My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 142

When Kaylene pulled Wendy over, Amos had already sat down with Eudora George. Kaylene deliberately arranged Wendy to sit beside Eudora. "Miss Liam, you young people have more to talk about." Eudora frowned. If she knew that Wendy would be here today, she would definitely not come.

While she was still lost in her thoughts, he had grabbed her hand from under the table. Amos looked at her and asked, "What do you want to eat? I'll help you."

Deep down, Eudora was not happy, so she simply replied, "I want to eat the roast lamb."

Amos reached out and put a slice of roast lamb on her plate. "Here you go!"

Wendy was throbbing with jealousy at the side, but she did not forget the purpose of her coming here today. She calmed down and took the initiative to say hello to Eudora. "Hello, Miss George."

Eudora pulled the corner of her mouth slightly. She did not want to pay any attention to Wendy.

However, Wendy suddenly lowered her voice and said, "Miss George, don't worry. I didn't take to heart what you did to me yesterday, so you don't need to feel guilty about it." "Guilty?" Eudora was speechless.

"I don't feel guilty!" Eudora said in her heart. If there was another chance, she would have kicked her twice more.

Although their conversation was soft, Kaylene, who was sitting next to Wendy, had heard it. She could not help but say aloud, "Eudora, did you hit Miss Liam? How could that be possible? After all, Miss Liam is Amos' lifesaver. How could you hit her?"

Hearing this, the people at the table were stunned.

Amos glanced at Kaylene coldly. Wendy hurriedly stood up with a pale face. "It's all a misunderstanding. Miss George didn't hit me."

But with Kaylene trumpeting it so confidently just now, other people subconsciously thought that Wendy took the blame because she didn't want to make things awkward.

All of a sudden, they began whispering.

Wendy's heart was fluttering, and her brain dizzy. She had achieved her purpose, didn't she? She thought in her heart, "Eudora George, would the Grangers still like you after all these?"

Especially Old Master Granger, didn't he always dislike Eudora? Under such circumstances, he would immediately drive Eudora out, wouldn't he?

Just as she was thinking, Old Master Granger, who had been silent all this while, finally spoke up.

"What nonsense are you talking about?" the old man's aura was intimidating.

Wendy was even more elated. As long as Old Master Granger refused to give his blessings, it would be impossible for Eudora to marry Amos. Then, she would try her best to make the Old Master like her... Unexpectedly, the next second, Old Master Granger twisted his words. He addressed her sharply, "Miss Liam, didn't you just explain it yourself? Wasn't it all just a misunderstanding? I don't believe that Eudora would hit someone!"

Wendy was dumbfounded.

Did the Old Master just address Eudora by her first name? And he even looked so gentle? What was going on? Didn't he say that he didn't like her?"

Even Eudora herself was stunned. What was going on? All this while, she thought that Old Master Granger hated her very much.

Since he had spoken, the others dared not say anything. Wendy originally thought her trump card would defeat Eudora, but it completely backfired at her.

Wendy was furious and appalled. What on earth went wrong?

However, how could she give up so easily? Therefore, she quickly adjusted her mood, picked up the wine glass, and stood up. "Old Master, I've heard about your accomplishments for a long time and I admire you very much. Today, I'm so honored to meet you here. I wish you good health."

Old Master Granger didn't move. The caretaker next to him said hurriedly, "Old Master doesn't drink. Thank you for your blessing, Miss Liam."

Wendy was snubbed once more. She couldn't help cursing in her heart, "D*mn old thing."

Seeing this, Kaylene, who was next to Wendy, could roughly guess what Wendy was thinking. She immediately patted her on the back and said, "Miss Liam, I shall drink with you."

Wendy was eager to earn recognition now. She suddenly realized that she would be able to do so by having a good relationship with Kaylene. Hence she immediately became enthusiastic and chummy with her.

Just a meal was enough to make Eudora very tired.

After the banquet ended, Amos took her to say goodbye to the old man. Old Master Granger took a look at Eudora, paused shortly, then invited her to stay. "The rooms at home are all cleaned up. You two should stay for a day or two."

When the old man said this, Wendy was not far behind. She saw Amos nod and answer firmly. "Okay!"

As angry as a bull, Wendy controlled herself from throwing a massive fit there and then. She came here today not only to ruin their relationship but also to leave a good impression on the Granger family. But now it seemed that she had become the stepping stone instead.

Just as she was thinking about it, the Old Master spoke again, "Miss Liam."

Wendy felt a chill in her heart and quickly walked up to him. "Old Master."

"You saved Amos, and the Granger family should thank you. I heard that you have no relatives, right? You're all alone?"

Wendy nodded and said, "Thank you for your concern, Old Master. With Amos taking care of me all the time, I'm fine."

Although she said so, she felt a burst of ecstasy taking over her. If the Old Master was going to let her stay here, it would definitely help her cause.

Unexpectedly, the old man called the butler at the next second. "Where is the thing that I had asked you to prepare?"

With a respectful bow, the butler immediately handed a check to Wendy, "Miss Liam, this is compensation from the Granger family. Ten million dollars!"

The guests who had not left all gasped in surprise. The Granger family was really something. They would spend ten million dollars just like that!

The hall was filled with the envy of the guests and the calm voice of the old man. He then said, "Butler, have a car to send Miss Liam home."

Was she going to be sent home just like that after they shoved her with money?

It was obvious that the Old Master was trying to buy the debt of gratitude with money. That old fox!

Wendy gritted her teeth and her face turned pale instantly. "Old Master, I can't take this money. It wasn't because of the money that I had decided to save Amos. If you do not wish to see me here in the future, I shall not appear here in the future."

The old man's eyes darkened. This woman looked so pitiful that she looked like she was about to cry.

However, she was actually threatening him.

There were so many people around. By saying so, she was telling everyone that the Granger family had given her money so that they could cut ties with her and force their lifesaver to leave.

How dared she play such a trick in front of the Old Master?

However, he was not afraid of being threatened. Back then, he had brought up Valiant East all by him with his two bare hands. He was no stranger to threats, big or small.

Thinking of this, Old Master Granger smirked slightly.

"Please pardon my ignorance, Miss Liam. I was thinking that since the Granger family had only set up a design company for you, the compensation would not be sufficient. So I asked the butler to prepare a ter million dollar check. Now it seems that I've underestimated your generosity. I sincerely apologize. Butler, will you take Miss Liam back?"

In the end, she was still disposed and discarded like a used tissue,

The old man even knew that Amos had set up a design company for her and even announced it publicly, indicating that the Granger family no longer owed her anything.

As Wendy left the mansion, she could feel her eyes seeing red. She was so mad that she could spit blood!
