My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 762
Clint was in a daze for a moment, and then regained his composure.
"Madam, who are you talking about?"
Eudora did not answer. Instead, she stood up.
She said to Wesley, "Take me back to the Granger Mansion."
"Yes, Madam!" Wesley replied.
Eudora remembered that since the development of Valiant East, it helped many other companies every year. When Old Master Granger was still around, Eudora once saw a record book.
It had a lot of things recorded inside, which included the beneficiaries of Valiant East. One of them was a well-known rich man in the city.
Of course, there were also many other people.
With the beneficiaries in mind, Eudora felt that they might not immediately refuse to help.
Luckily, the butler still took good care of the Granger Mansion. Eudora immediately found the record book as soon as she got home. According to the phone numbers in the book, Eudora arranged to meet with a few rich people on that day.
In the cafe, Eudora sat there, looking at the door from time to time.
It was almost time for her to meet someone, but she did not spot anyone.
Wesley said with uncertainty, "Madam, businessmen value profit much more than others. Are they still coming at this time?"
Eudora shook her head. She didn't know either.
Just as she was thinking about that, someone pushed the door open. The man was not alone, and he brought many people along as well.
"I'm sorry. I'm late as I was getting in touch with everyone. We'll always remember Old Master Granger's help to us in the past. So, something has happened in the Granger family this time, how could we not help?"
Eudora was moved, "Thank you. Thank you, everyone."
"You're welcome. What help do you need, Mrs. Granger?"
Eudora glanced at Wesley, who was next to her, and immediately voiced all her thoughts.
After listening, everyone looked at each other. The leader of them asked, "Is that all?"
Eudora nodded, "Yes! I just want to make a bet along with you all! I know that this idea is too idealistic. If it fails, you may also lose everything like us. Therefore, if you don't agree to this, I'll understand!" The man nodded and said, "Mrs. Granger, we appreciate your understanding. How about this? We'll go back and think about it. We'll give you an answer before nightfall!"
"Okay!" Eudora stood up and watched them leave.
Wesley was a little discouraged, "Madam, they won't reject us, will they?"
After all, it was a trap no matter how he looked at it!
Although it was a gamble, their net worth would still rise to an unreachable height if they won. However, the chances of winning were actually very minimal.
If they lost, they would have to go back to the drawing board, and it would be very difficult for them to turn the tables by then!
How could Eudora not know about that? She could only comfort herself that she would do her best and listen to what the heavens said!
After sitting in the coffee shop for a while, Eudora looked at her watch.
"Let's go. It's almost time. Let's go to the venue!"
Tonight was the last battle. She knew that Mark might go back on his words even if she succeeded. However, she would not allow herself to fail.
She could not allow more excuses for Amos to be tortured.
They were at the venue.
The media had been paying attention to this event from the very beginning. Especially in the past few days, the stock market had been in a very turbulent situation. Therefore, the media were already surrounding the place tightly.
Seeing Eudora coming, the media immediately rushed forward to interview her.
"Miss George, I hear that you are taking over the Valiant East Group now and have said that you will try your best to protect the Valiant East Group. However, we have seen the stock market these two days. We wonder what is it that you intend to do?"
Eudora smiled, trying hard to make herself look confident.
"Hasn't the stock market been very good in the past two days? The stock price of Valiant East has risen to its highest in history!"
Her words immediately stopped the media from talking. No matter if she was really stupid or just playing dumb, her move was effective.
After pushing through the crowd and entering the venue, Eudora looked at the sea of red in front of her.
They were indeed at their highest. However, the higher one was at, the more damage one would face when one fell down!
Eudora knew that Mark wanted them to fall from the highest point.
Thinking of that, Eudora looked at her surroundings. Mark and the others had already come in from outside. Mark still looked as gentle and refined as usual.
At that moment, he was wearing a pair of golden-rimmed glasses, which made him look even more like a wolf in sheep's skin.
When he saw Eudora, he took the initiative to come forward and greet her with a smile, "Miss George, respect to you!"
Eudora replied faintly, "Same to you! I only hope that you'll keep your word and will not do disgraceful little tricks." Mark shook his head and said, "Why would I?
We businessmen always keep our words! It's only up to Miss George's ability to see if Amos can return safely to you!" Eudora no longer paid him any attention. She walked straight to her seat and sat down.
Clint had already arrived, whispering in Eudora's ear,
He whispered in Eudora's ear, "There is still no news now. I don't know if the other party will send their help."
Eudora clenched her fists and said in a low voice.
She said in a low voice, "Where's Charlie? Call him over."
Clint cast a suspicious look at Eudora, "Madam, what do you want to do?"
Eudora did not heed him and repeated, "Call Charlie."
Clint had no choice but to turn around and call Charlie. After a while, Eudora whispered to Charlie.
After a while, Eudora whispered to Charlie, "I know you still have another group of people under you. Have you seen Mark? His attention is fully on the stock market now. I suspect that he has actually already brought Amos here and has put him in a hidden place. You'd better take a few people to investigate around. It's best to rescue Amos before Mark replaces out. In that case, even if we can't fulfil our end of the bet, Amos will be fine."
The expression on Charlie's face changed slightly, "Who will look after you after I leave? President Granger had asked me to protect you!"
"There are so many people here. What are you afraid of? Wesley and Clint are here, aren't they? Don't worry about me."
Charlie took a look at the media and security around him and only then did he feel a little more relieved.
"Okay, I'll arrange for it immediately!"
After Charlie left, Wesley came in from the outside.
"Madam, Mr. Louis and the others are here!"
When Eudora got up, she saw that Harley and Christopher had come.
Harley came up to her.
He immediately dissed her unhappily, "Eudora, who are you looking down on? Why didn't you ask us for help in such a big issue? Do you think that we don't have enough money?" Eudora was tongue-tied.
Christopher also said in a deep voice, "If I hadn't seen the news, Tina and I wouldn't have known such a big thing has happened. Wesley has told us your plans. I really don't have much money, but I'll do my best to help. It's not a big deal. It would be easier on us if we went bankrupt together!"
Harley also nodded, "Yes! When the time comes, we'll move to that wooden cabin in the forest in the mountains to live. How wonderful that will be!"
Eudora frowned, "Why aren't you discussing this with me first?"
