Chapter 403


    When Eudora heard his words, she rolled her eyes at Harley.


    "What''s the matter with you? Aren''t you wooing Thea? Why are you still thinking of other women?"


    Harley chuckled a little in embarrassment.


    Amos, who was next to Eudora, nced at Harley coldly, "What are youughing about?"


    Harley was stunned by his fierce tone.


    "Hey, don''t overreact, okay? I just chuckled to your wife, do you have to be this scary?"


    Eudora smiled at Amos. She could tell that he was being protective of her.


    "Forget about thedies! I''ll treat you guys to a meal, how about that?"


    "Noting!" Harley yelled in defiance.


    "Well, it''s up to you then! When the timees, I''ll invite Thea as well..."


    After that, she instantly let out a yawn. She felt really sleepy.


    Amos took notice and told Clint to drive more carefully.


    Harley looked at Eudora, who was leaning into Amos''s arms, begrudgingly and said, "Amos, aren''t you


    being a bit overbearing right now?"


    "Do you have a problem with that?" Amos said dismissively.


    "Do you think you should be showing your affection in front of two bachelors?" Harley was speechless.


    Amos nced at Clint, "Is it bad?"


    Clint nodded, "It does seem to be a little..."


    Finally, Harley had found a good friend. He was almost in tears as he hugged Clint. Amos, on the other


    hand, told him to pack it in.


    He then proceeded to take off his coat and covered Eudora with it.


    Harley and Clint were rendered silent.


    Only after Eudora and Juju were sent back home did Amos walk out and meet up with Clint and the


    others.


    Clint hade over not only to help them register their marriage but also to make a progress report as


    well.


    The three of them headed straight to the study. Clint spoke first.


    "President Granger, as we have predicted, Bethany had gone over to speak to Steven as soon as we


    disclosed the evidence. Although it seemed pretty calm recently, however, I''ve got some news from


    private sources. Apparently, Bethany has secretly contacted some senior directors. Steven hasn''t been


    idle as well. He''s been nning behind our backs. What are we going to do next?"


    "What should we do? Aren''t theypeting with each other? That must surely be beneficial to us. Let


    them fight it out first," Harley said bluntly. Clint''s thoughts on this matter, however, were different, "The


    votes that were cast by the board of directors would determine who the next head of the Valiant East


    From N?velDrama.Org.


    will be. Based on President Granger''s past experiences in Valiant East, he could consider paying


    several of these directors a visit. He''ll definitely stand out."


    There was no doubt about this.


    It had only been a few months since Steven had started to lead thepany. The group''s overall profit


    had not increased in the slightest as Steven had caused an incident that ruined thepany''s


    reputation. It took them a lot of effort to get it back on the right track. However, since the first half of the


    year was almost over, it was pretty difficult for them to start generating profits to mitigate the losses.


    Although the people in thepany did not say anything outright, they were undoubtedly filled with


    Meanwhile, Bethany had the Old Master''s will in her hands. However, she was still a woman after all


    and had no prior experience. Amos would be more preferable than her to take charge of Valiant East.


    That was what Clint thought. He turned his gaze back to Amos and asked.


    "What do you think?"


    Whatever Clint said was right, but Amos still shook his head.


    "Let''s talk about this another time. We''ll have to look into their situation first. I''ll be quite busy these few


    days, so if there are any decisions that needed to be made, go ahead of yourself. Unless it''s something


    big, don''t look for me."


    After that, Amos stood up, pushed the door open, and left.


    Harley and Clint looked at each other, speechless. They didn''t know what Amos was up to.


    However, Harley was not the kind of person who could hold himself back from questioning. If he didn''t


    understand something, he would try his hardest to figure it out.


    He got up hastily and followed Amos out. He saw him walking towards Eudora''s bedroom as he spoke


    to Auntie Valerie.


    "Have you prepared the desserts for this afternoon? She likes cakes."


    Harley looked on in confusion.


    He rubbed at his chest slowly, stepping back in sorrow.


    "Clint, my heart aches! I can''t believe that Amos has really be uxorious!"


    Clint merely looked at him nkly.


    Amos quickly made his way down the stairs. Meanwhile, Harley was leaning against the door, watching


    him fuss around with a disdainful look on his face.


    "Amos, you are no longer my domineering brother! Let''s break off this brotherhood," he proimed


    dramatically.


    Amos huffed a breath, "Whatever..." Harley choked back a gasp of outrage.


    As they were speaking, footsteps could be heard from the stairs. Eudora had just woken up. She


    looked at Harley, confused, "What''s the matter with you guys?"


    Harley rushed to Eudora in grief. "Eudora... Amos wants to break off his friendship with me..."


    Before Harley could even finish his words, Amos had rushed up to them from behind and pushed him


    aside.


    "Don''t get too close to Eudora!"


    Harley felt like discarded trash at this point.


    What was going on? These two were being so weird!


    While Amos held Eudora''s hand and walked her to have dessert, Harley whispered to Clint as he


    watched the couple, "Have you noticed that Amos has been acting strange recently? Don''t you think


    that he''s being too nice to Eudora?"


    Clint thought that Harley was lucky enough to have not seen them be more intimate with each other


    than he had.


    Clint shook his head, looking unsurprised, "Not really..."


    "Really? Why does it feel like she''s being guarded like a precious gem or something?"


    While they were talking, Amos hade back to them. "If you two have nothing else to do, you may


    leave now. It''s getting too noisy here, affecting our rest." "Alright, President Granger, I''m going back


    now," Clint went out of the room as soon as he said so.


    As he left, he pulled Harley along with him. Harley kept on looking back at the eating Eudora and


    became even more curious.


    "Eudora, I thought that you disliked durians."


    Eudora rolled her eyes at him, "So what? I like them now. Any problem?"


    Harley muttered, "My mother told me that only pregnant women would start having a strange taste for


    food!"


    As soon as he said that, a pin-drop silence filled the room. He raised his head hurriedly and looked at


    Amos. Noticing Amos''s calm andposed facade, Harley finally got his answer before Amos uttering


    a single word.


    "Eudora... Are you really pregnant?"


    Eudora merely ignored him. Harley wanted to say something else, but he was silenced by Amos''


    hostile re.


    "Do you guys need anything else?"


    "Alright, alright! We all know that you''re a loving couple! Now with a second pregnancy... I can''t believe


    that you value sex more than friendship!" Harley said bitterly.


    After that, Harley turned around and took Clint''s hand in his.


    "Let''s go then, Clint. From now on, you shall be my new brother!


    Clint looked at him confused. They were two grown men after all. Holding hands was a bit weird, wasn''t


    it?
