Chapter 5 Howlett Manor

The carriage moved forward slowly, and four horses pulled the carriage back and forth in the shade. The tall red pines around were like walking in the primeval forest!Such a view made Bruce feel refreshed for a while!
At the speed of the carriage, the journey of more than ten miles took more than an hour. This is a manor very close to the Wayne family's manor. It is a huge three-story building, like a castle.

Walking into the gate of the manor and coming to the front of the castle, the heavy gate is a bit mottled, but it is obviously a testimony to the long history of the owner's house. No one will paint it, so it has witnessed the history of a long manor.

After the gate, through the porch, a hall comes into view. The hall is about two to three hundred square meters. At one corner, a spiral staircase ascends slowly. Eight pillars with a diameter of about 1.5 meters stand in the square load-bearing wall. The arc is on the outside!

Facing the door is a huge bookcase with a lot of books on it. Bruce glanced at about a thousand books.

On one side of the bookcase, there is a hollow cabinet, and on the other side is a huge fireplace.This fireplace is a must have on those cold Alberta winters!

The whole manor is in the season of luxuriant foliage, and the vegetation in the yard grows extraordinarily lush.Green low trees and bushes are dotted in the manor.

Gardeners in twos and threes are trimming these plants to make them look more beautiful.

"Hey... Bruce is tired all the way? I'll take you to rest first!" John took off his windbreaker, handed it to the servant beside him, and said to Bruce!
"Aha... Let me see who's back, it's John! Who is this handsome guy, don't you want to introduce him?" A thick man with whiskers came out of the garden.

"This is my head gardener, Thomas!" John introduced to Bruce: "This is our neighbor, the young master of Wayne Manor, Bruce Wayne!"

"Hello, Master Wayne!" Thomas stretched out his thick arm, which was covered with a layer of calluses, which looked very rough.

"Hello, Thomas, your craftsmanship is good!" Bruce stretched out his hand and shook him, looking at the plants in the garden in front of him, admiring.

"Thank you for the compliment!"

"I'm going to send Bruce to rest first, by the way, is there anything going on in the manor these two days?" John asked.

"Nothing happened! Don't worry, my sir!" Thomas said.

"Let's go! Let's arrange a room for you! After taking a break, let's go see James!" John said to Bruce.

"Okay, Uncle John!" Bruce said.

The two walked upstairs, and the spiraling stairs looked like circles!After going up to the second floor, John took Bruce to the front of a room.

"Take a break first, and call Mary if you have anything to do, she is the housekeeper of the manor!" A middle-aged woman with wine-red long hair stood beside John, wearing a decent lady's suit, looking simple and capable.

"Okay!" Bruce was actually not tired, but it was the first time he left the range of Wayne Manor, so he decided to familiarize himself with the surrounding environment first!

This time Bruce came with four entourages, but these entourages were arranged to live in the cottages around the manor. In this era, the status of these entourages is similar to that of security guards in the 21st century.

In the room, a large bed was placed by the window, and a desk was the window. Bruce came to the desk and sat down!The warm sunshine made him feel very comfortable.

"Anyway, let's find a reliable ally first!" Bruce also has a sense of crisis. He is not Martha's biological son, which makes him a little embarrassed in Wayne Manor!Because Brian Wayne had another wife before he married Martha.

And his ex-wife, Bruce's biological mother died of dystocia when giving birth to Bruce, and then Brian married Martha when Bruce was two years old, and then had Ryder.

All this has led to the possibility that there may be brothers competing for inheritance in Wayne Manor in the years to come, and Bruce may not have the slightest way to gain the upper hand.

No one can deny that most of the current Wayne Manor is actually the property of the Martha family, because the Martha family is the only heir, so there is the current Wayne Manor, and the cooperation with Wayne Manor Many of the partners are regular customers of the Martha family.

Bruce is too young, plus he doesn't know anything about business, and the things he is good at don't exist now, which has caused a sense of crisis in his heart now!

It is so difficult to be a young master of Michong!This is what Bruce is thinking now. He never minds speculating on others with the darkest psychology, even if this person is his stepmother!
An hour later, Bruce walked out of the room and went downstairs!John is in the garden, talking to a boy sitting on a deck chair.

The brown-haired boy's face was pale, showing a sickness. Bruce was no stranger to this color. In his previous life, he had such a complexion. The long-term irregular work and rest time and the poison of junk food made his body constantly In a state of being on the verge of collapse!
And the boy in front of him is even more so, even the blue blood vessels under the skin can be seen.

"Bruce, are you resting?" John greeted Bruce when he saw him coming.

"Uncle John, rest well! This is James, right? Hello, Uncle John is very proud to mention you, saying that you are the best boy!" Bruce said to the boy.

"Thank you!" The voice was dry, as if it was forced out of the throat.

"James, this is Bruce. He came from Wayne Manor. He came to see you!" John said.

"I'm so glad to meet you, James, you are a strong man, God will bless you! Your body will get better soon!" Bruce didn't believe in God, but once he traveled through it, he felt that there might be something different about this place. Funny old men may not exist!

"Thank you! I believe it too, but I can't play with you!" James was lying on the recliner, covered with a blanket.

"Okay, let's bask in the sun first, and I'll ask Mary to make dinner! By the way, James, remember to take the medicine later!" John stood up and walked towards the manor.

"Has your body always been like this? You should get better if you exercise more!" Although Bruce himself didn't exercise often, although his predecessor was thin, he was healthy and healthy. Apart from being unable to speak before, he rarely caught a cold.Bruce's voice also recovered after traveling, and he is now a very healthy person.
