Chapter 190 Anna is missing!
"They are still here, sir. I just saw them taking the note and resting in the private seats in the lobby on the first floor. They didn't leave!"
The maid looked at the 50 bright-yellow copper coins on the tray with burning eyes and answered Gervis' question quickly.
"Very good. I have something you need to do for me. Go downstairs and tell the five people who took the photo of the note to come to Rose Castle to find me at night. I will give them what they want. By the way, my name is Gervis Gale. Remember, notify everyone!"
As Gervis expected, those people would definitely not leave easily after taking the note. However, since they helped him win the bet, Gervis would certainly not treat them unfairly.
"Yes, sir. I promise to convey your words to them and will never miss any of them!"
The maid nodded quickly. This was easy for her. Even if Gervis didn't reward her, she still needed to complete this simple request for Gervis seriously.
"Okay, go now, these copper coins are your reward!"
"Thank you, sir. I wish you a pleasant meal!"
Finally, after hearing Gervis' words, the maid bowed to him respectfully and then withdrew. These 50 copper coins were equivalent to her weekly income.
…
When Gervis and Pat came out of the Snowland Manor, it was an hour later. Both of them walked out of the manor gate, touching their bulging bellies and feeling satisfied.
The reason why the meal took so long was not only because they could eat for two people, but also because Gervis wanted to see the next auction to see if there was any gift for Alice. However, after the auction, no gift was found, which diluted Gervis' joy of winning the store.
Because he felt that he was really too poor. When the elf bugs were being auctioned at the auction, the rich people bid 10 gold coins at a time, which made Gervis doubt his life. It turned out that these nobles were so rich, while he was still complacent about the dozens of gold coins he made from selling ice cubes and golden oysters a few days ago.
I didn't expect that I couldn't even get a fraction of what others gave me. They just gave me hundreds of gold coins with a wave of their hands.
After leaving the manor gate, Gervis and Pat returned directly to Rose Castle. Because the sunlight was too strong at the moment, Gervis did not go to check the store. He planned to go out in the afternoon when the sun was not so strong. Besides, he had to give Kevin some time to vacate the store, right?
After returning to Rose Castle, Gervis asked Ik and the other two to lead the horses back to their residence, while he went straight back to the guest room. However, when Gervis returned to the guest room, he found that his little maid was not in the room.
"Did he go to the garden for a stroll?"
Gervis felt that this was the only possibility and he was not worried. After all, Rose Castle was the safest place.
So Gervis didn't care much and went straight back to the bedroom to take a nap. He was indeed tired after traveling for a few days. It was very hot outside, but the castle was warm in winter and cool in summer. It was just right for him to take a nice nap.
Gervis slept until dusk, and only woke up in a daze when he heard a knock on the door.
"Anna, who is that?"
Without thinking, Gervis shouted outside the bedroom.
"Anna?"
But after waiting for a while, Gervis found that no one answered him, but the knock on the door continued. Then Gervis remembered that Anna, the little maid, was not there when he came back. Gervis turned his head to look at the sky outside the window. The sun was about to set.
"Did something happen?"
Gervis' heart skipped a beat for no reason and he lost all sleepiness in an instant. He jumped out of bed immediately, put on his clothes casually, and quickly walked to the door of the guest room.
"Grevith, you're sleeping soundly. Let's go eat. If Teren hadn't called me, I would have slept until night!"
"Pat, have you seen Anna?"
Gervis did not answer Pat's words, but asked Pat directly.
"What happened to your little maid?"
Pat finally noticed that something was wrong with Gervis's expression. Usually, Gervis looked relaxed, but now he was nervous!
"When I came back, Anna was not in the room. Her bedroom was always open and no one was inside. I thought she went to the castle for a walk, but she hasn't come back yet!"
After explaining to Pat, Gervis quickly walked to the front of the male servant on duty. Before the male servant could say hello, Gervis quickly asked, "Have you seen the maid in my room? Her name is Anna. She is about fourteen or fifteen years old."
"Your Excellency, I have not seen any of them. I came to take over my shift after lunch and have been on duty here the whole time. I have never seen any maid enter or leave your room!"
Seeing Gervis's anxious tone, the servant did not dare to delay and bowed quickly to answer Gervis.
"Grevith, don't worry. This is Rose Castle. Nothing should go wrong. Wait a moment. I'll go ask Teren. If there's nothing I can find, I'll go find Housekeeper Lina."
Pat was right next to Gervis. Seeing how anxious he was, he admired Gervis a little. Although he was a little lustful, he was also a man who valued feelings. Some nobles were also lustful, but they were unfeeling to women, especially their maids. They were not like Gervis, who would anxiously look for the maid as soon as she disappeared.

After hearing what Pat said, Gervis had no choice but to nod. If Tren didn't know either, he would have to go find Lina.
"Tren, Tren you idiot, come out quickly!"
Pat knew that Gervis was anxious, so he didn't dare to delay and quickly walked to the door of his room and shouted inside.
"Sir, I'm here!"
"Have you seen Lord Gervis's maid this afternoon? Lord Gervis's maid is missing."
Walking out of the room quickly, Tren was also stunned when he heard Pat's words. He hadn't yet realized what it meant that Baron Gervis's personal servant was missing. How could he get lost in the Rose Castle?
"oops!"
However, after being kicked by Pat angrily, she immediately reacted and replied after a brief recollection: "Sir, since Baron Gervis returned to his room, I have never seen Lord Gervis's personal maid again..."
As he spoke, he saw Pat's face full of disappointment. He was about to turn around, but he swallowed and continued.
"However, after you went to the garden, I went to the restaurant outside the castle to eat and saw Butler Lina knocking on Lord Gervis' door. I don't know anything else."
"You idiot, your head got caught in a door today, you can't even talk properly!"
Pat was irritated by Tren, and unhappily slapped Tren on the head with a stick, cursed him harshly, then turned to Gervis and said, "Gervis, it seems that we can only go find Lina. I'll go with you to find Lina!"
"No, Pat, you go eat first, I'll find it myself!"
As he spoke, Gervis turned around quickly and told the servant to lead the way to find Lina.
