Chapter 218
Winnie on the bed was still struggling, her eyes filled with desperation and panic, showing no trace of
pretense, while Krus was already undressing himself. Estelle decided to take action after all. Apart from
her relationship with Jonathan, she was first and foremost a badass who knew how to fight! She
grabbed the suit that the guy on the floor had taken off and threw it over his head, then without any
hesitation, she swung a punch at his neck.
The tall man’s figure wobbled a few times, then with a thud, he fell onto the bed
Winnie screamed and quickly backed away. Astonished, she looked at the unconscious Krus, then
immediately turned her eyes to Estelle
Winnie’s hair was disheveled, and her countenance displayed sheer terror, devoid of her usual grace
and allure. Observing this, Estelle calmly retrieved Winnie’s clothing and gently draped them over her
trembling form.
In an instant, Winnie broke down in tears, embracing Estelle tightly as if she had marrowly escaped
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdeath. Estelle’s body stiffened momentarily, taken aback by the sudden outpouring of emotion.
Awkwardly, she patted Winnie’s hand, attempting to provide solace. It’s alright now, there’s no need to
cry, she offered, trying her best to console Winnie.
Winnie couldn’t stop sobbing, choking out, “I thought I could handle it, but I can’t. When he touched me,
my whole body was trembling!”
“Estelle, I can’t take it, I really can’t!”
Estelle frowned and said, “You can refuse Baldrick’s excessive demands!”
Winnie didnt answer, just continued to cry, locking very sad and desperate.
After a long while, Winnie gradually calmed down, got dressed, wiped the tears off her face, and asked
Estelle, “How did you end up here?”
Estelle was very surprised, “Didn’t you send me a message asking me to come?”
Winnie shook her head, puzzled. “No, I didn’t send you a message.”
“Where’s your phone?” Estelle asked
Winnie replied, “Baldrick took it!”
In that moment, Estelle understood that this was indeed a plot, but a plat orchestrated by Baldrick
alone.
He had deliberately lured her here, to witness Winnie being mistreated. If she did something to Krus,
he certainly wouldn’t let her go, thus implicating Jonathan. If she were a weak girl who got mistreated
by Krus as well, Jonathan wouldn’t let it go either.
As long as she entered this room, no matter what the outcome, Baldrick’s goal would be achieved.
No wonder all the servants were gone when she walked in, all dismissed by Baldrick,
Winnie still didn’t understand, asking, “What’s going on?”
Estelle looked towards the door, sneering. “You’ll find out soon enough!”
Sure enough, just as she finished speaking. Baldrick appeared at the door, a smug expression on his
face as he looked at Estelle and said, “You’re a smart girl, no, wonder Jonathan is so fond of you.
However, you learned too late. I’ll wake up Krus soon, and then you can go tell Jonathan that he can hit
the road!”

“You’re the one who should hit the road!” Estelle raised her eyebrows, leapt into action, did a
somersault, and kicked Baldrick directly in the temple.
He didn’t even have time to see how Estelle got close to him, his head aching and he collapsed on the
spot.
Millard appeared at the door with a serious expression, asking, “Did you run into trouble?”
Estelle smiled and said, “Not too bad, not too bad!‘
Winnie, pale–faced, slowly walked over and asked, “What do we do now?”
Estelle flashed a mischievous grin. “Let’s give them a surprise!”
Ten minutes later, following Estelle’s directions, Millard stripped Baldrick and Krus of their clothes,
leaving them completely naked, and deposited them onto Baldrick’s bed. They even covered the
entwined pair with a blanket before making their exit.
The two men now lay intertwined on the bed, their heads peeking out from beneath the blanket,
foreheads touching, noses almost touching. They appeared surprisingly friendly in that peculiar
position.
After completing all of this, he walked out the door where Estelle and Winnie were waiting. He said,
“Ms. Macclain, I’ve done everything you’ve asked.” “Thank you!” Estelle replied sincerel
