Chapter 30: Fainted

Before Emily could show her surprise, the person inside had opened the door. It was a forty-year-old woman. She gave a bright smile, "Welcome, distinguished guests. Please come in. Would you like to have dinner or stay?"

"Dinner first," said Harold, "then find a room for this Miss."

He briefly showed his identity as a driver. The woman immediately got it and nodded to Emily with respect, "Miss, please come in. What would you like to eat? And are there any dietary restrictions?"

"I'm not particular about food." Emily wore a polite smile.

She had never seen this woman before. Thus, she should have moved away after the tea manor was purchased.

The tea manor is big with its back door led to the tea plantation, where visitors were allowed. But a path through the North Side was a must. Therefore, the guests living on the North Side were given a priority. Only after they agreed could the other guests visit there.
