Chapter 217


    Winnie’splexion turned slightly pale as she nodded and ascended the stairs with a sluggish gait. W


    ith 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 ot


    hers 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 be


    fore. He locked 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 go


    od 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 le


    aned in with an intelligent look in his eyes. He whispered with a smile, “Our Anderson family can cooper


    ate 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, y


    ou 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 bi


    g 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 yourse!!!”


    “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 sessful, then he left the vi


    Estelle and Jonathan received a message from Winnie on


    their way back to the manor asking her toe 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 Win


    nie first and then send the earrings to Mrs. Macy


    Jonathan casually asked, “What did she want with you?”


    “I dont know, I asked her, but she didn’t reply. I’ll go see her”


    Jonathan nodded and said, ‘I’ll have Mird go with you!


    Estelle nodded and took Mird to find Winnie.


    When they arrived at Baldrick’s vi, Estelle asked Mird to wait outside, and she went in alone


    There was no one in the living room on the first floor, even the maid seemed to have disappeared Estel


    le was confused and called Winnie, but there was no answer even after a long time.


    Suddenly, Estelle heard some noise upstairs. Walking up the stairs, she immediately rushed in when sh


    e heard Winnie’s scream:


    Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.


    “Please don’t touch me!‘


    “Get away, get off!”


    Estelle was shocked when she saw the scene inside the room.


    In the room, Winnie was being pressed down onto the bed by a tall man, her clothes had been torn off,


    and she was struggling desperately, trying to escape time and time again, but she kept being dragged


    back and thrown onto the bed by the man


    And that man who was forcing her was Schilder’s butler, Krus.


    At this moment, Estelle was very calm. She was wondering if this was


    a ploy by Winnie and Baldrick, letting Winnie get her over here to see Winnieforcefully bearing the sexu


    al harrassment from Krus. If she rashly stopped them, the man would definitely be angry and hold a gru


    dge, which might directly affect Jonathan and Schilder’s cooperation.


    With Baldrick’s character, this kind of thing is not impossible!
