My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 103
The bidding officially began.
Amos Granger declared that Valiant East would collaborate with Everpeace to bid for the project.
The person in charge of the company was very excited. "I thought you're not competing for this project since Valiant East is not involved in this from the beginning. You can acquire this project even if you did not collaborate with Everpeace. Why are you working with them now?"
Amos looked at Eudora who was standing beside him and said, "I want to collaborate with this company because of Miss George. She's an excellent designer."
The person in charge of the company did not pay attention to Eudora before. After hearing what Amos said, he looked at Eudora.
He was stunned.
"Is Miss George participating in the design competition?" He asked.
Eudora nodded her head and responded, "Yes."
"Oh! I didn't know you're so talented! I really like your design. I didn't expect that you will bid for this project. It's a great honor to work with you."
Eudora was stunned by his words.
The person didn't even look at her before Amos arrived. In the end, Eudora acquired the project!
Eudora's colleagues were very excited when they came out of the hall. "President Gellert, I didn't expect that you would collaborate with Valiant East. To think that we were so worried about this!" Christopher pursed his lips and said, "In fact, it's not because of me."
"Who managed to ask Valiant East to collaborate with us then?" Everyone looked at each other in dismay.
Eudora frowned and glared at Christopher. Then, Christopher smiled and said, "It's because of everyone."
"That's true."
Everyone cheered and went out. They were discussing where to eat at night.
All of a sudden, Eudora's mobile phone rang. She looked at the screen.
Someone came over and asked, "Eudora, where do you want to go tonight?"
Eudora shook her head and said, "I have no idea."
"Let's go for karaoke together!" one of her colleagues exclaimed.
The call dropped after ringing a few times. Eudora kept the phone into her bag.
They saw Amos' car parked at the main entrance when they walked out of the building. They were about to work with Amos' company. Therefore, one of Eudora's colleagues asked, "President Granger, do you want to go for karaoke with us?" The person was just trying to be polite. Everyone thought Amos would definitely reject them.
Unexpectedly, Amos glanced at Eudora and said, "Okay!"
Everyone looked at each other in shock. The President of Valiant East, who was rumored to be a temperamental and unfriendly person, was going to join them tonight for karaoke.
It was unbelievable!
A few guys squeezed into Christopher's car. Eudora was left standing beside the car.
"Eudora, you can squeeze in with us."
Eudora did not think it was a big deal. However, Amos frowned before Eudora could say anything.
Then, he said, "Eudora, why don't you get into my car?"
Eudora didn't answer him. Amos asked again, "Do you not want to get into my car?"
"Nope!"
"Very good." After Amos finished speaking, both of them got into his car.
Eudora would be treated better in Valiant East anyway. She didn't have to sit in a car with so many other people. After all, Everpeace was just a small company.
After getting into the car, Amos said, "Are you still angry? I accidentally found out that Wendy..."
Eudora shook her head and said, "It's working hours now. I don't want to talk about personal matters." Amos frowned and said, "Okay."
Amos didn't know how to coax people. What he had done over the past few days had already exceeded his usual doings.
Therefore, he felt very annoyed at that moment.
When Amos and Eudora reached the place, the rest of the group was already there.
Amos sat in the corner. He was surrounded by his staff from Valiant East.
Eudora sat with her colleagues on the other side.
Her colleagues were very happy because they had acquired the project. Therefore, they asked Eudora to sing a song. Eudora loved singing before she was married to the Meyers. However, she lost herself in the marriage. She didn't sing for a long time ever since.
She refused, "I don't know how to sing."
"It doesn't matter. You can just simply sing a few sentences."
"Yeah, it's okay to not be good at singing. Those who are good at singing have already become singers!"
Someone even asked Christopher to sing, "I think Eudora is shy. President Gellert can sing well. Why don't you sing a duet with Eudora then?"
"Yes!"
"Let's sing 'How Deep Is Your Love'?"
"This song is suitable for Eudora and President Gellert." Eudora frowned and looked at Amos.
However, she could not see his facial expression clearly because the light was dim.
Someone pushed Christopher to stand beside Eudora while he was still hesitating. "President Gellert, why are you hesitating?"
"Yeah. We all know that you have a crush on Eudora..."
Eudora's heart skipped a beat. She wanted to clarify quickly.
However, Amos stood up.
Someone accidentally turned on the lights in the room.
Amos' glum and unhappy expression was exposed to everyone in the room. His cold aura seemed to have frozen the air in the room. The atmosphere was tense.
Amos' colleague, who was sitting next to him, asked, "President Granger... Do you need anything? I'll help you..."
"Get the hell out of my way!" Amos said coldly.
Eudora frowned and did not dare to say anything.
The next second, Amos slammed the door and left.
Everyone was shocked. They looked at each other and asked, "What's going on?"
"Who provoked him?"
"I have no idea. He got angry out of a sudden."
Christopher immediately spoke to Eudora, "Aren't you going to have a look? I'm afraid he might misunderstand."
Eudora smiled bitterly and said, "It's okay."
Amos' relationship with Wendy was far more complicated. Therefore, he had no right to be angry.
The staff from Valiant East left because of what happened earlier. Therefore, the staff from Everpeace were not in the mood to continue singing anymore. They left after a short while too. Eudora went back to her room.
Someone grabbed her arm and pushed her against the door as soon as she opened the door.
Eudora screamed in fright. However, the man kissed her before she could say anything.
She could not move at all because the man was holding her tightly.
He kissed her forcefully. It was as if he was trying to prove that she belonged to him.
Eudora couldn't break herself free. Therefore, she bit the man's tongue. The man was in pain. He paused for a moment. However, he still refused to let go of her.
Both of them could taste the blood in their mouths.
Eudora was helpless. Therefore, she bit her tongue instead.
Blood oozed out from her tongue. The man finally realized that something was wrong. Therefore, he let go of her.
Amos looked at the bloodstain at the corner of Eudora's lips. He asked, "Are you crazy? Do you really hate me kissing you? Or do you want Christopher to kiss you instead?" Eudora smiled bitterly and asked, "Did you do this to her too?"
Amos was stunned by that sudden comment.
He said, "Do we have to argue about something that has never happened? You promised me that you would give me half a year!"
"Yes, I did. But, I can't tolerate anymore!" Eudora said.
