Chapter 6: The Lady of the Manor Housekeeper
As soon as she stepped out of the door of the firm, Qi Luoling was turning to leave, when suddenly Lawyer Ouhua stopped her from behind. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Please wait a minute, Miss Qi."
Qi Luoling turned her head and asked puzzledly, "Lawyer Ouhua, do you have anything else?" ”
Lawyer Helvar smiled slightly, walked up to her side, and said, "I wonder if you still have time?" Can I talk to you privately? ”
Qi Luoling hesitated for a moment and said, "Yes." ”
"Then let's go to the coffee shop across the street." Lawyer Helvar pointed across the road and said.
Qi Luoling looked up and saw that there were several cafes on the other side of the road.
The green light came on for crossing the street, and together they walked across the sidewalk to the outside of a coffee shop.
Outside the coffee shop there is a large terrace with several white rectangular tables and chairs. They choose a long table next to the entrance of the store and sit at opposite ends of the long table.
At this time, the young male waiter came over, Qi Luoling asked for a cup of pure coffee, and the Helvar lawyer asked for a cup of cappuccino mixed with milk.
The weather was still gloomy and although it was not raining, there were cool breezes. Qi Luoling looked around, and the café and terrace were full of people.
It's easy to find cafes everywhere you go in Europe, not to mention the fact that there are a few cafes in the lively squares.
It is said that Europeans drink seven or eight cups of coffee a day, both at home and in cafes outside. It's a part of their lives and a way of life. They spend a lot of their lives in a certain coffee restaurant that they like every day. This is their daily resting place, and they stay quietly for a while, perhaps "waiting for the soul to be pulled down".
From the inside of the café is OnlyLove, which has a beautiful Trademark on it.
"Miss Qi, it's very presumptuous, it seems a little abrupt for me to ask you in private." Helvar said apologetically.
Qi Luoling smiled and shook her head.
"Let me tell you this, although I am Mr. Meiss's exclusive lawyer, I have been friends with Mr. Meiss for many years. Since Mr. Maess has given you the Bletcheno estate, I think you must have a great place in his mind. Because I know Mr. Meiss's personality very well. ”
After the Helvar lawyer finishes, scoop the sugar with a coffee spoon, put it in the coffee cup and stir it slowly, and then gently place the coffee spoon in the tray under the coffee cup.
"Miss Qi, I have a personal question for you, is it okay?"
"Yes, you say hello."
"Did you know Mr. Meiss before?"
Qi Luoling shook her head and said, "I didn't know Mr. Maith before, and I felt inexplicable after receiving your lawyer's letter. ”
"I didn't know before, how could he suddenly change his will and leave you the huge Blecheno estate, don't you know why?"
"I don't know. I would also like to know why he mentioned my name in his will. ”
The Helvar lawyer did not speak, but pinched the cup with his thumb and forefinger, lifted the handle of the coffee cup, and drank it elegantly.
"Will you return to Warsaw soon this time?" He took a sip of his coffee and asked to himself.
"I don't think I'll be going back anytime soon. I have always wanted to come to Poland and Warsaw, but I have never had the opportunity. Now that I'm here, I want to stay as long as I can. ”
"Very well, I suggest you take the time to walk around the Blecheno estate, which has been managed by the butler, Lady Carolina, and her husband until you have signed the papers. But now that the manor is your private property, I will arrange for you to meet. What do you think? ”
"Okay, thank you."
"Do you have time tomorrow? I'd like to see you all if you have time. ”
"Yes, I should have time tomorrow." Qi Luoling thought for a while and said.
"Alright, let's make an appointment here tomorrow morning."
Qi Luoling nodded.
The next morning, she came to DLA Piper's office again.
In addition to Helvar's lawyers, there was a woman with short brown hair sitting on the sofa. This should be Mrs. Carolina.
Lady Carolina was about forty years of age, tall and well-dressed, dressed in a long black dress with a beautiful jeweled necklace around her neck.
Although she is not young, she is different from the special style of young women, just from her dress and her whole temperament, it can be seen that her temperament is very noble, but it is by no means a gesture. But this noble temperament is accompanied by a sense of indifference and arrogance that rejects people thousands of miles away.
Lady Carolina turned her face to look at her, her face expressionless.
The corners of her mouth were slightly twitched, her eyes were squinted, the corners of her eyes and the tips of her eyebrows were dyed with pride, and the warm and indifferent light that shone from her eyes.
"Miss Qi, this is Lady Carolina." DLA Piper said.
Qi Luoling smiled faintly and stretched out her right hand, "Lady Carolina, it's a pleasure to meet you." ”
Lady Carolina hesitated for a moment, and shook her hand. "Hello, Miss Qi."
"Miss Qi, since you have signed the relevant documents related to the manor, do you have time tomorrow morning?"
"Tomorrow morning?"
"I'd like to take me to visit the Blecheno estate tomorrow morning, and of course you can pack your bags and go straight to the Blecheno estate, what do you think?"
Qi Luoling was a little uneasy in her heart, after all, some mysteries had not been solved yet, and it seemed inappropriate to directly enter the Blecheno Manor in vain, so she didn't answer immediately.
"Miss Qi, do you have any inconvenience?" DLA Piper asked with concern, "Have you already made other arrangements?" ”
"No, I'm just a little scared of the unfamiliar environment, and if Lady Carolina can allow me to bring a friend along, then my nervousness may be eased somewhat."
"Miss Qi, you are polite, after all, it is your manor, and as many friends you bring with you, it is your freedom." Lady Carolina smiled and said.
"Then we're done. The Blecheno estate is on the outskirts of Warsaw, and tomorrow I will send a driver to pick you up. Where do you live now? ”
"I'm staying in a small hostel right now."
"Do you have a phone?"
"Yes."
"Well, the driver will contact you tomorrow. Then I'll go first, and I'll see you tomorrow, Miss Qi. ”
As if suddenly something had occurred to Lady Carolina, she turned back again.
"Duke Maiss asked me to pass you on something when he was alive."
"What's that?" Qi Luoling asked.
Lady Carolina took a beautiful cloth pocket from her blue handbag and handed it to her.
Qi Luoling opened it and saw that it was a beautiful and exquisite necklace, the color of the necklace was golden, the pendant was a black cross, and there was a blood-red gem in the cross place, black and red, which seemed to shine with a mysterious special atmosphere.
Soon after Mrs. Carolina left, she also left the office of the Helvar lawyer and took the bus back to the hotel.
