Chapter 185
Mrs. Macy exclaimed with surprise, “Really?”
Winnie nodded with a smile.
“Let’s go see it!” Mrs. Macy said something to Schilder and then happily left with Winnie
Not long after they left, a woman in a red suspender dress walked over, holding a drink in her hand, and said coquettishly, ‘Mr. Anderson, Mr. Macy!”
Baldrick immediately stood up and introduced her to Schilder, “This is Elena, she just sang that opera.”
Schilder’s eyes widened in amazement, “Elena, that was amazing!”
Elena Stone shyly smiled. “It’s my honor to sing for you, Mr. Macy.”
She took the opportunity to sit next to Schilder, “Mr. Macy, if there’s anything else you’d like to hear, I can sing it for you here.”
Baldrick grinned, Tm going to make a phone call. Can you take care of Mr. Macy for me, Elena?”
Elena smiled slightly, “Of course, Mr. Macy is my honored guest. Don’t worry, Mr. Anderson.”
Baldrick gave a satisfied smile, briefly greeted Schilder, and then left.
Inside the dimly lit, enclosed theater, only Schilder and Elena remained.
About ten minutes later, Baldrick saw Elena coming over as he was sitting on a wicker chair outside and smoking. He stood up and asked with a frown, “Why ar you coming out so soon?”
Elena frowned. “He said he didn’t want to listen to opera and only came because he was accompanying his wife. No matter how I hinted, he didn’t take the bait. sorry, Mr. Anderson, it looks like I can’t help you!”
Baldnck was surprised, but he put his arm around Elena’s shoulder, kissed her cheek, and smiled, “That’s okay. I wouldn’t want you to keep that German compan anyway.”
Elena playfully pushed Baldrick away and said, “Mr. Anderson, you always have such a sweet mouth.”
Baldrick smiled and said, “You can go now, we’ll be in touch later.”
Elena smiled, turned around, and sauntered away.
After finishing a cigarette, Baldrick went back to the tea room. Schilder was looking at his phone, and when he saw Baldrick enter, he gave a small smile, seeming unfazed
Baldrick sat down and sent a message to Winnie. Moments later, Winnie and Mrs. Macy returned to the tea room.
Around eleven o’clock, everyone went back to the manor.
In the car, Baldrick held Winnie and sneered, “That German, he’s such a cautious one. Even facing a beauty like Elena, he didn’t make a move. I underestimated him Winnie whispered softly, “Maybe we should find another way. Schilder and his wife seem to have a good relationship.”
Baldrick scoffed. “You don’t know men too well, do you? If he’s really devoted to his wife, why would his assistant be a young and beautiful woman from his own country?
He reached into Winnie’s collar and said, “It seems that Schilder is very careful. He won’t touch a woman unless he knows her background. So, you might have to work harder
The cold wind entered Winnie’s collar when he pulled it open, and she felt a chill in her heart. She playfully said, “I don’t believe you have the heart to do that!
“As long as it can help me win over Schilder, I’ll definitely compensate you of course, unless it’s absolutely necessary, you don’t have to get too intimate with him.” Baldrick tightened his grip and lowered his head for a kiss.
Winnie closed her eyes, and a bitter taste filled her heart.
