In the few minutes Amelia Clarke was away, the waiter had already served the meal.
Viola Harris and Dorothy Brown were both waiting for Amelia Clarke to return so they could eat together.
Seeing Amelia back, Viola picked up her fork, speared some noodles into her mouth, and said after a moment's reflection, as if she figured something out, "Amelia, do you think the person who wanted to kidnap you could be someone from the Collins or the Sheldons?"
"Why do you ask that?" Amelia responded calmly, as if the near-kidnapping hadn't involved her at all.
"I heard from Mia," Viola continued. "She said you have an aunt from the Collins family, and a step-uncle as well. You see, originally if you weren't here, the entire inheritance would definitely be theirs. Now that you appear out of nowhere and considering how much your grandmother and your granny spoil you, it's certain you'll get a share of the property. Do you think your aunt and step-uncle could do something?"
