Seeing that Amos Granger did not speak, the Old Master then added.
"It's okay, I've known it for a while now. So, I have to plan for when I am gone. I am at ease knowing that Valiant East will be in your hands, but Eudora..."
When he mentioned Eudora, Amos's body became tense. It was as if he had poked him with daggers, and the old man immediately shut up.
"Forget it. Let's not talk about her. I've already made arrangements for the will. I had asked you to come in here for your opinion about Vincent. After all, he is your brother's son. And your mother..."
The old man realized that he had accidentally spilled the beans, and then he changed his mind, "And Bethany has been with me for half of my life. I am thinking of giving 10% of the shares in Valiant East to Vincent and 5% to Bethany. What do you think?"
Amos Granger shrugged and merely put his hands into his trousers pocket.
"I have no comment," He really didn't. He didn't like money very much, especially now that he had Juju and Eudora. He was envious of people who were able to spend all their time with their wives and children. There were numerous times when he wanted to drop everything so that he could spend time with Eudora and Juju.
The Old Master thought that he was angry, so he explained.
"I have wronged your brother..."
"As you wish!" Amos didn't hope him still felt guilty. Although he didn't say it, there was still concern in his eyes.
The old man immediately smiled and said, "Well, that's good. I hope that you will keep this a secret for now. You know what your uncle will think of it. Bethany is relatively aloof from the world, and I'm afraid that she can't compete with them. So, I have to hand this matter over to you. When the dust settles in the future, you can talk to them."
"So, are you just feeding me to the wolves?" Amos frowned.
The old man was stunned, but then he smiled again, "You are my son. You already have a target on your back since the day you took over Valiant East. You cannot run away from it."
Amos sighed, "If possible, I would rather you be the target yourself."
His voice was so low that the Old Master could not hear him clearly. When the Old Master asked him to repeat himself, Amos just shook his head.
"Nothing."
"Ask Uncle Harry and the others to come in. I want to announce this."
Amos exited the room. Harry Granger and others were already a mess outside. When Harry saw Amos approaching them from the room, he quickly got up and asked, "How is my brother?"
"He wants all of you to go into the room." After Amos finished speaking, Harry immediately rushed into the room. Kaylene Yoder and Bethany Hamilton followed suit.
Amos came over and took Juju from Eudora, "Let's

go.
Eudora looked at Amos with a worried expression, "Are you alright?" Although Amos's face looked blank, Eudora could sense his cold demeanor.
Amos looked back at Eudora. That was why he said that on this earth, only this woman could fully understand him.
"Don't worry!"
After that, he took Eudora's hand and the three of them walked into the Old Master's room.
The Old Master was already sitting up on the bed, and he looked a little weak. Harry stood the closest to the bed, and right next to him were Kaylene and Steven Granger.
