347 Who is in charge?

For the nobles, the housekeeper and the personal servant must be the absolute confidants.

Otherwise, the harm they can cause is often greater than that of their own wives.

So even if the male owner and the mistress are incompatible, the butler will not tell outsiders that the mistress is bad.

After all, this not only involves the issue of loyalty, but also a matter of professional ethics.

Just like a lawyer will never reveal the secrets of his clients.

Once someone really does this.

Or you will die if you don’t say it, or there will be greater interests waiting for them.

Let them not worry about losing their jobs or even being unable to gain a foothold in this industry, and they can live a good life.

Does this mean that Condra may know some John Gaussford's secrets?

And this secret made him unable to sleep or eat, so his long-term worries and anxiety prompted him to secretly express himself that he did not have a relationship with the Gaussford family?

Suddenly, Li Changheng felt that his actions in the basement just now might have received unexpected gains.

After all, these maids and male servants stay in the manor all year round.

Even if you don’t know the true core secret, some fragmented clues and the conflicts and secrets between the master may be connected together.

When he returned to the living room, Li Changheng's eyes quickly swept across everyone.

The expression was not visible to the person who turned his back to him, but in an instant, he discovered that Sylvia, Mountbatten, Mickey, and Sylvia's two brother-in-laws all looked at him.

Moreover, the short-sized third brother-in-law Anthony also showed obvious relief.

Li Changheng smiled and walked to Bell and others, pressing down Bell who wanted to give his position to him.

Andrew and others immediately asked where he went.

"The desserts for dinner were well made, so I went to the kitchen to ask today's dessert chef, thinking of teaching Ms. Meryl after returning to London and asking her to make one for Anne."

Andrew immediately laughed happily, but said, "I really didn't expect you to be a good gentleman. Even Anne wanted to taste the desserts she thought were delicious.

Henry, beware that Anne is spoiled by you, and the last one is you."

Li Changheng raised his eyebrows, "Do you think I am like someone controlled by Anne?"

Andrew immediately thought of the thousand-year Christmas, when Henry was the one who stared Anne out of tears in front of his father Philip.

"Henry, how did you make my stubborn sister listen to you in everything?"

These words immediately attracted Bell, Jeffrey, Ferred and Grosvenor.

His eyes were full of curiosity at Li Changheng.

Li Changheng shrugged with a smile, "Everything is better than her, she spoils her, loves her, and sets a clear line that she cannot cross.

As long as she crossed that line, she would have to be punished no matter how she begged for mercy or apologize.”

"Hey, Henry, you're definitely talking nonsense."

When Bell saw the others believing it, he nodded immediately, "The first half should be correct, but the second half must be misleading us?"

Jeffrey asked in confusion, "I think it's okay. There are some boundaries that we can't break, and women can't cross them."

"God, Jeff, the first time I found out you were an idiot."

Bell said before Jeffrey was angry, "If your girlfriend apologized or even begged for mercy, you would punish your girlfriend.

What do you think will be the consequences?”

Andrew and others were not stupid, so they immediately understood.

If that was true, he would definitely be hated by his girlfriend. It would be a small problem to act like a little, and it is not impossible to turn against him.

For a moment, Li Changheng caused public anger and was pulled and squeezed between Bell and Jeffrey. Not long after, he rolled his eyes from time to time and looked at the five guys who united to win their own money.

But no matter how much he plays, he still noticed what Sylvia and the Hollywood star named Ever Norville said.

Ever nodded with a smile, walked to the piano, played a serenade first, and then started singing while playing.

If he had no suspicion in his heart, Li Changheng might not have thought too much.

But Aver's actions while playing and singing were like sending signals to others in his eyes.

Moreover, these piano and singing can cover up some special sounds and attract uninformed people to the living room.

Even after playing and singing for more than ten minutes, Li Changheng, who had an extremely outstanding listening experience, heard someone outside the living room talking and some messy footsteps.

After listening carefully for a minute, I decided that it was the servants in the manor, those who were qualified to come up from the basement.

For example, the maids, male servants, guests' entourages, and servants danced with singing and piano sounds.

And it really seems that Ever didn't play very well, but his voice was low and thick. Even Li Changheng thought he was singing very well.

So will the kitchen maids, cleaners and others in the basement who are not qualified to come up gathered by the stairs to listen to music?

Then, is this considered attracting everyone in the manor so that people with bad intentions can take advantage of it?

The good thing is that there are bad things, not bad things.

For Li Changheng, if he wants to investigate the case, this is actually a very favorable condition.

Just by eliminating, you can send out three people, or even many people, together.

There are dozens of people in the entire manor, and at least two-thirds can be eliminated immediately.

As long as you catch the person who takes action, you can follow him to find other accomplices.

Just as I was thinking, I heard a burst of laughter from women.

Soon Isabel, Sylvia's aunt, two sisters, Mabel, Perrelin, and Yit, walked in with a chat and laugh.

The men present stood up politely, and Mountbatten, who had been sitting on the other side of the sofa playing chess with Mickey, asked in dissatisfaction, "Where is John?"

Isabel was stunned, and then said uneasy, "My father was in his study and said he was dealing with business matters, so I told everyone not to worry about him."

"Hmph", Mountbatten snorted coldly and continued to play chess with Mickey.

Sylvia's two brother-in-law who had no sense of existence then walked from the corner of the living room with their wine glasses to the ladies and started chatting.

As for the producer who was a little out of place, he stayed by the piano, drinking wine while writing on the piano countertop, probably about experiences or scripts.

Li Changheng looked at his watch and it was already 11:09 pm.

Ever, who was in charge of singing, seemed to be tired, singing one song after another without interruption.

Not long after, someone started dancing and someone started guessing riddles, but no one was willing to go back to his room to sleep.

What made Li Changheng secretly surprised him even more was that.

Only Perelin and Yit, the eldest sons of the two dukes, really looked like nobles, drinking champagne glass after glass.

Then someone went to the bathroom, and someone went to the billiards room next to the living room to play billiards.

Moreover, Li Changheng's eyes could easily see the billiards playing people, and they appeared from time to time near the open door.
