Eudora wasnât being unreasonable. She was truly doing it for the Holt Family.
Even a group as powerful as the Nolan Family was forced to change, let alone the Holt Family. Fortunately, the Holt Family was not being scrutinized at the moment. Otherwise, they would be in deep trouble.
After a long thought, Eudora called Leslie again.
âUncle Clarke, please contact Uncle Chilton again and tell him to gather his colleagues. Iâll tell everyone about it with greater details.â
Leslie felt helpless. It was still acceptable for him to join in Eudoraâs intervention, but to drag Samuel into it was a very bad idea. After all, it was known to everyone that he had an awful temper.
Moreover, he had always fancied the old ways of doing things. Why would he be willing to cooperate with Eudoraâs way this time?
âSamuel probably has a lot to deal with on his plate too, Miss Eudora. Shouldnât we talk about this matter at another time?â
Eudora knew what Leslie was thinking, but some matters just canât be delayed.
If they didnât change as soon as possible, she was afraid that things might turn bad.
âForget it, Uncle Clarke. I wonât make things difficult for you. Iâll get my assistant to contactâ¦â
âNo, thatâs not what I meant. If you insist, then Iâll inform him.â
She didnât know how Leslie had talked to Samuel, but Samuel eventually came with his men.
Eudora stated all her demands, and as Leslie had expected, everyone opposed the ideas strongly.
Most of them were young people who had joined the industry with pride. However, she was requesting them now to be as obedient as a child. What did she mean by going to the police upon facing difficulties? What nonsense was that?
Only elementary students would do such things. Everyoneâs face was filled with disdain.
Raymond mumbled to Samuel from behind, âMr. Chilton, I told you so. Miss George isnât suitable to be the heiress. The Holt Family will be crushed if this goes on. We could only depend on you now, Mr. Chilton!â
Samuel frowned tightly. He became unhappy as well.
âMissEudora, are you kidding us? Weâre real men, what are you trying to have us do?â
Eudora raised her eyebrows, âWhatâs wrong with that? I donât care whether you guys had done illegal things in the club in the past, but all of you are not allowed to do such things from this moment onwards. Also, I suggest that we advise our customers to not break the law either.â
Everyone fell quiet.
Someone started muttering in the background, âWhy donât we all disband and be excellent students then!â
âWhatâs wrong with being an excellent student? If the Holt Family wants to grow stronger, then the roots of this group need to change from its past.â
Raymond snorted, âMiss George, arenât you being too optimistic? How strong is the Nolan Family anyway? Mr. Nolan is a genius with a high IQ, but the Nolan Family still faced its downfall, right? Follow my instructions. Our working foundation in the past isnât bad, plus, Mr. Holt has built a strong foundation for us. Why should we change our foundation? There are many mouths to feed here. Do you think that the milkshake shops would bring us enough money to feed everyone, Miss George?â
Leslie grunted, âSamuel, control your subordinates. He has no right to speak here.â
Samuel didnât care and he replied, âIâm aligned with him. I disagree to change our work structure. People like us have walked this path for our entire lifetime, so what made you think that we will accept your change? Arenât you only embarrassing yourself at the end of the day?â
Eudora frowned, âUncle Chilton, how will we know that it wonât work if we havenât even tried once before?â
âEven if we tried, it would still be the same. I wonât agree to this!â
Before he could finish his sentence, someone in the crowd asked in a low voice, âThe new Holt Familyâs website is live?â
âWhat in the world? Why does our new website look like this? It even advises young people to abide by the rules and not go astray!â
âTruthfully speaking, Iâve seen this type of style of design ten years ago when I was playing my Game Boy. Is this punk culture?â
âWhat do you mean punk? I think punk culture is more fashionable than this!â
There was an uproar. Eudora took her phone out to check it out. It seemed good to her!
At this moment, someone exclaimed.
âWhy is it a trending topic?â
Raymond puffed a snort. âObviously, itâs trending because everyone is mocking it. Do you see it now, Mr. Chilton? The Holt Family is already weakened because of Mr. Holtâs passing, but it seems that our reputation is going to be affected further. This is really heartbreakingâ¦â
Samuelâs face sank. Out of the blue, someone shouted, âThey werenât mocking the website, itâsâ¦â
The man was so excited that he couldnât speak for a while. Raymond became even more pleased and he added, âMr. Chilton, looks like itâs worse than mockery! This is a major issue. Mr. Chilton, hurry up and control the situation!â
Raymond then took his phone out and clicked into the trending topics section. Then, he stuffed his phone into Samuelâs hands straight away without a glance.
âMr. Chilton, it is the best time for us to give suggestions right now. As long as we seize this opportunity, we will be able to go independent. In the future, we will all follow you, Mr. Chilton. Of course, if you are willing to give me a chance, I would be willing to share some of your burdensâ¦â
Samuel interrupted Raymond mid-sentence and stuffed his phone back into his hands.
âLook at it before you speak.â
Raymond answered disapprovingly, âMr. Chilton, weâre definitely being ridiculedâ¦â After a second, he was dumbstruck.
âHow is this possible?â
No one mocked them in the comments section at all. Instead, it was filled with praises.
âI didnât expect that the new owner of the Holt Family would be so cute. I find it adorable that those big burly men are telling the children that they should follow the law! This is the legendary gap moe, isnât it?â
âYou guys probably donât know that they have a milkshake shop too. Those macho men looked so cute during the shopâs opening ceremony. Is it a thing now for macho men to be so adorable? Iâm in love. Thatâs it. Iâm getting myself a cup of milkshake.â
âIâll go with you! I want to order the hunky dudes to serve me!â
Raymond gaped in shock, âMr. Chilton, thisâ¦â
âShut up!â Samuelâs stern voice cut off his sentence. He gazed deeply at Eudora immediately. She was also scrolling at her phone, but her expression was relatively calm. It was as though everything that had happened that day was according to her expectations.
He couldnât help but think of the Eudora that he saw a few days ago. She mentioned that she would produce great results for him to see. Was this the first step?
At this moment, Raymondâs phone rang. He picked it up absent-mindedly. It was from one of the hotel staff working under Samuel.
âRaymond, where is Mr. Chilton? Something happened in the hotel, a lot of people suddenly flooded inâ¦â
Raymondâs heart was filled with joy and his breath quickened in excitement. To prove himself right, he switched to loudspeaker mode before asking.
âSpeak. Are they there to cause trouble?â
The staff took a deep breath and replied, âNo, loads of people suddenly entered to make bookings to stay in the hotel. All of our rooms were filled within minutes, so I came to reportâ¦â
Raymond was confused.
