Chapter 339 May I Hold Your Hand?

• George had to negotiate with General Bernard out of love for his dear grandson. Nobody knows the details of their agreement, but General Bernard eventually accepted Amelia's proposal. Fearing the tormented souls would linger his precious grandson, George established a charitable foundation to perform good deeds on his behalf. He later built several schools in remote areas, gaining a reputation as a philanthropist, though that's a story for another time.
• The situation was settled, and Amelia and the others returned. The landlady rubbed her eyes repeatedly, thinking she must be seeing ghosts.
• "You've got some nerve coming back here!" she yelled, storming out like a market hag. These three had crossed Mr. Cedric, hadn't they already been taken away? Rumor had it they were sent to Cannibal, that lunatic killer. How could he have spared them? Did they escape? The landlady was shyly planning to report them, while Amelia just gave her a cold glance.
