Chapter 148 - 148: Not Seeing Guests
After breakfast, George wanted to bring Amelia to the Burton family. Yesterday, Uncle Glen said that Amelia’s father’s surname was Burton. After discussion, the Walton family decided to visit the Burton family. If Amelia was really of the Burton family’s bloodline, they had no reason to hide Amelia’s existence and selfishly make the decision on her behalf.
Coincidentally, there was a person in the Burton family who was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. It was said that he was the nephew of a small branch of the Burton family. He was living under someone else’s roof.
The situation was basically the same as what Uncle Glen had said. The Burton family was located near the Spencer family’s courtyard, but the Spencer family was located in the real military courtyard. The Burton family was only in a wealthy district where business and politics gathered.
The car slowly drove past the street. Amelia leaned against the window and suddenly exclaimed. She saw a woman in red waiting for a red light outside the street…
The reason why Amelia noticed this red-clothed woman was because there was a ghost lying on her back. When Elmer saw the red-clothed woman, he also exclaimed, “Another evil spirit?” From the crybaby ghost who ran away at the beginning, to the vain ghost on Evelyn, to this evil spirit in front of them… Elmer clicked his tongue and glanced at Amelia. He muttered, “Are evil ghosts so easy to find nowadays?” Others had gone through painstaking effort to find ghosts, but his disciple had evil ghosts knocking on her door.
Elmer said, “Mia, that evil spirit is called a cowardly ghost. Master will help you mark it.” After marking it, there would not be a situation like the crybaby ghost running away.
Amelia did not speak. She was looking at the man standing not far from the woman in red. The man was very tall and was dressed in black. His hair was slightly curled and hung in front of his eyes, making him look cold and handsome. Amelia looked at the man and had a strange feeling. She could not help but stick her head out.
“Mia, don’t stick your head out of the car window. It’s dangerous.” George carried Amelia back and closed the car window.
Alex was keenly aware that someone was looking at him. He looked up and saw a black Maybach drive past. A small figure flashed past.
In the Burton family’s magnificent dining room, Old Madam Burton was eating elegantly. At the dining table sat her son, daughter, and daughter-in-law, but her daughter-in-law was standing. She served Old Madam Burton with food, wiped her hands with a wet towel, and so on. The others ignored this scene and were used to it.
At this moment, the butler came in and said, “Master, Old Madam, the Walton family has come to visit. They even brought a little girl.”
Old Master Burton swallowed the food in his mouth unhurriedly and asked, “What’s the matter?”
The butler said, “I’ve asked around. The Walton family said that Fourth Young
Master is very likely the father of the Walton family’s young miss, so they came over to take a look. If it’s convenient, they hope they can test Fourth
Young Master’s DNA.” The butler kept calling them the Walton family, as if the Walton family was inferior to the Burton family.
Old Madam Burton rolled her eyes. “People here acknowledge us as relatives again? Tell them we won’t see them and let them go back!” She had also heard about the young lady of the Walton family. She knew that she was the child of the sickly Helena Walton. She did not know which man she had fooled around with. How could a child born from such a background have the cheek to come to the Burton family to acknowledge them as her family? Even if she was really a child of the Burton family, she did not intend to let such a child enter the Burton family.
At the dining table, a young man hesitated. “Second Aunt, lees meet them. After all, she’s from the Walton family…”
Old Master Burton said disdainfully, “So what if it’s the Walton family? Isn’t it just a little money?” What richest family? Wealth couldn’t compare to power. No matter how rich the Walton family was, it was nothing. However, the Burton family was different. The Burton family was in politics and had a good background. Moreover, the Burton family was rich as well!
The butler nodded and arrogantly replied to George, saying that their master and Old Madam were not free to meet guests. Then, without waiting for George to say anything, he turned around and closed the door.
George sat in the car, his face expressionless. The Burton family did not want to acknowledge Mia, and it was just as well that they were unwilling to share Mia with others. Mia was the young lady of the Walton family.
Amelia could tell that George was not too happy. She asked, “Eldest Uncle, why are we here?”
George’s expression softened. “Mia said that she wanted to look for Dad, so Eldest Uncle brought you here to take a look.” Yesterday, Old Master Glen had asked Amelia to find Michael Burton’s descendant. All these years, Old Master Glen had been focused on finding his daughter’s corpse and might not have noticed the new Burton family..
