Amos burst into laughter and said, "Then let me give you a piece too, my little princess."
Juju took the piece of pancake with a smile and said, "Thank you, Daddy!"
The three of them were eating happily when the Old Master came in, "You brat, are you challenging me now? Don't you care about the company's affairs anymore?"
Amos swallowed the food in his mouth casually and said feebly, "I haven't recovered yet."
"You...." The Old Master gritted his teeth, "I have asked Doctor Leon this morning and he said that your wound has healed and there is nothing serious. What do you want? Just tell me. Don't beat around the bush like that."
Amos picked up his glass and took a sip of milk. "Let's go out and talk!"
Hearing this, Eudora George glanced at him. Amos turned to flash a smile at her. "It's alright. Wait for

me.
Amos and the Old Master were sitting across each other in the garden.
There was still contempt in the old man's face and he said, "I know what you're up to. Let me tell you, I won't let you get married to that woman. Since I'm still alive, I could still find another successor myself at most..."
"Do you still have a successor?" Amos asked pointedly and that question hit the old man's sore spot.
"You, you brat! I think you'd only be satisfied once I die!" As the Old Master spoke, he began to cough violently.
Amos frowned and he reached out to stroke the Old Master in the back. "Why are you still so grumpy at such an old age? Didn't the doctor say that you should mind your temper?"
His large hand patted Old Master Granger on his back. The old man was so shocked that he even forgot to cough.
Was Amos concerned about him just now?
The old man's expression changed slightly. He knew that he had misunderstood his son. The misunderstanding had lasted for so many years and he would never looked for Amos if his eldest son was still alive. He would not have known that he had misunderstood his mother too.
Therefore, he was ashamed to even explain it to him.
He thought that Amos would never forgive him for the rest of his life. He did not expect...
After a brief moment of stupor, Old Master Granger seemed to recall something suddenly and his face darkened.
"Are you trying to please me for that woman?
Amos was at a loss of words. "If you really want to think it that way, then I have nothing to say. Do you think that I really need to rely on you? Since you have asked someone to check on me, you should know that the companies under my name are on par with Valiant East. I could just leave Rosaville City with Eudora and Juju to live our own lives."
Old Master Granger got nervous when he heard that, "How dare you!"
"Who said that I wouldn't dare?!" Amos continued, "If you keep forcing me to do this, do you think that I wouldn't do that?"
"You...." Old Master Granger was about to throw a tantrum again when Amos reached out and stroked his back. "I admit that I have come back here to spite you, but I finally understand now that I have Juju. I don't need you to accept Eudora and Juju immediately, but I hope that you could get rid of the prejudice you have and give them a chance. You will realize that they are definitely better than what you had imagined them to be."
Old Master Granger remained silent. "You want me to accept her? Impossible."
"Whatever. Things had already reached this point and I don't mind if you want me to use a more intense method. I just thought that this is the best way for us."
Old Master Granger was quiet and he glanced sideways at Amos.
In fact, Amos looked very similar to his mother, especially his appearance. It seemed like he had inherited his looks mostly from his mother. Most of the time, when he saw Amos, he seemed to see his mother sitting next to him. This was also the reason why he didn't dare to see Amos previously. He had wronged his mother and he will never have the chance to make it up to her.
