Outside the door, Charlie looked at Eudora in confusion.
âMadam, are you giving up on Valiant East?â
Eudora shook her head. âOf course not! Why do you think theyâre turning their backs on Sebastian? Do you really think itâs because they were moved by that spaghetti dish or they were reminded of their purpose?â
Charlie was stunned, âIsnât that the case?â
âOf course not!â Clint looked at Charlie with a funny expression.
âJust now, I followed Mrs. Grangerâs instructions and sent them the financial reports.â
Charlie suddenly realized something, âItâs because their own benefits are affected, thatâs whyâ¦â
Eudora nodded, âTheyâre just a bunch of sly foxes. They will always put their own interests first. They only want to find someone to clean up the mess for the time being and stabilize the situation. Once everything has settled down, theyâll find a way to persuade me to fulfill the conditions that Sebastian offered them before. I wonât agree to that!â
âTherefore, youâre looking for a good opportunity to make them beg for your help!â
Eudora smiled.
She added, âBy the way, do you have any information regarding the person who had withdrawn the funds?â
She felt that the person was quite strange and the entire incident did not seem like an accident. After all, it was a huge sum of money. Eudora felt that she had met a savior If that was the case, then she would like to pay them a visit to express her gratitude.
Clint shook his head and said, âThe platform has a rule of not revealing clientsâ information. If they were a small client, it could be possible to obtain their information. However, they were a big client. The platform would not dare to offend such an important client.â
That was also true!
Eudora nodded reluctantly, âForget it! Even if the person doesnât want to admit it, I have an idea who it could be. Send me to Giant Star Group!â
Clint and Charlie quickly looked at each other, âDo you think itâs Mr. Clarke?â
Eudora was not quite sure herself, âEven if it wasnât him, I should go and have a talk with him.â
â¦
Last time, due to Amosâs incident, Eudora had promised Leslie that she would take over his organization.
Later, because of Amosâs sudden death and the recent events in the Valiant East Group, that matter had been shelved.
Fortunately, Leslie was kind enough to not push her at that moment. Now that the incident was resolved, it was time to talk about it!
Leslie was drinking tea in the living room as if he had been expecting her.
When he saw Eudora enter, he raised his head and smiled, âDid things go well today?â
Eudora nodded, âItâs been settled.â
âThatâs good! I knew that I wouldnât be wrong about Mr. Holtâs daughter. Youâre a capable person. I can be rest assured when I hand over the organization to you in the future.â
Eudora kept quiet.
So, Leslie continued, âWhatâs wrong? Are you still unwilling? You canât do that! You promised me back then! You canât go back on your word!â
Eudora pursed her lips and said, âI did promise you that! However, I need to know what your organization actually does?â
Leslie immediately smiled, âWhat do you think we do? Shouldnât the leader decide the organizationâs direction? If you can make the people here willingly submit to you, you can do whatever you want them to do! Just like how you were in Greene City, right?â
Eudora had been hiding all this time. She had been trying to run away from her responsibilities.
After being reminded by Leslie, she felt enlightened.
He was right. She should be in charge of her own future. Why was she trying to run away?
However, she had Tyly Company and Valiant East in her hands. She was indeed a little exhausted!
Eudora was deep in thought Leslie spoke again, âIf you really donât want to take over, I can still help you out for a few years. Just find a successor for me!â
Eudora was taken aback, âWhat do you mean by that?â
âJuju!â Leslie said, âThat girl can be evil and righteous at the same time. Furthermore, sheâs incredibly quick-witted! I think sheâs more suitable for this position than you.â
Eudora immediately shook her head, âThat wonât do. Juju is still so young. I wonât allow her to come into contact with matters like this!â
Leslie became unhappy, âMatters like what? We havenât done anything bad in recent years. Iâve also mentioned that the direction of the organization depends on the person-in-charge. If she takes over, I will help you take good care of her. In the future, itâll only be natural for the organization to be handed over to her!â
Eudora was still hesitant, âI donât want her to get involved. Itâll be too much for her.â
Leslie sighed, âThatâs just my suggestion. Go back and think about it!â
Eudora nodded.
Just as she was about to leave, she recalled the withdrawal and hurriedly said, âThank you for your help today, Mr. Clarke. Your timely withdrawal helped us out.â
Leslie looked puzzled, âWhat withdrawal?â
âThe withdrawal from the crowdfunding for the charity project that Sebastian had organized in the name of Valiant East!â
âWell, I didnât invest in that! Do you really think so little of me? I knew that he was going against you, so why would I invest in him? Not only did I not invest, I stopped everyone under me from investing too.â
After finishing his words, Leslie looked at Eudora with a proud expression, as if he was waiting for her to praise him.
Eudora nodded speechlessly, âThank you!â
After going out, Eudora said to Charlie, âAlthough the platform doesnât want to disclose anything, try secretly investigating who that person is.â
âYes!â Charlie replied.
â¦
After a few days of hard work, Eudora could finally relax.
By the time she returned to the mountains, it was already late in the afternoon.
Juju and Sugar Bun brought Gordon to the hillside to look around, like baby birds waiting for their parents to return.
Eudoraâs jumbled up thoughts along the way instantly dissipated upon seeing that scene.
She hurried forward to pick up Sugar Bun and then kissed Juju.
âWhy are you guys waiting for me here?â
Juju said with a smile, âGrandpa brought us here! He asked why you werenât at home and said it wasnât fun at all. So, we came here to wait for you.â
Eudoraâs heart warmed, âThank you.â
Gordon immediately turned his head away awkwardly, âWhy are you thanking me for this? I was merely waiting for my daughter. If youâre gone, who will help me look for my daughter?â
Eudora laughed, âOkay, I know. I will help look for your daughter, okay?â
âThatâs more like it!â Gordon laughed, âLetâs go home.â
Juju immediately followed behind Gordon and danced around like a cheerful butterfly.
Juju was usually a very serious child, but after spending time with Gordon recently, she was starting to act more like a child.
At this period of time, if she were to send Juju to the organizationâ¦
Eudora was still reluctant to do so.
