Amos was not in a hurry. He poured himself a glass of red wine, sat down, and tasted it carefully.
"Hadn't you always been a professional playboy? You've found true love, yet you failed to notice it."
Harley was already half-drunk. "What true love? I truly love her, yet she only treats me as an escort! She even paid me for sleeping with her!"
Amos smiled unkindly. Harley was complaining as he looked at Amos.
Amos rubbed his nose and said, "Sorry, I couldn't help myself."
Harley sighed. "God, why don't you just let me be alone? Women are unreliable, and now even buddies are unreliable too!"
Amos rolled his eyes at him.
All of a sudden, his phone rang, and it was from his sweet daughter.
"Daddy, when are you coming back? Mommy said that she is cooking your favorite chicken!"
Amos replied decisively, "I'm on my way."
Then, he stood up and kicked Harley. "Alright, enough is enough. I'm going home for dinner. Do you want to come along?"
Harley regretted it bitterly. "As I have said, even buddies are unreliable! I want to be a monk, and I will stay a monk for the rest of my life!"
Amos's lips curled up. "You're not coming then? Fine by me!"
The next second, Harley got up decisively, "I'm going! I'll go, alright? It's so boring here. It would be great to have a taste of Eudora's cooking!"
In Valiant East, Steven held Kesha in his arms and kissed her ear, "You've done well this time. You deserve to be my capable helper."
Kesha's face was full of pride, "You are so excellent. I have to go all out to be worthy of you!"
Steven kissed Kesha several more times before he finally let go of her.
"Oh, by the way, have you heard? Felix has been sent away!"
Steven said.
Kesha was stunned and she looked at Steven guiltily. She shook her head wryly after confirming that he was just saying it casually.
"When did that happen? I'm not sure."
"Just two days ago! I heard that when he was sent to the boat, his lower body was covered with blood, as though he was almost dead," Steven's voice was a little cold. "Amos really doesn't show mercy."
Kesha was so scared that her whole body trembled, as though she could feel the pain spreading through her body.
"Amos... Amos is really ruthless." Steven revealed a sly smile. "Of course he is. Otherwise, how would he have survived all those years? What's wrong? Are you afraid?"
Steven said with a smile.
Kesha shook her head hurriedly and cleared her throat.
"I'm not. This has nothing to do with me. It's all Felix's fault!"
Steven agreed and said, "It's a pity that our efforts were in vain. It did not seem to affect Amos the slightest. What a pity."
"That's not necessarily true, right?" Kesha suddenly said.
Steven was stunned. "What do you mean?"
"I'm not sure. I just feel that there's something odd about my sister."
Steven seemed to have noticed it too, now that Kesha had brought it up, "You're right. It was rather odd. It seems like she had become much more outspoken than she was before."
Kesha nodded, "That's right, it's a pity that I couldn't get close to her now. She hates me very much, and the family also keeps a close eye on me. I couldn't find anything."
Steven smiled and said, "What's so difficult about it?"
He immediately called Christopher's design company.
