Isolde was speechless for a long time after hearing what had been said.

At Belleview Manor, any laborer working in the fields was guaranteed at least one meal with meat every day, while those in logistics received meat every other day–real meat, not just scraps.

After a moment of silence, she turned to Eddie and said, “Your wages will be calculated from the day you started at the manor five hundred coins during the off–season, and one string of coins during peak farming periods. Once everything settles, I’ll settle your payment first”

Eddic could hardly believe his ears. Howe could such a windfall suddenly land on him

Five hundred coins a month, a whole string during the busy season–over two years, how much money would that be?

Dear heavens, he couldn’t even calculate it. That was a fortune.

His lips trembled as he stammered, “Y–you… you mean it?”

“I always keep my word. Now, go change your clothes and come back.” Isolde felt a strange mix of emotions.

-this was what he was rightfully owed, yet to him, it seemed like an unimaginable gift.

Eddie left, full of gratitude.

Shortly after Eddie departed, Oliver arrived.

Before he could speak, Isolde gestured for him to sit and poured him a cup of coffee.

Oliver didn’t ask questions, nor did he speak. He simply sipped his coffee in quiet companionship.

Half an hour later, dozens of field workers gathered outside the courtyard, clamoring to see Isolde.
