Chapter 187: Chapter 187 Waiting For A VIP

Eudora gritted her teeth, “Why can’t you agree to it? First, this drawing is excellent. If this becomes a reality, Valiant East will get to set a precedent. Second, if you give the newbie a chance, it allows the staff of Valiant East to know that the company is willing to entrust and promote newcomers, and third, you are doing all this to make me stay here, aren’t you? Now that I’m staying, what else do you want?”

The more Amos listened to her words, the higher the corners of his mouth raised.

She was indeed his lady! After so many years, she was still so smart.

Clint and Anya, who stood next to her, felt ashamed. They thought that Eudora didn’t know what they were up to. But it turned out that she already knew everything all along.

But even if she knew, she was still willing to help Anya.

All of a sudden, Anya was choked up.

“Miss Eudora, I…”

Eudora shook her head at her. “Mr. Granger, are you going to agree to it or not? Otherwise, I’ll leave!”

“Who said that I’m not going to agree to it? Just because you are staying, I agree!”

Eudora looked at him speechlessly, “When will the project begin?”

“Tomorrow!” Amos Granger said.

“Got it!” After that, Eudora turned around and went out.

Anya hurriedly caught up with her. “Miss Eudora, I’m sorry I lied to you. But you must believe me, that drawing is real, and the reason why I wanted to work in the design department is also true!”

Eudora nodded. “I believe you.”

Of course, she believed Anya. Eudora agreed because she saw Anya’s sincerity! Otherwise, would she be so stupid?

Anya’s heart was full of mixed feelings. She put her arms around Eudora’s waist and sobbed, “Miss Eudora, thank you.”

Eudora reached out and patted her back. “Don’t cry, I still prefer the domineering and carefree Anya that I once knew!”

“Alright!” Anya nodded violently.

Then Eudora said, “I’ll be leaving now. See you tomorrow!”

…

After coming out of Valiant East, Eudora took a look at her watch and realized that it was nearly time to pick Juju from school, so she hurriedly took a taxi to the kindergarten.

Because she was in a hurry, she did not notice Wendy behind her. She was looking angrily at the direction of her cab and quickly caught up to her.

After Eudora picked Juju up from school and headed home, she made a phone call to the management of her current project. Their project was basically stable now, hence they did not refuse to Eudora’s conditions but told her to keep in contact if they needed her.

After that, Eudora tucked Juju into bed.

However, Eudora couldn’t seem to fall asleep when she lay down on the bed. She kept questioning whether she had made a mistake. She had promised herself not to have anything to do with Amos again, but she ended up entangling herself with him again.

However, when she saw Anya that day, she really couldn’t help herself.

She knew how Anya felt. Five years ago, she saw with her own eyes how the man who had promised to spend the rest of his life with her made the decision to get engaged with another woman. Her heart had shattered into a million pieces on that day.

But Anya was even more pitiful. At least Amos was still alive, but Anya’s husband was never going to come back.

With a sigh, Eudora tossed and turned in bed again.

“Forget it. After finishing this project, I must go back to Italy.”

Thinking of this, Eudora closed her eyes and forced herself to sleep.

…

The next morning.

At the entrance of Valiant East, Clint stood there in a suit early in the morning, with breakfast in his left hand and keys in his right, as if he was waiting for someone.

The employees who went in and out of the office were shocked by this scene. “What’s going on? Why is Assistant Zuckerberg here so early today?”

“He must be waiting for Mr. Granger, right?”

“Maybe! Is President Granger coming in early today? Is he here to do a spot check on us?”

Everyone felt a chill down their spine and hurriedly returned to their seats. “No, I have to check on yesterday’s work to see if there’s anything wrong.”

After a while, everyone finished checking. As expected, Amos’ car arrived at the entrance of the office.

But a couple of minutes later, Amos stepped out and stood beside the Clint, as if he was waiting for someone.

Everyone was extremely shocked at the scene.

“My goodness, what am I witnessing today? I’ve been in the company for eight years. This is the first time I’ve seen President Granger arriving at the office so early to wait for someone.”

“So, who’s the VIP that is coming today?”

“Maybe it’s the chariman?”

“It’s possible!”

After all, the chairman of the board of directors seldom came to the office since Amos took over the company five years ago.

“Even President Granger has to greet him in person. Shouldn’t we be there too?”

Everyone felt that it made sense. Quickly, they went down to the lobby and lined up behind Amos and Clint dutifully, waiting for the arrival of the very important figure.

…

After dropping Juju off, Eudora quickly rushed to Valiant East.

It was her first day of work at this office. Although she was only a substitute, she did not want others to question her professionalism.

After getting out of the taxi, she straightened her clothes and went in. She was stunned as soon as she entered the door.

Everyone in Valiant East was waiting in the lobby as if they were waiting for someone important.

Especially when she came in, all eyes were on her, and they suddenly looked so stressed.

Eudora thought, “Who could this VIP be? He even had all the staff here waiting for him. Should I go over and stand with them too?” Thinking of this, she walked silently to the back of the line and stood there obediently.

At the same time, Clint was about to greet her, but when he turned around and saw rows of people standing behind him, his mouth twitched.

“What are you all doing here?”

Everyone was confused. “We are here to welcome the VIP!”

Clint was speechless. He turned his head and glanced helplessly at Amos. He thought to himself, “Boss, they probably misunderstood because you’re here too.”

Amos pretended that he didn’t understand what Clint meant. Then he said, “Clint, you’d better deal with this.”

After that, he went upstairs with an innocent look on his face.

Clint did not know what to say.

How pitiful. The boss waited for his wife to arrive, but now that she was here, he asked him to settle this matter for him. After taking a deep breath, Clint forced himself to say to the crowd, “It’s alright. I made a mistake. No one’s coming today. You all can leave now!”

Everyone was speechless.

Upon seeing this, Eudora turned around and was about to leave as well, but she was stopped by Clint. “Miss George, hold on.”

“What’s up?”

Clint handed her a takeaway container and said, “Breakfast! And here’s the key.”

Eudora suddenly came to a realization. “Were you waiting for me?”

Clint grinned instantly, “Miss George, you are so smart. Not only me, but President Granger was also waiting for you!”

Eudora quickly took the key in his hand and pretended not to hear the last sentence. “Thank you, I’ll go straight up. As for breakfast, you can give it to someone else. I’ve already eaten!”

After that, she disappeared out of his sight.

Clint let out a helpless sigh. “Oh, President Granger. You still have a long road ahead of you if you want to get your wife back!”
