Chapter 368


    Her heart ached, but Thea still put on a faint smile.


    "Yes, you''re right. We''re just friends! I seemed to have thought too much."


    The two of them smiled at each other, but both of them could feel their hearts aching.


    At this moment, Harley''s phone started ringing. He immediately came up with an excuse, "Well, I still


    have some other businesses to attend to. I''ll leave first!"


    "Okay. Go ahead! I''m leaving too!"


    The two waved at each other and said, "See you again."


    However, everyone knew that they would not see each other again. Even if they met each other, they


    would be like strangers.


    When they turned around, tears flooded their eyes.


    After returning to Clearwater Bay, Amos went to his study room alone.


    As soon as he closed the door, he called Clint.


    "Get someone to keep an eye on Steven. The moment they take action, get someone to arrest him


    immediately."


    Clint was stunned, "Mr. Granger, didn''t you say that you wanted to observe them slowly?" "We''re not


    doing that anymore! I suspect that he has other intentions," Amos'' gaze was a little cold. Steven was


    already plotting against his woman. What else was there to observe?


    Clint hesitated, "But... we have been nning this for a long time. Besides, many people in the


    interests for the sake of setting you upst time. As long as we hold on for a little while longer..."


    "I''d rather give up a thousand chances than to let him slip away!"


    He could not give anyone another chance to hurt Eudora.


    Clint''s whole body froze, "Okay, I understand!"

    At this moment, Eudora pushed the door open and came in, "What are you talking about? It sounded


    scary!"


    Amos was stunned, "Nothing, I was just talking about chess," He skipped the topic with ease and


    beckoned Eudora toe over.


    Eudora walked over obediently and he pulled her over to sit on hisp.


    His broad chest immediately enveloped her into a hug. Eudora gradually became familiar with this


    feeling and did not move.


    "Are you alright?" Eudora asked him.


    "Yes! It''s just that seeing Tina being taken away made me afraid that you would leave me one day."


    Eudora was stunned, "Howe?" As soon as she said this, both of them were stunned. Even she did


    not know why she had blurted out this sentence.


    "Well... I mean, I''m already married to you, aren''t I?"


    However... they had yet to register their marriage. In that case, they were just considered two people


    who were living together illegally, right?


    Oh man!


    Eudora was in a dilemma and she did not know what to say.


    Amos was amused and he said, "I know, I believe you."


    He lowered his head and kissed her forehead, his movements ever so gentle.


    "Our minds are connected. I know your every thought."


    Eudora curved her lips. "Do you know what I''m thinking about now?"


    Amos was stunned when he heard Eudora''s stomach growling. He suddenly smiled and said, "I know.


    You''re hungry."


    Eudora was embarrassed and she looked at her growling tummy in a huff.


    It was obvious that she had wanted to keep him guessing, but her stomach was such a party-pooper.


    "Let''s get something to eat then!" Amos said with a smile.


    The two of them made their way downstairs together and Auntie Valerie greeted them. "Mr. Granger,


    Valiant East had just called and they said that they would like to invite you to thepany''s seasonal


    party."


    Eudora said with a sulky face.


    "No! Didn''t they drive Amos out? What do they want him to do there? Amos, you mustn''t go. It must be


    that evil Steven, trying to take the position from you again."


    There was no denying that Eudora was a smart little thing. ording to Clint, Steven really just wanted


    to steal his limelight this time.


    However, this light was not something that he could touch. After all, there was still Bethany!


    Amos smiled, "Of course I''ll go. Why not?"


    Eudora could tell that he was confident, so she did not say anything more.


    The party was just a small- scale seasonal gathering, so it was not very grand. The people invited were


    only some high-level personnel in thepany. Steven was here to steal the limelight, so it was not too


    big of an asion.


    Eudora also came long. She decided to keep a low profile. She only wore a white dress and did not


    even put on any jewelry.


    As soon as they arrived at the door, they saw Steven waiting outside. Just like a few days ago, he


    greeted Amos and Eudora as soon as they got off the car.


    Amos nodded perfunctorily and entered the hall. The banquet had yet to begin, and everyone was


    chatting with each other. However, when Amos arrived, many people took the initiative to greet him.


    They all missed him and hoped that he could return to thepany quickly.


    Amos pretended to not understand their words and breezed through the topics casually.


    At this moment, a waiter walked over and the tray in his hand seemed rather unstable. He almost


    spilled red wine all over Amos.


    Steven went over hurriedly to show his brotherly affection, but Eudora had already gone up and tilted


    the tray upright.


    "Be careful," She told the waiter.


    The waiter stood there with a confused look on his face. He did not know what to do now. This was not


    how it was supposed to go. Thinking of this, the waiter looked at Steven.


    Steven said grumpily, "Aren''t you going to continue with your work?"


    The waiter then left quickly.


    Steven remainedposed, but he refused to give up so easily. He hurriedly went up and talked to


    Amos.


    "Amos, are you okay? Fortunately, you are not hurt."


    Amos did not even look at him. He lowered his head and took Eudora''s hand, "Are you okay? Who told


    you to rush over here? What if you got hurt?"


    Eudora shook her head, "I''m fine!"


    The people next to her were all attracted by Eudora and praised her one after another.


    "Miss George is really awesome!"


    "Yes! Mr. Granger is so lucky."


    In the end, not a single person even looked at Steven. He had wanted to show his brotherly love, but


    even that ended up in vain.


    He had no choice but to silently follow behind Amos, waiting for the next chance.


    After apanying Amos through the whole hall, the group of people just now eventually dispersed as


    they were getting tired. Steven finally found an opportunity to speak.


    "Amos, I know that I was wrong in the past. Please don''t be angry. I''m apologizing to you right now. No


    one has contributed to the sess of Valiant East as much as you have. In the future, I will have to ask


    you about thepany''s affairs."


    Amos did not say a word. Instead, it was Eudora who asked,


    "But, didn''t you dismiss Amos from thepany a while back? Your words seem to imply that you want


    him back at thepany now."


    Steven paused and said, "Well... Eudora, it was not something that I could control. It''s the director of


    thepany who makes the decision. Besides, I know that Aunt Bethany had her own thoughts too.


    However, you may rest assured. I will definitely find a way to speak to Aunt Bethany. Amos, if you have


    time now, why don''t we go to the stage and talk for a while?"


    He was hoping to achieve his goal with just a few good words.


    However, fortunately, this hope of his would never materialize.


    Before he could finish his words, Bethany had alreadye out from the back, displeasure written all


    over her face.


    Her heart tightened when she heard Steven, whom she was keen on supporting, blurting out such


    words.
