Eudora had deliberately worked the morning shift. She went back home to change and went to the press conference with Amos.
Wendy's press conference was huge. It was tailored according to the standards of big fashion brands. Of course, Amos had provided her the best resources to do so.
Auntie Agnes was waiting outside. When she saw Amos' car coming in, she hurried to inform Wendy.
"Mr. Granger is here!"
Wendy hurried out and saw Eudora walking in with her hand wrapped around Amos' arms.
She was stunned for a moment, and her expression gradually darkened.
But soon, she put on a smiling face and walked up to him with a familiar smile. "Amos, I didn't expect you to bring Eudora along. I'm very glad."
Amos didn't say a word. There were already many people who had swarmed to greet him once he got off the car.
Eudora was not interested in them. She came here today for Wendy.
So, she let go of Amos and said. "Go ahead. I'll sit here for a while."
Amos knew that she never liked crowds, so he nodded and said, "Okay." After Amos left, Eudora found herself a seat and sat down. However, she had been paying attention to Wendy from the corner of her eyes.
Sure enough, Wendy went around the venue and eventually walked toward Eudora. She then sat down next to her.
"I'm sorry about what happened last time. I was in a bad mood then, so I said things that I shouldn't have. Since you're here today, let me propose a toast to you."
Eudora looked at her. Her judgment was accurate. Wendy really was good at pretending. One moment she was hostile to her, the next she was nice to her.
However, since Wendy was willing to keep up the facade, perhaps she should just play along with her. After all, two could play this game.
"Okay!" Eudora raised her hand and clinked glasses with her gracefully.
Wendy paused and scrutinized Eudora's expression. She then finally said with a smile, "Are you really not angry at me?"
"Why should I be? Didn't you say that you were in a bad mood? What's wrong? Aren't you in a good mood now?"
Her nonchalant attitude made Wendy even more uncertain. She gradually showed a hesitant expression. Eudora saw this and said, "Why do you look like you're scared of something? What are you afraid of?"
"Nothing!" Wendy immediately retorted, "I'm not afraid!" "That's good. I'm afraid Amos would blame it on me if you passed out in fear again," Eudora said flatly.
"How could that be?" Wendy let out a dry laugh, and the two of them became silent.
Eudora lowered her head and swirled the glass in her hand. She was still scrutinizing Wendy from the corner of her eyes.
Wendy looked as if she was thinking about something. After a while, she came up to Eudora again.
"My design company has been doing well lately. My psychologist advised me to go on a trip. Where would you recommend?"
Eudora was stunned. "You're asking the wrong person. I'd never traveled."
"Have you never gone for a trip?" Wendy pretended to be surprised. "How could that be? Are you mistaken?"
Eudora's heart skipped a beat, and she pursed her lips. "Are you saying that my memory is inaccurate?"
Wendy frowned. "I don't know."
However, she still didn't give up and said, "When I was in the United States, I heard about Hawaii and San Diego, but I didn't have a chance to go there. I wonder if it's fun. What do you think?"
Eudora shook her head.
Wendy said with a regretful look, "That's really a pity. I heard that San Diego's beach is very beautiful. Hawaii is also a popular holiday destination." When she said those words, images of blue skies and beaches suddenly appeared in front of Eudora's eyes. Along with sea breeze, the waves crashed against the shore.
