After the fall of the George family, Gordon had nothing left to his name except for the house they were living in.
Eudora did not expect that he would give the cheque to her. She had always thought that he viewed her as a burden.
It turned out that he still cared about her.
All of a sudden, Kesha rushed into the room and screamed, âDad, where did you get this cheque from?â
Stunned, Gordon glanced at Kesha unhappily and asked, âWho asked you to come in?â
âYou are giving her our money. If I didnât come in, weâll have nothing left for us!â
Felicia Maurice followed her in with a disappointed look on her face. âGordon, didnât you say that we donât have any money at home?â
Gordon was displeased. âWhat are you two doing here? Eudoraâs mother left the money for her. Itâs not your money.â
Eudora looked at the cheque in a daze. Just as Kesha was about to grab it, she pulled it away.
Even if it wasnât left by her mother, the money belonged to the George family. She didnât want Kesha to squander the money away.
Keshaâs face turned livid with anger. âEudora George, werenât you full of pride? Whatâs wrong? Are you willing to take the money from the George family now?â
Eudora sneered. âDidnât you hear what Dad said? My mother left this for me. If you want it, you should get it from your mother. Your mother is standing right there.â
Felicia did not work ever since she married Gordon. She was not from a wealthy family, how could she have money or savings?
When Felicia heard Eudoraâs words, her face turned pale.
âI⦠Gordon, itâs all my faultâ¦â
Eudora was tired of her tricks. âAunt Felicia, youâre too old to pretend to be pitiful. Itâs time for you to use some new tricks, donât you think?â
Feliciaâs face darkened. Kesha stood in front of her mother and was about to fight Eudora. Gordon suddenly shouted, âEnough! Kesha, canât you understand what I said? That money is indeed left by Eudoraâs mother. Donât be unreasonable.â
âDad!â Kesha was angry. âWe donât have any money at home. I donât believe it.â
Gordon was so angry that his face turned livid. âYouâre already an adult. Do you expect your family to raise you for the rest of your life? When your sister was at your age, she was already earning her own keep!â
Seeing that Gordon was really furious, Felicia hurried forward and said, âGordon, itâs my fault. Donât be angry. Eudora, I apologize to youâ¦â
Eudora didnât want to entertain those shameless people anymore. She looked at Gordon and said, âI will make sure I live a good life.â
After that, she turned and left.
Even if the cheque was not left by her mother, Gordon had given it to her as her father. She would keep it and use it wisely.
â¦
Everpeace Group.
When Christopher entered the door in the morning, he saw Eudora teaching a new designer patiently. The designer was still a newcomer, so he didnât know a lot of things.
Eudora didnât mind the trouble even though she was teaching him over and over again.
Christopher stood behind her for a long time, but she did not notice him.
She got up from her seat when the new designer finally understood the work. When she turned back and saw Christopher behind her, she was startled.
âWhy are you here?â
The young designer hurriedly acknowledged, âPresident Gellert.â then he scurried away.
âWhat are you doing? Are you trying to produce new talents? Even if you are, you should at least find someone who has better comprehension skills!â Christopher said.
Eudora burst into laughter. âWhatâs wrong? Do you think that he has bad comprehension skills? Werenât you the one who recruited him?â
Christopher was embarrassed. âIâm not done talking yet. Isnât the project you mentioned to him your own project? What are you planning to do after teaching him?â
Eudora was stunned. âI⦠I have something else to do!â
âWhat? Have you found a new project?â Christopher asked.
âIâm looking,â Eudora said vaguely.
Christopher walked away suspiciously.
When he arrived at his office, the secretary was also confused. âEudora is acting really strange lately. Itâs as if sheâs about to resign, and sheâs teaching anyone she could get hold of. I wonder whatâs wrong?â
Only then did Christopher know why he felt that something was off. It was that.
It seemed that she was going to leave!
Christopher frowned when he recalled Eudora asking him about his designer friend. He quickly called his friend.
His friend was very enthusiastic and thanked him as soon as he called. Christopher took the opportunity to ask about Eudora, which he then spilled everything to him.
As expected, she had made plans to leave, but she wasnât planning on telling him.

After a few days of work, Eudora successfully handover the company matters to the relevant personnel. Even if she left, others could still complete the projects.
She looked at the clock on the wall later that night. It was already ten oâclock but Amos had yet to come back. She simply couldnât sleep, so she got up and started packing.
However, she realized she didnât have much to pack at all. Everything in the house were all prepared for her by Amos.
She ended up arranging some of her documents before laying down on the bed again.
She had already bought a flight ticket for the next day. If everything went well, she would arrive in America the day after next. She would finally leave Rosaville City, a place that was filled with her painful and sad memories.
Suddenly, there was a noise downstairs, making her jump. It must be Amos.
Sure enough, the next second, Amos had already pushed the door open and came in. Seeing that she was still awake, he slowly stepped forward to kiss her on the forehead.
âWhy arenât you asleep?â
Eudora said blandly, âI was about to.â
However, Amos seemed to have suddenly thought of something and went over to hug her. âGive me a moment. I have something for you.â
âWhat?â Eudora was suspicious.
The next second, he placed a document in front of her. âYouâll know once you look at it.â
Eudora took a look at the document. She was stunned. âIsnât this an agreement to change the legal representative for Everpeace Group?â
âYes!â Amos laughed. âI know you love designing. Everpeace Group initially belonged to the George family. I want to give it to you so that you donât have to work too hard in the future.â
He seemed to be very happy as he held her waist tightly. âIn the future, you could design whatever you want to. If you donât want to, I will find someone to run the company for you. Itâs okay if you want to keep Christopher Gellert in the company. He is a capable man.â
Eudoraâs heart was full of mixed feelings. After a long while, she said, âAre you always this generous to women?â
Amos paused and said, âNo, Iâm only generous to you. Wendy is an exception. She saved me.â
Eudora smiled bitterly and pushed the agreement away. âI donât want it.â
Amos frowned. âWhy?â
âEverpeace once belonged to my family, but now that youâve bought it, itâs yours. Even if I want it, I will buy it through my own efforts. I canât afford to accept your gift.â
