My Second Husband novel Chapter 622

Amos stood in front of the window in the quiet study room. He had not moved for an hour.

As soon as Harley entered the door, he saw Wesley grinning at him.

"Mr. Amos is in a bad mood. Mr. Louis, could you maybe talk to him?"

Harley snorted, "You guys spoil him so much that he always puts up an attitude with you. Watch and learn!"

Wesley looked at Harley in shock and gaped, "Mr. Louis, are you serious?"

"Of course, where is the child? Bring Sugar Bun here!"

Sugar Bun was already awake. Wesley carried the child to him and warned, "Watch out, don't hurt our young master."

Harley didn't think much of it, but he made sure to carry Sugar Bun gently so as not to accidentally hurt him.

Then, he proceeded to walk to the study and kicked open the door.

Wesley's face was filled with admiration. It was the first time that he had seen someone other than Miss George being so rampant in front of Amos.

He watched as Harley entered the room boldly. He couldn't help but perk up his ears and listen carefully to the conversation inside.

Harley had taken a few strides over to Amos, his face all righteous and determined.

"There's already a mess outside. How can you still have the energy to enjoy the scenery here? What do you want to do? You should have a plan by now," As he said this, Harley handed Sugar Bun to Amos.

"And your child, you..."

In fact, Harley had noticed the tense ambiance when he entered. However, since he had already started talking, he had to bite the bullet and continue talking.

Amos cast a side-eye at Harley coldly.

Harley immediately stopped trying to say anything and forced a dry smile, "Look at your son, isn't he cute?"

Wesley, who had been waiting for Harley to show his true prowess, almost fell onto the floor laughing.

Hah! And here he was, thinking that Harley was pretty admirable to stand up to Amos!

Even after Harley was done talking, the atmosphere was still tense. He then went on to compliment the interior in the study in an effort to cheer Amos up.

"Your taste is much better than before. This room matches your temperament very well, it' s rather solemn and simplistic."

Wesley stood outside, utterly confused.

There were only one desk and a big bookshelf in the room. There wasn't a single decor inside, so how on earth did Harley manage to make up so many compliments?

"Forget it, it looks like I can’t learn anything from Mr. Louis," Wesley thought to himself in disappointment as he turned to leave.

Upon hearing Harley's words, Amos frowned and carried Sugar Bun, who was giggling, into his embrace with one arm.

"What are you here for?"

Harley took a deep breath. Finally, he managed to garner some sort of reaction from Amos.

"Of course, I'm looking for you because of something important. I've just received news that the Nolan family has received some funds out of nowhere and resolved some of their shortfalls. We don't know if the shortfalls were just temporarily solved, or forever..."

Amos frowned and said, "Aren't you guys supposed to investigate all their deeds that they conduct behind people's backs?"

"We were, that's why it's so strange. This time, we didn't find anything out of place. I suspect that there's something in the Nolan family that we don't know about."

"So?" Amos questioned him.

Harley suddenly smiled and said, "As expected, you immediately understood my intentions. I know that the Granger family's Valiant East Company has always abided by the law closely. Therefore, I came up with the idea of asking you for help..."

"Don't flatter me! Get straight to the point."

Harley stopped in his tracks.
