My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 1127

Rachel did not believe it, "Dad, aren't you thinking too poorly of him?"

"You still don't believe me?" Jarred was angry as he continued, "I've asked someone to investigate yesterday. When he went for a job interview, the first thing he asked for was an advance payment of five hundred thousand dollars! If it was just to support himself, why would he ask for that much? Isn't it all just to sustain all his bad habits from being filthy rich? I was wrong about him before!"

"However, this is also a good thing. Thanks to that matter with the Granger family, we were able to see who he clearly is. Eddison is no different from those other playboys. If he leaves his home, he will live a meagre life. Rachel, forget about him. I'll replace you a better man!"

"That's impossible!" Rachel stood up and said, "He's not that kind of person!"

"Rachel!" Jarred was angry, "This is my final decision no matter what you say!"

He turned around and took another look at Bianca.

"Discipline your daughter!"

Bianca nodded hurriedly. Then, she reached out to hold Rachel back and said, "That's enough!"

Rachel looked at Bianca's submissive look and did not feel good, therefore she kept quiet!

For the whole day, her mind was filled with Jarred's words. Eddison needed half a million dollars!

Of course, she did not believe that Eddison was the kind of person Jarred had mentioned. He must have a reason as to why he needed that much money!

She thought about it and could not help but give Yvonne a call.

"Can you do me a favor?"

Yvonne spent the night partying with her friends, so she was still in a daze. She mumbled, "What is it?"

"Is there any vacancy in your company? Do you need someone?"

Yvonne immediately replied, "No biggie! I don't know much about my dad's company but your friend can work immediately in my store. What does your friend do?"

"He studies law!"

Yvonne was stunned, asking, "You have friends in the law field?"

In the next second, she sobered up from the alcohol. She sat up and said, "Is it Eddison?"

"Yes!" Rachel nodded, "He seems to have encountered some difficulties, so can you help him?" Yvonne was exasperated as she scolded, "Are you stupid? It's obvious that he doesn't like you!" "What's wrong? I'm just treating him as an ordinary friend. Is there anything wrong with that?" "Okay, fine! How can I hire such a talent to my humble little store, though?"

"You're exaggerating. Any position is fine! I believe that he will be willing to do it anyway!"

"What about the salary?"

"You can pay the salary as per usual! However, he may want an advance payment. I have the amount ready. I'll transfer the money to you later! You can use my money to give him a payment in advance first. I promise you, you won't lose anything!"

Yvonne had an upset expression on her face, "Why are you doing this? Are you looking down on me? Do you think that I can't afford to pay him in advance?"

"No, it's not that! I just don't want you to spend too much money! You've just started out!"

"How much is he asking for? Even if I have just started my business, I can still pay him in advance!"

"Five hundred thousand dollars!"

Yvonne was rendered speechless.

"Forget it, you'd better transfer money to me!"

Rachel was instantly delighted to hear that and she said, "That's great!"

"You silly girl!" Yvonne was so angry that she gnashed her teeth. Then, she added, "I have never seen such a silly person like you. You even want to give him money! If you take out so much money at once, won't your father punish you?"

"It's from commissions for my projects. He won't know about it!"

"You're really silly!" Yvonne was dumbfounded as she continued, "You've been working hard at the construction site under the sun every day, yet you now want to give it all to that pretty boy!"

"Alright, that's enough! Don't speak of Eddison like this or I'll be angry!"

Rachel's voice was soft but she managed to make her words sound like a threat. Yvonne sighed helplessly and said, "Alright, I'll keep quiet!"

Eddison had spent the whole day before distributing leaflets and he received a day's salary of eighty dollars!

His pay was considered more than others. The rest had only gotten fifty dollars.

Several people looked at Eddison with envy, and expressed that they wanted to learn from him. However, to him, that amount of money was insignificant!

As Eddison walked out with that small amount of money, he wondered if he should change his job as soon as possible. His mobile phone rang again, and his roommate, Larry, was calling.

Tve already found people for you, but they want a deposit before they start working. Didn't you say you'll transfer the money? Where is it?"

Eddison tightened his grip on his phone and said, "I'll transfer it later today. I've run into some problems!"

Larry said with concern, "If there's a problem, then forget about it. We are all children from ordinary families. There is no need to spend that much! Besides, in my opinion, maybe Sierra has found another way?"

Larry's words were a little vague. Eddison thought that something had happened to Sierra, therefore he hurriedly asked.

Eddison thought that something had happened to Sierra, therefore he hurriedly asked, "What happened to Sierra?" "Nothing! What I mean is that Sierra has a lot of people around her, so perhaps other people will help her!"

Eddison frowned as he replied, "So? I promised her that I would help her! I can't go back on my word!"

Larry opened his mouth but did not say anything in the end.

"Then, I'll wait for you!"

After Eddison hung up on the call, he looked at the shop behind him and decided to think of another way. As soon as he arrived at the door, he heard a scream. "Help me!"

A woman, who stood by the car, shouted at a thief.

"He took my bag!"

The woman's driver was already chasing after the thief, but the thief was running so fast and he was about to escape. When the thief came towards Eddison's direction, Eddison gave him a kick, and took the bag from the thief.

"Take a look and see if there's anything missing!"

At that moment, the woman and the driver had caught up to him.

"Thank you! Thank you so much!"

As she said that, she took out her money and gave it to Eddison, saying, "This is a token of appreciation."

That woman was Yvonne. She acted according to Rachel's arrangement. However, such a way of thanking him with her own token of appreciation was added in at the spur of the moment.

When Rachel saw that, she was so angry that she kept waving her fist. Wasn't doing so an insult to Eddison?

Eddison shook his head and said, "No need. It's no trouble at all."

Yvonne raised her eyebrows. It seemed that Eddison's personality was quite decent. He was short of money, yet he could remain calm. He was indeed the son of the Granger family.

When she saw that he was about to leave, she finally remembered the plan that Rachel had arranged before, therefore she hurriedly caught up to him.

"Are you distributing leaflets? Our company is hiring. Would you like to give it a shot?"

Eddison stopped and turned back to look at Yvonne seriously.

She was a little anxious.

Then, Eddison still told Yvonne about his situation seriously, "I am still studying now, and it is very likely that I will go abroad soon! I'm willing to do anything if you hire me. However, I only have one request. Please give me half a million dollars in advance! I promise I will stay in your company after I finish my studies, until I finish paying off the amount!"

Anyone would replace that such a request was ridiculous, no matter how incredible a person he was.

The company he visited before had thought that he was crazy!

In fact, Eddison did not expect anything. After finishing his words, he was ready to leave, but the person behind him called out to him.

After finishing his words, he was ready to leave, but the person behind him called out to him, "Okay! I'll hire you!"
