100,000 gold coins is not a small amount

This is true for anyone.

Even Melinda is the same.

But unlike others, Melinda will not get angry immediately when she gets this number, nor will she think that what Arthur said is nonsense.

On the contrary, Melinda will think.

And Arthur likes people who think.

Especially the way Melinda thinks is particularly charming.

Even if she stands there motionless, she seems to be emitting golden light.

Melinda firmly believes that Arthur has made plans in advance and has a clear purpose.

Arthur is also willing to let Melinda continue to believe.

So, he plans to say a name -

Donne!

The Donne of Alvis Hamlet's alias!

And this alias is worth 100,000.

In fact, this price is really a friendly price.

After all...

As long as Melinda investigates this alias, she will definitely find Alvis Hamlet.

At the same time, it is also very likely that some clues about Alvis Hamlet will be found from him, so as to know more about the secret that his mother is a member of the ‘Golden Lion Family’.

Therefore, this price is really not expensive.

It is definitely not because Arthur gave all the money to Bob to rush to make the [Death Potion], and the funds were stretched, so he wanted to cheat Melinda.

Absolutely not!

Arthur emphasized in his heart.

At the same time, he walked to the kitchen.

Melinda told him to take back the dishes.

As for the dishes last time?

Ms. Anna washed them.

Arthur saw them later, neatly and cleanly placed in the basket.

"Here, your dishes.

Did I wash them clean?"

Arthur put the basket in front of Melinda.

Ms. Anna, who was flipping through "New Pastry Cooking" on the side, did not even raise her head, but just flipped through it quietly - for Ms. Anna, Arthur's "white lie" was like a younger brother acting like a spoiled child.

Not only does it not matter, but it is a bit cute.

Of course, it is limited to Kratos' family.

Outsiders?

Ms. Anna will let the other party feel what horror is.

Melinda looked at the basket, rolled her eyes at Arthur, and then looked at Ms. Anna——

"Thank you for your help."

Melinda thanked her sincerely.

Although she could roughly guess Ms. Anna's origin, if Arthur regarded Ms. Anna as a family member, she also needed to show corresponding respect.

Not for anything else.

Just for his current identity.

"You're welcome, Melinda."

Ms. Anna replied with a smile.

That smile was hideous and terrifying, at least in the eyes of outsiders, but in Melinda's opinion, it was much better, at least better than a bastard who asked for money all the time and was calculating and scheming in his heart.

After thinking about the funds in the account and confirming that it would not affect her business, Melinda nodded to Arthur.

"Speak!"

"Dorn, Dorne from the inner bay!"

Arthur said so.

Melinda narrowed her eyes.

"Inner Bay?"

The lady repeated.

"Yes."

Arthur nodded with certainty.

Without any hesitation, Melinda blew out a huge smoke ring and went straight in.

Hoo!

Finally gone.

Arthur let out a long breath, said hello to Ms. Anna, and then returned to the floor of the 'medium hall' and quickly fell asleep.

Melinda began to get busy.

First, she asked her men to inquire and find the man named Dorn.

It is possible that he is from Inner Bay, of course, it is more likely that he claims to be from other places.

However, no matter what, Melinda needs to know everything about this man named Dorn before sunset.

After that?

The lady began to tidy up her clothes.

She changed into a pair of khaki trousers, brown high-waisted boots, and a white shirt with a vest. Although it was still a man's outfit, the cuffs and collar were decorated with lace, and the trousers were slightly modified at the waist and hips to make them more linear and look more like a lady's hunting suit.

This lady did not do this to change anything.

But she had to do it.

Because...

Mrs. Susan's visit.

Facing the butler of the Count of South Los, Melinda would never be careless.

However, in the past, Melinda would never be so "dressed up", even if she knew that the other party did not like her daily dress.

In the past two years, Melinda, who has been playing the role of the Count of South Los's money bag, still has some confidence when facing Mrs. Susan, and does not need such cautious treatment.

The reason for changing into some clothes that the other party likes.

Naturally, it has nothing to do with will.

It has nothing to do with flattery.

It is that Melinda hopes to get some useful information from Mrs. Susan.

Then?

Of course, it was as a bargaining chip for the deal with Arthur!

Think about it, since the deal with Arthur, which time did she not pay various bargaining chips? Which time did Arthur not take the initiative?

This made the always strong lady unable to swallow this breath.

So, just now, Malinda did not tell her about Mrs. Susan's visit to her.

It was just to win Arthur once!

At least!

At least——

She, Malinda, also wants to take the initiative once!

Therefore, Malinda unconsciously paid attention to Mrs. Susan's visit.

"Mary prepare some light food.

However, meat needs to be well prepared.

Spices need to be used sparingly, and a soup worthy of being a main dish is needed. "

Malinda ordered.

"Okay, my lord."

Mary, the cook who also worked as a housekeeper, immediately went to the kitchen herself.

When Edwin came to report, Malinda walked to the gate of the main building of Caesar Manor and watched a carriage without any indication slowly drive in from the gate.

The driver was a guard from the Earl of Nanlos who looked familiar but could not name him.

Apart from that, there are no other companions.

Malinda frowned secretly.

Although Mrs. Susan's strength does not require more guards, as the chief steward of the Earl of Nanlos, she must receive the treatment she deserves.

Or……

Aristocratic etiquette and demeanor.

In short, there should be a cavalry team of no less than 20 people around the carriage.

But now there is only one possibility for this situation.

Lady Susan is not here on behalf of the Earl of Nanlos, but in her own name.

In this case, a good personal relationship is required.

And she and Lady Susan?

There is no such personal relationship.

But what really makes Malinda strange is Mrs. Susan’s attitude——

After the carriage stopped at the door of the main building, without waiting for the guard to open the door, Mrs. Susan opened the door and got out of the carriage after seeing Malinda standing at the door.

"Why did you come out?

Winters in South Los Angeles are not so friendly. "

The slightly complaining words of an elder made Malinda look confused.

Afterwards, what was even more confusing was that Mrs. Susan took off her rabbit fur cloak and put it on Malinda.

Moreover, before Malinda could react, she took Malinda's arm and almost half-supported her back to the main building.

Malinda was stunned.

The 'Lady of the Night' stared blankly at Lady Susan.

But the lady looked at Malinda carefully and murmured softly——

"That bastard old Charlie would be very happy if he knew he was going to be a great-grandfather."

Malinda was startled.

Then, his pupils trembled.

Um? ! !
