After they were done for the day, Amos Granger said to Clint Zuckerberg, I'll be going home first. If anything comes up, we’ II talk about it tomorrow morning."
They had been working late recently. Today, he could finally have dinner with Eudora George.
Clint's phone suddenly rang. He picked it up and suddenly stopped Amos. "Sir, the Old Master has asked you to go back for dinner."
Amos frowned. "Did he say what it is about?"
"No" replied Clint.
Amos nodded. He wanted to go over immediately, but after thinking for a while, he called Eudora.
"I have something to do, so I have to go back to the mansion for a while. See you tonight."
"Okay!" Eudora hung up and returned to her work on the computer.
Dinner was already prepared when Amos arrived at the Granger mansion.
The extended family members had basically lost their place in the Granger family because of what had happened before. However, because of the old man's consideration, they were still living in the mansion.
Amos' second uncle snorted when he saw Amos coming in, but he didn't say anything else.
Amos greeted them quietly and sat down. Old Master Granger glanced at him and said, "Didn't you say that you and Eudora are a match made in heaven? How come you’re thinner than before?"
Amos frowned slightly and immediately understood why the Old Master called him back this time.
Amos found an excuse and said, "I’ve been busy with the company lately."
Old Master Granger didn't say anything more and soon the dishes were served. When dinner was over, he commanded Amos. "Come upstairs with me!"
When they left, his second aunt and uncle looked at each other, and their eyes were filled with mischief.
In the study room upstairs, Old Master Granger didn't say anything. Instead, he began to talk about the old days with Amos.
"The thing that you asked me about the last time, I'd thought about it for a long time after I came back. It's true that I didn't handle it well. I didn't take good care of you and your mother, and I let you suffer abroad for so many years. Now that you’ ve returned, Valiant East is also doing well. I heard that your illness is improving too, so I think it's time for you to get married. My old comrade-in-arms, the Shelby family..."
Upon hearing this, Amos immediately interrupted him.
"I refuse!"
Old Master Granger's eyes turned cold. "Are you refusing because of Eudora George?"
"Yes!" said Amos bluntly.
Old Master Granger's face gradually became dark. Soon, he sighed in exasperation. "You might not know a lot of things. From what I see, the Meyer Family was innocent too. You will soon understand this."
After that, he handed a recording pen to Amos.
When the recording played, a woman's voice said, "She was the one who killed the person my brother-in-law loved. My brother-in-law hated her so much!"
Felix Meyer's lover?
Amos frowned. After a while, he said, "So what? The Meyer Family is now a thing of the past."
Old Master Granger couldn't help but say, "Flow can such a sly woman enter the Granger family? She killed Felix's lover in order to marry him. It's not impossible for her to pretend to be bullied by the Meyer Family on purpose just to be with you!"
"Impossible!" Amos was determined. "I believe in her." After that, he turned around and walked out.
"Fool..." Old Master Granger angrily raised his head. "I'm doing this for your own good."
Upon hearing this, Amos’ footsteps paused slightly. "If you're doing this for me for my own good, then don't. Otherwise, I’ll willingly give up Valiant East."
Old Master Granger sat on the chair. What did he just hear? Fie was willing to give up on Valiant East for that woman?
