When Shawn came to his senses, he found that Gu Jinnian had held Amelia's hand.
"Madam Ramsay, I'm Neal Gibson. Nice to meet you."
After Gu Jinnian officially greeted Amelia, he immediately let go of Amelia's hand.
After that, Gu Jinnian's eyes, which were hidden under the brims of his hat, slightly gazed in the direction of Patrick.
A hint of understanding flashed through Amelia's heart as she saw this scene.
She said in a casual tone, "Mr. Gibson, nice to meet you too. "
The next second, a lively voice sounded in Amelia's ears. It was brimming with excitement. "Uhm, Ms. Ramsay... I'm Shawn Quentin!"
Amelia looked in the direction of Shawn and saw that Shawn had handed over his right hand.
Seeing this, the smile on her face deepened. She reached out to shake hands with him. "Hello, Mr.
Quentin." "Ms. Ramsay is more elegant in reality than in the
news."
"Thank you."
Amelia believed Shawn's words were from the bottom of his heart.
Because among them, only Shawn did not glance at Patrick when talking to her.
In the same way, Winifred, who was the most mean to her, should be the closest to Patrick among the three. But there was also a possibility that she was always cynical.
Secondly, it was Gu Jinnian.
Gu Jinnian took a look at Patrick after shaking hands with her. Obviously, he was concerned about Patrick's reaction.
Upon hearing Shawn praising Amelia forthrightly, Xu Wan said shamelessly, "Dummy! Do you know the meaning of don't judge a book by its cover? Elegant? Are you blind?"
Shawn's face changed, and he said. "Hey, did you your menstrual came today? Your words are so mean..."
"What's wrong with me?" Xu Wan stared at Shawn. Her eyes were full of jealousy and hatred. "Can't I tell the truth?"
At this moment, Neal said in a deep voice, "Well, since everyone has known each other, shouldn't we visit Gramps Hopper now? Don't forget our purpose."
Shawn exclaimed, "Yes, yes, we'd better go in and see Gramps Hopper. We have to go back to the army early in the morning tomorrow!"
After that, he quickly opened the doorknob and ran into the ward as if he was escaping.
Xu Wan glared at Shawn's back and scolded, "Useless!"
"Patrick." Gu Jinnian turned to Patrick, who was being unfathomable and said. "Let's get in too."
Patrick nodded. As the host, it was impossible for him not to entertain the guests.
It was hard for Amelia to tell what she felt when seeing that Patrick did not even look at her, and walked in side by side with Gu Jinnian.
It was as though they had never met each other before.
But at the same time, she was also clear that Patrick was different from the other ex-husbands who were being 'cuckolded'.
Other men would definitely try their best to disentangle themselves from the ex-wife who was depravity. Whenever they met, they could not wait to act like they did not know each other.
But Patrick earnestly wished to ask people around him to know his ex-wife's name and how she looked like...
Gramps Hopper. If she argued with her, perhaps
Gramps Hopper would be in a dilemma.
However, Winifred's aggressive accusation had already exceeded the limits of her tolerance.
"Ms. Hugh, if I were you, I wouldn't have revealed my disgust so obvious."
Xu Wan rushed to Amelia in a few steps because Amelia had hit the nail on her head.
Taking advantage of her height and aura as a soldier, Xu Wan attempted to give Amelia an oppression. "What can you do to me even if I don't like you?"
She was not like a soldier at all, but an army ruffian.
Amelia looked at Xu Wan's eyes under the brim of her hat and stated a fact lightly, "Gramps likes me very much."
"So what if Gramps Hopper likes you...?" Winifred seemed to have thought of something, and her voice suddenly stopped.
"It seems that you knew it very clear in your heart."
Looking at Winifred's reaction, Amelia nodded with satisfaction and said, "You've said that your father used to work under gramps. They said great trees are good for nothing but shade. I suppose your father are now at a relatively good position, right?"
Xu Wan bluffed, "That...that's right! My father's rank is high! Why do you ask?"
Amelia raised her chin slightly and said, "Your father could not get promoted overnight. You know, I'm gramps' favorite person. If you offended me, who knows I might misspoke some nonsenses in front of him..."
Before she could finish her words, Xu Wan's voice changed. "Are you threatening me?"
Glancing at Winifred's clenched fist, Amelia held back the impulse to retreat and said quickly, "The reason why your father asked you to come here is to validate your presence in front of gramps and pave the way for your career in the future. However, you're now focusing on finding trouble with me and leave him behind instead. If I were your father, I would have already fainted while crying in the bathroom."
