Naomi didn't dare to stay outside for too long since she was afraid that Amos would find out about her actions. She returned home after chatting with Nelson for a short while.
As soon as she walked in the door, she felt that there was something amiss with the atmosphere inside.
Her heart skipped a beat. She thought her parents found out that she had sneaked out to meet Nelson. Just as she was thinking of an excuse, Eudora spoke.
Just as she was thinking of an excuse, Eudora spoke, "Come on, Cindy!"
Only then did Naomi see that Cindy was standing opposite to Eudora. She hadn't noticed Cindy at first because she was blocked by the plants.
"Phew! They're not talking about me," Naomi thought to herself. She heaved a sigh of relief and went upstairs hurriedly.
Cindy wasn't in a good mood, "Mrs. Granger, I know that you're doing all this for me, but I'm really exhausted. I want to leave Rosaville City and go to a quiet place to be alone for some time."
Eudora's brows knitted, "I understand your feelings, but even if you want to spend some time alone, you don't have to leave Clearwater Bay!"
Cindy had grown up in the Granger family's training base ever since she was a child. The children who had been selected by the Granger family were mostly orphans.
They all didn't have a family!
Eudora would definitely not agree to let her leave just like that.
"How about this?" Eudora suggested.
"I know you are feeling down. It's all my fault as I was too rash. A few days ago, Amos received a free honeymoon vacation package after he bought me something. I'm not planning to go as I'm not feeling well, and there are some matters in the family that I have to tend to. Here, you can have it. Go for a vacation as long as you want, you don't have to worry about anything here, I'll ask someone to fill in for you for the time being. Just come back when you feel better. How does that sound?"
Cindy was flattered, "How could I accept this? Mrs. Granger, I don't deserve this!"
Eudora nodded, "You deserve this! You might not be as important in other people's eyes, but to me, you are a part of our family. Seeing you upset
makes me sad too. So, just accept this, okay?"
Cindy finally nodded and said, "Okay! I will try my best to cheer myself up and come back as soon as possible."
"There's no need to rush. Things will be just fine at home!"
After Cindy went back to her room to rest, Eudora turned around and went back to her own room as well.
Amos had already taken a shower. He was lying on the bed, reading a book.
When he saw Eudora come in, he said casually, "Your pajamas and hot water are all ready. Go and take a nice bath now, and then you can lie on this cozy and warm bed."
Eudora was a little disheartened, "It seems that I have messed things up. Cindy was already in a bad mood, and now she is feeling even worse!"
Eudora buried her head under the blanket. She sounded really unhappy.
"Will Cindy really leave us?"
Amos took her into his arms, "No she won't, don't worry about that! Besides, stop putting yourself down, you've done a great job!"
"But Cindy doesn't seem to like it! And the people in your company, will they blame me too?"
Amos shook his head, "No, they won't!"
"Really?"
"Yes, quit worrying! You'd better take a bath now, or do you need my help?"
Hearing that, Eudora got up immediately.
"No, I can do it by myself!"
She would be in deep trouble if she accepted his help!
After Eudora went into the bathroom, Amos called Clint.
"I've asked you to tell all the executives to just play along, right?"
Clint replied, "Yes! What's the matter? Is Miss Cindy really interested in one of them?"
