Wendy Liam was still waiting for Amos’ reply. "Amos? What do you think?"
However, she noticed that Amos Granger was lost in his thoughts. After calling his name a few times, he finally came back to his senses.
"What's wrong?"
"What were you thinking about?" Wendy asked, "Were you thinking about Miss George?"
Amos shook his head and answered, "No, this is delicious!"
"Really?" Wendy asked in excitement and said, "Then I'll cook for you again tomorrow."
"There’s no need for that," Amos interjected. "Clint takes care of my meals every day. You have your own design studio to take care of, so don't waste your time coming here."
"It's not a waste of time," Wendy claimed. "I come here willingly!"
Amos frowned and said, "As I had said before, we each have our own lives. Your design studio needs to be on the right track. You'd better focus on it more in the future!"
Wendy was shocked when she heard what he said. The joy in her heart instantly vanished.
She thought that she could take this opportunity to get closer to Amos. "Amos..." Wendy was not willing to give up. "Even if you have someone you love deeply, can't we still be friends? I've always heard that President Granger from Valiant East is a man who knows how to repay kindness. Are you being mean to someone who had saved your life before?"
Upon hearing that, Amos' fingers started tapping the table.
Wendy felt a burst of excitement in her heart. Did she succeed?
There were not many men who could endure such provocation.
Amos raised his head at the very next second and looked at her with his deep eyes, "Are you threatening me?"
Wendy's face suddenly turned pale. "No, I was just saying..."
Amos snorted and said, "This kind of provocation does not work on me. Since you have heard that I am a man who knows how to repay kindness, you should know that I can turn against you in a heartbeat too!"
Wendy was shocked. "I know that, Amos. I was just confused. Please don't be angry. I'll go back now. I'll focus on running that design studio that you had set up for me!"
After that, she hurriedly got up and fled Amos' office.
When she walked to the door, she almost bumped into Clint Zuckerberg. Clint frowned and hurried inside. When he saw that Amos was alright, he was relieved. "President Granger, why was Miss Liam running away?"
"I told her to leave!" Amos said.
"Why?" Clint asked surprisingly.
Amos didn't respond. It took him quite some time to speak, "Clint, do you think that a person can change?"
Clint thought for a moment and said, "Probably!"
"For example?
"For example, if the person had gone through a major trauma or incident, that person might change!"
Amos nodded simply. "Perhaps!"
After coming out of the office, Wendy realized that she had lost her composure. Flow could she be so rude towards Amos? She used to be brave and fearless, and now she had become such an anxious and weak person.
There was no way to turn back time. Wendy could only move on and let nature take its course.
As she was still thinking about it, a car drove past her.
She saw Eudora George sitting in the driver's seat. She coincidentally still had doubts that needed to be clarified. So, she hurriedly ran over.
Eudora had to drive past that road every day to go to the construction site. But today, she realized that someone was following her. Her driving skills were decent, so she sped up.
