Chapter 709: Chapter 709 A Good Idea

The secretary swallowed her saliva hard and looked startled.

“Mr. Granger, I’ve told you that I won’t tell anyone. Please don’t make fun of me, okay?”

She heard everything just now. Miss George said that she couldn’t care less about her husband and just wanted to have fun! “If President Granger was really Miss George’s husband, why would Miss George say that?” The secretary thought.

Although she had never seen Amos before, many rumors about him had circulated in the community.

She heard many stories of his cruelty and his lethal treatments to those who disrespected him. No one could dare to say a word like Eudora would.

Amos was dumbfounded. He finally understood why Eudora was so worried.

Sure enough, the girl was a little silly!

Hearing the secretary’s reply, Eudora was stupefied as well.

Just then, she was actually sitting at a table near them, waiting for Amos to clarify to the secretary. But as a matter of fact, it was really difficult.

Eudora couldn’t help but to feel bitter in her heart. “My reputation might be ruined by my brainless mouth.” Eudora thought.

But what she didn’t know was that Amos was looking at her from the corner of his eyes.

Seeing her pulling a long face and sighing in despair, Amos showed a slight smile on his lips.

It had really been a long time since she had shown her adorable side. She looked so lively and full of vitality.

He really wanted to hold her in his arms and take a closer look…

In fact, he had done so as well.

He stood up, walked and knocked her table.

“Miss George, your secretary is here. Aren’t you going to say something?”

The corners of Eudora’s mouth twitched. She complained in a mute, “You said you would settle this by yourself!”

Amos curled his lips into a smile and stretched out his hand to pull her up.

“I did, but I need your cooperation!”

The secretary behind him covered her face, “You two…”

After Amos pulled Eudora over, he took out the marriage certificate directly from his pocket and placed it in front of the secretary.

“Take a look.”

The secretary looked at it with fear. There were two people in the photo, a handsome man and a beautiful woman. At first glance, she could tell that they were a perfect match…

What was even more frightening was that the two of them were before her.

“So both of you are…”

“Do you believe it now?”

The secretary nodded, “Yes, I do!” She heaved a sigh of relief, “Thank god! You’re not what I think, Miss George.”

The corners of Eudora’s mouth twitched, “What kind of person do you think I am?”

The secretary shook her head, “No, no. I’m going back to work! Enjoy your time!”

Watching the secretary leave, Eudora got up.

“I’m going back, too. I have another case at hand. After I deal with it, I’ll need to go back and see Sugar Bun!”

In the morning, she promised Sugar Bun that she would take a nap with him at noon. She would not break her promise.

President Granger, who was feeling content, unusually agreed with Eudora, “Then I’ll go back at noon too.”

Eudora had no more strength to argue with him and went straight back to the office.

As soon as she entered the office, she was greeted by countless pairs of judging eyes. Eudora was tongue-tied.

She forgot that there were a group of people in the office as well!

When she was thinking about how to explain it, all the people suddenly stood up and shouted at the same time.

“Mrs. Granger, nice to meet you!”

Eudora was shocked.

When she looked at the crowd again, her lovely secretary was standing at the side, smiling and looking at her with pride.

Eudora was astonished.

It wasn’t that big of a deal to make the matter public. Eudora’s lips curled up when she thought of how Amos had never been recognized in the past, looking with all the grievances written over his face.

“Now that everyone knows, then I won’t hide it anymore. However, although we are related to Valiant East and have a special relationship with Amos, shortcuts are still not allowed.”

“I hope that we can still do our job well and succeed with our own capabilities. After all, we have to be independent as well, we do not need to wait for a man to provide for us. Get it?” Eudora asked.

“Got it!” The crowd shouted in unison.

Eudora gained more respect from the crowd because of Eudora’s words.

It’s really rare to see a woman working hard despite having an outstanding husband. But Eudora herself was a very capable person!

However, what she didn’t know was that her statement had turned into a false rumour that circulated around the office.

At first, the statement was, “Do you know that Madam said that we should do our job well and shouldn’t wait for men to take care of us? Madam is amazing!”

Then it became, “Do you know that Madam said that we can’t wait for men to take care of us? We should be self-reliant and run our own business to support our family.”

Finally, it turned into a false rumour. It went like this, “Madam said that she would work hard to make money to look after President Granger! In my opinion, President Granger may soon go back home to take care of his children! The future will soon be in Madam’s hands!”

A group of people gossiped with relish, “Did Madam really say that? How could President Granger agree?”

“Why won’t he agree? Don’t you remember? He always adores his wife!”

Some new employees didn’t know such a piece of information, but the people in the Valiant East had seen Eudora countless times.

One of the stories was that President Granger abruptly decided to enter Greene City’s market for his wife but resulted in a failure which was spread throughout the company! Moreover, that was the only setback since Amos took over Valiant East.

Everyone said in agreement that he did it for love.

Someone sighed, Then, it’s really possible for that to happen! Although I don’t hate Madam, we are used to working with President Granger! How can we communicate with her if we have a sudden change like this?”

“That’s right! Women’s way of thinking is different from ours too!”

“Why are you thinking so much? I think it’s more necessary to think about the possibility of President Granger going to look after the children at home. Isn’t it amusing to imagine him doing that?

When the men thought about it, they couldn’t resist laughing.

“It seems to be a little funny.”

Clint frowned as he looked at the commotion. He said, “What’re they discussing during working hours? I’ll go and find the supervisor!”

However, Amos stopped Clint and asked, “Are they saying that I’m going home to look after my children?”

Clint cried out, “They are talking nonsense! How could it be possible? Madam would not say such a thing!”

“Does it have anything to do with Eudora?” Amos frowned, “Speak clearly!”

Clint said vaguely, “Well, the rumor had been circulating for some time. However, I didn’t know about it until today. It said that madam had mentioned during the meeting that women should make money to support themselves, their families and the men…”

Clint didn’t dare to finish the sentence. In fact, Eudora also said it on their wedding day.

Amos was not angry when he heard that. After that, he came to work as usual. All the while, Clint felt that Eudora was merely on a whim thus Amos played along with her.

It was impossible for a normal man to accept such a criticism. Let alone, Amos, who was extremely talented as a man.

However, in the next moment, Amos laughed.

“This seems to be a good idea.”

Clint was bewildered.
