My Second Husband novel Chapter 57

Eudora didn't think it was suitable to ask him now.

She hid her curiosity in her heart and looked at Amos worriedly. But he wasn't flustered at all.

He smiled, "Mr. Cooper, you don't have to be afraid of me. May I ask if your clients know that you have a habit of blaming others?"

"You..." Jeremy Cooper stuttered and was on verge of losing his temper. He swallowed his rage as Thomas was still there.

"We're not done with this!" He roared.

"I'll be waiting!" Jeremy left with Thomas right away. Thomas gazed at Amos with a puzzled look.

After they left, Amos asked Eudora, "Why are you still here?"

Eudora pursed her lips unconsciously and answered, "I have something to talk to Mr. Cooper. But, it's alright. I'm leaving now."

She didn't want to ask much as it was still within her working hours.

When they left the building, Harley teased, "It seems like Eudora is trying to hide something from you!"

Amos frowned and ordered, "Go and check it out."

Harley was always good at finding out secrets. He quickly got hold of the situation.

"I'm afraid that the Gellerts' Everpeace is going to be in very big trouble this time! It will be a good time for you to purchase it now. It's a pity that you're taking a break now. You shouldn't let Harry get it!"

"I'm not going to let him get it," Amos sneered while the golf ball fell into the hole.

"Then what are you going to do?" Harley asked curiously.

Amos kept quiet and put down his golf club. He put his hands in his pockets and walked out.

"Hey! Are you leaving?" Harley yelled.

"This is no fun!" Amos answered.

At Everpeace.

Eudora and Christopher looked discouraged when they came out of the room.

Christopher smiled bitterly and asked, "I'm sorry. Are you okay?"

Eudora shook her head. "I'm alright. Let's go back to the company first. Maybe we can think of other ways?"

Christopher nodded, but they were very clear that it was not possible.

They drove all the way back to the company. As soon as they arrived, an assistant was seen standing at the entrance waiting for them. "Sir, a group of people came and claimed that they want to see you."

"Who are they?" Christopher frowned.

"They said they are from TEM Inc..." The assistant replied. "TEM Inc?" Shocked, Christopher repeated. Everyone in the field knew this company.

TEM Inc had a history of more than ten years in the United States. But in recent years, they had expanded very quickly in this country. No one expected that TEM Inc would come and find them.

Christopher dashed up to the office with Eudora.

He could see five of their representatives seated around the table waiting for them when he opened the office door.

The leader got up and greeted them, "Hello, President Gellert. I'm David Zilon, one of the representatives of TEM Inc. I'm here to talk to you about our potential collaboration on behalf of TEM."

He instructed one of them to hand over some files to Christopher. "These are all the information on the current situation of Everpeace. After deducting all the expenses you have spent previously on the construction, as well as the other additional costs, including the compensation for the accidents happened and the court proceedings... The remaining amount in Everpeace is obviously not enough to hold up until the end of next month."
