Chapter 183

At 10 o’clock, the dinner party ended. Mr. and Mrs. Schilder, who had been on the road all day, went

back to their room to rest after the meal. Jonathan didn’t arrange any other activities either.

Back at the villa, Estelle was still thinking about Winnie’s words and her sad face at the time.

Jonathan held her in his arms, gently kissing her neck. His voice was deep from the alcohol. “What are

you thinking about?”

Estelle clutched his shirt and said, “You didn’t tell me Mr. Schilder would be bringing his wife! I

should’ve prepared a gift too.”

She couldn’t help but feel that Baldrick seemed to be extra active and trying to please Schilder hardly.

With an indifferent and proud tone, Jonathan said, ‘Schilder controls the technology, but I control the

domestic market. We’re working together for mutual benefit There’s no need for you to please him!”

“But…” Estelle didn’t know if she should mention her concerns about Baldrick.

Before she could finish, Jonathan’s lips were on hers, and he carried her towards the bathroom.

For the next two days, Jonathan had been discussing business with Schilder while Estelle and Winnie

accompanied Mrs. Macy. It was obvious that Winnie and Mrs. Macy got along even better since

Baldrick would often take her to business trips- she was very skilled in handling such matters.

Although Jonathan was busy, he still took the time every morning to pick out clothes for Estelle, apply

sunscreen for her, have breakfast with her, and occasionally take her horseback riding or teach her

golf.

Perhaps being away from familiar surroundings made Jonathan even more attentive to Estelle.

Estelle felt increasingly ashamed, as if everyone else was on the battlefield. Winnie was working hard

to support Baldrick, but Estelle couldn’t do much for Jonathan and instead, she was receiving his

attention and care.

One afternoon, Estelle and Winnie accompanied Mrs. Macy back to the place where she and Schilder

were staying. As the three had their afternoon tea in the sunroom, Estelle found her coffee too bitter

and put it down after only one sip.

She had a sweet tooth and couldn’t stand bitterness.

Mrs. Macy smiled gently and said, “The coffee is from Munich. Are you not used to it? I can get you

some sugar to sweeten it up a bit.”

Estelle smiled and replied, “I saw the sugar box on the balcony just now. I can get it myself.”

Mrs. Macy smiled, nodding. “Okay, just help yourself.”

With a pure smile, Estelle got up to get the sugar box from the balcony.

As she walked towards the balcony, her eyes glanced outside and stopped, stunned. She approached

the floor–to–ceiling window behind the white curtain and looked down.

Below the balcony was the side entrance of the villa. Baldrick and Schilder’s brown–haired

housekeeper, who had come with them, stood there. The two men talked quietly.

They were alone, and Estelle knew that Jonathan was having a video conference in the villa, so was

Baldrick taking advantage of this time to meet with Schilder privately?

The conversation seemed to be in German and sounded very quiet, Estelle couldn’t hear clearly even

after opening the window slightly.

Baldrick’s smile contained a hint of cunningness and flattery. After chatting intimately with the

housekeeper, he took a step back to say goodbye.

As he left, he glanced left and right, then walked around the garden and quickly left the villa.

Esteller

Winnie called out her name.

Estelle replied softly, “Coming”

She turned to grab the sugar, seeing several neatly arranged sugar boxes on the shelf She randomly

picked one and returned to the sunroom.
