At the Ramsay Mansion.

"You're back, Ms. Amelia."

"Mm." Amelia took off her shoes before she glanced at the servant who was standing at the door. She asked, "Who else is home?"

"Madam and Miss Brittany are both at home, Ms. Amelia."

"Oh, have they eaten?"

"No. They haven't."

"That's great. Call me when dinner is ready."

I'm starving.

With that said, she put on her slippers and entered the house.

As soon as Amelia entered, she saw Alice and a couple of ladies having tea at the hall. It seemed as if they were having a great time.

Upon closer inspection, she immediately found out that they were all Alice's close friends. Ever since George fell sick, it has been some time since she last saw them paying a visit to the house.

Alice was sitting with her back facing Amelia when she first came in. That was why Alice had not realized her presence. It was her friend who noticed Amelia. She could not help but acknowledge Amelia's presence warmly, "Hey, Alice. Amelia is back!"

"Ah!" Alice immediately turned around as soon as she was being reminded by her friend. She had not been expecting Amelia at this time. After all, Amelia had told her earlier that she was going to stay over on Land of Fragrance in order to take care of Patrick.

The truth was Amelia did intend to stay at the hospital and take care of Patrick. However, Patrick insisted that she should go back home. There was no way that she could make him compromise on that.
