Outside the window, it began to drizzle. Luckily, there was always an umbrella in Eudora's bag. When she came out holding the umbrella, she saw Sawyer standing there without an umbrella. The rain had already soaked his clothes. Eudora recalled that embarrassing incident from last time and stepped forward to share her umbrella. "I'm sorry for calling you that last time. I'm sorry." Sawyer was stunned for a moment and then shook his head, "That's not your problem. Many people think so too!" Eudora pursed her lips. She wanted to ask how he had turned out like that, but felt that it would be too out of the blue. After all, they had only met twice. She should not ask such a question. "Are you waiting for someone?" Sawyer nodded and said, "Yes!" "Then, I'll lend you this umbrella! My car is in front. Thank you for your help last time. Goodbye!" After saying that, Eudora gave him the umbrella, turned around, and ran away. When
Elaine came with ulterior motives, so she easily joined in on the conversation. Eudora took advantage of the opportunity to slip away and she found a spot to sit down. Amber had not arrived yet, and Eudora felt a little uncomfortable. The medicine she had brought seemed to have been forgotten. She was afraid that she would not be able to endure until the commencement of this celebration banquet. Therefore, she called the waiter and said, "Please bring me a glass of water." After getting the water, she was about to put the medicine into her mouth. However, a big hand grabbed her wrist at that instant. "Are you crazy? Why are you taking medicine after drinking?" Eudora was stunned and looked suspiciously at the person who was grabbing her wrist. It was Sawyer. His name and appearance were unique, so she remembered him clearly. Usually, he had an indifferent look on his face, but today, he seemed to be a little angry. Eudora mumb
Women had always been regarded as the weaker existence. If Amos was here as the president of Valiant East, everyone would have fawned over him during such an occasion. It was because they all knew his capabilities. However, since it was Eudora who came, things were different. Outsiders did not know her capabilities. All they saw about was how weak and fragile she looked, and they thought that she had to be just a useless trophy wife. What's more, most men couldn't stand seeing a woman surpassing them and standing above them. Therefore, they all wanted to prove their capabilities. After being slapped by Eudora, coupled with the effects of alcohol, he naturally flew into a rage from embarrassment. The man grabbed Eudora's arm and said, "How dare you hit me? For Valiant East's sake, I had given you some face. Now, you think that you're already the president? If Valiant East really recognized you, you wouldn't just be the interim president!
When Elaine followed him out, she saw Sawyer carrying Eudora. Elaine was stunned and hurriedly came up to him, "What happened to her?" "Maybe she's drunk!" Elaine immediately became furious, "Those people really are too much! How can they treat a woman like this? Fortunately, we had gone just now. Otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable." As soon as Elaine finished speaking, she felt a cold aura emitting from Sawyer's body. In the blink of an eye, the chill disappeared. Elaine blinked her eyes. She must have made a mistake! In Sawyer's arms, Eudora was still muttering to herself. Elaine listened to her words carefully and instantly felt moved. "I've heard stories about Mr. Granger and Miss George. They were a loving couple! I envy them the most. I thought they would last forever, but life is so unexpected. I have her assistant's number. Why don't I ask him to send her home?" After saying that, Elaine got ready to grab her
The next morning, Eudora was awakened by her phone's ringtone. After answering the call, she heard Clint's anxious voice. "Madam, where are you?" Eudora was stunned for a moment. Only then did she realize that she was actually in an unfamiliar place. The decorations around her were solemn. She suddenly sat up, her head no longer feeling as heavy as it had been yesterday. Just as she was about to open her mouth, she saw a figure walking in. She was stunned and said to Clint on the other end of the call, "I'm fine. What's wrong? Did Sugar Bun miss me because I didn't go back?" "No, someone had already informed Cindy last night that you have something important to deal with and can't come back for the time being." "Therefore, Cindy took good care of the little master. You can be rest assured." Eudora breathed a sigh of relief, "Alright. I'll go back later." After hanging up the phone, she looked at the man who came in. He
Eudora stopped in her tracks, "What do you mean by got really unlucky?" "Just like what I've said, their companies have been run into problems. A few companies got investigated for various reasons by the authorities. One of them got the worst outcome of all. Their share prices have been going up and down like a rollercoaster since this morning. Some older shareholders even had a heart attack! That was why I wanted to ask you if something had happened last night." Eudora shook her head, "Nothing happened!" "That's good! It must have been a coincidence then! Interestingly, most of the companies affected were companies with bad reputations. Perhaps the heavens were punishing them." Eudora nodded, "Yes!" When she returned to her desk, Eudora sat alone in front of the computer and stared blankly for a while. Although she had been drunk last night, she had still been sober when everything had happened. She could easily remember some of the details. S
Elaine replied, "Oh? I'm not very sure either. When I came out just now, I heard her assistant calling her. I think it's about her daughter!" "Her daughter? What's wrong?" Elaine was surprised, "What's up with you? Don't you think that you're paying too much attention to Miss George? Don't tell me that you've taken a fancy to her!" Sawyer did not reply, looking as gloomy as before. Elaine rolled her eyes and said, "Every time I criticize you, you show me this reaction. I don't know what to do with you. I don't think a big deal happened. It seems that her daughter had some misunderstandings with her!" Sawyer's finger paused. To others, that might not be a big deal. However, Eudora loved her two children very much. She had suffered a lot when she had been pregnant with Juju and Sugar Bun. If Juju really had misunderstood her, how could she stand it? No wonder her eyes had been swollen when he had seen her! At the thought of that, Sawy
Eudora stayed a little unhappy for the whole day. After talking to Elaine, she went back to the company to deal with some work and only went home after that. Usually, Sugar Bun would welcome her at the door. However, there was no one at the door this time. Eudora quickened her pace and entered the house. Just as she stepped inside the house, she heard laughter coming from the living room. When she looked closer, she got stunned on the spot. On the carpet in the living room, Juju and Sugar Bun were playing with some building blocks. The two children were playing together just like before. The house was filled with joy. Eudora pinched herself and winced in pain. Only then did she realize that she was not dreaming. Juju had really come back. She wanted to go closer, but when she thought of how much Juju hated her, she stopped in her tracks. Perhaps, she should stay outside for a little longer and let the two children have a good time?
