Chapter 569

"It's fine. Thank you for taking care of me on my way here. You've had it tougher than I did!" Amelia said sincerely.

Without Huxton's encouragement, she might not have crossed the bridge.

Huxton then answered, "Let's go. Well ask the villagers where Mr. Hopper is staying."

Er... Mrs..."

"Should I call her 'Madam Ramsay' or 'Mrs. Hopper'?" The secretary was caught in a dilemma.

"You should call me Madam Ramsay, just as before. Or you can call me by my name if you want," Amelia offered graciously.
