in bed recuperating from his injuries, immediately sat up in disbelief, exclaiming, ‘How is that possible?”
Just yesterday, despite his head injury, he personally visited the Jarvis family with Winnie, but he didn’t even get to see Old Mr. Jarvis
Despite he mentioning his grandfather’s reputation, the elderly butter calmly served him a cup of tea Politely, the butler explained that Old Mr. Jarvis was unwell and couldn’t receive any visitors to prevent the spread of his illness
Baldrick entrusted the old butler with a message, expressing their willingness to purchase the earrings at any cost if Old Mr. Jarvis was willing to sell it. However, he acknowledged that even with the offer, they might still be unable to acquire the earrings.
Baldrick was currently asking his friends in C City to find a middleman, but he found out that the earrings had been bought by Jonathan
The question was, how did Jonathan know the earnings was in the Jarvis family’s possession?
Winnie found out through her friend in the Cultural Relics Bureau, so how did Jonathan get the news?
Baldrick’s trusted assistant speculated, “Could Miss Winnie have told Ms Macclain? They seem to have a good relationship.”
Baldrick thought for a moment, shook his head, and said. “Winnie isn’t that stupid. She’s been with me for so many years and knows the rules.”
He had already lost out on the earrings and needed to think of another plan quickly!
The assistant worriedly said, “Since Jonathan knows about the earrings, he must also know that you went looking for the earrings without telling him. Would he harbor any ill feelings towards you?”
“At this point, do we have time to worry about that?” Baldrick sneered, a glint in his eyes. He whispered, “Get the banquet ready and invite Krus over for a meal* The assistant asked. “Won’t inviting Krus by himself, without Schilder, cause any misunderstandings?”
“No” Baldrick confidently said, “It’s normal for Krus to be in charge of some collaborations, and our dealings with each other make sense
Since Baldrick himself couldn’t drink, he had Winnie drink with Krus.
Winnie saw Baldrick give her a signal and picked up the wine bottle to pour a drink for Krus, saying, “Mr. Krus, if you’re available, you should visit our B City. It’s a completely different place from C City, and I guarantee you’ll love it.”
