Amos snorted and said, "Good thing your work attitude is still up to standard. Whatever you have on your hands, you can do them after work tomorrow. But for now, I need you to find the best nursing home in Rosaville City. I want to hear from you tomorrow morning."
Clint was at a loss for words.
Could he call him Satan?
But of course, he could never say that out loud!
Clint took a deep breath and said, "Okay, I'll do it right away!"
After hanging up, Clint saw Anya's reply, "I'm home. What about you?"
Since there wasn't a reply after a few minutes, she then sent another message. "Goodnight!"
Clint,"..."
He felt as though his heart was cut by a knife. That was the perfect chance to ask Anya out. Why did his boss have to call him just that exact moment...
On the other side, Amos sneezed.
When Eudora woke up the next day, she received some feedback on her iPad. She had evaluated several nursing homes the night before, but none of them qualified. However, they had sent another recommendation.
The environment was great. It was on top of a hill in the suburbs of Cloud City. One could enjoy the sight of red leaves falling during autumn.
Plus, reviews showed that their service was good.
It was specifically catered to the elderly who were not in good health. All the staff were equipped with medical knowledge so that immediate medical attention could be given during emergencies.
Most importantly, this nursing home was different from the others. It was in collaboration with Rosaville City Hospital, so it was a very professional nursing home.
The more information she read about the nursing home, the more satisfied she was. She immediately contacted them.
Soon, they arranged for Gordon's stay. Once the agreement was signed, Gordon could be transferred there immediately.
Everything went so smoothly!
Eudora was humming happily to herself while Amos watched from behind. When Eudora went out to settle the bills, he gave Clint a call.
"I'm calling you to remind you that you are required to work overtime after lunch."
Clint was confused.
"Are you not satisfied with what I've arranged? That nursing home is the best one in Rosaville City!"
"Anya will also be working overtime."
Clint was startled, "So, this is a reward!"
He thanked Amos immediately, "Thank you,
President Granger!"
What a considerate boss! However, how did his boss know that he liked Anya? Was there anything that could sweep past his eyes?
After Eudora got up the next morning, she found that Amos was already up.
"Are you sending your father off to the nursing home today? I'll go with you." Amos said.
"But your injury..."
"It's okay, I'm alright!" After saying that, Amos held Eudora's hand.
"It's cold outside, I'll get you a coat."
Time sure passed by quickly, it was almost midautumn in the blink of an eye. Although Rosaville City was not as cold as it was in the north, the temperature had dropped a lot.
He took a coat and put it on Eudora, and the two of them went out together.
Gordon had already packed up all his things when they arrived at the George's. There wasn't much, just the two essentials that he used every day.
His things were all on the sofa outside, but he was nowhere to be seen.
Eudora thought that he was flying the kite again. She looked around and finally saw him in the garden. He was watering the flowers and it looked as though he was saying goodbye to his old friends.
