Chapter 624: Chapter 624 Something Has Happened

“Samuel, what are you trying to say? Are you calling me a puppet?”

Samuel snickered, “Are you not aware of that? You don’t need any further explanation from me, do you?”

“Samuel Chilton!” Leslie gritted his teeth.

Seeing that the two of them were about to fight, Eudora hurriedly shouted, “Enough!”

Leslie sat down and glared at Samuel angrily.

“You shouldn’t think that we are here to make trouble. You can take a look at the current situation of the Nolan family.”

Samuel was not convinced and scoffed, “That has nothing to do with us. We aren’t part of the Nolan family anyways.”

“You…” Leslie was infuriated, “I already knew that you were a bad-tempered person. When Mr. Holt was alive, he would always ask me to tolerate your temper. After so many years, I thought that you had changed. I never expected that you have gotten even worse!”

Samuel glared at Leslie and warned, “Don’t go too far.”

“That’s enough!” Eudora interrupted the two again, “If there’s nothing else, we’ll take our leave first!”

Samuel smiled. See, he was right? Eudora was just a clueless and naive girl. When she saw him standing his ground, she decided to give up.

Just then, Eudora turned and looked at Samuel again.

“Uncle Chilton, I’ll prove to you that my decision is beneficial to the future of the Holt family! When the time comes, I hope you can cooperate with me!”

Samuel was stunned. Eudora’s firm gaze from just now made his determination falter.

After Eudora and the others left, Samuel called his assistant and ordered, “Go and investigate the Nolan family. What’s going on recently?”

…

After Eudora left, Leslie huffed reluctantly, “Miss, you shouldn’t have interrupted me just now. That old b*stard Samuel just needs to be put in his place. Let me give him a scolding, then everything will be okay!”

Eudora shook her head and explained, “Uncle Leon, I know that you just wanted to help me. However, you should be able to see that Uncle Chilton’s opinion of me isn’t just limited to this. He hasn’t actually accepted the fact that I’m taking over the Holt family. Therefore, it’s better to take advantage of this opportunity to convince him reasonably, and let him know that I wasn’t deliberately causing trouble for him.”

The more that Leslie got to know Eudora, the more he admired this seemingly weak woman.

“You’re right. I was being rash. What are you planning to do? I will cooperate with you.”

Eudora paused for a moment and said, “Uncle Chilton doesn’t accept me because he feels that I don’t have the ability to help the Holt family progress. I think that he doesn’t have much trust in the development and revenue of the milk tea shop. Therefore, I need your cooperation to develop this milk tea shop for the time being, Uncle Leon. It’s best if we can make it known all over Greene City.”

Leslie nodded and agreed, “Okay, Miss George, as long as you give me an order, all the stores under my command will definitely listen to you!”

“Thank you, Uncle Leon!” Eudora said with a smile..

All the clubs under Leslie were already going to be converted into milk tea chain stores. Moreover, their businesses were already booming. However, it would still be a challenge to improve them in the shortest time possible.

For a moment, Eudora couldn’t think of any suitable method to do so.

Since Juju was home alone, Eudora hurried home to see Juju. When she reached the Holt family villa, she saw a familiar figure.

Strictly speaking, it wasn’t a single person, but three familiar figures.

Amos was holding Sugar Bun in one arm and Juju’s hand in the other. The family of three were taking a walk outside. During the daytime, many people would be walking around the area, so all the women’s eyes were plastered on Amos’ figure.

“Gosh, I used to think that men with abstinence were the most handsome! It turns out that men with children are the most handsome!”

“Take a closer look. If he wasn’t bringing a child with him, he’ll definitely be someone with abstinence. Moreover, he’d be someone who is really cold.”

“But he looks even more attractive with his children!”

“He’s smiling, do you see that? He’s smiling, aww! I don’t even know who the child’s mother is, but whoever she is, she must’ve saved the entire universe or something!”

Several women were chatting about Amos. Eudora fell speechless as she looked at them.

While she was in a daze, Juju spotted Eudora and trotted towards her.

“Mommy, you’re back?”

Hearing that, the women immediately focused their attention on Eudora.

Their eyes were full of judgmental gazes.

Eudora ignored their gazes and held Juju’s hand. She chuckled, “Sorry, Mommy had something to do this morning. That’s why I didn’t stay with you at home…”

Juju shook her head and smiled, “It’s okay. I have Daddy and Sugar Bun to accompany me.”

Juju had been relatively sensitive since she was a child. Naturally, she could see that those women were a little unfriendly towards Eudora. She rolled her eyes at them and suddenly exclaimed in shock.

“Mommy, what’s wrong with your hand?”

Eudora was taken aback and looked down at her hand. She was just about to say, “I’m fine,” but the man who was standing gracefully with the child in his arms rushed over like a bolt of lightning.

He grabbed Eudora’s hand and asked anxiously, “Did the wound reopen? How could you be so careless? I’ll immediately call Doctor Leon over right now.”

Amos repeatedly asked her questions as he was worried, his full attention focused on her. The women beside them pursed their lips in annoyance and left silently.

Juju was smart. She took Sugar Bun from Amos’s arms and clumsily put him into the stroller, chiming, “Come, Sugar Bun. Your big sister is taking you to look at some fish!”

Eudora hurriedly said, “Juju, you can’t push him.”

“It doesn’t matter. Uncle Wesley is in front.”

Eudora fell silent.

When Juju left, Eudora came back to her senses and withdrew her hand, saying, “I’m fine. Juju was just mistaken.”

Amos stared at his empty palms and nodded in disappointment, “Oh!”

Both of them exchanged glances without saying anything. Finally, it was Eudora who spoke first, “If there’s nothing else, I’ll bring Juju back with me!”

“Okay,” Amos responded once again.

Once Eudora left, he kicked the stone under his feet irritably.

Although he had been telling himself not to act rashly for the time being until Charlie’s case was solved, he felt that he was about to lose control of himself.

He could only watch from afar as she got injured and was trapped in a dilemma.

He couldn’t even help to apply medicine to her wounds. In the past, Tyler had been the biggest obstacle between them, so there was nothing he could do about it. But now, there was supposed to be no obstacles between them…

When he heard Juju’s exclamation just now, he was scared out of his wits. His first reaction at that time had nothing to do with whatever warnings he gave himself. He didn’t want to care about anything else. He just wanted to take her back and protect her forever.

However, in the end, his rationality had the better control over him. Amos took a deep breath.

Just then, his phone rang. It was from Harley.

“Amos, bad news. Something has happened!”
