My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 613

After Harley contacted Amos, he didn't hear from Amos again, and there were no other updates either. He happened to see the news from the media that had shocked the whole city, so he rushed to the Holt Manor immediately.

As soon as he reached the entrance, he saw a group of people confronting each other.

Harley dashed over and showed the patrol officers his identification cards before asking, "What's going on?"

"Officer Louis!" One of the patrol officers exclaimed, "Some people are fighting here. We were just about to bring them back for interrogation."

The officer pointed at Eudora.

"No!" Amos quickly said, "I am the one who was involved, and I'm saying that nothing happened."

"Really?" The officer asked suspiciously. They had all heard Eudora's words just now.

Amos nodded firmly, "No, really, it's nothing. This is my ex-wife, and we were quarreling over the custody of our children. She's being too impulsive. I'm really sorry for causing trouble to everyone." "Officer Louis, what do you..." The officer glanced at Harley awkwardly.

Harley glanced at Eudora and saw the fierce-looking man behind her.

Obviously, Eudora was confident that Amos would protect her. Hence, she was planning to shield the man behind her at all costs.

Harley was already infuriated with what Eudora had done to Amos. Hence, his anger flared even greater now.

"Amos..." He frowned.

"I'm the person involved!" Amos repeated what he said, displeasure written all over his face.

Harley clenched his fists.

"Since the person involved said that it is fine, then we should be rest assured. You can leave now since I'm here." The police officers listened to Harley and left quickly. Eudora waited for everyone to leave before she called Leslie.

"Come with me!"

Leslie was regretful for causing trouble to Eudora just now. He quickly apologized, "I'm sorry, Miss." "Forget it!" Eudora pinched her temples tiredly. Then, she gave Amos a deep look before telling him.

"You can go now! I have nothing to say to you for the time being!"

Amos mumbled, "I'll investigate it thoroughly..."

When Eudora and Leslie left, Amos looked at Harley and asked, "Where is Charlie? Take me to him."

Harley snickered, "You still remember Charlie?

I thought you were blinded by love."

Amos frowned and asked, "Are you trying to be funny?"

Harley snorted, "Beautiful women tend to bring trouble!"

In the afternoon, Tyler's coffin was buried amidst cries and howls.

Everyone from Greene City lined up from the cemetery to the outskirts of the city. Eudora felt greater sorrow when she saw the line of people.

No matter how solemn the funeral was, it could not bring a person back to life.

It was a great calamity, not only Tyler himself but also to the Holt family.

Another two people who were as sad as Eudora were Tyler's close underlings. They had been with him ever since the beginning and had proven their worth to stay with him up until today. One was Leslie Clarke, and the other was Samuel Chilton.

However, Leslie gained more trust from Tyler. Relatively speaking, Samuel didn't get as much attention as Leslie. In the past year, Samuel had been working in silence most of the time and hardly showed himself.

At this moment, Samuel wasn't able to hide the sadness on his face as he stood in front of Tyler's tombstone.

"I can't believe Mr. Holt left just like that. What are we going to do in the future? The group can't go without a leader. We have to come up with a plan first."

Samuel's subordinates all nodded in agreement.

"Boss is right. After all, the Holt family isn't small and there are many things we have to deal with. Our suggestion is that Mr. Clarke and Mr. Chilton should take care of their own affairs respectively." Hearing this, Leslie's face looked grim.

"What are you all trying to do? Right after Mr.

Holt left, you guys are talking about how to split up the Holt family?"

"Mr. Clarke, what are you saying? You're overthinking here. When Mr. Holt was still around, we were already split into two factions. It was just that Mr. Holt was in charge of everything, and we were all reporting to him alone. Now that Mr. Holt is gone, shouldn't we be the same as before? As for who's going to be the one in control, that's something we don't know and can't control!"

Although they were saying how they didn't know how things would turn out, many underlings were already gossiping about it.

"I don't think we should let a woman take charge of everything."

Eudora remained silent when she heard this. She wasn't really very ambitious, so she didn't want to take charge of the Holt family's affairs either.

Her greatest wish was for her and her husband to take care of their children together and raise them well.

Leslie didn't think so. He had previously respected Eudora only because she was Tyler's daughter. However, his perspective of her had changed after getting along with her after a period of time. Furthermore, Eudora had defended him at the Holt family's entrance this morning. Ever since then, he had a new impression of her.

Miss George was definitely not as weak and insignificant as she looked.

She was Tyler's daughter, and the similar sense of tenacity ran in their blood. To him, Eudora had this ability as well.

"Why not? Miss George is Mr. Holt's only daughter. What's wrong with that?"

The person behind Samuel snorted and replied, "For an outside, a woman, to make matters worse, to lead us? Are you insulting us?"

Leslie added with gritted teeth, "It's not my decision alone, it was also what Mr. Holt wanted."

Hearing this, Eudora was stunned and frowned doubtfully at Leslie. Apparently, Leslie already had it all planned out as he called the lawyer behind him to come forward.

"Mr. Holt was already thinking about retirement earlier on and has decided to pass the family inheritance on to his grandchild. Hence, he has already chosen the next heir of the Holt Family. This is his will!"

The lawyer came forward to read out the will. According to his will, the whole Holt family's assets would be divided into three parts. Ten percent of it was given to Tina.

The other ten percent was given to Eudora.

Everyone exchanged glances of confusion, "What about the remaining eighty percent?"

"The remaining eighty percent will be given to the Little Master after he reaches adulthood. However, he has not reached that age yet, so his shares shall be handed over to Eudora to be taken care of. Moreover, before he reaches adulthood, all the Holt family's matters will be under Eudora's management."

Tyler had unexpectedly thought through everything and planned to give everything to Sugar Bun.

At the very least, he was aware that Eudora was not ambitious at all.

After the lawyer finished reading the will, he showed the will to Samuel and Leslie. Although Samuel was somewhat displeased, he still had to obey Tyler's last wishes.

In the blink of an eye, Eudora had become the next head of the Holt family.

Leslie brought everyone over to greet Eudora, but she had yet managed to get over the shock of suddenly becoming the head of the Holt family. In a daze, she dropped the flowers in her hand onto the ground.

The people behind Samuel became even more scornful and they scoffed, "You can't even hold a simple bouquet of flowers, so how are you going to be our leader? What qualities do you have that make you a leader?"

Leslie tried to break the tension and explained, "Miss Granger is still in mourning and has yet to get any proper rest. Are you guys trying to push her to her limits? That's all for today. After paying your respects to Mr. Holt, all of you should hurry back. Gather at the Holt manor's courtyard tomorrow morning for Miss Granger to formally introduce herself to everyone."
