My Second Husband novel Chapter 26

In the President's office in Valiant East Group.

When Gordon George entered the room, he saw Amos Granger leaning lazily on the executive chair. A coffee-coloured poodle was resting on his lap.

The man gently stroked the puppy's fur.

A man was seen kneeling down pathetically in front of Amos and he suddenly slapped himself hard. Gordon recognized the man. His name is Clement Zayn and he was the director of a company owned by one of the most influential families in Rosaville City.

The last time Gordon saw Clement was when he went over his company to ask for his help to support the George family. But at that time, Clement had refused to meet him and rejected his beg for help.

Never in Gordon's mind did he expect that even the arrogant Clement Zayn had to face the wrath of Amos Granger.

"Mr. Granger, I admit that it is my fault for being so ignorant. I didn't know that it was your puppy. Please forgive me!"

Amos ignored his pleas and continued petting his poodle.

Gordon's heart skipped a beat. He knew what was happening.

Yesterday, he hit Eudora. Amos made such a big fuss over his small little puppy. Gordon knew he was doomed.

Amos turned around to look at Gordon. The man had exceptionally handsome features, but the moment he stared at him, Gordon felt unease spread through his body.

Even though Gordon was a veteran in the business society, he couldn't help but tremble at the sight of the young man sitting in front of him.

"Mr.... Mr. Granger."

"Hm." Amos acknowledged his presence.

Amos pointed to the sofa in the middle of the room, "Sit down first, I'll talk to you after I'm done with him."

He stroked the puppy's head and then opened his mouth.

"So which foot did you use to kick it?"

Clement, who was kneeling on the ground, was stunned and his face turned pale. "Mr. Granger..."

"Which foot?" Amos asked again.

"Left...left foot..."

"You know what to do then!" Amos said coldly.

"Mr. Granger..." Clement crawled forward and held on Amos' legs. "I know I was wrong. I won't do it again."

Clint Zuckerberg frowned "Mr. Granger does not repeat what he says. I urge you to do it now before the bodyguards come and help you to it!"

Clement knew if Amos' men came in, he would be losing more than just a leg.

Clement shook his head quickly. He looked at his feet and hesitated for a moment. He then picked up the stick next to him and hit his foot hard.

"Ah!!!"

Gordon stood up in shock when he heard Clement's screams of pain.

Clint immediately ordered his men to pull Clement out of the room.

Gordon turned to look at the direction the man had left and his whole body began to tremble.

Amos put down the puppy on the floor and got up from his seat. He slowly walked over to Gordon.

"I'm sure you already know the reason you're here?"

Gordon's heart was beating wildly against his chest. "You... you want my daughter to get a divorce from Felix? But if the Meyer family doesn't want to do it, I can't do anything either."

"No!" Amos roared.

Gordon shivered at the man's cold voice. He knew he was not going to be able to escape this time.

"Then..."

"Eudora went back to her family home yesterday afternoon and didn't return until it was late at night. When I found her, her arm was bleeding. Do you know what happened?"
