Baldrick gave her a warm smile.

He began to explain in a soft voice, "Master Collins said that a child should never be separated from their parents. Since you are leaving soon, Beanie should spend more time with you. Moreover, Master Collins isn't an unreasonable person. He was able to spend the New Year with his great-grandson and he was truly happy about that, therefore..."

Speaking of this, Baldrick's words stopped, and then he looked at Beanie.

Minerva could sense the hint and she pinched Beanie on his cheeks.

"Beanie, go take a shower then wait for me in the room, alright? Your suitcase is in your daddy's room."

"Okay, Mommy. I will go take a shower first."

After dismissing Beanie, Minerva asked, "Baldrick, you're here for something else, aren't you?"

He nodded, took out an envelope from his briefcase, and handed it to her. She looked at the envelope but didn't take it.

Jarold had given her a small box the last time.

The box contained a priceless diamond necklace. What could be in the envelope this time? Could it be money?

"Madam Minerva?" Baldrick called out to her when he saw her staring at the envelope in a daze.

He didn't reply. He just mysteriously handed her the envelope and said, "Madam Minerva, you will find out later when you open it. It is a present from Master Collins for Beanie. He instructed me clearly to personally pass this to you."

She took it with trembling hands. She could feel that there was something very important inside the envelope.

Looking at the envelope, it could only be money inside, but when she wrapped her fingers around it, it felt more like a document.

Could it be...
