    "A young man?" Mrs Balderston appeared interested.


    "Oscar Wells," Rowan called.


    Oscar moved nearer and bowed, respectfully.


    "This is Mrs Balderston," introduced Rowan.


    "I''ve long heard about your great name, Your Grace. I''m Oscar Wells, it''s my great honour to meet you


    here."


    Mrs Balderston watched him and said, "What an imposing man!"


    "Oscar is especially capable, and he must be a pir of Northfield in the future." Rowanughed.


    "Thank you for bringing up a talent." Mrs Balderston said.


    "Don''t mention it. It''s my duty to select and employ talented people."


    "I have great admiration for you. And you have recruited many talents for these years." Said Mrs


    Balderston.


    "Oh, Melvin," she turned to her son and said with reproach, "You should learn from Mr Collins. you''ve


    been doing your own business, and never discovered any talents for the country."


    Saying so, she indicated that the Balderston family had no ambitions to expand their strength.


    Rowan understood what she meant and said, "I don''t agree with your words. Melvin, as very young


    now, should put more energy into his undertaking. But for me, I''m in the autumn of life, so I should seek


    some talented people to assist with Melvin and Mathew."


    "Mr Collins, I admire you from the bottom of my heart." Mrs Balderston said and raised her ss in a


    toast to Rowan.


    "Thank you, I toast you." Rowan took up his ss.


    They began to drink, seemingly friendly. But everybody in the hall knew that there was always a


    struggle between the two families.


    On the other side, Manuel had already stolen into the Balderston manor while the banquet was


    underway. He took a long time to feel out the situation of the manor and spent an hour hacking the


    security monitoring system. But Melvin was rather careful, he had cut off thework in advance. So,


    what Manuel saw on the monitor was the historical videos, not the live ones. But Manuel still found the


    guard conditions. By calcting, he knew the blind areas and the best time to take action to rescue


    Hannah.


    This belongs to N?velDrama.Org - ?.


    It''s 6:00 PM, and after two hours of staking out, Manuel confirmed that Melvin arrived at the dining hall,


    and began to steal into his manor. The guards patrolled everywhere in there. But if one got the right


    point, they could still avoid being found.


    Manuel got into a blind area and remembered the time he had calcted in advance. He counted by


    heart, 1, 2, 3, and then he climbed the high wall. There were fences on the top of the wall, but Manuel


    wore an insting coat and gloves. Next, he jumped down from the wall, and huddled in the corner,


    quickly. At that moment, a guard walked past him. He could have been found even if just a second''s


    dy.


    Manuel was a bit nervous. He tried to maintain calm and imperturbable. Then he left the corner, quickly


    ran across to another corner, and hid. He needed to crush a guard stealthily, and put on the guard''s


    suit, to find Hannah more easily. After all, there were more guards in the centre of the manor. He


    concentrated his attention and waited for the guards.


    This was the only ce that only two guards patrolled, and Manuel had no more than three minutes to


    get all things done. He had only one chance, and he must seed. He was hearing the sound of


    footsteps, as he counted by heart, "Three, two, one."


    In a heartbeat, he covered the mouth of one guard, with the handkerchief moistened with ether. And


    then the guard fainted immediately. Manuel gripped the hand of another guard before he shot. The


    guard felt extreme pain and loosed his gun, and was about to cry when Manuel covered his mouth with


    the handkerchief.


    It took Manuel only ten seconds to get all this done. He pulled the guards into the grass and changed


    the suits of one of the guards.


    Exactly three minutester, another two guards came, and looked at Manuel, with vignt faces. "Why


    are you alone here? And where is your partner?" one guard said.


    "He''s in the toilet."


    "How dare he go to the toilet?" the guard said angrily.


    "Sir, he ate the medium rare steakst night." Another guard said.


    "I''ve always emphasized NO UNDERDONE FOOD when we''re engaged in a task." The guard shouted.


    Manuel and another guard didn''t speak.


    "I''ll get even with himter." The guard said coldly, and turned to Manuel, "Do your job!"


    "Yes, sir."


    One of the guards murmured, "The guy is unfamiliar to me, I think. Is he new here?"


    "Shut up! Concentrate your attention!" bawled another guard.


    The guard kept silent.


    Manuel maintained calm and went across to the other side of the manor. He met a lot of guards all the


    way. They wondered why this guard was patrolling alone, but they didn''t talk about it, as they had to


    keep silent when they were patrolling. Therefore, Manuel was safe all the way.


    Manuel took a deep breath as he got into the courtyard where Hannah was.


    He watched the historical videos of the courtyard. There was no monitor in Hannah''s room. So, Manuel


    could only see Hannah from the videos of the courtyard. He found she seemed to be the same as


    before. She was still calm and steady. But nobody knew what was behind Hannah''s appearance.


    Manuel thought the only thing he could do now was to rescue Hannah from the Balderston manor no


    matter what.
