My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 562

Winson did not understand his words. "Mr. Holt, what do you mean?"

"It's nothing. Get back to work!" Tyler then opened the thermos.

The strong aroma came out in an instant, and Tyler felt a burst of jealousy explode within him.

"Looks like that silly girl is still not willing to part with that b*stard."

The ingredients used to make the soup were all exquisite and of high quality. As Eudora's father, Tyler hadn't even had the chance to taste her cooking. This only served to convince him that the b*stard must not be with her.

The situation as of now was the best possible outcome. However, Tyler knew that he needed to seize the opportunity. He must hurry and come up with a new plan while the couple was still embroiled in their misunderstanding.

Tyler took a sip of the soup happily. "It's delicious."

Winson and Hodge gulped at the same time.

At first, Tyler was wondering how he should comfort Eudora. He believed that she would definitely dwell on this matter for days.

In the end, Eudora did not respond even though Tyler had knocked on her door the next morning.

He was considering getting someone over to kick the door open again. Fortunately, Hodge informed him just in time that Eudora had gone out to work.

Tyler suddenly chuckled and said, "She really is my daughter. She could let go of matters so easily. That's great!"

Hodge smiled wryly. Mr. Holt was indulging himself, wasn't he? Miss Eudora obviously still looked unhappy.

Tyler was immersed in his own happy mood. He then made a phone call to Fabian's father.

"Malcom, are you free today? Let me treat you to a cup of milkshake..."

Fabian's father, Malcom Nolan, had been friends with Tyler for many years. Back then, the two of them came from the same background. The only difference was that Tyler eventually left the underworld, while Malcom had stayed.

It was because Malcom had been with Tyler throughout all these years that Tyler was able to live a stable and comfortable life even after leaving the underworld.

The Nolan family had actually begun to approach formal businesses over the years. However, some habits were hard to change.

However, this didn't affect the relationship between Malcom and Tyler. After all, the two of them had gone through countless hurdles together.

Therefore, when the retired Malcom received a phone call from Tyler, he answered with a smile.

"Milkshake? You old geezer, how could you drink such a sweet drink at such an old age?"

"What do you mean? You're the one who's old. Don't you know that this is the trend amongst the youngsters these days? I know that you're refusing because you're old. Forget it then. I am a young man, so I will enjoy it myself!"

Malcom was unhappy and he retorted, "Bullshot! Everyone knows that I'm one year younger than you are. Where shall we meet? Send me the address, I'll come over immediately."

Tyler smirked at once. He knew that this old friend of his could never handle being goaded. Otherwise, he would just continue to pester him.

He wasted no time and sent Malcom the address. After that, Tyler leaned on the couch leisurely and closed his eyes to rest.

When Hodge heard that Tyler was going out, he immediately went to arrange for a car. When he came back, he realized that Tyler was still lying there. Hodge got a little curious. "Mr. Holt, didn't you say that you were going out?"

"What's the rush?" Tyler answered simply and smiled. Going out for a coffee was just an excuse. He had more important things to do.

Meanwhile, the business in the milkshake shop had gradually stabilized ever since Harley brought those cops over,

The shop assistants were all focused on their work when Eudora arrived. Eudora then thought that it would be better to change all the other shops into milkshake stores in the future.

To be honest, she was not doing this solely to appease Tyler. She had thought about changing the Holdt Family's business to give it a brighter future.

Even if it weren't for Tyler, she should still do it for the sake of her deceased mother.

Her mother would be upset if she were to learn that Tyler had never changed, wouldn't she?

At this moment, a loud commotion could be heard from the hall.

Eudora looked over with suspicion, and she saw an old man arguing with a young man. The older was so angry that his face had turned red.

The staff explained to her, "It seems that the young man had cut the queue."

Eudora frowned and uttered, "Didn't we tell them that no one is allowed to cut queues in the shop?"

"But..." The staff looked awkward as he continued, "The thing is, many hooligans around this area have come to cause trouble after Raymond and the others left. They used to be our rivals before this. They deliberately came here to make things difficult for us because they know that we are doing legal business. We don't dare provoke them because we will only be causing more trouble for you if something were to go wrong."

Eudora's frown deepened. "I'll go and have a look."

There was a skinny young man in his twenties outside. His expression looked mean too, and he acted as though he was the boss around here. The sight was unpleasing to the eye.

Standing beside him, an old man in his fifties was glaring at him in fury.

"Young man, why are you being so unreasonable?"

"Get lost, old man!" The hooligan, Jack, pushed the old man away rudely as he roared.

The old man was caught off guard and he almost fell to the ground. Luckily, Eudora reached there in time and held him up.

"Are you alright?"

The old man shook his head in response. Jack hadn't met Eudora before. When he saw her coming out using the shop's back door, he assumed that she was an employee. Hence, he immediately teased her. "I did not expect to meet such a beautiful woman here! Come, have some fun with me!"

Eudora's brows furrowed, and Jack laughed obscenely again. He jeered, "What's wrong? Isn't this shop running a business? The milkshakes are for sale, so your smile should be for sale too. Give me a smile, and I'll pay you a price worth two cups of milkshakes!"

He then took out a stack of bills and swung it in front of Eudora's face.

"What are you waiting for?"

The old man next to her could not stand it anymore and spoke up, "Miss, don't worry about this. I'll teach them a lesson!"

Eudora shook her head with a smile. "It's okay."

She turned to look at Jack and said with a faint expression, "You want a smile, right? Come closer, then."

The old man looked at Eudora disapprovingly and warned, "Miss, don't be silly..."

Eudora didn't reply to him. She simply waited as Jack finally walked over.

He said as he approached her, "How surprising. Girl, I didn't expect you to be smart. If you do well, I will give you all my money..."

"Come a little closer," Eudora urged.

"Then, don't mind me... Ouch!"

Just as Jack walked up to Eudora, she suddenly kicked him in the knee with a smile. Jack was caught off guard and he knelt on the ground with a loud thud.

Eudora gave him a firm smile and asked, "How does that feel? Are you satisfied with my smile?"

Jack instantly became angry from

embarrassment. He hissed as he struggled to get up, "B*tch, you're messing with the wrong person!"

He was about to grab Eudora's hair from behind when she turned around swiftly and dodged his attack.

Just then, the old man stood in front of Eudora. Eudora's heart trembled as she feared he would get hurt, and she wanted to save him. However, the old man grabbed Jack's wrist skillfully.

A bone-cracking sound echoed in the air, and Jack let out a shrill scream like a pig being slaughtered!
