Chapter 1010

Hendrix evaded the question. He didn't even bother correcting the old man, just spared me a quick glance, before continuing tointroduce everyone else.

Being old, it was natural for him to not be able to remember every single detail. Once the waiters served the main dishes,Hendrix and the old man started to chat.

I've always thought she lived in Hovell.

My grandmother met with Master Roberts later and had attained that mysterious yet exquisite box. If the Attwood family that livedin Asherton knew granny, it's sufficient to say that granny wasn't just some ordinary person from Hovell.

Ziglar chuckled. "This young lady looks rather familiar. | don't know where I've seen her before."

“Master Attwood, | heard you like to collect teacups, so | brought this set, from Jarold City. Please take a look and see if you likeit." Rowane said while handing the tea set over to Ziglar.

That quickly, everyone's attention returned to her.

The tea set was exquisite. With such meticulous workmanship, it was clearly captured the old man's fancy, who'd clearly fallen inlove with the purple pottery set.
