When Amos arrived had the old mansion, Old Master Granger had already gathered the whole family.
Bethany still looked as kind as ever. Next to her was his second uncle, Harry Granger, and his second aunt, Kaylene Yoder. The ladies were smiling, whilst the men looked glum. It was as if the two ladies were really happy for him.
However, Amos knew that they wanted nothing more than to see him fail in life.
He ignored the two of them and went straight to the old man.
âFather, were you looking for me?â
The Old Master was livid, and Amosâ words were like the fuse of a bomb being ignited. As soon as he finished speaking, the Old Master slammed the table.
âDo I no longer have a say in your life? How could you not discuss something as important as your marriage with me in advance? Am I not your father anymore? Do you not care about the Granger family anymore?â
After that, he started coughing violently.
Bethany immediately stepped forward to pat his back. âPlease donât be angry. Just tell him what you wantâ¦â
Harry quickly added, âBig brother, Bethany is right. Amos is now the President of Valiant East. He has his own plans now. You shouldnât act so recklessly as well!â
It seemed as if Harry was trying to diffuse the situation, but in fact, he was deliberately adding oil to the fire.
There was implicit sarcasm in his words to the Old Master. It was as if he was saying that the Old Master could no longer control Amos now that he had become the President of Valiant East.
If it were in the past, the Old Master would not have cared about this little trick at all. But now, he was already angry, and Harryâs words made him even angrier.
âBast*rd! Amos, youâd better explain it clearly to me.â
Amos held his ground and spoke after a long time, âThereâs nothing to explain. Itâs exactly what you saw.â
The Old Master was furious. âWell, itâs alright if you want to marry Wendy Liam. After all, she had saved you twice. But you must end your relationship with Eudora immediately!â
The Old Master was initially worried that Amos had always gone against him for Eudora. Now that he was willing to marry another person, perhaps it would be a good thing after all.
Seeing that Amos did not speak, Harry was excited again.
âAmos, what your father said made sense. Itâs all for your own good. You canât have two women in your life, can you? Besides, Miss George isnât that special anyway. If you and your father both could take a step back, wouldnât this matter be settled then?â
Harry and his family wanted Amos to marry Wendy. After all, it would not be difficult to win Wendy over. If she married into the Granger family, they would benefit from it.
âImpossible!â Amos said again. The Old Masterâs veins almost popped.
âSay that again!â
The rest of the people were either gloating or watching the scene with cold eyes.
Amos turned around, took out a report from Clintâs hand, and threw it on the table. âThis is Valiant Eastâs general report for this year. If you have anything to say, say it after youâd read the report!â
Hearing this, the Old Master reached out and flipped it open.
The next second, his face changed. âIs this really a report of Valiant East?â
Clint behind him immediately nodded. âYes, Chairman. Compared to last year, each of Valiant Eastâs projects has an increased profit of at least sixty percent this year. This is also the highest profit ever generated by Valiant East for so many years.â
Harry was dumbfounded. He didnât expect Amos to be so capable. He made Valiant East to what it was now in just less than a year.
For a moment, the mood on his face was also uncertain.
Seeing it was almost time, Amos said, âIâm marrying Wendy because she saved me. This is her wish, and I am granting it. However, this is my personal life, and I hope that you would refrain from interfering with it.â
The hall in Grangerâs mansion was so quiet that even the sound of a fallen needle could be heard.
Clint finally understood why Amos had asked him to bring the report before he came. President Granger really put in a lot of effort for Miss George.
âAmosâ¦â The Old Master said after a long while, âHow did you do it?!â
He won!
Clintâs admiration for Amos was surging by the minute.
Seeing that the tables had turned, Amos went up to talk to the old man about the companyâs management.
â¦
At the same time, Eudora was busy all morning. At noon, she cooked a bowl of soup and went to the hospital.
Since she had decided to leave Rosaville City, she thought she should pay him a visit before she left.
Gordon had woken up, and Felicia Maurice was feeding him. When Eudora came, Felicia was stunned and a smile crept across her face.
âEudora, youâre here.â
Eudora ignored her and went straight to the bed. She put the soup that she had brought on the cabinet. âWhat did the doctor say?â
Although Gordon was happy, he still said sulkily, âI am your father, and you didnât even address me so.â
Eudora pursed her lips but remained silent.
Gordon was a little disappointed. Felicia hurried over to meditate the situation. âEudora had always been a good cook. Letâs see what she cooked for you today.â
Only then did Gordon show a little smile and said, âShe does have good cooking skills.â
The two of them echoed each other and were very close. Eudora looked at them and felt like an outsider. She turned around and was ready to leave.
Gordon suddenly stopped her and said, âEudora, wait a minute. I have something to tell you.â
Feliciaâs fingers, which were holding the bowl, froze. She stood there, unmoving. After thinking for a while, Gordon motioned to Felicia, âYou should look for Kesha!â
He was indirectly asking her to leave the room. Felicia frowned and looked at Eudora. Her smile quickly returned. âYou two chat. Iâll look for her.â
After she left, Gordon looked at his daughter carefully.
She had lost weight and was even thinner than when she was in the Meyer Family.
Thinking of this, he couldnât help but sigh again.
âIâve told you that you would not be happy if you stayed by Amos Grangerâs side. Heâs getting married. Do you know that?â
It turned out that Gordon had already heard the news. Eudora smiled bitterly in her heart, but her face was still calm. âYes, I know.â
âWhy didnât you leave him even after you know that? What else are you thinking about?â
âYes, I know.â It was still the same three words.
Gordonâs heart ached with anger. âI know that you hate me, but Iâm still your father. Would I be happy if youâve been wronged? I knew I had crossed the line when I said those words to you the last time. No one could be blamed for what had happened between me and your mother. It is unfortunate that we had different personalities. Sheâs too stubborn, and youâre exactly like her. But whatâs the result of your stubbornness? You should have seen it by now, right?â
Gordon sighed and suddenly said, âYou had suffered a lot when you were back in the United States. We all think that it was a good thing that you lost your memory. And I stand by my words even now. Leave Amos and live a good life.â
After that, he suddenly moved and took a cheque from under the pillow.
âTake this. You must take good care of yourself in the future.â
Eudora looked at the cheque, her heart full of mixed feelings.
