Chapter 216 Caroline’s Dependence

Back to her private room, Gervais ate and drank with Igor and Bart for a while, and then returned to the Rose Castle after eating and drinking.

Before leaving, Gervais gave Igor two jugs of wine, one for him and one for Anthony. Although the wine is not sold enough now, for those who show goodwill to him, Gervais Don’t be stingy, after all, you don’t know when you’ll need it.

After returning to the Rose Castle, Gervais went directly to the study on the third floor and flipped through the books. Gervais planned to take advantage of the past few days to read more books in the study.

Gervais spent more than an hour reading books in the study room when he heard footsteps coming from outside the door. As the study door was opened, Alice walked in gracefully from outside.

“Back?”

Seeing Alice walk into the study, Gervais raised his head and asked.

Although Alice is also wearing a long dress today, which sets off her tall and well-proportioned figure vividly and thoroughly, she is not as exposed as Caroline. With beautiful lace sleeves.

Alice nods to Gervais. Although her expression is still high and cold, she is much softer than when she was angry. Obviously Alice is in a good mood at the moment.

Alice walked directly to the opposite side of Gervais and sat on the sofa. After sitting down, she asked Gervais, “How did you and Caroline meet?”

Hearing Alice’s question, Gervais put the book in his hand on the desk, and then began to tell Alice what happened at the Snowland Manor that day, as well as the bet with Kevin.

At this time, Alice suddenly realized that Gervais’ shop came from this way. As a big city under the seat of Lord Count, of course there are many spies from the Jones family in Winterfell, but the Snowland Manor belongs to the north. The Lord’s property, in order to respect the Lord of the North who loves her, Alice did not set up spies in the Snowland Manor, so she only knew about it now.

Of course, if there is usually any important information, the Snowland Manor will also be shared with Rose Castle.

As for Kevin’s side, of course he doesn’t want to publicize such a shameful thing, especially not to let Alice know.

“Today Caroline invited me to the banquet and talked to me about two things, the first was about wine, and the second was about you…”

For Caroline and Kevin so just and honourable want to put hats on themselves, Gervais certainly won’t make them feel better, at least I have to remind myself that this cheap wife, of course there is a little selfishness in it, so beautiful High-cold Goddess, he can’t get it, and Gervais certainly doesn’t want others to get it.

After listening to Gervais’s detailed description, Alice was not surprised or angry, but said nodded: “I know about this matter, you don’t need to worry about it, in fact, the rumor that I was in love with Kevin was Caroline. I fanned the flames and made everyone believe Kevin’s words.”

“Isn’t Caroline a child of the Solem family? After all, she is also your cousin, so what’s in it for her? “

Gervais felt a bit like a palace fight when he heard this, but one thing he couldn’t figure out was, what good was this for Caroline?

Is it because of jealousy? Gervais felt that his guess had a certain probability. After all, every time she said that Alice was prettier than Caroline, Caroline would have a strong reaction.

“That’s exactly what I wanted to say to you, Caroline, in addition to being a child of the Solem family, she’s also the fiancee of the First Prince!”

“Like Things like today, you better not happen again in the future, because if the First Prince knows, he will never allow anyone to take advantage of Caroline.”

Alice saphire blue eyes fell on Gervais , seeing what Gervais was trying to explain, Alice continued: “Even if Caroline did it on purpose, it doesn’t matter. For people with power, right or wrong doesn’t matter. Strength is the criterion for judging things.”

Gervais figured out a lot in an instant, why Caroline can boast that Haikou can solve the problem of herself and Lenny’s buffer zone, and although Kevin is the third son of Count, he follows Caro like a younger brother. Behind Lynn, it’s all because of the First Prince.

Caroline’s pimping for Kevin also has an explanation, Alice is now a fragrant nest, and all the nobles in the dukedom want to take a bite on the Jones family, and among them the strongest Of course the king three father and son.

The king doesn’t care which son the Jones family will end up in, but First Prince and Second Prince don’t think so. bit of help.

The last thing they want to see is that the Jones family is captured by the other party, so both sides have resorted to a lot of means to win Alice.

Even if this fragrant nest has been stung by flies like Gervais, they don’t mind, just drive away when the time comes.

The dukedom appears to be calm on the surface, but there are undercurrents in the dark, all stemming from the disappearance of the Jones family’s strongest deterrent.

 …

 …

For the next few days, Gervais will still maintain the same routine as the previous two days, going to the orc arena with Bart every morning.

In these three days, Gervais was lucky enough to get 5 energy points, and 4 energy points were obtained by bidding the hero to execute orcs with gold coin.

Of course, not every gladiator fight in the arena was won by humans. In the three days, there were a total of 6 gladiatorial fights in the arena, twice a day, and two of the 6 fights were fought by humans being defeated by orcs. The slaughter ended cleanly.

In the end, the title Knight was dispatched in the gladiatorial arena, and the dead humans were left with their entire corpses. It was the two failed gladiatorial fights that Gervais did not gain energy points.

And the other 1 energy point is that Gervais opened Eve’s space and personally took the guards to kill the orcs to get it. The place to open the space is also in the arena. With Lina’s warrant, Gervais easily entered the deserted arena in the evening.

This time Gervais did not encounter as many orcs as the first time. This time, the orc space opened by Eve only had 8 orcs in total, and they were gnolls quite similar to kobolds. Although gnolls are slightly stronger than kobolds and move faster, they can only be pressed and beaten in the face of guards armed to the teeth.

And Gervais is only for energy points, so he didn’t give the orc leader a chance to use his skills as last time. When the orc leader was out of space, Gervais slashed him with three critical strikes. became two halves.

In addition to the energy points, Gervais the past few days also received 685 gold coins in his pocket, of which 670 gold coins came from the sale of wine, and the reputation of the second day golden wine was passed on. All over Winterfell.

A total of 670 pots were sold in three days, until three days later, when most of the nobles had already purchased the golden wine, the sales slowly declined.

And the sales of ice cream in the past few days are also very hot, and it has already earned Gervais 15 gold coins. You must know that a can of ice cream is only 2 Silver Coins, and 15 gold coins is equivalent to selling more than 750 gold coins. Cans of ice cream, this time the ice cream brought by Gervais is about to end, and only two-fifths of the ice cream can last for a few days at most.
