My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 72

Eudora was so happy. She ran towards Amos and gave him a kiss.

She sealed his lips with a French kiss and said, "Oh look at you!"

She burst into laughter when she saw the man's lips covered with red smears from her lipstick.

After breakfast, they went to work separately.

She wasn't in the office for nearly half a month. She felt a little nervous when she was on her way.

TEM Inc. had changed the decoration of the company after acquiring it. Now it looked a lot more

professional.

Eudora went upstairs. The entire office was unusually quiet.

The atmosphere in the company was suffocating. It was as if the company was in another crisis.

She quickly entered her office when a chill ran down her spine.

Eudora crept toward her seat carefully in the noiseless office. She turned around immediately when

she heard footsteps behind her.

Bang! Christopher smiled at her. He had a party popper in his hand.

He exclaimed, "Welcome back!"

Eudora covered her chest and looked at her colleagues. "You guys scared me to death!" She shouted.

"You must be thinking that our company is going to close down again, aren’t you?" Christopher teased.

"President Gellert, you shouldn’t say that!" One of the colleagues replied with a smile.

"Yes, President Gellert! You have to treat us to coffee today in return."

"Sure!" Christopher exclaimed, "Coffee is on me!"

"Thank you, President Gellert!" Everyone went back to their seats afterward.

Eudora was ready to work. Now that no one was going to disturb her again, she took out her design

drafts.

"This is the draft I drew at home recently. However, I have a few safety concerns. Please have a look. I

will make the necessary amendments if there is any problem," said Eudora.

Christopher took the draft from her and studied it carefully. He replied, "It seems like you're in a good

mood. President Granger must be treating you well."

"Not too bad!" Eudora answered with a smile.

Christopher raised his eyebrows. "That's good. I'll have a look at this first and we'll talk later."

Christopher turned around and was about to leave the office. He paused for a while and suggested,

"Let’s have a team dinner tonight to celebrate your return. I’m sure President Granger would not be too

bothered by it. Am I right?"

Eudora was surprised at Christopher's words. She rolled her eyes secretly when she remembered the

argument between Christopher and Amos.

"I will be there on time," Eudora agreed instantly.

"That's good!" Christopher replied.

After Christopher left, Eudora pondered for a while and sent a message to Amos.

It read, "Attending a team dinner tonight. Will be home late."

Soon, Amos replied, "Enjoy.”

It was totally unanticipated. Eudora pursed her lips and replied, "MUA~".

Amos grinned at Eudora’s text. The department manager, who was reporting his weekly progress,

stared at him in disbelief. The documents in his hands dropped on the floor.

He thought, “What did I just see? Did he just smile?"

In the evening. At Shelby’s private club.

The colleagues were babbling among themselves.

"I can’t believe that President Gellert is so generous. This place looks expensive," said one of them.

"This is all thanks to Eudora. Otherwise, why would he spend so much money?" Another one teased.

Eudora was astounded at their remarks. She chimed in, "Don't make this kind of joke. President Gellert

treats everyone equally."

They looked at each other and chuckled.

One of the colleagues stood up and suggested, "Let's have a toast! If it weren't for Eudora and

President Gellert, we might have lost our jobs!" "That’s right! To Eudora!" A man added.

Everyone lifted their glasses in the air. Eudora finished a glass of wine at one shot. But, they didn't

want to let her go and made her get up for another round of toast.

Christopher stood in front of Eudora and stopped them.

"Shouldn’t you all propose a toast to your boss first?"

One of them screamed, "Wooo, are you protecting her now?"

Eudora blushed and answered quickly, "It doesn't matter. I can handle this!"

Christopher took another glass with Eudora, too.

He jabbered, "C’ mon, let’s drink to our hearts' satisfaction!"

Eudora frowned while the colleague next to her asked curiously,

"Eudora, do you know President Gellert visited you every day when you were hospitalized?"

Another lady in black suit added, "That's right. I saw his car several times when I passed by."

Eudora thought, “But I had only seen him once."

"I was just doing my work. Stop talking nonsense!" Christopher quickly explained.

Eudora nodded and smiled awkwardly. "I need to use the washroom."

Christopher quickly chased after her and asked, "Are you okay? They are just making jokes." "I'm fine!"

Eudora turned around and went to the washroom.

She splashed some water on her face and leaned against the washroom door for a while. Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

She was a little dizzy when she was on her way back to the room. A man stood in front of her and

blocked her way.

"Hey, beauty! Why are you alone?"

Eudora cursed in her heart and answered, "My boyfriend is over there. He will come and look for me

soon if I don't go back."

The man was not surprised. "So what? Ask your boyfriend to come and fight with me. Let’s see who is

stronger?"

He reached out his hand and grabbed Eudora's arm. Eudora took a step back and frowned. "Get out of

my way."

"Ohh, you’re tough! I like it!" He pulled her into his arms.

In another private room in Shelby’s private club.

Amos took a sip of wine from the glass in his hand. Harley Louis was babbling next to him.

"Why did you buy that place? I thought you’ re reluctant to talk about it."

Amos’ expression changed slightly. "Let bygones be bygones. Time to bid farewell to the past."

"That's true!" Harley sighed. "We'll tear the place down, build a playground, and bury all the unpleasant

things. Let’s do whatever we want!" Amos didn't say a word. He was reminded of Eudora’ s confession.

Her voice echoed in his mind. "I'll always be with you."

He nodded while the corners of his lips curled up slightly.

Harley immediately covered his mouth. "Something’ s going on! Boss, you're so in love!"

Amos threw a lighter at him and roared, "Shut up!"

While they were talking, the door was pushed open from the outside and a group of people rushed in.

Thomas Shelby entered the room with two beautiful women in his arms while his men followed behind

him. "President Granger, it's so difficult for me to find you!"

Amos frowned and immediately greeted, "President Shelby, it's been a while since we last met."

Thomas sneered, "It really is. I even helped you when we met previously. But why did you ruin my

business? How should we settle this now?"
