My Second Husband novel Chapter 848

The atmosphere in the meeting room turned awkward.

Truth be told, before Amos' return, they had not fully trusted Eudora.

All they cared about was their own benefits.

Previously, they had submitted to her because they could not find any problems with her. Other than that, she had also tricked them so many times, making them have no choice but to obey her.

Thus, they had reluctantly gone on like that.

Upon Amos' return, they seemed to have found another solution. They had been thinking of using the news of Amos affecting the company's situation as an excuse to stir a commotion. So, in order to shut them up, Eudora might give them some benefits.

After all, how could a man like Amos accept the fact that he had become a topic of conversation among the people?

However, they were all taught a lesson!

Not only did Amos not seem to mind at all, he even generously showed his face to them.

Eudora was even calmer. Faced with such a situation, she was still able to calmly point out their mistakes.

In that instant, everyone became quiet, not knowing what to say.

In the end, it was Nick who spoke first.

He said, "It's good that everything's fine. Everyone's just worried about the company, right? Since you, President Granger, have returned, when will you come back to the company?"

Eudora thought, "Nick really is a sly, old fox!"

On the surface, he was attempting to show some respect towards Amos, hoping to brush off that previous issue by just a sentence. However, Nick did not forget to curry a little favor at the end of his sentence.

That favor was the matter of asking Amos to come back.

Valiant East belonged to the Granger family, thus it was normal for Amos to return.

However, if Amos returned, Valiant East would become the talk of the town, and it would not be a good thing for both Amos and the company.

On the other hand, if Amos said that he would not be returning, that meant that he would be admitting in front of so many people that he relied on his wife to raise the family.

Such a matter would be hard for a fully-grown adult man to do!

Thinking of that, Eudora turned her head to look at Amos.

Just as she was about to speak, Amos spoke first, "I won't be returning to the company!"

Nick was taken aback for a moment. He tried to explain himself clearer.

He tried to explain the meaning behind his words clearer, "Miss George indeed has done a good job at managing the company, but she's only a woman after all. It must be very hard on her. As a woman, she should stay at home and..."

During such a situation, it was inappropriate for a wedded man to say that they would stay at home and let the wife work.

Eudora grew a little unhappy, "Nick, this concerns my own family. Besides, Amos..."

"It's fine!" Amos smiled faintly and looked at Nick with sharp eyes.

He said, "I know what you are trying to say, Nick. You just want to say that I'm useless, right? I'm useless for relying on my wife for a living, isn't that right?"

Nick waved his hand in false indignation and said, "President Granger, what do you mean by that? That's not what I meant! I j-just..."

"Enough!" Amos said coldly. "You don't have to explain yourself. Since you want an answer, I'll give you one. I enjoy staying at home, taking care of my child and managing the chores. I'm at ease for letting Eudora manage the company. Are there any other questions?"

Amos shut everyone in the room up with a single reply.

Most of them could not believe their ears. They had no clue what to say at all!

Nick was embarrassed and said, "Well, since President Granger has said so, we have no other objections. Let's just keep things the way they are now! I still have something else to do. I'll leave first!"

Did he think he could run away after stirring up some trouble?
