Chapter 487

Seeing the nod from Vicente, Brayden went to work at once. He must eradicate all hidden peril before Jack was arrested and interrogated. At the Land of Fragrance.

Amelia saw that it was almost noon, so she made a phone call to both Leah and Shawn, reminding them that they were supposed to meet at the Broad Avenue Restaurant later.

At this moment, the sound of the door opening and closing sounded from the first floor. Amelia's face stiffened for a second, thinking that Patrick must have come back.

Gently opening the door handle, she grabbed the railing of the second floor and peered down. It was the housekeeper. Amelia then remembered that today was the weekend and that the housekeeper had come over to do spring-cleaning.

The aunt heard the movement from ahead and looked up. When she saw Amelia, she asked with concern, "Miss Amelia, have you eaten yet?"

"I've eaten!" Amelia lied.

Then, she descended the spiral staircase, came to the front of the housekeeper, and said, "Auntie, I have to head out now. If Mr. Hopper comes back and finds that I'm not home, then you tell him that...I've left to meet a friend."

The housekeeper knew clearly about Patrick's tendency to always ask for the whys and wherefores. So she asked, "Who are you meeting with, Miss Amelia? I can inform Mr. Hopper better if you tell me." "This..." To see Milton? No way! Ryan? Even worse! How about Jessica? She had only met her yesterday! Then to see Lucy? Patrick would lecture her for being careless when making friends! Tell her the truth? Wasn't Patrick going to explode then?

After thinking for a while, Amelia said helplessly, "Just say that I went to the hospital to see my father."

"Okay!" The housekeeper agreed without suspicion.

At Broad Avenue Restaurant.

As soon as Amelia got off the car, she saw Leah standing at the entrance of the restaurant and glancing around.

Leah's eyes lit up at the sight of Amelia, approached her, and asked, "Amelia, what happened yesterday at the nightclub? I asked Patrick on the way back, but he refused to tell me."
