My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 773

Eudora decisively shook her head, "There's no way I'll do that!"

She would never hand over what had belonged to Amos to those greedy and unprincipled people.

This was tantamount to making Amos's life's work amount to nothing.

Her doing that was absolutely inconceivable!

Clint heaved a sigh of relief, "Actually, I don't agree with doing so either. This way, those people will only become greedier. However, there seems to be no other option other than this." While they were still talking, Archer came in from outside.

"Things aren't looking good. I've just received news that one of the projects, in which we are investing in, has suddenly been reported, and it says that we've broken the rules. The relevant departments have all gone over..."

"Sebastian..." Eudora gritted her teeth.

Clint was also furious, "They're going too far! They keep saying that the Granger family is theirs, but they're deliberately wrecking havoc to the Granger family's business for their own personal interests. If that's the case, as long as we don't compromise, they will keep causing trouble! Madam, I'm going to call the police to arrest him."

"It's useless!" Eudora said. "Since they've already done it, it's certain that they've also removed all traces. They have made it clear that they are going to fight us till the very end."

"Are we just going to watch the Granger family be destroyed in their hands?" Clint asked.

She answered, "Let me think about things for a bit!"

"I'll leave first then," he replied.

After Clint left, Eudora slowly leaned back on the chair and relaxed her tense body.

Was she scared? Honestly, she was, just a little.

She used to think that as long as Amos was around, she could remain as his trophy wife. Even if she had said that she wanted to earn money to take care of Amos, in actuality, it had always been him who had been standing behind, supporting her.

Now, she was really alone.

Eudora sniffed. A file on the table fell to the

ground.

When she bent down to pick it up, she saw a note under the table.

She picked up the note and read it. 'Hope is around the corner,' it wrote.

Those were words written by Amos. They gave off a vigorous and powerful vibe, exactly like how he was, giving her an immense sense of security.

That should have been his motto, because the note looked extremely old. However, it had always remained there.

Around the corner?

Hope was around the corner?

A thought flashed through Eudora's mind, and she immediately realized something.

"Thank you, Hubby. I know what to do now!"

A moment later, Eudora pushed open the office door.

Clint hurried to greet her, "Madam, they've urged us several times already."

"Let's go!" Eudora said.

When they arrived at the meeting room, Sebastian stood up and asked, "So? Have you thought it through?"

She looked at him coldly and said, "I hope you really can consider yourself as a member of the Granger family and properly maintain the family's business."

"Of course!" Sebastian felt as though things were finally within his reach, so his voice was excited.

"Really? Then, let's make a deal!" Eudora replied.

Reluctance was obvious on Sebastian's face as he asked, "What deal? There's nothing to be negotiated!"

"That would be unacceptable!" Eudora said as she walked to sit in the seat in front, "Didn't you tell me about the Granger family's rules before? I'll also tell you the rules I know. Amos and Steven had once beer the presidents of the Granger family, and each of them had faced a test to rise to this position. These were your own words: rules cannot be changed! Isn't that right?"

Sebastian was speechless. He did not expect that the words that he had uttered to shut her up, had now backfired to shut himself up.

"What's wrong? Are you scared? Is Mr. Sebastian Granger, who seems like a very powerful person, actually a coward?" Eudora continued.

No man would admit his own cowardice in front of such a crowd.

That was particularly true for Sebastian, who was eager for quick success and instant benefits. He'd love for the whole world to worship him. He was unhappy.

He snorted, "Isn't it just a bet? Why would I be afraid of you? What are we betting on?"

On the sidelines, Roger's face was full of anxiety, but it was already too late. Everyone's eyes immediately turned towards Eudora, and they were all trying to figure out how to deal with her.

In their opinion, she would definitely come up with a tough bet to handle Sebastian. They had to stop her in time.

However, they were surprised upon hearing her words.

She only said, "The requirements aren't too high. You only need to maintain the current statistics of the Valiant East Group for a month. The few ongoing projects must also be completed as scheduled." Sebastian, whose heart had been in his mouth, instantly relaxed.

"That's it? Are you patronizing me?"

Eudora chuckled coldly, "Yeah, if I made too big of a bet, I'm worried that you won't be able to accomplish it. This should just be about right!"

Sebastian choked inwardly. Wasn't she implying that he was incompetent?

"Just you watch. Not only will I keep the Valiant East Group stable, but I will also bring the company to greater heights. Then, you'll see who is the most suitable person to be part of the Granger family!" He had fallen into the trap!

Eudora curled up her lips in satisfaction, "Sure, but what will be the consequences if you don't succeed?"

Roger's heart sank, "Sebastian!"

The older ones were wiser after all. Roger could tell that Eudora was deliberately taunting Sebastian. Obviously, she had already figured out Sebastian's temper and knew that he lacked self-control. Hence, she had said that.

However, Sebastian had already been provoked, and he completely ignored Roger's concerns.

Confidently, he said, "If I can't do it, then I'll leave the Valiant East Group!"

"Very well!"

Eudora nodded and looked at other shareholders in the room.

"Did everyone hear that? He has said so himself. I hope everyone can be witnesses."

Roger said hurriedly, "Sebastian is merely joking. After all, the Granger family has existed for so many years. All of our data has been relatively steady. How can they be doubled in a month? His words were said in a fit of pique. Don't take them seriously!"

Roger was a cunning old fox. Upon hearing this, everyone regained their composure and came to their senses.

"That's right. I think we'd better discuss and contemplate this matter further."

Eudora looked shocked, "So, it was all a joke? That's terrible! I wanted to introduce the new president to the staff, so I had already asked someone to turn on the speakers in the conference room. Now, the whole company has already heard Mr. Sebastian Granger's grand words. Are you still going to take them back?"

Roger's face darkened, and he looked over to the surveillance system. As expected, he saw all the employees on each floor standing and looking into the surveillance cameras.

Eudora added more fuel to the fire.

She continued, "I'm so sorry, everyone. Mr.

Sebastian has never been with such a big audience before, so his words were a little exaggerated. Those were all boasts. Don't take them seriously! He said that he'll only stabilize the statistics, so don't have high expectations!"

Things would still be fine if she had not given an explanation, but the situation appeared worse after she did so.

Sebastian gritted his teeth and said, "Who said I was bragging? Dad, don't talk nonsense if you don't understand me. What I've said still stands. Today, I'm swearing an oath in front of all the employees of the company. If I can't manage the Valiant East Group after a month, I'll give it back and never interfere in the company's matters anymore in the future!"

After saying so, he strode out of the office.

Roger's face darkened. He glared at Eudora and said, "Don't think that you'll get your way. The Valiant East Group belongs to us, the Granger family!"
