Amelia shrank her feet and said, "Savannah, I am not used to being served since I was young. So, please go easy on me."
Seeing Amelia replied so earnestly, Savannah could not help but be curious, "Ms. Ramsay is such a noble lady. Didn't your husband arrange some personal servants for you?"
Amelia was stunned for a moment. "Huh? Are you referring to Patrick?"
Savannah nodded. "Exactly."
Amelia scratched her temples and said, "We used to have a butler, but eventually..."
Stunned, she directly omitted the unpleasant part and said, "He resigned because he wanted to get married. We have not hired anyone else to serve us ever since."
"Well..." Savannah sympathetically looked at Amelia and euphemistically said, "It seems that Mr. Patrick is one who isn't extravagant."
Amelia smiled dryly. She thought that Savannah was just being polite. A man who was willing to buy a luxury apartment for his teacher definitely did not deserve to be described as 'not extravagant'.
At the end of the day, it was just Patrick not pampering Amelia!
Since Abner was asleep, Savannah and Amelia seized the chance and started to chat softly.
Amelia got to know about Savannah's past. Savannah had been working with Ryan since she was young.
Later, she married a gardener working with Ryan and gave birth to a daughter and a son.
But according to Savannah herself, when her eldest daughter was very young, she once took her out to play. In an unguarded moment, her eldest daughter was taken away and had not heard from her since then.
After that, Savannah gave birth to a son. She did not expect that her little son would have a car accident in his second grade of primary school. He had amputated his shanks, and could only spend the rest of his life in bed and wheelchair.
As for Savannah's husband, the gardener died of liver cancer twenty years ago.
In general, Savannah's life was a tragedy.
It was not until Abner's appearance that brought her hope to her life!
For the sake of Abner, she quit her job at Ryan's place without hesitation and came to work at the
Streams Villa.
As for her crippled son, she brought him along with her. Sawyer settled him down at his private hospital for rehabilitation. That was also the place where Abner's leg injury was treated last time.
After listening to these affairs,
Amelia comforted Savannah out of sympathy.
Unexpectedly, Savannah immediately said, "Fortunately, I've been accompanied by Abner all the time. Otherwise, it would be meaningless for me to live in this world."
Momentarily stunned, Amelia said, "That shouldn't be. What about your son?"
It was really strange why Savannah gave her the feeling that only Abner was the most important person in her life.
