Fabian didn't bring Eudora anywhere. He just sent her to the milkshake shop. On the way there, Eudora spoke to him about some of her own thoughts.

"You are being disrespectful. I've already told you two days ago that I haven't agreed to the engagement yet. You shouldn't have announced it to the public without my consent."

Winson, the driver, was in a cold sweat as he listened. He still remembered how Eudora had punched Fabian the other day. Now, she was being so rude to him. Was she looking fortrouble? However, Fabian looked apologetic and he said, "I see, I'll correct it next time."

Eudora looked at him suspiciously. "You..."

No matter how she looked at it, Fabian didn't seem to be an obedient person to her. However, Fabian merely smiled at her and said, "Is there anything else?"

Eudora looked at his expression and became more and more hesitant.

"Do you really agree with me?"

"Why not? I'll just do whatever you say!"

"What if we cancel the engagement then?" Eudora probed.

"Sure! People already know that you are my future wife anyway, so it doesn't matter if we get engaged or not. If you wish to cancel the engagement, I would just regard it as you being considerate about my busy schedule. Thank you for your thoughtfulness, my future wife."

Eudora was speechless.

Surely enough, she shouldn't have let her guard down against a psychopath.

"Must you have to do this? You know that I don't like you."

"I know! But I also said that you will like me eventually! It's settled then, I'll treat you to lunch at noon," After that, Fabian got out of the car and went over to open the door for Eudora.

Eudora did not get out of the door that he had opened. Instead, she moved to the other side and got off the car.

Fabian was still calm. After watching her get out of the car, he got back into the car and left.

Eudora took a deep breath and walked into the milkshake shop.

After the car had gone far, Winson asked, "Mr. Nolan, where are we going next?"

Fabian lowered his head and tidied up his cufflinks before saying, "I heard that Valiant East has begun its development plans in Greene City. Have they been bidding for the international development project recently?"

How would he know? However, Fabian didn't wait for his answer. He simply ordered, "Send me to the bidding site."

Amos was indeed there. Since Valiant East was going to expand in Greene City, they had to make a mark right from the start in order to compete with the Nolan Group and the Holt Family.

Therefore, this project was very important for Valiant East. Even though he just gotten discharged from the hospital, Anos still came on his own.

Clint was in the midst of explaining the details carefully to Amos with the bidding materials in his hand, but his eyes were distracted by Amos' lips.

After that, he took out a tissue and whispered to Amos,

"Mr. Granger, would you like to wipe off your lipstick?"

Amos remained silent.

He was still furious when he recalled how afraid Eudora was of being discovered just now, even when he had already signed the divorce papers in front of her.

However, he still couldn't get rid of his anger, and he was itching to vent it out on other people!

He took the napkin and wiped his lips with it, cleaning away the marks she left on his lips. The clear pain on his lips caused his eyes to gradually darken.

A man's deep voice could be heard from behind him. "President Granger, you're wiping your mouth a little so hard, aren't you? It seems as though you've eaten something forbidden."

Amos didn't even have to raise his head to know that the man was Fabian.

The Nolan family was also bidding on the project on that day. Fabian wasn't supposed to come, but he did.

Amos looked up calmly and glanced at him.

Fabian still looked indifferent, "You should not touch something which doesn't belong to you. Be careful!"

Amos smirked and said, "Thank you for your kind reminder."

Fabian's eyes sank slightly. He knew in his heart that Amos knew that he had seen him. Was he declaring war with him?

Great! Valiant East.

He did not believe that the foundation of the Nolan family, which had been built in Greene City for so many years, would be threatened by a company that had appeared all of a sudden. Fabian smiled and continued, "Mr. Granger, you seem very confident. Let's wait and see how it ends."

After that, he turned around and walked towards his own seat.

There was a tiny commotion on the side of the Nolan Group, but soon, they were settled in their seats.

Clint glanced at Amos and remembered the news in the morning. He couldn't help but gossip, "President Granger, is he really engaged to Mrs. Grang... Oh, no, to Miss George?" Amos shot a glance at Clint. "You saw that too?"

Clint went silent.

"I was just asking. Why the hostility?" he thought.

However, he was still very curious. "But, you didn't sign the divorce papers, didn't you?"

When he visited Amos in the hospital in the middle of the night, he saw him sitting alone on the hospital bed, staring at the divorce papers without blinking.

Amos snorted, "I've signed it!"

Clint's jaw dropped and his mouth hung wide.

"Why are we still in Greene City then?" Greene City had never been part of their company's initial development plan. The development plans of other cities had almost been completed, and they were all better than this place.

Why here? He had always thought that it was all because of Eudora.

What were they doing here then, now that the both of them had signed the divorce papers?

"Signing the papers doesn't mean that we're divorced!"

Clint didn't understand! However, Amos didn't intend to explain.

The bidding soon began. This time, not only the Holt family participated but also the Nolan family. The Holt family and the Nolan family had always been at odds. Because of the grudges between Tyler Holt and Malcom Nolan, the two old men had fought for half of their lives.

They all thought that the final result would be decided by these two families. However, they didn't expect that Valiant East would appear out of nowhere. Moreover, Valiant East seemed well prepared, offering a high price as soon as the bid started.

The Nolan Group did not expect such an outcome at all. Originally, there was only one competitor. Why did another one pop out of nowhere all of a sudden?

The representatives from the Nolan Group all looked at Fabian. "President, this..."

"Don't worry about the Holt family. Fight to the end with Valiant East!" Fabian answered.

Was Amos planning to compete with him in terms of strength? He would regret that. The strength of the Nolan family in Greene City was not something that could be easily compared to.

The representatives heard him and began a new round of bidding. Fabian then called Tyler to give him a rough idea of the situation. He told the Holt family not to get involved for the time being and to observe the battle first.

After a short while, there were only the people from the Holt family and Nolan family left. During the third round of bidding, Fabian offered a price that had already exceeded the budget.

The representatives advised him hurriedly, "Mr. Nolan, that's too risky! If Valiant East tricks us and withdraws from the bidding round, we'll lose a lot of money in this project."
