My Second Husband novel Chapter 5

Three days later, in the Granger family’s mansion.

On the second floor of the mansion was a study room. It was decorated in a subtle but luxurious European style. The room had a black theme, symbolising calmness and quietness.

Harley Louis leaned against the window and chattered incessantly.

"The old guys in the Granger family are really one of a kind. When they saw you come back, I swear they were cursing you under their breaths. But they still had to pretend to welcome you home. They really should get Oscars for their acting."

Amos Granger paid no heed to Harley's chatter. His slender fingers were holding a cigarette which had stopped burning since a while ago.

When Harley finally stopped talking, Amos asked, "Where's the person I asked you to look for?"

Harley gulped. "It's really not my fault. That part of town is really messy and underdeveloped so there weren't any survelliance cameras there for the longest time."

Their conversation was interrupted by a knock on the door. The servant spoke softly, "First Young Master, the preparation has been completed. Old Master invites you downstairs."

"Got it." Outside the Granger Family's mansion, Eudora George's body was stiff as ice as she looked numbly at the ground.

She wore a red shoulder-length dress, emphasising her perfect figure and complementing her pale fair skin. After dressing up, she looked like a delicate red rose.

Felix Meyer nodded in satisfaction and warned her in a low voice, "This is a big event we're going to. You'd better behave well and don't make any trouble. Otherwise, there will be consequences."

After that, he grabbed Eudora’s arm and stepped into the Granger's family's mansion.

Eudora attracted everyone's attention the moment she and Felix entered the hall. Felix enjoyed the attention - the feeling of being envied by other men. Fie tightened his grip on Eudora.

As soon as Amos went downstairs, he saw a beautiful figure and stopped.

"What are you looking at?" Harley asked.

"Who is that?"
