Huxton looked at Amelia with mixed emotions. His throat as well as his eyes were extremely dry.
"Come on, get on the car with me now. Let's talk in the car!"
As Amelia spoke, she dragged Huxton into the car.
Following that, she drove the car and soon they disappeared from the sight of the men in black.
Each of them had a serious look on their faces. Someone then said, "Madam has gone with Huxton. Quick, make a phone call to inform sir!"
On the other side.
After driving the car away from Land of Fragrance, Amelia casually parked the car on the wide and deserted street.
She let go of the steering wheel and turned around to ask Huxton who was hanging his head, "What are you going to do next?"
Huxton did not say a word. He himself did not know what to do either.
He had been following Patrick since he was young. He had learned all the skills for him. The only purpose of his life over the years was to serve
Patrick, but now his master said, 'I don't need you anymore.'
What should he do?
Amelia saw the confusion on his face and felt a sense of guilt. He became embroiled in this because of her. "Well, if you have any relatives or somewhere to stay in Northville, I'll help you settle down first, and then find a chance to beg for Patrick's mercy!"
Hearing this, Huxton became more depressed. "Hmmm, I was an orphan. My adoptive parents abandoned me when I was twelve years old. I made a living by swindling in the city. Then, there was a time when I was beaten up by a group of security guards under the bridge. It was Mr. Hopper who found me."
Without having to listen to the latter part of the story, Amelia could guess that Huxton had already made up his mind to return Patrick's favour of saving his life by serving him until his last breath.
"A few years ago, he was hurt by Sissi and left the castle for me to take care of. Then he travelled abroad by himself. At that time, I couldn't always be with him, but at least I knew that he needed me. Unlike now..."
Even though Huxton had downplayed his past, it was not difficult for Amelia to learn about his dependence on Patrick. What an ungrateful person!
All the more reason why she hated Patrick.
Rolling her eyes, Amelia thought of a person who could cheer Huxton up. She said happily, "Huxton, I have a place for you now."
Huxton said distractedly, "Madam, you'd better forget about it if it's your house. Ms. Brittany doesn't like me."
"No..."
"If it's a hotel, then there's no need to splurge out on that."
"No! It's definitely a good place for you to be happy and forget everything!"
After that, Amelia turned the car around and headed in another direction before Huxton could voice his doubts.
At the same time, at Golden Sunshine...
'Golden sunshine' was the name of a high-end residential building along the river. At this time, a man and a woman were standing outside a house that was being renovated.
The woman was so beautiful that the renovators in the house frequently looked back at her.
