Chapter 534

Just as Dr. Scarlett's mind was about to wander off, Amelia had invited her to take a seat.

Dr. Scarlett sat down on the edge of the sofa under great pressure.

As the host, Amelia wanted to make a cup of tea for Dr. Scarlett when the pot and cup in her hands were suddenly taken away by a man in black from behind the sofa.

The man worked so quickly that Amelia was taken by surprise. When she finally snapped from the reverie, the pot had been placed back in its original position and the cup of tea was in Dr. Scarlett's hand. The two women stared at the cup, their eyes wide open. Was the man a human or a ghost? How could he be so fast?

After a long pause, Dr. Scarlett asked in a weak voice, "Excuse me, may I ask... Who are these people?"

Amelia used Patrick's words and said, "Oh, they're all bodyguards of the house."

Dr. Scarlett could easily make out more than a dozen men there...

She gave a hollow laugh and said, "That's a lot of bodyguards, isn't it?"

It was showing how unsafe this home was! Was it too late for her to resign now?

Sensing Dr. Scarlett's fear, Amelia reassured her hurriedly, "You don't have to be afraid. It's very safe here. With them here, even a fly can't get in!"

"Then... can any fly get out?" Dr. Scarlett asked, hinting a question within another question.

Amelia was confused for a while and then burst out laughing. "Dr. Scarlett, they're really not kidnappers. You can come and go whenever you like!"

Dr. Scarlett patted her chest, relaxed, and expressed, "That's good!"

After a while, Dr. Scarlett, who had calmed down, found her previous thoughts hilarious. "What was I thinking? How could someone with a status such as Mr. Patrick's be a kidnapper?"
