As quickly as it comes, it disappears as quickly.

The courtyard that was noisy just now returned to calm once again after the kidnapped people left.

Later, after taking a look at the situation in the yard, Brett prepared to go back to the house.

However, at this time,

"Mr. Bright!"

A shout stopped him.

Brett turned around and saw Mrs. Roland standing in the yard at some point. She was wearing a semi-transparent gauze skirt on her bumpy body. If you look carefully, you can still vaguely see a look on her face.

Seeing this look, Bright frowned slightly, what is Mrs. Roland planning to do?

She usually avoids him at night. After all, she is a widow, so it is not good to meet him alone at night.

Seeing Mr. Bright stop, Mrs. Rowland walked up.

When she came to the stairs, she looked up at Bright with a somewhat hesitant look on her face. Finally, after struggling for a while, she finally said it.

"Mr. Bright, could you please do me a favor?"

"What's the matter?" Brett asked calmly.

"Just..., can you help take care of Jace for a while...I might disappear for a while."

Brett frowned and said nothing,

Below, Mrs. Roland continued:

"If possible, I want Jace to follow you and work as a slave for you, as long as you take him in."

As if she was afraid that Bright would not agree, Mrs. Roland said hurriedly:

"Mr. Bright, I will never trouble you,"

"I have been preparing for Jace's affairs over the years. Together with Roland's inheritance and what I prepared, I barely scraped together five hundred silver coins."

"Mr. Bright, as long as you agree, these five hundred silver coins will be yours. I just want Jace to live!"

"Sir, although Jace looks a little weak now, he is determined and will definitely be able to help you in the future."

Brett did not answer, but looked at Mrs. Roland and asked calmly: "Did something happen?"

Upon hearing this question, Mrs. Roland's pupils shrank suddenly, her expression was very hesitant, and she ultimately did not speak out.

After returning to the room,

Brett took off his coat and lay on the bed. He did not immediately agree to Mrs. Roland's request, but just said he would think about it.

............

Even though she did not get a positive answer, Mrs. Roland knew that she had no time.

After getting everything ready,

Late at night, she walked out of the yard alone in a black robe.

Arriving somewhere in the city, a black shadow appeared in front of her.

The black shadow looked at Mrs. Roland and said calmly: "No. 132, your time is running out. I will recycle it tomorrow. Please be prepared."

Seeing the black shadow, Mrs. Roland bowed respectfully and said, "Thank you for your help. After I finish everything, you can take it away tomorrow."

"There's nothing helpful to say. It's a fair deal between us."

The black shadow glanced at Mrs. Roland and disappeared there the next second.

After the shadow left,

Mrs. Roland stood there, stunned for a long time, not knowing what she was thinking.

Suddenly at this time,

A shadow came out from behind her,

"Mrs. Roland, is this the reason why you want to disappear?"

"Fallen Pretender."

Brett walked out from behind her. He saw everything from the plant's field of vision about the scene just now, including the dark figure.

What's interesting is that the black shadow also felt his presence, but didn't make any movement, as if he didn't care.

"Mr. Bright!!"

hear sounds,

Mrs. Roland turned around instantly and looked at Bright with a surprised look on her face. She did not expect that he would follow him, and she did not notice his aura!

Bright approached slowly and said in a calm tone: "I'm sorry, Mrs. Roland, I spied on you without your consent."

"However, your recent actions are somewhat suspicious. As a tenant living next to you, it is necessary for me to monitor you."

"So, your choice is to become a fallen pretender?"

Seeing that the matter had been exposed, Mrs. Roland felt that there was nothing to hide, so she took off her clothes and hat, revealing her face that had become somewhat thin.

However, this face was still normal a few days ago.

She looked bitter,

"Mr. Bright, this is my choice."

"It's the only thing I can do."

"What about Jace? Did you consider him before making this choice?" Brett asked.

Mrs. Roland was stunned for a moment, then looked at Brett and said helplessly: "Sir, everything I did was for Jess!"

Bright was a little surprised when he heard this sentence, obviously he did not expect this situation.

In the cabin late at night, Jace was lying on the bed and breathing evenly.

Mrs. Roland choked with sobs and told everything.

"Mr. Bright, you don't know."

"My husband offended a nobleman because of his upright character, so he died suddenly!"

"But! Roland is dead, and that nobleman has no intention of letting me and Jace go!!!"

"He said that when Jace comes of age, he will inherit Roland's knighthood."

"I have no power to resist that noble's order."

"I will give everything for Jace, as long as Jace lives."

"But, sir, you also know Jace's character. If you go to him, you will only die."

"Just a few months ago, when I was desperate, he found me and offered me life for a short period of time."

"For Jace to survive."

"So, I agreed."

"Mr. Bright, I have no way out now."

Mrs. Roland's face looked a little crazy at this time,

Did he know that his tortured life was about to end?

Or are you happy that Jace can survive?

.........

the next day,

Morning,

As soon as Brett opened the door, he saw a suitcase placed at the door of his house. When he opened it, he found that it was filled with silver coins and two letters.

One is for Brett,

One was for Jess.

Brett was silent.

The reason why he went there last night was to confirm whether Mrs. Roland was good or bad.

If they are planning to do something to him secretly, then Bright will deal with him,

but not,

only,

Even though he didn't explicitly say whether he would take Jess in, Mrs. Roland still handed him the silver coins.

Crunch.......

The wooden house on the side was pushed away. After seeing Brett, Jess said in surprise,

"Mr. Bright! Were you okay last night?"

Jess rubbed his head and said with some embarrassment: "I wanted to help you last night, but for some reason, I suddenly fell asleep..."
