My Second Husband novel Chapter 604

Amidst her thoughts, Tyler said something to her abruptly,

"Eudora, go and get me some water!"

Eudora knew that he had something to tell Fabian, so she went straight out as told.

After she left, Tyler looked at Fabian and said, "Thank you very much for last night!"

Fabian shook his head and replied, "Uncle Holt, please don't be so courteous. It’s something I should have done anyway!"

Tyler smiled with satisfaction, "You've really lived up to my expectations, Fabian. The reason I asked you to stay was because I wanted to discuss with you the project you mentioned to me last time."

Fabian's heart skipped a beat and he asked, "Uncle Holt, have you already made a decision? When are we going to sign the contract?"

Tyler shook his head with a wry smile, "I did make a decision, but I'm afraid that we can't sign the contract..."

The smile on Fabian's face gradually disappeared, "Uncle Holt..."

"I'm sorry! It's really my fault this time. I originally thought that since Eudora was my daughter, I should decide and plan everything for her. However, after this incident, I've understood something now. I was too selfish. No wonder Emily always refused to forgive me back then."

However, Fabian couldn't accept it at all at the moment. He tried to plead, "Uncle Holt, please listen to me. I really like Eudora, I..."

"I know!" Tyler chuckled and comforted him softly.

"I know you like Eudora. I didn't say that you can't be with Eudora from now onwards. I just don't want to interfere with her choices anymore. You can still court her as you did before, but let's put the project aside for the time being. I won't force her to sign it unless she is willing to do so!"

"But... it'll be too late!" Fabian suddenly blurted out.

Tyler was stunned and asked, "What? Fabian, is there something wrong?"

Fabian realized that he had said something wrong and hurriedly shook his head, denying it, "No, I am just worried. My father always hoped that I could marry Eudora as soon as possible. I always thought that I could, but I didn't expect things to turn out like this..."

"I'm sorry!" Tyler patted Fabian's shoulder and continued, "If you want to blame someone, blame me. Don't blame Eudora for it. She has always been resisting my words since I'm the one who was always giving her pressure."

Fabian frowned. Just then, his cell phone rang. He picked it up and went out of the ward.

It was Callum, who sounded quite nervous on the other side of the phone.

"Boss, did you solve the problems over there? When are you going to sign the contract with the Holt family?"

"Why? What happened?"

Callum cursed, "D*mn it, we've been fooled. I always thought that it would be fine as long as I keep an eye on the Yeagers, but I didn't expect them to trick us! I received a piece of news just now that the amount of money we used to lure them was taken away by them! To make matters worse, it was transferred out in a very normal way through an engineering transfer fund. The information about our new projects was also leaked. Now, those scholars have already disappeared. Our opponents are also going to commence working tomorrow. Once they have started, we won't be able to defend ourselves anymore. By then, they will accuse us of plagiarizing their projects! Now, the company's entrance is surrounded by a lot of people. What should we do?"

Fabian's expression changed slightly as he asked, "Where's the project? Let's start today then!"

Callum groaned, "I want to start too, but we don't have money now. Didn't I just say that all the money was either spent or taken away already? Now, we can only count on the Holt family! What did they tell you? Can we use the money now?"

Thinking of Tyler's words, Fabian felt extremely agitated.

"No! I'll think of another way!"
