My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 758
What should we do?
Eudora's lips curled up, "I don't care what he wants to do. As long as he hurts my husband, I won't let him go!"
Charlie was taken aback!
He suddenly felt that Madam was so cool!
"Then, what should we do next?"
Eudora pursed her lips and said, "Ask Clint to come in!"
Clint had learned about Mark from Charlie. As soon as he came in, his face was full of anger.
"I really did not expect that Mark would be so bold. Back then, Thomas had been defeated by us. Yet, he still dares to come and look for his death?"
Eudora's brow creased, "He had already succeeded more than half of his plan already!"
Wasn't that right? Back then, Thomas had not been able to bring Amos away. He had only used himself as a threat to Amos. However, now, Mark had actually managed to bring Amos away without anyone noticing!
Clint lowered his head and answered, "It was us who didn't protect Amos well."
"I told you to come in not because I want you to repent! Since things have already happened, we have to pick ourselves up. Based on my intuition, Mark should be brewing some plan!" "What?" Clint asked anxiously.
Eudora shook her head, "I still don't know yet. It's just that based on my previous understanding of Mark, I feel that he isn't such a simple and straightforward person." Otherwise, he wouldn't be so hesitant.
At first, he had taken advantage of the rift between Leslie and them and made them think that he was merely helping Leslie and hid his real purpose.
After that, he took drastic actions when they thought that Leslie had been subdued.
That move was truly much more powerful than what Thomas had done.
As she was thinking, her phone rang.
Eudora picked it up and looked at it. It was a strange number. She accepted the call hesitantly, "Hello..."
There was no response from the other end, so Eudora spoke again.
"Who are you looking for?"
A soft laugh came from the other side of the phone. It was a very distant sound, but it was bone-chilling.
"Mark Shelby?"
Eudora's voice sank.
Charlie and Clint, who were beside her, immediately held their breath and glared at the phone as if they were going to glare at Mark to force him to jump out of the phone.
"Mrs. Granger, you're very smart! My people have told me that someone in Valiant East is investigating me. I guess that Mrs. Granger has found out about the clues. You've done so earlier than I thought, indicating that the relationship between Mrs. Granger and President Granger really is firm and stable!"
Eudora frowned, "Don't talk nonsense to me. Where's Amos? Where is he?"
"Don't worry!" Mark laughed, "If this game ends so soon, then it won't be fun anymore! Don't you want to enjoy the process? Do you dare to play this game with me?"
"What do you mean? What do you want to do, until you're willing to let Amos go!"
The other party laughed again, "Since you've asked, I'll say it directly. I'm not like my brother, who likes being simple and straightforward. My brother was caught by you two, right? As for me, I like playing games! Look at today's game! I'll make a bet with you. Within three days, I'll make the stocks of the Valiant East plummet! Of course, if you win, I'll bring Amos back!"
Eudora took a deep breath, "I don't trust you! This is just a verbal discussion. What if you take back your words?"
"Forget it! If you don't want to bet, my original plan will carry out as normal!"
"You...are despicable!" Eudora gritted her teeth.
"You can say whatever you want. There's only one way for you right now, and that is to gamble with me!"
Eudora also knew in her heart that since Amos was in his hands, she was completely in a submissive situation! If she agreed to bet, she might be able to pacify Mark for the time being.
If that was the case, Amos might not be in that much of a danger.
After thinking about it for a while, she finally agreed.
"I'll make the bet with you, but I hope you can keep your promise and let go of Amos by then!"
Mark laughed heartily, "Let's talk about that after you win!"
After hanging up on the phone, Clint and Charlie immediately surrounded her, "Madam, how is it? How is President Granger?"
Eudora shook her head, "Clint, go and contact Gabriel, the stock market expert, right now. No matter what his price is, we have to employ him."
Clint only heard that Eudora wanted to gamble, but he did not know what she was going to gamble on. Now that he was asked to look for Gabriel, he suddenly became nervous. "Madam, do you want to bet with Mark using stocks?"
"I don't have any other choice!" Eudora said coldly. "Anyhow, you have to help me replace Gabriel."
Turning around, she looked at Charlie again.
"Go and investigate the number that called just now!"
It was rare for Eudora to maintain her rationality at this time and still remember to investigate the number. Charlie was finally a little relieved as that indicated that Eudora still had a plan in her mind. He nodded immediately. "Okay!"
A moment later, Charlie first came back.
"The number is registered under Giant Star! It's a legitimate number. I've contacted the relevant personnel of Giant Star. It's said that the number had been registered for employees! We still can't replace anything more for now."
Eudora had underestimated Mark's attention to detail. He had actually come up with this.
"I see. Let's not worry about this for now."
Clint came back and said, "Madam, I'm sorry!"
"You haven't gotten in touch with Gabriel?" Eudora asked anxiously.
"It's not that! I've contacted him in the name of Valiant East. However, his assistant said that Gabriel has already been invited! He doesn't accept any other collaborations for the time being."
"Then, did you tell him that we accept any conditions?"
"Yes!" Clint sighed, "However, they've said that they had already signed a contract with other people. No matter how much they want to help, they can't."
Clint paused for a moment and said, "In fact, I had suspected what kind of person could intervene in our stock under President Granger's nose. Now, it seems that the reason Mark is confident is probably because Gabriel is working for him!"
Clint's words made sense, and Charlie's expression immediately became serious.
"Mark is tricking us! He's already well-prepared, but he wants us to fall into his trap. He knows that we can't win..."
"Who says we can't win?" Eudora closed her eyes, "No matter how smart a person is, there will always be times when they are careless. Although Gabriel is powerful, we aren't weak either. For Amos' sake, I will definitely win against him!"
Clint nodded, "Yes!"
Charlie was somewhat rational about their situation, "Do you know anything about the stock market?"
Clint nodded, "I've bought some before! It then got converted to become tens of thousands of dollars!"
Charlie said, "Your opponent now is Gabriel though!"
As they were talking, Archer pushed the door open from outside and came in.
"Assistant Zuckerberg, Miss George, I have the latest news. Our company's stock has suddenly been bought in large quantities!
Several directors are waiting for you outside. They suspect that someone is trying to destroy our market with malicious intentions now!"
Upon hearing what Archer just said, the three of them looked at each other quickly.
They were still in a dilemma. In reality, the enemy did not intend to give them any time to do so.
The war had already begun!
