Wendy went straight back to her apartment after leaving Caleb's place.
When Auntie Agnes saw that she was back, she quickly ran up to her. "Miss, you're finally back. Where did you go last night?"
"Oh, something came up at the office. I have been busy all night long!"
Auntie Agnes nodded. "Then I'll go and get something for you to eat!"
"No need!" After saying that, Wendy added, "Did Amos look for me?"
"No!" Auntie Agnes shook her head. "Mr. Granger would have called you if he wanted to see you!"
"Oh, right!" Wendy nodded and headed to take a shower.
After coming out, she thought through it again and decided to buy something to bring over to the Granger family.
Old Master Granger was sitting in the garden after taking his medicine. A servant came over and reported, "Miss Liam is here to see you!"
The Old Master was stunned, and then he remembered the agreement he had with Amos Granger. He shook his head and said, "Tell her that I'm still sleeping."
Upon hearing this, the servant turned around and left. After hearing this, Wendy's grasp tightened at the things she brought with her. What an ungrateful old man. All her previous efforts had gone to waste!
As she was thinking about it, Wendy heard Kaylene's voice behind her, "Is that you, Miss Liam? What are you doing here?"
Wendy was stunned and looked up at Kaylene, who was dressed up fancifully. Five years ago, when she came to the Granger family for the first time, Kaylene seemed to have taken a liking towards her.
However, after she got engaged to Amos, they no longer contacted each other.
But now...
Perhaps, she had a lifeline in the Granger family after all - Amos' second aunt.
Thinking of this, Wendy immediately faked a smile, "Auntie, it's been a long time since we last met!"
"You don't say! That's because you rarely come to the old house over the past few years. I've been wondering when we would be able to meet to catch up. Are you free today?"
Wendy nodded hurriedly and said, "Yes, I am!"
"That's good. I was about to go shopping. Let's go together!"
Wendy nodded and got into the car with Kaylene. When the drive started, Kaylene said, "You seem to have lost a lot of weight recently. What's going on? Is Amos not treating you well?"
"No!" Wendy replied.
"That's good. You two should have been married by now. It's been five years. Don't you feel anxious about it?"
Wendy said lightly, "Amos is not ready yet."
"What? Aren't all men the same? Listen, I'm only telling you this because I like you; if you want to capture a man's heart, you have to first capture his body. Look at you, you must not have done it with Amos yet, haven't you?"
Wendy's heart skipped a beat. "No, not yet."
"I have something good here," Kaylene said, blinking her eyes.
In the evening, back in the old house of the Granger family.
A family of three was sitting in the living room. Sitting at the main seat was Old Master Granger and Bethany, his first wife. She had kept a very low-profile these few years, and didn't seem to hold any presence at home as well.
At this moment, Bethany lowered her head as she served the Old Master some food.
Harry couldn't help but ask, "Amos hasn't been home for dinner in a while, hasn't he?"
The Old Master didn't say anything, but he was still hopeful in his heart. His hands immediately froze at the question.
