Jenny said she woke up in the middle of the night to the sound of footsteps on the roof, just above her bedroom, and then a sound from the stairs.Yanni pulled off the blindfold and grabbed the gun on the chair. "At this time, the dog barked, just like it usually met a stranger." Yan Ni walked towards the direction of the sound with the gun in hand, her head was still heavy, obviously the sleeping pills hadn't worn off yet.Pushing open the door, Yanni saw a dark figure.The Starac car slowly stopped in front of the brightly lit main building of the Becker Manor. Mrs. Jenny Woodward rolled down the window and said to the Becker family servant who came forward with an umbrella: "Don't tell me We were the first ones, Saney."

"Mr. Freeman has arrived." Saini Mutan replied respectfully. "You mean, Stan Freeman, the pianist?" "Yes. Mrs. Baker made him play the entire set of "Boyfriend." The fashion was fast enough, and the flattery was just right, and quite cleverly, Mrs. Woodward thought to herself. "Boyfriend" is a new opera that just opened on Broadway earlier this month, and it is a hot topic after dinner.However, not many people know that the leading actor in the play was once the lover of the Duchess of Windsor when she was young, and the banquet at Becker's house tonight is specially for the Duke and Duchess of Windsor who just arrived in New York from Paris.

Jenny Woodward got out of the car with her skirt, carefully avoiding the water on the ground, without turning her head, she said angrily to her husband in the driver's seat: "Look, we are still early after all." "Didn't you urge all the way, saying that Mrs. Becker asked all the guests to arrive before the Duke and Duchess went downstairs?" "Exactly," Yanni smiled at the servant, "I forgot to bring the powder box, let them send me to Mrs. Becker's room to touch up my makeup first." "Oh, I'm sorry," Saini continued what Mr. William Odward said just now, "The Duke of Windsor will not come down today. You know, the Duke is always not in a good mood in this weather."

Jenny followed the maid, and Saini was still waiting beside Starlake, waiting patiently for William Woodward to set his Rolex watch back one hour. On the last weekend in October, clocks across the United States switch from daylight saving time to normal time.Then Saini saw William draw a revolver from his belt and put it in the toolbox in front of the passenger. "There have been thieves in our area these two days." Xu Shi noticed Saini's surprised expression, and William Woodward explained lightly. "Also, there may be a call for me this evening." "I see, sir."

"It's a long distance." William Woodward knew Seni Mutan, and he also knew the people of Becker Manor. He knew every room in the building here, and every bush in the garden, just as he knew his own home. He has often been in and out of this house since he was 10 years old. He used to be the son of the Becker family, Greenville, nicknamed "Doudou", and his best friend. At 8:30, Willis, the Duchess of Windsor, accompanied by Mrs. Becker, appeared on time at the stairway above the banquet hall.The Duchess wore a light green floor-length dress and walked gracefully on the red carpet.Jenny Woodward knew that the dress was sewn by Christian Dior herself, and she also knew that the emerald jewelry worn on the Duchess' neck, earlobe and fingers and wrists was originally from the time when the Duke was the Prince of Wales. , Queen Alexandra, the mother of the Duke, left it to his future wife, and was later sent by Willis to the Cartier Jewelry House in Paris to remake it. They were taken back as "crown jewels".

"Good evening, Jenny," the Duchess had already walked up to Jenny, "the colors you chose for this banquet are really extraordinary." She was referring to Jenny's dark purple evening dress that was shining with fluorescent light. "Nice to see you again, ma'am." Yanni moved her right foot back and slightly bent her knees.Although Willis is not recognized by the royal family, she demands royal courtesy wherever she goes.
