âIâm sorry, Mrs. Grangerâ¦â Clint apologized in a hurry.
Eudora shook her head. âNo worries. Indeed, he was the one who said it!â
Throughout her entire life, Amos was the only person who had taught her so many things.
Feeling a little sad, Eudora waved her hand and said, âIâll go back by myself. You donât have to follow me! By the way, you said you wanted to go on a vacation with Anya last time. Howâs that going?â
Clint felt a little embarrassed, âItâs going well. She has already accepted my proposal. Weâre planning to get married and go on a honeymoon trip in a few months.â
âThatâs great! Everything will be fine as long as the two of you are together.â
After that, Eudora got up and walked forwards.
After taking a few steps, she couldnât help but hold her chest.
Amos! Everyone else had a partner now. How wonderful it would be if he was still here!
Clint caught up with her again.
âMadam, you had asked me to make an appointment with the person-in-charge of the charity platform. She has just called back and said that sheâs available this afternoon.â
Hearing this, Eudora composed herself as she wanted to meet the savior who had helped Valiant East It was already almost noon. Eudora asked, âWhere are we meeting?â
â¦
When Eudora arrived at the restaurant, she walked towards the reserved table. The person-in-charge had already arrived.
Upon seeing Eudora, she stood up and reached her hand out to Eudora.
âMy name is Elaine Malone. Itâs a pleasure to meet you, Miss George.â
Eudora and Elaine were two completely different people. Although Eudora was strong, because of her appearance, she was always treated as a weakling.
However, Elaine was different. Just by looking at her face, one could tell that she was capable and mature.
In particular, the professional suit that she was wearing highlighted her personal charms.
Elaine saw Eudora staring at her.
She explained, âIâve just come out of the office, so I didnât have time to change.â
âThatâs alright!â Eudora pursed her lips.
After ordering the food, Eudora opened her mouth and said, âThank you for your help before.â
Elaine smiled and said, âMiss George, youâre being too courteous. We were only doing our job. Sebastian wanted to take advantage of our platform. We couldnât just sit by and watch. After all, we have to take into account the interests of our users.â
Business was business. The rules should be clearly defined and respected.
Eudora nodded in appreciation, âThank you very much. Itâs a pleasure to get to know you.â
âIâm also very happy to be able to meet you. To be honest, itâs not purely business. Iâve already heard a lot of stories about you before this, like the stock war to save President Granger, and how you reclaimed Valiant East. Iâm very impressed! I really wouldnât know what I would do if I were to encounter such a thing.â
Eudora smiled faintly. Truthfully, if she had a choice, she would not want to encounter such a thing.
As long as she was with Amos, she would rather stay by his side quietly.
While they were talking, Elaine looked out of the window and said happily, She said happily, âDo you mind if I bring a friend in here?â
Eudora froze for a moment, âOf course, I donât mind.â
Upon hearing this, Elaine got up and trotted out. Indeed, she was actually trotting.
Eudora was surprised to see a woman like her be so anxious. Eudora was a little confused. When her gaze followed Elaine, she saw her grab a personâs arm outside.
At the same time, a lovable look appeared on Elaineâs face.
That personâ¦
Eudora raised her eyebrows in bewilderment. It turned out to be the tightly covered person she had met on the mountains last time.
Just as she was thinking about it, Elaine had already brought that person in.
âMiss George, Iâm really sorry. I saw an acquaintance, so I invited him over! This is my friend, Sawyer Yarbrough.â
Eudora extended her hand politely, âNice to meet you.â
Sawyer seemed a little surprised to see Eudora and did not move for a long time.
Elaine was surprised, âWhatâs wrong, Sawyer? This is Miss George, the capable woman that Iâve told you about before!â
It was only then did Sawyer come back to his senses, âHello.â
âHello. Thank you for your help last time,â Eudora said.
âHave you two met before?â Elaineâs interest was immediately piqued.
âYes. I had encountered some trouble on the mountain last time. He happened to pass by and he gave me a hand.â
âReally?â Elaine grew even more surprised, âYou might not know, but Sawyer rarely goes out. He prefers staying home alone. When he meets other people, he doesnât like to talk to them either. Iâm surprised that he actually helped someone!â
Eudora was also a little surprised, âIf so, then Iâm truly honored!â
Hearing this, Sawyer gave a reply.
His voice was hoarse as he said, âI just happened to recognize her when I passed by.â
Elaine immediately smiled shyly, âSawyer, I didnât expect that you actually remembered my words.â
Sawyer cleared his throat and said no more.
After the food was served, Elaine was the only person speaking. From time to time, she would pick some food for him.
âItâs bitter gourd, your favorite!â
When Eudora heard this, she raised her head to look at that man.
âDo you like bitter gourd too?â
Sawyer was stunned for a moment and nodded, âItâs healthy.â
âOh!â A faint sense of disappointment rose in her heart. Amos liked bittergourd too, but not because it was healthy, but because she liked to ask him to eat them.
After that, Eudora felt like the food was tasteless. Soon, they finished the meal.
Sawyer still had the same indifferent look on his face. Seeing that it was about time, he said he had something to do and left first.
After he was gone, Elaine asked, âAre you intimidated by him? Honestly , heâs a nice person. Youâll notice that after knowing him for a longer time!â
Eudora shook her head, âNo, thatâs not the case.â
Elaine immediately let out a sigh of relief. âItâs good that you werenât. I thought you were shocked, which was why you didnât talk much.â
âWhen Iâm eating, I donât really talk much.â Eudora said faintly, âYou and your boyfriend talking is enough!â
Elaineâs cheeks immediately flushed red, âWhat did you say? My boyfriend?â
âIsnât that the case?â Eudora was slightly embarrassed. When she saw the way Elaine was looking at him, she thought that they really were a couple!
âYou could say that!â Elaine said with a smile. âLetâs hope that your words are a blessing for that to happen!â
After chatting for a while, Elaine said again, âOh, I have a meeting in the afternoon. Thatâs all for the time being. Letâs exchange our contacts and stay in touch.â
Eudora nodded. After exchanging phone numbers, she watched as Elaine left.
After she walked away, she got up, walked to another seat, and sat down.
She had come here with Amos before. This was the seat that they had sat in the last time they were here. At that time, she had said that the food here was delicious. Amos had even promised to bring her here again in the future.
It wasnât even that long ago, but everything had changed now.
Thinking of that, Eudora wore a smile. Even if Amos was gone, she had to be strong. Only then would he be able to rest in peace.
At the same time, from the floor length window not far away, a man clad in black clothes stood there quietly.
He was looking at the smiling woman, standing there like a statue and not moving for a long time.
