My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 627

There was pin- drop silence in the entire conference room once Eudora finished her sentence. Everyone stared at her with great shock, as though they couldn't believe that she had said those words. It was a norm in the company that everyone would secretly do a background check on the upcoming talent whenever a new manager was slated to take over the role. This was to understand the new manager's temper and personality.

There were no exceptions this time either. Eudora's relationship with the barista was good. Hence, everyone believed that she was an easy-going person after some simple digging.

They even concluded that nothing severe would happen if they were to go against her.

This was also why the head of the network department had taken the initiative to replace Eudora's idea even though her instructions were clear to him.

Eudora initially didn't want to make other people's lives difficult because she had just taken over the company as the new head. If it had been the day before, she would have only insisted the network department change the website, and that would all.

However, this day was different. She was irritated.

This feeling lingered ever since Amos pushed her into the car.

At the same time, she found the scenario to be contradictory. Her mind was filled with the reporters' questions directed at her. They asked her whether she and Amos had discussed it beforehand to assassinate Tyler together.

Otherwise, why did she seem unaffected or sad about his death? Tyler was her father after all.

Eudora smiled bitterly. She told herself silently that Amos was likely to be Tyler's murderer, thus she couldn't be soft-hearted just because Amos had saved her just now.

However, her heart flipped into a mess when she recalled Amos' final two words that he had mouthed to her.

The person- in- charge of the network department stood up hurriedly upon Eudora's question. "Miss George, I..."

"I'll give you an hour. If you aren't able to change it according to my requirements, then you may leave!"

After that, she got up and left the conference room.

Everyone behind noticed her terrifying expression and kept quiet out of fear.

After returning to her office, Eudora looked at the computer absent-mindedly and kept refreshing the webpage. Quinn came in several times and noticed that she was refreshing the webpage repeatedly as though she was looking for something.

Quinn could not help asking, "Miss George, what are you looking for? I'll help you with it!"

"No, I just want to test the company's Internet speed!"

All of a sudden, her phone rang, and Eudora released her grip on the mouse to pick up the call. Tina's tearful voice could be heard from the other end, "Eudora, why didn't you tell me about Dad's death?" Eudora was taken aback for a moment and she replied bitterly immediately. "Would you be able to come back even if I told you about it?"

Tina and Christopher had left Greene City a while back and went abroad. One of the reasons was that something had happened in the Gellert Family and that Master Gellert was reaching his time. Hence, the Gellert Family was facing a shift in the family structure.

At the same time, it was rumored that Master Gellert was disgruntled at the fact that Tina hadn't gotten pregnant even after getting married to Christopher for a long time. Hence, Christopher had to bring her abroad to protect Tina.

It was urgent at that time, thus Eudora wasn't able to contact her and inform her.

"I'll head back tomorrow!"

Eudora shook her head. "Forget it. I've already settled everything for Dad. Don't worry while you are overseas! Everything is good at home now, and I'll get a lawyer to take care of the shares left to you by Dad..."

"Eudora! Why are you saying all these? I want to go back and accompany you..."

"There's no need for that. I'll be at ease as long as you are fine!"

Eudora heard Christopher calling for Tina before she hung up the phone. "Why didn't you wear your shoes again? It's cold outside..."

Those familiar words triggered her memories of her close relationship with Amos in the past. She recalled the scene of him warming her two feet with his large palms.

Eudora frowned and stared at the table in silence.

Meanwhile, Amos, who had been rescued from the crowd by Clint, was sitting tiredly on the sofa with his eyes closed.

Next to him was Harley, who was watching the latest live broadcast from his phone.

The live broadcast was filmed in a mess, particularly the scene where Eudora and Amos were trapped by the reporters. Everything that Amos had said just now was all broadcasted too. On the screen, a reporter was reporting his final conclusion.

"What you saw was President Granger's first direct answer to the rumor..."

Harley threw his phone away and said, "You are so naive."

Clint, who was next to him, glanced at Harley suspiciously. "Mr. Louis, is there something wrong?"

Harley snorted. "Of course. It's not just that something is wrong, but everything about it is wrong. Do you think what Amos said was directed to the media?"

Clint was puzzled. "Wasn't it?"

Harley rolled his eyes. "Clint, we've known each other for so long already, haven't we? Why haven't you learned from my intelligence at all? You are becoming dumber!"

Clint was confused and wondered why he had gotten rebuffed all of a sudden.

Harley continued, "Don't you understand? Those words were directed to Eudora. The first sentence was to tell Eudora that she was the mother to his child no matter what. The second sentence is to tell her tha he didn't do anything and that he is innocent."

Clint was speechless. "Is that so? If that's the case, isn't President Granger really bold?"

Harley gnashed his teeth in anger and replied, "Amos, what's your plan? Didn't we agree not to alert the enemy? It's just a small matter, must you hint it?"

Amos frowned. "You guys are so noisy. You'd better not get into a fight with Thea next time! Just you wait and see."

Harley instantly shut up after listening to his warming.

"Well, let's talk about our next step..."

Clint was baffled. It seemed that Mr. Louis could change his attitude with just a snap of his fingers.

Harley cleared his throat and said, "There is no doubt about this matter. Although we couldn't prove that it was Fabian's doings, we all know it clearly. Moreover, I think that the purpose of Fabian's plan is to ultimately target Eudora or the Holt Family."

Amos opened his eyes and stood up to face Harley.

"Don't even think about it."

Clint was once again perplexed at the whole situation. Both of their guessing skills were getting better!

"What's wrong?"

Harley frowned when nobody answered him. "Since you'd guessed it, then there's nothing I should be worried of. Yes, you are thinking exactly what I'm thinking. Instead of being sitting ducks, they might as wel take the initiative to attack. Although I'm rather disappointed with Eudora, I believe that she might change her mind if Thea takes action. Fabian lusts for her. As long as she gives in to the cooperation and follows our plans, then we could work in collusion..."

Clint took a deep breath and watched as Amos's expression darkened.
