After standing there in embarrassment for a while, Eudora slowly retreated to a corner and stood still. Occasionally, there were employees passing by her, but that day was the company's activity. They were not in the company, thus the employees turned a blind eye to her! She grew accustomed to it, hence she simply took a glass of wine and took two sips. It was eight o'clock in the evening. The assistant came over and said, "Miss George, it will soon be your turn for the speech!" She was confused. "The finance manager should announce the financial statements first, right? Now, they haven't said anything yet, and they're calling me up?" The assistant nodded. "That was what you said at first, but then, you handed the matters of the banquet over to Assistant Zuckerberg, didn't you? He arranged it in a way that you have to make the opening remarks. That's why you have to go up first!" Since the procedure was set up in such a way, Eudora did not refuse.
Amos was originally in the mood to watch people praise Eudora nonstop for her achievement. He didn't expect her to give him a warm embrace. He paused for a moment before reaching out to stroke her back. "What's going on?" The people beside them were all staring wide-mouthed at them. They whispered, "What's going on? Are President Granger and Miss George displaying their affection publicly? "But there is no such instruction in the planned procedure, is there?" Harley was the first to react. He whistled with his fingers. Then, the others on the scene finally came to their senses and clapped their hands together! In the applause, Eudora suddenly approached Amos' ear and murmured. "Darling, I don't want to be a strong woman. I just want to be your beloved wife!" His heart softened and he held her more tightly. "Well, it's up to you! However, we still have to carry out what we've been planning!" She looked up suspiciously, only to
Eudora looked suspiciously at Amos, who then laughed again. "Because my wife is so excellent, I want everybody in the world to know it!" She smiled. "Then I'll go! You'll come with me!" "Alright!" He replied with a grin. She couldn't help but touch her forehead when she heard the voice outside. "But, what about the people outside? They're making too much noise!" "Charlie!" With a single order from Amos, Charlie went out instantaneously. Three minutes later, it was quiet outside. She was perplexed. "So, it was easy to drive them away. Why didn't you do it earlier?" Amos smiled and said, "Because you haven't seen it yet. I want you to see it so that you can know how awesome you are!" Eudora was a little overwhelmed by the admiration she received! What should she do? Her husband was getting better in singing her praises. In preparation for the ceremony later, she led a regular life for two days so that she would be we
Amos asked suspiciously, "What's wrong? Are you not feeling well?" Eudora shook her head. "No, I just don't want to receive the award. Let's go! I'm hungry. I want to eat some delicious food!" He was smart. Even if she didn't tell him, he could still see through her emotion! He grabbed her hand. "I know what you're thinking, but do you really think that your husband is such a good-for-nothing layabout?" She was mystified. She felt that Amos was trying to say something to her. However, before she could ask, the emcee had already called her name! She froze while he held her hand and stood up. "Go! After all, you're excellent, so why wouldn't you go?" He pushed her forward, and she couldn't just shrink back at this moment, so she went up. However, she still saw a lot of disdainful faces when she stood on the stage and turned around. Those people were all staring at him with total contempt. Perhaps many men were thinking tha
Mr. Chilton flew into a rage and it just so happened that his wife interceded with the crowd for him. "That's not what you guys said just now..." He immediately vented all his anger on her by giving her a slap before sitting down angrily. She was slapped in public and all the vigor she displayed a moment ago was all gone! She couldn't remain collected any longer and hid her face in shame without saying a word. As for Amos, he had already stood up and walked towards the stage. For the previous winners of the awards, the presenters had not been so respectful. However, all the presenters on the scene gathered around him after he went up. They seemed to be obsequious to him. "Mr. Granger, please give an acceptance speech!" They were afraid that Amos didn't want to say anything, therefore the other people also badgered him into giving an acceptance speech. "Yes, Mr. Granger! I know you don't like to talk, but today we really need you to
New Year was around the corner. On New Year's Eve, Eudora noticed that it was snowing outside when she woke up in the morning. The snow got them in the mood of celebrating. Therefore, for her, the snow really came at the right time! The children liked the snow very much, just like their mother. Hence, the three of them were playing cheerfully outside their house. They only stopped once the ground in the garden was full of their footprints. Juju gave a rueful smile. "It would be great if Cola was still here! I would be able to draw some daffodils with it!" Cola was a dog raised by Eudora and Amos a long time ago, and it was very obedient. However, she was sent to someone else's home when Eudora was not feeling well during her second pregnancy. A few years had passed, and now, Cola should be older too. Thus, they didn't bring her back as they thought it would better stay there. Eudora stroked the top of Juju's head and said, "Cola should be
Humans were made in a way that they would get over their sadness if nobody asked them about it. However, if there was someone who was concerned about us, we might slump into dejection for a longer time. Juju was still a child after all. After hearing Amos' words, she couldn't help but burst into tears. "Daddy, Vincent is still so young, why did he have to die?" He let out a sigh and said, "It's my fault! If I had known his whereabouts and went to find him earlier, maybe he wouldn't have died! Then, you wouldn't have lost your friend!" "Daddy..." He swiped his daughter's hair away and allowed her tears to fall onto his legs. His daughter was still young, and there were still many things that she didn't understand yet. Parting forever with someone whom she cared about was probably the cruelest thing for her at her age. Amos didn't want to reason her with logic at the moment. To him, there was no need for his daughter to know about the
Since Eudora had stayed up all night, she slept in the next day. When she woke up, the sun was already shining through the gap of the window! The sun was out already? Eudora sat up and the door just happened to be opened by someone from outside. Just as she was about to speak, Amos spoke first and said, "Happy New Year!" Eudora suddenly came to a realization and replied, "Happy New Year!" The next second, a gift was placed in front of her eyes. "What's this?" "It's a New Year's gift! It's a reward for your hard work and for good luck!" Eudora laughed and said, "Do you think I'm a three-year-old kid? Only kids will want a New Year's gift, so why are you giving it to me?" Amos stroked her hair and said, "To me, you'll always be my baby!" Eudora had lost her words. Her husband was sweet-talking her again! Eudora stretched out her hand and took the gift and said, "What have you prepared for me?" Amos stopped her
