Patrick said leisurely, "Owen mentioned it over the phone."
Nora's eyes flashed and she asked nervously, "What else did he say?"
Patrick thought for a moment and answered, "Nothing else."
Nora did not quite believe it. "Didn't Owen mention the teacher's appearance or how old is she?"
Patrick smiled and did not answer her directly. "I think there's nothing special about all the women in the world in his eye except you."
Nora's face blushed.
It was strange...
No matter how Amelia and Florence comforted her and advised her, it was not as reassuring as a short sentence from Patrick.
At the entrance of the garden.
Huxton, who had finished parking the car, waited in the car for a while before he walked back slowly.
When he was nearby he saw Ashley wandering around in the garden. From her look, it was obvious that she was waiting for him.
A desire to run away arose in his heart.
Just as Huxton decided to walk around, a beautiful figure which he had long yearned for walked towards the entrance and came face to face with Ashley.
"Little girl, who are you?"
Scarlett who was wearing a white shirt and a blue skirt was looking tall and thin with well-shaped lines. Ashley looked at her with her eyes full of envy.
Ashley raised her head as high as she could and said crisply, "My teacher told me that we have to introduce ourselves before we ask the names of others."
Scarlett guessed that the other party was probably a part of The Hopper Family or The Ramsay Family because of the fact that she had the look and act of a noble. She was probably here to find Amelia.
"My last name is Scarlett Jagger, you can call me..."
"Aunty Jagger!" Ashely called out almost immediately.
Scarlett's mouth twitched. Why did she even felt that the girl in front of her was cute just a moment before?
Ashley blinked her big round eyes and said to Scarlett, "Aunty Jagger, can you please move aside? I am waiting for someone. You're blocking me. I am afraid that that person will not see me."
Hearing that Ashley was waiting for someone, Scarlett could not help but asked, "Aren't Mr. Patrick and Ms. Amelia back yet?"
This should not be possible.
At a time like this, one of them must have already arrived home.
Ashley shook her head and said, "I'm not waiting for my uncle or aunt. I'm waiting for Little Hux."
"Little Hux?" A hint of inquiry flitted across Dr. Scarlett's face. Could it be Huxton that the little girl was waiting for? "What's the relationship between you and Little Hux?"
Ashley shot an Aunty, you sure have lots of questions' look at her and said with certainty, "I want him as my lover!"
Scarlett was amused by Ashley's words and she could not help but chuckle.
Ashley was confused by her smile. "There sure are many weird people nowadays, why is she looking at me while smiling like a pervert. I better stay away from her." Ashely kept this thought in her mind.
Just as Ashley was moving backwards, Scarlett took out her mobile phone from her pocket and dialled a phone number.
Huxton who was hiding nearby felt a sense of depression when he heard his ringtone from his pocket. This was because it had already reached Dr. Scarlett's and Ashley's ears.
Hearing the two of them letting out a sound of surprise, Huxton came out from the corner and went to Scarlett's side. He then kissed her on her lips before she could say 'hi'.
"Hmm!" Scarlett's lips were covered. She could only reach out and pushed Huxton away. There was a child here!
