The foreman still wanted to argue, but Eudora had already called the secretary.
âCall the police!â
âDonât call the police!â The foreman was finally scared. He could not help wiping his own sweat.
He was certain that Amos was indeed worthy of his fame. How could Amos have revealed all his secrets with just a few words?
âIâll say it. It was my fault! However, I really didnât mean to. I like to drink a little during the day. After getting tipsy that day, I took the wrong blueprints that the secretary had told me to discard before. However, the next day when I woke up, I found out that I couldnât change it back already! If I proposed to redo the foundation for such a big building, I really couldnât have afford it. Thatâs why I said so at the construction site. Miss George, please save me! I still have a wife and children waiting for me! If I go to jail, what will happen to them?â
Amos quirked the corners of his mouth and looked at him again.
âIf you really care about your wife and child so much, you wouldnât have forgotten to wear your wedding ring. Also, Iâm afraid that the wife and child of a drunkard will try to get away from him as quickly as possible. Now, I will give you two choices. One is to take responsibility for the project and settle the problem, and the other is to go to jail!â
The foreman was scared to death, âI donât want to go to jail. Iâm willing to take responsibility.â
Eudora looked at Amos blankly. Although she knew that her husband was very handsome, her eyes still could not help but sparkle in this kind of situation.
A man with courage and strategy was so hot!
Amos curled his lips and said, âSince youâre taking the responsibility, why donât you tell us where you got the blueprints?â
âSomeone gave them to me!â The foreman was already scared out of his wits. Now that he had let the cat out of the bag, he had no choice but to confess.
âWhat I said just now wasnât totally a lie. I usually like to drink. That day, when I was drunk, I had gambled with my friends. Eventually, I lost everything and owed the other person hundreds and thousands of dollars. I mortgaged the house, but I couldnât let my wife know. If she found out, sheâd definitely divorce me!â
âLater, a man came to me. He told me that as long as I completed this task, he would help me pay the debt and redeem the house. Not only that, but he would also give me another 200, 000 dollars. I really didnât mean to do it. I must have been possessed!â
Amos frowned and said, âOf course, you didnât do it on purpose. You were set up by someone!â
The man was startled. A moment later, he also came to a realization.
âYes, I usually donât like to gamble. Why would those people set me up? President Granger, you must help me!â
Amos turned his head to the side, âItâs true that youâve been tricked, but it was your own decision to do so. Why didnât anyone else fall into the trap? You can reflect on it yourself! As for how youâre going to take the responsibilityâ¦â
Amos looked at Eudora and said, âMiss George will give you the answer.â
After that, he got up and said, âI have something to do. I have to go back first!â
Eudora looked at Amos with a look of admiration. If it werenât for Amos, she might have been cheated by him. She had to change her soft-hearted attitude.
As she was thinking, Amos suddenly whispered to her, âDonât look at me like that.â
Eudora was perplexed. âWhatâs wrong?â
The next second, Amos had already come close to her ear.
âYouâre making me horny.â
Eudora was befuddled by that. What a lecher!
After Amos left, Eudora coughed lightly and looked at the foreman seriously.
âSince everything has been cleared up, and you donât want to go to jail, you can stay at the construction site!â
The foreman thought that Eudora had forgiven him, so he was so thrilled that he couldnât control himself.
âMiss George, I will work hard and do my best to repay you for your great kindness.â
Eudora pulled up the corners of her lips and said in a tone not unlike Amos while smiling, âYouâre welcome. Your monthly salary for moving bricks will be sent to you by the financial department for basic living expenses. The rest will be detained for what youâve done wrong.â
He was befuddled and asked, âMoving⦠bricks?â
âYes!â Eudora nodded and pretended to think, âWe, the Tyly Company, are not the kind of company that doesnât care about the lives of others. We wonât let you bear all the responsibility. Letâs see, youâll bear for 60% of our loss. After all, you did do it deliberately. If an ordinary employee made a mistake inadvertently, he would only need to bear 20%.â
60%?
The foreman silently calculated the amount of funds needed to rebuild the entire foundation of the building. Everything went dark before his eyes. He said, âMiss George, youâd better let me go to jail!â
There was at least a time limit for him staying in jail!
Eudora immediately nodded and said, âAlright! Youâve chosen this yourself!â
The foreman was dumbstruck.
The woman in front of him suddenly showed a sly smile, which terrified him.
Of course, she had not intended to let him bear the responsibility from the very beginning. She was just teasing him on purpose! The smile on her face, it was exactly the same as that of Amos!
Eudora didnât give him any more time to speak and called the security guards to come in.
âSend him to the police station!â
â¦
Outside of the door, Amos did not leave after he went out.
Instead, he stood at the end of the corridor with Clint, paying close attention to the situation inside.
When he saw the security guard go in and take the foreman out of the room, he raised his lips in satisfaction.
âLetâs go!â
Clint was confused. What was going on? Why did a smile of satisfaction suddenly appear on his bossâs face as if he was gratified that his child had finally grown up?
Wasnât it just a security guard bringing someone out from Miss Georgeâs office?
Clint scratched his head and turned to chase after him.
âMr. Grangerâ¦â
âHelp me call Harley and make an appointment with him.â
â¦
After a while, Harley hastily appeared in Amosâ office.
âDid that scoundrel do something bad again?â
Otherwise, Amos would not have called him at that time.
Amos did not speak. First, he asked someone to prepare a cup of tea for Harley, and then he asked, âHow is Cutie Pie?â
âHeâs much better now. The surgery was successful, and heâs now recuperating in the hospital.â
Amos nodded, and Harley could not wait any longer, âDid you call me here because of that matter? What the hell is going on?â
âJust as you thought, that person has made a move again, aiming at the Tyly Company. I donât know what heâll do next.â
Harley frowned and cursed, âSh*t! Is there really such an arrogant person in the world? Are there no laws in this universe anymore?!â
âHeâs hiding in the shadows while weâre being an easy target out in the open. If he doesnât show up himself, thereâs nothing we can do!â
After that, Amos leaned on his chair and gave him an enigmatic smile.
Harley was horrified by that, and he immediately asked, âYouâve thought of a good idea?â
âJust give them a taste of their own medicine!â Amos said.
âHavenât they always wanted to ruin Tyly Company? Havenât they always wanted Tyly Company to have an accident? Then, weâll follow their plans and see how it turns out.â
He would like to see how that person would react!
Harley staggered, âHowever, how will you tell Eudora about this?â
After all, she had put in a lot of effort to build the Tyly Company, and she must still be hoping that things would turn out good.
Amos pursed his lips and said, âI will handle this matter.â
