My Second Husband novel Chapter 49

Old Master Granger was already notified about their arrival. It seemed that they had no choice but to go into the mansion.

Eudora George frowned and said, "I'm sorry, I've caused you trouble again."

Amos Granger shook his head. "It's not your fault," he said.

After entering the mansion, they realised that the whole yard was in a celebratory atmosphere. It was still early for dinner. Therefore, everyone gathered in the living room and chatted.

Steven Granger was a little proud of himself. He kept on telling Kaylene Yoder and the others about those tough questions he had during the interview session.

Harry Granger heard what Steven said when he entered the mansion. He couldn't help but tease him, "Well, I didn't even have those difficult questions last time."

Eudora couldn't help but let out a muffled laugh. "It must be you who did it, right?"

How could she still be in the mood to laugh at this time, Amos thought.

Then, he sighed and said, "If they make things difficult for you later..."

"I'm not afraid!" Eudora straightened her back and said, "I've seen worse in the Meyer family. Don't worry!"

Everyone stopped talking when they saw Amos and Eudora walking into the mansion. Samantha was unhappy when she saw Eudora holding on to Amos’ arm. Amos would normally keep at least half a meter away from others. But Eudora was able to get so close to Amos!

Steven greeted Amos and went upstairs.

Amos thought for a moment and said, "Let’s greet Dad together!"

In the backyard, Old Master Granger was feeding the fish beside the pond. A servant was holding a tray of fish food and following him closely from behind.

Old Master Granger said the moment they approached him, “Amos, please wait for me in the study room."

Amos took a glance at Eudora. He didn't move at all.

Old Master Granger noticed Amos' averted gaze. He said, "Are you afraid that I will do anything bad to her?"

Amos acknowledged. He squeezed Eudora’s hand, then turned around and left.

Eudora stood at the same spot for a while. She mustered her courage and walked over. She stood behind Old Master Granger and asked, "Sir, what can I do for you?"

‘Sir?’ Old Master Granger thought.

He stopped feeding the fish and said, "Well, it’s good that you know what to do. But, like I had said before, you do not bring any advantage to Amos."

"Why do you think so?" Eudora asked.

She felt that Amos was much happier than before.

"I don't need to tell you what kind of person Amos used to be. I believe you should know. I won't mention the incident in which Amos protected you from being beaten last time. I guess you have already known about the news this morning. As you can see, Amos doesn’t even care about the reputation of this family because of you."

Old Master Granger couldn’t help being agitated when he recalled reading the news from the paper.

Eudora's heart skipped a beat. She said, "Are you trying to say that Amos was behind the news this morning..."

She didn't finish her words because she could already guess the answer. It was no wonder that Amos seemed to know that Samantha would come to the restaurant today.

It turned out that these were all part of his plan.

"How much?" Old Master Granger asked again, interrupting her thoughts.

"What?" Eudora couldn't react in time.

"How much do you need so that you’ll leave Amos?" Old Master Granger asked.
