She responded only after a while, âNo. But she just left not long ago, in that directionâ¦â
Amos Granger rushed out of the building before the receptionist could finish speaking.
It was only then when Clint Zuckerberg finally realized the food and drinks were brought by Eudora George! He said to the receptionist in a hurry, âWhy didnât you ask her to stay? You couldâve asked her to wait in President Grangerâs office!â
The receptionist widened her eyes in puzzlement, âAssistant Zuckerberg, who is that person? Why are you so nervous? President Granger tooâ¦â
Clint said with a dark face, âHow dare you ask such a stupid question!â
The receptionist was so shocked that her jaw dropped, Clint immediately snapped, âYouâd better keep your mouth shut!â
âYes!â The receptionist nodded her head.
However, the receptionist was very excited as she thought to herself, âOh my God! That woman is my bossâ future fiancee!â
â¦â¦
Eudora George saw Amosâ car returning when she was about to leave.
She saw Amos walk into the lobby with his staff, looking as handsome as usual! Eudora stared at him for a while before she came back to her senses.
She couldnât help but laugh at herself mockingly. All of a sudden, she saw Amos coming out of the office building again when she was about to start the car engine.
He looked around in the parking lot, and his gaze landed on her car.
Was she caught?
Eudora wanted to leave immediately. However, Amos rushed over to block her car.
âCunning little vixen, where are you heading to?âAmos asked.
Eudora was embarrassed. âI passed by and saw a milkshake shop. So, I wanted to buy some food and drinks for you.â
âWhy didnât you go into my office then?â Amos asked.
âI⦠suddenly remembered that I have some things to do in my company!â Eudora said.
âLiar!â Amos saw through her. He came over and opened the car door. âLetâs go!â
âWhere are we going?â Eudora looked at him in surprise.
âDidnât you say that you wanted to visit me? Iâm free now. Letâs go!â Amos said.
âForget it.â Eudora shook her head and replied. What would others think of her if she were to enter Amosâ office?
âNo way!â Amos grabbed her hand and pulled her out of the car. âYou brought so much food and drinks for me. How am I supposed to finish them alone?â
âWell, you could give some to Clint!â
âHe doesnât like it!â Amos didnât hesitate.
Clint was drooling and looking at the food at that moment. Upon hearing what Amos said, he was dumbfounded, âWhat?â
âThen just throw them away!â Eudora exclaimed.
âI donât want to waste any food!â Amos retorted.
â⦠Since when did you become so thrifty?â Eudora asked.
âI was like this ever since I got to know you. Otherwise, how would I have the money to marry you?â
ââ¦â Eudora was quite happy when he said that. Actually, she was extremely overjoyed.
Amos was not afraid to bring Eudora to his company at all. Did that mean that Eudora was the most important person to him?
In the end, Eudora lost the argument and followed Amos into his company. She pulled her hand away from Amos when they were about to reach the lobby. âI can walk by myself!â She said.
Amos knew she was shy when he saw her flushed face. Therefore, he did not make things difficult for her.
Eudora followed behind his back, entering the lobby again.
Everyone was guessing what happened when they saw Amos rushing out of the building just now. Therefore, all of them had their eyes on him when they saw him coming back to the company.
They saw Eudora, who was following behind him as well.
Eudora was gorgeous, and she wasnât just any ordinary beauty. Although she had only wore a simple dress today because she just came back from the construction site, that however didnât stop her beauty from shining.
Everyone began to talk about Eudora, âIs this President Grangerâs girlfriend?â
âProbably? President Granger finally got into a relationship!â
The receptionist also looked at Eudora in excitement.
Eudora was embarrassed from all the stares. In the end, Amos even turned around to hold her hand. âAll of you are right. She is my girlfriend, and she would come here again in the future. So, please remember her clearly. All of you must treat her well!â Amos announced.
Upon hearing this, Eudora was bewildered and in shock.
She lowered her voice and protested, âAmos, why are you saying this!â
âIâm telling the truth, arenât I?â Amos said.
Everyone cheered for them.
Eudora was even more embarrassed now, Amos held her hand and the two went into his office together.
Clint put down the food and drinks in the office and went out. Eudora examined Amosâ office as she walked in.
The design was very simple and minimal. Eudora took out the snacks she brought and put it on the table.
After eating, Eudora looked at the time and got up. âI should go back to the company now. Thank you for having me today.â
Her voice was filled with mischief. Amos raised his eyebrows and said, âWell, itâs your turn to take me in tonight!â
Eudora was speechless. Her cheeks were flushed red in an instant.
âWhat nonsense are you talking about?â
Amosâ lips curled up slightly. âI didnât say anything. I said that I will be home early tonight. What were you thinking?â
Eudora was speechless. She couldnât argue with him.
âI donât want to talk to you anymore. Iâm leaving!â Eudora said.
At that moment, Clint came in to report the work progress. Therefore, Eudora left alone.
A girl walked out from the elevator in a rush when the elevator doors were opened, bumping straight into Eudora.
The girl was holding a pot of chicken soup and accidentally spilled it on Eudoraâs arm. The soup was still burning hot.
Eudora hissed in pain. The receptionist rushed out to hold her. âMiss! Are you okay?â
âIâm fine!â Eudora said. However, she could feel a burning sensation on her arm. âWhere is the restroom? I want to run my arm under cold running water.â
It would be much better to run her scalded arm under cold running water.
Clint, who had just come out of the office, witnessed what happened.
Eudora was wearing a sleeveless dress, and the burnt red marks were obvious.
âMiss George, were you scalded? Come, follow me into the presidentâs office. Iâll get you treated.â
âIâm fineâ¦â Eudora said.
âNo way!â Clint quickly helped Eudora up and left. However, the girl holding the chicken soup was shocked.
âWho is that woman? Why did Assistant Zuckerberg treat her so well?â
âOh dear!â The receptionist was annoyed. âSunnie, I wouldnât have asked you to open that pot if I knew this would happen. Sheâs President Grangerâs girlfriend. Weâre in trouble now!â
âWhat?â Sunnie said, âHow is that possible? Isnât President Grangerâs girlfriend Miss Wendy Liam?â
âWho is Wendy Liam?â The receptionist asked.
âDonât you remember? President Granger asked all of us from the design department to have a gathering with a woman two days ago, and that woman is Miss Wendy Liam! She even asked someone to send this chicken soup to me. She even said that we should get together again some time.â The girl replied.
âBut, President Granger just told everyone that the woman is his girlfriend! You can ask around if you donât believe me!â The receptionist said.
Upon hearing this, Sunnie was completely dumbfounded.
âWhat should I do? I just got an internship in the design department. I donât want to be fired so soon!â The girl said. âItâs all that Wendyâs fault. Why would she send this to me? Now she got me into trouble!â She thought.
