Chapter 649: Chapter 649 A Heart To Heart Talk

Fabian was talking to his assistant on the phone.

“The lawyer for Callum’s case has proposed for a bail. He will be bailed out soon. By then, he should be able to attend your wedding!”

“That’s good!” Fabian nodded. “Callum has been loyal to me for so many years, I can’t let him stay in there for too long! By the way, what happened to Charlie after he was bailed?”

The assistant fell silent for a moment. “We have been investigating, but we haven’t found anything. Amos seemed to have left him alone after bailing him out! I guess he’s in hiding to avoid trouble at the moment.”

Fabian frowned and seemed to have something to say, but he heard Malcom’s voice from downstairs.

“You brat, why aren’t you coming down yet?”

Fabian was about to continue, but was interrupted by Malcom’s calling. Instead, he said casually, “Don’t take it lightly. Amos is not easy to deal with.”

After that, Fabian hung up and came out of the room.

“Mr. Nolan, what are you doing?”

“What am I doing? I should be the one asking you that question! Eudora is here to view the wedding arrangement. Why did you wander alone to make a phone call? Is that acceptable? Fortunately, Eudora is sporting enough not to be angry with you!”

Fabian hurried downstairs and walked over to Eudora. “How is it? Is there anything you want to change?”

“No!” Eudora shook her head. “You’ve arranged it perfectly.”

Fabian’s eyes lit up. “As long as you like it!”

They chatted awkwardly for a while, then Eudora said, “It’s getting late. I’ll go back first!”

Malcom made arrangements immediately. “Fabian, send Eudora home quick.”

“It’s alright!” Eudora replied. “I drove here myself. If he sends me back, won’t I need to send him back? It’s too troublesome! I can go back myself!”

Fabian shook his head. “It’s okay. I’ll send you home! Don’t refuse my offer. I seldom do this for girls.”

Malcom had a proud look on his face. “You don’t have to be so polite, Eudora. Anyway, this brat will only annoy me if he’s at home. Get the driver to follow after you guys. After sending you back, the driver will pick him up again!”

Since Malcom had already said that, Eudora couldn’t reject any further and had no choice but to leave with Fabian.

Fabian volunteered to drive when he noticed that Eudora looked a little exhausted.

Eudora decided to close her eyes and rest. While she was in a daze, she suddenly felt something on her neck.

Eudora suddenly opened her eyes wide and Fabian retracted his hand hurriedly. At that moment, he panicked a little.

There was a cooling sensation on her neck. Eudora lowered her head and saw that it was a jade pendant. The pendant was translucent and looked like a piece of antique.

“It belongs to my mother. She gave it to me before she passed away and told me to give it to my future wife. So, I’m giving it to you! You can give it to our children in the future.”

For some reasons, Eudora felt immense pressure. “Isn’t this too valuable? I’m afraid that I’ll lose it!”

“No!” Fabian was satisfied with Eudora wearing it. “This pendant suits you very well!”

After saying that, he inadvertently moved closer and kissed Eudora’s forehead before she could even react.

Eudora stiffened. She subconsciously wanted to open the door and run out from the car, but Fabian had already grasped the car door’s handle.

“I know you still have him in your heart, but it doesn’t matter. In the future, when we are together, I believe that your heart will be mine one day! Eudora, I look forward to our life together. Good night!”

After that, he reached out to open the door and got off her car.

After a moment, Fabian and his car disappeared from Eudora’s sight. It was only then did Eudora realize that she was already home.

She tried to calm herself down. Eudora got out of the passenger seat and was about to enter the driver’s seat.

However, as soon as she opened the door, someone stopped her.

“Miss George, can we have a chat?”

Eudora was taken aback. The person in front of her was Clint. He didn’t seem like he had just left Amos’s house. Obviously, he had been waiting for her here the entire time!

Eudora pursed her lips. “I don’t think we have anything to talk about!”

“How so?” Clint said. “Miss George, didn’t you see the news? Although you are very hostile towards President Granger now, President Granger’s feelings for you have never wavered! I’ve watched you and President Granger together since the beginning. I don’t believe that there is no affection between you and President Granger.”

“So what? Since you’ve been watching us all the way, then you should have known the reason behind our breakup!”

“I can see that. I can see that President Granger had been chasing after you till the point that he had lost himself. And yet, he had never gotten a single bit of care from you, Miss George.”

Eudora chuckled. “You’re his man, of course you would say things like this.”

“Indeed, I have been with President Granger for a long time, but I’ve also treated you with respect. There’s no need for me to lie to you. When Mr. Holt passed away, who did you think used the power to gather half of Greene City people to attend the Holt family’s funeral? It was President Granger. Because of this, he still owes TEM Company a few years’ worth of bonus!”

Eudora was stunned. “Wasn’t that because Uncle Nolan made a call?”

“Miss George, haven’t you always been smart? So why are you making bad judgement when it comes to matters related to President Granger? At that time, the Nolan family was in a mess. Even if Malcom had made the call, do you really think anyone would have attended?”

“As for your company’s project this time, you must have thought that Fabian had helped you, right? Did you know that the Nolan family’s project was near us? They knew it well that the land has issues yet they forced David to take it under conceit. If we didn’t bear the responsibility, then you guys would have been the ones who would suffer!”

“It was President Granger who offered to withdraw TEM Company from Greene City in exchange for the Nolan family to not pursue this matter. In this matter, Fabian was the one who killed two birds with one stone! He managed to hold you and President Granger in his grasps!”

“It was Amos?” Eudora was flabbergasted. “But didn’t he say that he wanted to think about it again in front of me that day?”

“That was because he realized that there was something wrong with the project, so he went back to investigate! Because he withdrew from Greene City, he had to endure punishment by whip. He had an infection on his back for a few days but still refused to treat the wound. In the end, when you invited him over for a meal, that was when he agreed to get treatment. Who would have thought that you would say such heartless words? When President Granger returned, he instructed me to be wary of your lawyer’s letter…”

Eudora pursed her lips. “But he bailed Charlie, right? Charlie killed my father! Am I wrong for asking him not to bail Charlie?”

“How would Charlie kill Mr. Holt? What you’ve witnessed may not be true. What’s more, Charlie was being bailed out because…”

Clint paused when he mentioned that. Charlie’s case was a top secret. He should not reveal it for the time being.

“In short, you’ve misunderstood President Granger!”
