Jocelyn's words clearly intended to drive a wedge between Amelia Clarke and Emily Collins in the realm of affection.
Amelia Clarke, who has always been obedient, could not fail to discern the implication in Jocelyn's words.
Her remarks ostensibly comforting Jocelyn and criticizing herself, covertly emphasized to Jocelyn who the true family of Emily Collins was, and also hinted at the hidden meanings in Jocelyn's words to Emily Collins.
However, it was evident that Emily Collins did not catch the hints from Amelia Clarke, nor did she realize anything inappropriate in Jocelyn's words.
After all, Emily Collins had been close with Jocelyn for over a decade, where would she suspect ulterior motives in Jocelyn's words without any reason?
However, Amelia Clarke's words saddened Emily Collins, who, holding chopsticks, took Amelia Clarke's hand, saying, "Why say such things? How could I ever blame you? To have you care for me is my fortune."
