My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 625
Amos was dumbfounded, so Harley shouted at him again. 'Are you listening?"
"Tell me, what happened?"
"It's about the Nolan family. They have found new evidence proving that Charlie was the one who shot Tyler dead. Not just that, they even suspected that Charlie was acting per your instructions! I've also heard that the department has already sealed the evidence. I planned to keep this matter hush at first, but I knew that Charlie didn't have the intention to kill anyone. That's why I'm telling you about this." Amos took a deep breath and replied, "I see."
"Amos, what are your thoughts on this? We have to think of a plan now. The Nolan family is about to rise again. If we continue like this, we'll just be sitting ducks!"
Amos frowned. Finally, he blurted out, "Alright, I get it!"
Harley was getting impatient. "I hope that you do. Otherwise, you're in grave danger this time."
After a slight pause, he continued, "Why don't you go to Eudora? Make it clear to her and request her to withdraw her complaint. As long as she does so, perhaps there is still room for a comeback on this matter."
Harley spoke again when he noticed that Amos had remained quiet.
"You couldn't bring yourself to do that, could you? I'll go, okay? I'll talk to her for you..."
"Harley!" Amos stopped him immediately, "I'll take care of it."
"Forget it!" Harley felt helpless. "You win. You seem to lose your senses whenever it comes to that woman. Forget it. I don't want to meddle in your business anymore. My wife has asked me to go home for dinner, so I'm leaving now!"
Amos got up and walked to the window after Harley left. He looked at Eudora's bedroom and wondered if she knew about the evidence that the Nolan family had found and if she believed it.
Meanwhile, Eudora had also gotten wind of the news. After returning from Samuel's place, her head was filled with various marketing plans for the milkshake shop.
The inspiration had actually come from Amos. He had received considerable attention from the ladies when he was hanging out with children because of reverse psychology.
He was a person who rarely smiled, hence, when he smiled warmly all of a sudden, the average person would replace it adorable at first glance.
A magical scene popped into Eudora's imagination the moment she thought of this.
A group of purportedly fierce gangsters suddenly smiling and advising people to take care of the public property and be thrifty... it would be an adorable scene, wouldn't it? As soon as this reverse psychology methodology succeeds, their reputation would rise as well.
Eudora finally made up her mind after weighing the possibilities. She immediately held a meeting with the relevant departments and requested them to create a webpage.
The top of the webpage showed an authoritative statement to the youth.
-"Study hard and improve every day."
The IT specialists from the department were going crazy. "Miss Eudora, are you serious? The Holt family has been known for their notorious background and the type of people it has since a long time ago. The entire Greene City knows it. If we do this now, we will look like idiots."
Eudora was persistent as she replied, "Just do it."
She was the boss now, and the department manager didn't dare to refute it. However, the manager disagreed.
She heaved a sigh after seeing Eudora leaving.
"It looks like the Holt family is really losing its game!"
The moment Eudora went outside, she saw Leslie running towards her breathlessly.
"Miss Eudora, I've finally found you."
"Uncle Clarke!" Eudora laughed. "What's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry? Come to my office and have a drink..."
"No, thank you. This has to do about Mr. Holt's case. We've finally found a lead!"
Eudora's heart skipped a beat. She blurted out, "What happened?"
"I was right. Charlie was instructed by Amos to kill Mr. Holt..."
Eudora's mind went blank, and she exclaimed, "That's impossible!"
How could it be possible? She couldn't believe it...
Leslie said earnestly, "Miss Eudora, I know that you still harbor some feelings for President Granger, but your judgment mustn't be clouded when you're facing such a big issue. You are the head of the Holt family now, and everyone in the Holt family is watching your every move all the time."
"But, Amos has no reason..."
"He does!" Leslie sighed. "We found evidence that Amos did it for his project. He wanted to gain a firm foothold in Greene City. Harley Louis is Amos's friend. Consider why he had suddenly taken over the investigation of the Nolan family. The Nolan family and the Holt family are the only rivals for the development of Valiant East in Greene City. They'd already defeated the Nolan family, and the next one would be the Holt family. Miss Eudora, please open your eyes to the truth!"
Eudora's heart was in turmoil. Although she was no longer together with Amos, Tyler and Amos were people she held dearly in her heart.
They were her only family in this world.
Yet, at this moment, she was told that one of her loved ones had killed the other. How could this be possible?
"Uncle Clarke, I'm sorry. I need some time to calm down, alone!"
Leslie frowned. "Miss..."
Eudora no longer paid any attention to Leslie and shut herself in the office.
She stared blankly at the ceiling after throwing herself on the sofa. Her mind was empty.
All of a sudden, her world had been upended and she did not even know what the truth was anymore. It was as if at that moment, many things that she had once believed in firmly had changed.
It was completely different from what she had imagined.
She didn't know how long she had stayed in that position until she heard a knock outside. Eudora was startled and she glanced at the window. The sky was already dark.
Eudora took her phone hurriedly, thinking that Juju might be worried about her. However, her phone had already died. No wonder there weren't any incoming calls.
She packed her things in a rush and left. Fabian was standing outside her office the moment she opened the door.
"Eudora, are you a right? Uncle Clarke told me that you locked yourself up here for the whole day. I was so worried! I'm glad that you are alright."
Eudora subconsciously took a step back. "I'm fine."
Fabian retracted his hands awkwardly. "That's good then. I know why you're sad. I'll ask someone to handle this matter, so don't you worry about it! I hope that, when this matter is finally settled, you will be able to see me as the most suitable person for you."
Eudora didn't say anything else and went straight out.
When she reached home, she saw that Juju was indeed anxious. Although she had maintained a stubborn demeanor, her reddened eyes were obvious.
Eudora held Juju in her arms dearly. The first thing that came into her mind was that both Juju and Sugar Bun would be the most pitiful people in the world if Amos was indeed the person who had plotted against Tyler.
