Chapter 11 Hawkins Group Has Been Disqualified

Inside Hawkins Manor, Benjamin’s housekeeper, Patty, was already awaiting their arrival.

She took Benjamin’s jacket. When she saw Yvonne behind him, she was stunned.

“Ms. Quine, I’ve already prepared your room for you. It’s just up these stairs.”

By allowing her to stay at Hawkins Manor, Benjamin had indirectly agreed to marry her.

Therefore, it was only right that they share a room.

Benjamin frowned at her statement.

Madam Hawkins had been worried that there would be traces of Grace’s existence in the

house. So she had asked Patty to prepare a guest room for Yvonne.
