Valiant East.
After finishing some tasks, Amos leaned against the chair and closed his eyes to have a rest.
Clint pushed the door open and came in. Amos heard him and opened his eyes to say, "What's next..."
"I've pushed it back for three hours. Please take a break, you don't seem to look well." Clint said.
Amos nodded his head and said, "Call me later then."
As soon as Amos was done speaking, Harley Louis pushed the door open and came in. "Brother, are you free today? Didn't we say the other day that we're going to your place to try Sister- in- law's cooking?"
Clint was speechless. "Well, it seems like President Granger has no time to rest anymore."
Harley looked at Clint and asked in puzzlement, "Rest? Isn't it still working hours?" He turned his head to see Amos' pale face, and was shocked by the sight of it.
"What's wrong? Brother, did your Second Uncle do anything to you again?" he asked.
"No!" Clint said in a hurry. Harley was a talkative person. On the other hand, Amos preferred to remain silent.
If Amos kept quiet, the conversation might end up being just between them both for the next three hours.
"President Granger didn't have a good rest last night!"
"Oh!" Harley breathed a sigh of relief, and said flirtatiously, "It seems like your nights have been quite exciting recently!"
Clint was speechless.
Amos rolled his eyes almost instinctively and said, "I'm not free these days, we'll talk about the meal again next time. You should go back now!"
"No way!" Harley was disappointed. "I've been very busy recently. It's not easy for me to visit you on my leisure time. Look at that attitude of yours, I just wanted to have a meal with you, it's not like I'm taking Sister-in-law away from you. It's just a meal!" Harley repeated.
Clint kept giving looks at Harley. Of all times, why did he have to mention about Eudora now?
Recently, the relationship between President Granger and Miss George had been rocky. Therefore, President Granger was very annoyed. How dare Harley mentioned about Eudora now!
Fortunately, Harley was sharp enough. He understood what was going on when he realized Clint was throwing a meaningful look at him.
"Are both of you quarreling because of that woman?" He asked.
Upon hearing this, Clint was speechless.
Harley confirmed his answer when he saw the both of them remained silent. "See, I knew it would be like this. It's impossible for a woman to accept their man being with another woman. Is Sister- in- law unhappy? Well, I think you could just buy a bag for her. Bet you haven't heard, but this is in fact the simplest way to make a woman be happy! If one bag doesn't work, get two!"
Harley said proudly, lifting his chin in confidence.
Clint doubted, "Are you sure it'll work?"
"Of course!" Harley nodded his head and said. "Just listen to my advice!"
Clint was speechless. He still found this method unreliable. Moreover, President Granger would probably not agree with this too.
Unexpectedly, Amos looked at them and said, "I'll give it a try."
Clint was speechless. However, he didn't understand anything about relationships. Therefore, he would just prepare for it as the president said.
"I'll get it prepared now!"
"Forget it." Amos looked at his wristwatch and stood up.
Upon seeing this, Harley's eyes lit up. "Are we going to have a meal now?"
Amos shook his head.
He said, "It's time for my other schedule. I'll go first."
Harley was speechless, how could he just leave him like that!
