Chapter 932
Time passed by, minute by minute, while Amelia and Andrea were looking at each other.
Not until Andrea spoke again, "Ms. Ramsay, I lost my cool, I'm sorry." This content is © NôvelDrama.Org.
Amelia licked her dry lips and replied, "Madam Andrea, it's okay. Just now... It seems that it was me who had scared you more. I should be the one to apologize."
Amelia's calm personality had Andrea restrained her sadness and said meaningfully, "Ms. Ramsay, in fact, neither of us was at fault."
Amelia looked at her with confusion. "Madam Andrea, what do you mean by that? So whose fault was it?"
Andrea was silent and slightly lowered her eyes.
Amelia continued to ask softly, "Is there something stopping you from telling me the truth?"
Andrea said slowly, "That's not it. You are innocent. If I uncover the past, it's like dragging you into this mess. Then I'll have a hard time explaining it to Ryan."
Amelia said eagerly, "I'm not afraid! I have already realised that something seems to have happened between the Hopper's and the Quartley's, but no one has ever told me what it is! Madam Andrea, I'm begging you. Can you reveal it to me? It's fine even if it's just a little bit!"
Andrea took a deep look at her. Although she had quite a good impression of Amelia, it did not mean that she had to deal with her without reservation.
Since Amelia did not know anything, Andrea naturally would not want to be the first person to tell her about the past, which would only make the current situation more complicated.
After calming down, under Amelia's gaze that was full of curiosity, Andrea said, "Ms. Ramsay, in fact, what you are inquiring about is just some trivial matters. Since your husband has not told you before, that shall mean nothing to you. Why bother to come and ask me who is an outsider?"
When Amelia heard this, she knew that Andrea would not tell her the truth no matter what. She was disappointed, but of course she could not express it, "Well, what madam said is right. Since it is something that happened in the past, it must have nothing to do with me. I won't ask about it anymore."
Andrea nodded and then asked, "Ms. Ramsay, forgive me for taking the liberty. Since you're Patrick's wife, considering his strong ability, why would he allow you to come out and look for
investors?"
Moreover, Amelia could find all the way to Sawyer for him to be an investor. This made Andrea wary from the bottom of her heart.
Amelia said, "Because I don't want to rely on him for everything! I wish to get investment and revitalize the company through my own ability!"
Seeing Amelia being ambitious, Andrea gently said, "Oh?" Her face showed some disbelief.
Seeing that Andrea was staring at her with suspicion, Amelia had to say again, "I know that it's completely reasonable to help each other considering our spousal relationship. But it's hard for me to clarify the implication between us for now. Please trust me that my collaboration with Mr. Sawyer is absolutely sincere without any bad purpose. I think Uncle Quartley can testify for me on this!"
As soon as she heard the name 'Uncle Quartley', Andrea wanted to sigh. Why did Ryan not meet anyone else but got to know Patrick's wife and even owed her such a big favor? Was he not making things difficult for her deliberately?
In fact, regarding this, Andrea had misunderstood Ryan.
When Amelia came into contact with Ryan, she had a hidden marriage with Patrick. Hence, Ryan did not know that she was Patrick's wife. He only treated her as a staff in Roxxon Corporation. This was when their story begun.
While the two of them had thoughts in their minds respectively, they heard several soft knocks on the door...
Upon hearing the sound, Amelia immediately said obsequiously, "Madam Andrea, I'll go and open the door!"
But just as Amelia was about to leave, Abner who was beside her firmly grabbed her leg, showing his determination to be by her side no matter what!
"Abner?" Amelia lowered her head and saw Abner looking up at her. There was not much expression on his delicate face, but she could see unwillingness from his clear eyes.
Amelia immediately felt helpless and thought,
"What's going on? Why did he not hug his grandmother but chose to attach to me?"
Andrea was already doubtful about the fact that she was Patrick's wife. At this moment, would she think that she was here to kidnap her grandson?
Thinking of this, Amelia immediately stole a glance at Andrea with uneasiness.
Seeing Amelia secretly glancing at her, Andrea said timely, "Ms. Ramsay, it seems that Abner was scared by my actions just now. He can't leave you now so let me go and open the door."
Amelia gently breathed a sigh of relief.
Fortunately, Andrea was a sensible elder. When she saw Abner hiding behind Amelia and refusing to come out, she immediately realized that it was her problem.
"Okay, sorry to trouble you," Amelia said politely.
"Not at all." Andrea turned around and walked towards the door.
The door was opened and Savannah was standing outside. She said with her head down, "Madam, dinner's ready."
Andrea said absent-mindedly, "Alright."
Savannah did not dare to look around. She stared straight at the floor and asked, "Madam, do you need me... to serve Abner?"
Andrea subconsciously looked into the room and saw Amelia talking to Abner with her head down. The scene was warm and loving that the two of them looked like mother and son!
If this scene had happened before she knew Amelia's true identity, Andrea would have felt touched on top of being shocked!
But since she already knew, Andrea could only say they had such a 'doomed fate'!
Not only her husband, but also her grandson, had a special affection towards the young lady in the room. The point was that this lady was Patrick's wife!
"Madam, what's wrong?"
Andrea hurriedly got back to her senses, tried to put on a smile and said to Savannah, "Abner and Ms.
Ramsay are getting along well. She can take care of Abner tonight."
Savannah replied, "Yes, madam."
Savannah then turned around and waited outside the room quietly.
Seeing this, Andrea did not know whether to laugh or cry. "Savannah, you really care about Abner too much! Sometimes, I even suspect that he is your grandson."
Savannah lowered her head and said humbly, "Madam, you're making fun of me. I'm just doing my job."
Andrea said in a friendly tone, "It seems to be your true intention instead of your job. For so many years, you have sacrificed too much for Abner, as compared to Ryan and I."
Savannah could only reply similarly, "Madam, it isn't such a big deal. This is what I should do..."
Upon that, Andrea did not say anything else.
After so many years, Andrea was certain about Savannah's character. She was a person who contributed silently without expecting anything in return. Hence, overwhelming gratitude would be an insult to her.
