The project manager, Gail, was a little reluctant to give up, "President Granger, I'm afraid that you're going against the rules, aren't you?"
"Which part of this is against the rules? Didn't you say that the partner should be chosen from the people in this room?"
"That's right!"
"Except for Eudora," Amos added.
"T-that's right!"
"A female!"
"Y-yes!"
"Then, what seems to be the problem?" Amos questioned.
"No..." Gail was speechless. Amos' logic was actually impeccable.
Only Juju clapped her hands happily. "Dad, can we sing the SpongeBob SquarePants theme song?"
When Juju was still young, Amos and Eudora had participated in a parent-child event held in their school and they had sung that song.
They originally thought that the little girl had
already forgotten about it after such a long time.
They did not expect that after so many years, she still remembered it.
Amos nodded. "Okay!"
Soon, the low voice of a man and the tender voice of a child sounded in the room. The combination of the two gave their audience a unique feeling.
Harley was envious while watching them, "Having a daughter isn't so bad!"
Eudora feverishly applauded her husband and children. Of course they would be excellent, for they were her husband and child. Wasn't this already enough for her to be proud for a lifetime? They were so exemplary!
After the song finished, Amos continued to spin the bottle.
This time, there was no doubt that it was Gail from Giant Star again.
There was a tremor of unease from Gail, and he said, "President Granger, you..."
Amos smiled harmlessly, "What a coincidence this is. Well, we have to treat visitors with the same manner. It's your time to perform now."
The corner of Gail's mouth twitched. He felt like he was being taken revenge on.
"Then, I'll take the 'dare'!"
Consequently, Amos picked up a large bottle of wine and put it on the table. "Drink!"
Gail was startled.
After learning from previous experience, he was smart this time. He got up and said, "Where are the glasses? President Granger, you just want me to have a glass of it, don't you?"
Amos put on an innocent face and said, "So you only want to have a glass? I thought you loved drinking so much since you drank the whole bottle of it just now, thus I've already asked the waiters to take all the glasses away. Sorry, if you don't want to fulfil my request, then I'll ask the waiter to bring them back!"
He deliberately emphasized the words 'don't want to fulfil my request'. Even if the man did not want to drink, he would not dare to say so.
In the business industry, rules had always been like this. One should show respect and complacency to someone who was more powerful than oneself.
Unless, one did not want to have a job in the business industry anymore.
Even though he felt extremely reluctant, he
still tried to smooth things over in the situation.
"What are you talking about, President Granger? How could I ever be unwilling to do that? I'll drink it."
As a result, Gail drank another bottle of alcohol. This time, the alcohol truly intoxicated him a little.
That kind of alcohol had a strong effect that was delayed. After drinking two bottles of alcohol, the man felt a little dizzy.
He did not dare to think about conspiring against Amos anymore. He randomly spun the bottle, thinking of letting the issues between Amos and him go.
However, Gail did not expect the bottle to land on Amos again.
He almost fainted. What kind of d*mn fate did he have with Amos?!
Amos still chose to do a dare. This time, Gail wanted to show his goodwill to Amos, so he said casually, "President Granger, let's do something that makes you happy!"
