They all call me master

100,000 gold coins is not a small amount

This is true for anyone.

Even Malinda is the same.

But unlike others, Malinda would not be furious immediately when she got this number, nor would she think what Arthur said was nonsense.

Malinda, on the other hand, thinks.

And Arthur likes people who think.

Especially the way Malinda thinks is even more charming.

Even standing there motionless, it seemed to be emitting golden light.

Malinda firmly believed that Arthur had made plans in advance and had a target in mind.

Arthur is also willing to let Malinda continue to believe.

So, he planned to name a name——

Donne!

The Donne of Alvis Hamlet's pseudonym!

And this pseudonym is worth 100,000.

In fact, this price is really a friendly price.

after all……

As long as Malinda investigates this pseudonym, she will definitely be able to find Alvis Hamlet.

At the same time, it is very possible to find some clues about him from Alvis Hamlet, and thus learn more about the secret that his mother is a member of the "Golden Lion Family".

Therefore, the price is really not expensive.

It's definitely not because Arthur gave all the money to Bob to make the [Death Soldier Potion] and was running out of money, so he wanted to cheat Malinda.

Absolutely not!

Arthur emphasized in his heart.

At the same time, he walked towards the kitchen.

Malinda told him to get the dishes back.

As for the dishes and chopsticks from last time?

Ms. Anna has washed it.

Arthur also saw it later, all neatly and cleanly placed in the basket.

"Here, your bowls and chopsticks.

Did I wash it clean? "

Arthur placed the basket in front of Malinda.

Ms. Anna, who was flipping through "New Pastry Cooking" at the side, didn't even raise her head, just flipped through the pages quietly - for Ms. Anna, Arthur's 'white lie' was like a spoiled baby brother.

Not only does it not matter, it is actually kind of cute.

Of course, only for Kratos' family.

outsider?

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

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

"Thank you for your help."

Malinda thanked her sincerely.

Although he can roughly guess the origin of Ms. Anna, if Arthur regards Ms. Anna as a family member, she also needs to show corresponding respect.

Not for anything else.

Just for his current status.

"You're welcome, Malinda."

Ms. Anna replied with a smile.

That smile was hideous and terrifying, at least in the eyes of outsiders, but in Malinda's eyes, it was much better, at least better than some bastard who kept his mouth open and shut up to ask for money, but in his heart was a scheming bastard.

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

"Say it!"

"Dorn, Dorne from the Inner Bay!"

Arthur said this.

Malinda narrowed her eyes.

"Inner Bay?"

the woman repeated with emphasis.

"Um."

Arthur nodded with certainty.

Without any hesitation, Malinda blew out a huge smoke ring and got straight into it.

call!

Finally left.

Arthur let out a long breath, and after saying hello to Ms. Anna, Arthur returned to the floor of the 'Psychic Hall' and quickly fell asleep.

Malinda started to get busy.

First, let his men inquire and find the man named Dorn.

It's possible that he came from the inner bay, but of course it's more likely that he claimed to be from somewhere else.

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

after?

The woman began to arrange her clothes.

She put on a pair of khaki trousers, brown high-waisted boots, and a white shirt with a vest - although she was still dressed as a man, the cuffs and collar were decorated with lace, and the trousers were slightly modified. The waist and hip position makes it more streamlined and looks more like a women's hunting suit.

This woman is not doing this to change anything.

But it has to be done.

because……

Lady Susan's visit.

Facing the great housekeeper of the Earl of Nanlos, Malinda would never be careless.

However, in the past, Malinda 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, Malinda, who has been playing the role of the Count of Nanlos' purse, still has some confidence when facing Lady Susan, and does not need such cautious treatment at all.

The reason is to put on some outfits that the other person likes.

Nature has nothing to do with will.

It also has nothing to do with pleasing.

It was Malinda who hoped to get some useful information from Mrs. Susan.

Then?

Of course, it is used as a 'chip' in the deal with Arthur!

Think about it, since the beginning of the transaction with Arthur, when has she not paid all kinds of trading chips? For once Arthur had not taken the initiative.

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

Therefore, Malinda did not inform her that Mrs. Susan came to visit her just now.

Just to win Arthur once!

At least!

At least--

She, Malinda, also wants to take the initiative!

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.

Other than 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 Malinda 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? ! !
