Chapter 860: Chapter 860 We’ve Done Our Best

Eudora silently swore in her mind. She couldn’t possibly leave at such a critical time.

However, the project Clint mentioned was significant as well. The employees of the company had worked together for several months to win the deal.

If everything got ruined because of a signature, she would not be able to bring herself to explain it to the employees who had worked hard for it.

Eudora grabbed a nurse by her side.

She asked, “How long will it take to remove the bandages?”

The nurse looked at the time and said, “It’ll take more than an hour! It won’t be that fast.”

Eudora nodded and calculated the time in her mind.

If she acted quickly, she could make it back in time!

She quickly told Clint, “Get everything ready. I’ll head over there now!”

After that, Eudora took another look at the door of the ward and turned to leave.

Along the way, Eudora was urging the driver, “Hurry! Can you drive a little faster?”

The driver was dumbfounded, “Mrs. Granger, I’m going as fast as I can! If we were to go any faster, we would get in trouble! Also, we are already going at an incredibly high speed!”

Eudora let out an exasperated sigh. Fortunately, they arrived at the company within twenty minutes.

As soon as she entered the door, Eudora shouted at Clint.

“Where’s the contract? Bring it over!”

Clint had an apologetic look on his face, “Sorry, Mrs. Granger. The contract was ready, but before you arrived, I checked again and found some mistakes. The secretary is making the changes as we speak. Please wait for another 15 minutes!”

Eudora looked at the time and felt unhappy.

However, Clint seldom made mistakes in his work. It was his first mistake, so she could not say anything else. All she could do was to hold it in.

About 15 minutes later, the secretary finally handed her the contract.

Eudora looked at it and signed it quickly after making sure there were not any problems with it.

“Alright, you can handle the company’s matters first. I still have something urgent to deal with. I’ll get going right away!”

As soon as she arrived at the door, Archer came in from outside.

“Miss George, Miss Malone is here!”

Elaine?

Although Eudora was a little annoyed, Elaine was still her business partner. She held herself back and said, “Let her in!”

Last night, Eudora had overheard the conversation between Elaine and Amos. Naturally, she was aware about Elaine’s thoughts towards Amos.

Truth be told, she should have realized it a long time ago.

After all, when Amos had still been living as Sawyer, he had been Elaine’s neighbor for quite some time. Elaine had also mentioned Sawyer repeatedly in front of Eudora.

Eudora trusted Amos and understood that it had all been part of Elaine’s wishful thinking.

After the two met, they chatted for a while.

Then, Elaine said, “Judging from your face, the two of you didn’t quarrel! I really envy how much the two of you trust each other!”

Eudora smiled faintly, “Thank you. He’s a trustworthy man. However, I wonder why you’re here…”

“Oh, don’t misunderstand me! I’m not here to provoke you! Although I’m not the kind of person who’s willing to admit defeat, I’m not a person who likes to pester others either. Since I’ve already been rejected, I won’t pull any stunts behind your back. The purpose of my visit is due to the charity project we’ve worked on before. Albert sent me a letter, so I came here to show it to you!”

Eudora remembered Katie and her mother.

Although she had ordered someone to keep in touch with them, she had been so busy lately that she did not have the time to find out more about them!

With that thought in mind, she took the envelope and opened it.

The letter inside started with Albert’s gratitude towards Eudora and Elaine. He then gave updates about Katie, her mother and also Ralph, whose domestic violence ended him up in prison. There was also a stack of photos in the envelope. The first photo showed Katie and her mother smiling brightly.

Their home had also been renovated. It looked new and clean.

There were also photos of the new school. The locals had finished building the school and the students had started studying there since.

Eudora looked through the photos and was moved. Initially, she had carried out the project to improve the company’s reputation.

However, upon seeing such a response, she inexplicably felt a sense of comfort.

She enjoyed doing such meaningful things.

“Do you want it?” Eudora gestured at the photo in her hand. “If you don’t want it, I’ll keep it as a souvenir!”

“I have a duplicate of them, so you can have them!” Elaine expressed her thoughts.

Naturally, Eudora accepted them and put the photos into the drawer.

She said, “I have something else to do today. If that’s all, I’ll leave first, alright? If there’s anything else regarding the project, I’ll ask the manager to discuss it with you…”

“There’s no need for that!” Elaine said, with a grin on her face. “Your focus seemed to have shifted a long time ago. I won’t bother you any further!”

Eudora smiled awkwardly and went out with Elaine.

Before leaving, Elaine teased her again.

She said, “If I remember correctly, today should be the day of Amos’ bandage removal! No wonder you’re in such a hurry. Although I’m a little jealous, I still wish you all the best!”

“Thank you!” Eudora spoke sincerely.

Elaine changed the topic.

She reminded Eudora, “If the two of you break up one day, I won’t miss that window of opportunity!”

Eudora paused for a moment before replying, “I won’t thank you for that. There won’t be such a day!”

After getting into the car, Eudora looked at the watch on her wrist. It had been over 50 minutes!

In about ten minutes, Amos would be done with his bandage removal!

She ordered the driver, “Let’s head back quickly.”

The driver did his best, but they were still too late.

By the time she returned to the hospital, it had been an hour and ten minutes since she left! Eudora quickly ran towards the ward, but there was no one in the corridor.

When she looked into the ward, she failed to see Amos anywhere.

Eudora’s heart skipped a beat. She quickly asked the nurse who was cleaning up the ward.

“Excuse me, where’s the patient?”

“Oh, are you talking about the man who came to remove his bandages? He left already!”

“He already left? Then… How is he…”

The nurse sighed, “Is he your family? You’ll know once you get home!”

Eudora took a deep breath. Could it be that the operation had not worked out?

After coming out, Eudora thought about it and went to find Doctor Oscar.

“About Amos…”

Doctor Oscar sighed as well, “We’ve done our best! You…”

Eudora no longer dared to listen anymore. She got up and went out.

As she walked, she called Charlie, “Charlie, where’s Amos?”

Charlie replied softly, “Mrs. Granger, where did you go just now? President Granger doesn’t look too good now. However, don’t worry, I’m following him. He’ll be fine!”

Eudora hurriedly asked, “Where are you guys?”
