Andrea smiled and said, "Hey young lady, you don't have to be so nervous. I may have said it too seriously just now. It's just that your Uncle Quartley missed you."
Amelia laughed dryly. She had no choice but to act carefully. In order to have Sawyer sign the contract with her, she had made up to them, be it old or young!
Andrea took a closer look at Amelia's attractive face. She found it more and more pleasing to her eye. What was more, Amelia once saved Ryan from asthma in the elevator by chance...
When Andrea spoke again, she could not help but became more friendly. "I heard from Ryan that you have become the new chairperson of the company at such a young age. You're really young and promising!"
"Uncle Quartley is flattering me. Actually, I'm just an acting chair. The company is on the verge of life and death currently. I happened to hearthat Mr. Sawyer was very generous, so after several twists and turns, I came here to sign a contract with him."
Although Amelia just said a few words, there was a worried look on her face, which made Andrea feel
that this matter was not ordinary.
Andrea said softly, "Young lady, to be honest, I've heard Ryan mentioning about your business sometimes before. I suggested, if your company is in trouble, just feel free to ask Sawyer for help, but..."
Amelia noticed Andrea's sudden pause and asked, "But?"
Andrea just said, "Nothing." It seemed that it was just an insignificant thing. "By the way, young lady, let me ask you something. You seem to have come to the island with Kaiden and left together. Are
you on good terms with each other?"
Andrea sudden change of the topic got Amelia stunned for a moment. She replied honestly, "We shall be referred to as business partners. It was Kaiden who introduced me to Mr. Sawyer."
Andrea laughed. "It's not an easy thing for Kaiden to get close to a girl."
Amelia knew what Andrea was referring to. She could not help but laugh. "That's right."
Andrea immediately said, "At first, I thought that you were Kaiden's girlfriend. Now it seems that you're still single?"
Upon hearing this, Amelia asked in disbelief, "Emm... Madam Andrea, didn't Uncle Quartley tell you about my relationship status?"
Andrea complained sweetly, "No, your Uncle Quartley protected you so well that he didn't reveal even a tiny bit to me."
Amelia comforted her and said, "Uncle Quartley must have thought that my matter is not that important, so he didn't talk about it."
This young lady's mouth was so sweet. Andrea nodded with satisfaction in her heart.
At this moment, Amelia stood up straight and said obediently, "Now let me formally introduce myself. My name is Amelia Ramsay. You can just call me Amelia."
Andrea nodded. "I knew it."
"Er?" Amelia said softly. Andrea clearly knew her name, but she still kept calling her young lady...
Forget it, it was all up to her. Amelia did not care too much about how she was called.
She continued, "In addition, about my relationship status, in fact... I am already married."
Andrea was stunned for a moment and said with a little disappointment, "I see. Who are you married to? As an excellent woman like Ms. Ramsay, your husband must also not be a nobody. Perhaps, I might have heard of him?"
The corners of Amelia's mouth twitched. After hearing that she was married, Andrea directly changed from intimately calling her 'young lady' to politely calling her 'Ms. Ramsay'.
In addition, Andrea seemed to be paying less attention to the news. Some time ago, the media had scrambled to make a fuss about the Apex Construction Corporation's affairs. Amelia had also apologized on camera. As long as Andrea read some news, it was not difficult to know who she was, not even mentioning who her husband was.
Keeping her thoughts, Amelia gracefully introduced Patrick, "My husband is Patrick Hopper, he is now serving in Roxxon Corporation."
Look at how modest she was! Anyone who knew the truth would understand what she actually meant by 'serving in'!
Although Amelia was often very unhappy with Patrick, she knew very well that once Patrick was introduced, it would bring more attention and respect to her.
However, Andrea's following reaction was way beyond her expectations.
Andrea's elegant face started to be in panic, while her arms around Abner also tightened uncontrollably.
"Ouch!" Abner felt uncomfortable and sprang to his feet.
Upon seeing this, Amelia quickly said to Andrea, "Madam Andrea, please be gentler. You seem to have strangled Abner!"
Having Amelia's reminder, Andrea immediately let go of Abner.
Abner was a little shocked. As soon as Andrea let go of him, he immediately ran to Amelia. He stuck behind her legs and was unwilling to move.
After Amelia shielded Abner with her hands, she looked back at Andrea.
Andrea had lost her composure. Although she felt puzzled, Amelia still said with concern, "Madam Andrea, are you okay? NôvelDrama.Org owns © this.
Andrea said in a trembling voice after a while, "Your husband is... Patrick Hopper? No wonder..."
No wonder Ryan refused to reveal more information about Amelia in front of her. It turned out that this was the truth!
Seeing how big Andrea's reaction was, Amelia could not help but recalled Patrick's vile attitude towards Ryan. Could it be that...
The two families were feuds?!
Also! Back then, had Ryan not revealed to her that his son had a grudge against Patrick?
And in the car just a moment earlier, Kaiden vaguely told her that he had a blood feud with Patrick!
Although it sounded exaggerated, Amelia did not think that it was groundless as she thought of Kaiden's cold expression when he said that.
If the Quartley's and Hopper's truly held grudges against each other, then where did the hatred originate from?
Seeing that Andrea was restless, Amelia thought that this was a good chance to uncover the truth. "Madam Andrea, are you okay? Why have you became so emotional since I mentioned Patrick? May I know the reason?"
Andrea frowned. As soon as she raised her eyes, she saw Amelia's innocent and confused eyes.
Amelia even questioning about her frustration, proved that Amelia had not know what had happened to the two families back then!
The two families had been in the state of hostile for many years, and this was all because of a lascivious woman from many years ago!
Originally speaking, ever since that incident, the two families would no longer be in contact with each other.
Unexpectedly, the thick ice between them was virtually broken by Amelia.
Thinking rationally, Andrea thought that she should expel Amelia from Sawyer as soon as possible, for the sake of the Quartley's.
But at the same time, Andrea clearly knew that Amelia was her husband's lifesaver. Furthermore, she was a rare person whom her grandson opened his heart to. Could she really going to be vicious in dealing with such an innocent young lady?
