Chapter 651: Chapter 651 Staying Strong

The next day, Eudora forced herself to forget about her conversation with Clint the night before.

In the next few days, Eudora either worked in the office or followed Fabian to pick out things for their wedding.

Today, Eudora sat in the Nolan family’s hotel lobby in low spirits as she gazed at Fabian, who was smiling cheerfully at her.

“Eudora! Look at the specifications of this menu. Do you have any opinions?”

Eudora glanced at it. “I’ve no opinion, I’m fine with anything!”

Fabian’s fingers paused slightly. Behind him, his assistant pursed his mouth, a little displeased.

The next second, Fabian took the menu back and scanned it. “Let’s change this dish! Let’s change it to the stewed meat that Eudora likes. The rest are fine!”

The waiter nodded and left with the menu.

Just then, Eudora received a call and stepped away.

After Eudora left, Fabian’s assistant said grumpily, “Are you not angry with Miss George’s arrogance?”

Fabian frowned. “Who allowed you to speak ill of the future young madam?”

Malcom had coached Fabian’s assistant since he was young, so he had a good relationship with Fabian. Naturally, he was more unrestricted with his words compared to others.

“I did not speak ill of Miss George. It was your judgment that is clouded. That’s why you don’t see it. You’ve brought Miss George along to prepare for the wedding, but she never looked interested at all. Many in the company are saying that Miss George is marrying you to get the Nolan family’s help!”

Fabian chuckled, “It’s as if I didn’t marry her for the sake of her help.”

The assistant paused. “But at least you really do have feelings for Miss George…”

“Oh?” Fabian was surprised. “Is it that obvious?”

The assistant fell speechless.

“Isn’t it obvious enough? The only thing left to do is carving the words ‘Fabian likes Eudora’ on your forehead!” the assistant thought to himself.

Fabian seemed to be in a good mood. “Since you have noticed it, then Eudora would too in the future! Don’t be so pessimistic!”

What else could the assistant say?

Someone pushed through the door. Then Callum could be heard bellowing gruffly, “Sir, you’re so hard to find! It was fortunate that I managed to come out earlier, otherwise I really couldn’t attend your wedding!”

There was a brief moment of discomfort in Fabian’s eyes, but he quickly smiled.

“It’s good that you’re out. You didn’t suffer much, did you?”

“It was a piece of cake!” Callum dismissed him with a wave of a hand. “I am satisfied knowing that you care for me!”

Callum turned and patted the hand of a person who was standing behind him. “Vivian, greet Sir.”

Vivian who had been following Callum and called out flatly, “Sir.” However, Fabian ignored her. After all, it was common for his subordinates to have a lady by their sides.

Especially Callum’s girl. Fabian had heard a lot about her. Callum liked her a lot and had spent quite some efforts to win her heart.

“Where is the new madam?” Callum smiled and asked. “I haven’t formally thanked her yet!”

Fabian lowered his gaze and replied with a smile, “Don’t worry. There will be plenty of opportunities for you to meet her in the future, but it’s not convenient now!”

Callum mumbled, “Didn’t her father die because of Charlie? That had nothing to do with me, I…”

Before Callum could finish his sentence, he realized Fabian was staring at him fiercely. Although he was a rough man, he knew how to observe others’ words and expressions.

In their line of work, they needed to understand how to observe others’ body language and behavior. Otherwise, they might put their lives in danger!

Callum shut up immediately. “You’re right, so that’s it! I’ll head back first…”

Fabian nodded happily and said, “Go back and have a good rest. Don’t worry about the case. With me here, you will be fine!”

“Of course, I’m sure of it!”

After that, Callum headed for the door. Moments after, he noticed that Vivian did not follow after him. He called her impatiently, “What are you looking at? Come over here immediately.”

Vivian pinched her stomach and whispered, “I… I want to go to the bathroom.”

“Women are so troublesome! Hurry up!”

After that, Callum turned around and said, “I’ll wait for you outside!”

…

In the washroom, Eudora didn’t hurry to go out after washing her face. She saw an ant at the side of the sink suddenly.

Without its companion, the ant seemed a little lost. It had been desperately trying its best to find an exit!

Eudora stared at it for a long time and thought, “It will give up after hitting the wall several times, right?

However, who would have expected that the ant didn’t give up at all. Even after hitting the wall countless times, it continued to soldier on.

Footsteps came from behind, followed by a familiar female voice.

“Sometimes, this little ant is really stronger than human beings!”

Eudora glanced up and saw the person standing behind her in the mirror.

“Vivian, is that you? What a coincidence!” Eudora beamed. The week when Eudora was at the cafe, Vivian would visit daily and would sometimes chat with Eudora as well.

Eudora considered her as a friend.

Unexpectedly, Vivian turned her head away coldly and said, “It’s not a coincidence, Miss George. You’re getting married. Everyone in the whole Greene City knows about it, and of course, that includes me.”

“So? Are you looking for me?” Eudora looked at her doubtfully. “What are you here for?”

Vivian smiled bitterly. “I was indeed looking for you because of something, but now… it’s nothing.”

After that, she grabbed the ant and crushed it in her palm.

“Since there will be no future from the very beginning, then there is no need to give the future any hope! It’s better to end it straight away. Ants are the same as humans, don’t you agree?”

Eudora felt that there was something strange about Vivian’s words. She wanted to probe further, but Vivian was no longer paying attention to her. She turned around and left.

Eudora subconsciously chased after her. However, as soon as she walked outside, she saw that Fabian’s assistant was already waiting for her.

“The dishes have been served. Sir requested Miss to taste the food!”

Eudora nodded and looked in the direction where Vivian had left. She only caught a glimpse of Vivian and a man’s back.

The man was none other than Callum, the one who was sent to the police station along with Charlie. Was he bailed too?

Moreover, how could he be with Vivian?

Eudora looked at them thoughtfully. When the assistant urged her again, she turned back and followed him back to the dining area.

As soon as she sat down, Fabian picked up a piece of stewed meat and placed it on Eudora’s plate. “I requested to add this dish. I heard that this dish tastes good. I don’t know if it’s as good as how you cooked it, though.”

Eudora took a bite simply and said, “Not bad.”

“That’s good!” Fabian smiled and took another spoonful into Eudora’s plate.

Eudora picked up the glass of water and took a sip before asking, “Isn’t it a coincidence? I don’t think there’s many Callum look-alikes, but why did it seem like I just saw him?”

Fabian paused. “Oh?”
