Amelia had thought that Kaiden had brought Ryan and his wife with him, but to her surprise, it was him and Abner.
A few seconds later, Amelia noticed that something was wrong with Abner.
She could not help but exchange a look with Kaiden, only to see that the word "please" had been written in his eyes.
"Come in."
When Anya saw her coming in with a young man and a child, she asked, "Madam, who are these two?"
Amelia said lightly, "They are all my good friends. Anya, you don't have to serve us here. Go and take care of Cicily."
"Yes." Anya replied and left.
After looking at Anya's back, Kaiden complained to Amelia, "Why did she look at me and Abner like a thief just now? Do we look like bad people?"
"Don't take it to heart. Anya just cares about me." Amelia said. Anya was specially hired by George for her. There was no need to think about his intention.
It was just a small thing, so Kaiden didn't take it to heart. He turned his head and said to Abner, "Why can't you let it go when you've already come to Amelia's house? You usually call her 'Amelia' or 'Amelia', don't you?"
When he said this, Kaiden felt a little awkward. According to the seniority, Amelia was her cousin, and naturally, she was Abner's aunt.
However, Amelia didn't admit that she was the daughter of the Home of Quartley at all, so he naturally couldn't let Abner change the way he addressed her.
Hearing this, Abner remained indifferent. However, if one observed him carefully, one would find that his eyelids moved slightly.
Amelia was more observant than Kaiden, so she saw it.
"This child..." Kaiden shook his head and said to Amelia, "Ever since he knew that my cousin had passed away, he has shut himself in a dark room all day and never talked to anyone. I also heard from my aunt that he has never cried. This is too abnormal, isn't it?"
Amelia's expression gradually became serious. A normal child would have cried a long time ago because of the loss of his father, let alone Abner, who had always admired Sawyer. However, he did not cry, which showed that he had buried all his sadness in his heart.
"I can't let it go on like this, so I brought him here to look for you."
"Well, let me have a try."
Hearing this, Kaiden said, "Okay! You can try as you like. I won't disturb you!"
After he finished speaking, he stood up and wandered to other places.
"Abner, now there are only the two of us left. Let's talk in private for a while." Amelia squatted in front of Abner and tried to hold his two small hands that were placed on his knees.
As a result, she grasped them smoothly, and he did not intend to struggle.
Amelia paid attention to his expression and whispered, "Abner, do you know that I almost died that night?"
Hearing this, Abner's palm shrank, and Amelia, who was holding his hand, noticed it.
She continued, "When I was grabbed by the neck as a hostage, I was very scared, because I didn't want to die like this. Later, the man pushed me into his car and sped all the way on the road. As a result, the traffic police started to chase and intercept us.
In order to escape, he ordered his men to shoot at the crowd. Many of them were injured and died, but he didn't care at all, because in his eyes, those passers-by were just tools to help him escape. But Abner, do you think those passers-by were wrong?"
"Amelia... Amelia..." Abner grabbed Amelia's clothes and asked with tears, "Is my father really as bad as you said?"
Amelia said, "He is much worse than I said."
Therefore, Abner cried even louder.
"..." Kaiden was stunned for a moment before he asked in confusion, "Wait, what did you tell him about my cousin's bad deeds?"
Amelia looked at him and asked, "Is there anything wrong with being honest?"
Kaiden choked and said with a flattering smile, "But he is still so young. What if there's a psychological shadow?"
"Ever since young, didn't Abner suffer enough?" Amelia said bluntly, "The child who grew up in this kind of family environment is not as fragile as you think. By the way, didn't anyone tell him about how Sawyer killed the others?"
Kaiden shook his head. "How dare we? Abner admires my cousin so much, and he is still so young."
To put it bluntly, he was afraid that Abner was too young to bear it. However, Amelia said, "But he has the right to know what kind of person his father was and treat it as a lesson."
*
At dinner time, as expected, Patrick couldn't come back because he had to attend a meeting. Amelia asked Kaiden and Abner to have dinner on the Land of Fragrance.
When Kaiden and Abner were not paying attention, Anya said to Amelia seriously, "Madam, if Sir knew that you left a male friend to eat at home, I'm afraid that he would be jealous, right?"
Amelia looked at her meaningfully and said, "Anya, I know that you have already secretly called my father and told him that they're at my place. My father taught you this sentence, didn't he?"
