Chapter 807: Chapter 807 Dealing With The Guests

Outside the window, it began to drizzle. Luckily, there was always an umbrella in Eudora’s bag.

When she came out holding the umbrella, she saw Sawyer standing there without an umbrella. The rain had already soaked his clothes.

Eudora recalled that embarrassing incident from last time and stepped forward to share her umbrella.

“I’m sorry for calling you that last time. I’m sorry.”

Sawyer was stunned for a moment and then shook his head, “That’s not your problem. Many people think so too!”

Eudora pursed her lips. She wanted to ask how he had turned out like that, but felt that it would be too out of the blue.

After all, they had only met twice. She should not ask such a question.

“Are you waiting for someone?”

Sawyer nodded and said, “Yes!”

“Then, I’ll lend you this umbrella! My car is in front. Thank you for your help last time. Goodbye!”

After saying that, Eudora gave him the umbrella, turned around, and ran away.

When her figure disappeared from his sight, Sawyer lowered his head and looked at his fingers.

Although he had gloves on, he could still feel the warmth coming from her, burning his cold fingers.

…

At night, Eudora dreamt of Amos.

It was the first time she had dreamt of him after he had been gone for so long.

In her dream, he was still as gentle as before. Nothing serious was happening. The sunshine was just right, and they were lying on the sofa in front of the French window.

Amos was reading as she laid in his arms.

It was peaceful, as if they could just grow old like that.

After waking up, Eudora noticed that her face was already covered in tears.

After that, she could not fall asleep no matter how hard she tried. It was not until dawn that she fell asleep in a daze.

When she woke up again, Eudora suddenly fell ill.

After struggling for a while, she felt dizzy and could not stand up. Fortunately, the company’s situation had gradually stabilized recently, so she did not need to worry herself too much.

Eudora laid down at home for half a day. After taking the medicine, she felt much better. In the afternoon, she received a phone call from the secretary of Tyly Company, Amber.

“Miss George, that project is almost complete. We’ll have a celebration party this evening. Would you like to join us?”

It was the project that Amos had helped her obtain when he had still been around. In the blink of an eye, half a year had passed.

Previously, Samuel had been in charge of the project. Eudora thought about it for a long time before forcing herself to nod, “I’ll go. I’ll be ready in a while. I’ll go straight to the venue.”

“Okay! Also, the organizer has arranged for the celebration banquet to be quite the occasion today. So, you have to remember to wear a gown!”

After hanging up the phone, Eudora leaned on the bed for a while before getting up to get dressed.

When she went downstairs, she saw the sofa in her dreams yesterday. Her nose twitched, and she hurriedly turned her head away and adjusted her mood.

Cindy saw her coming down.

She quickly said, “Mrs. Granger, the Little master has fallen asleep. I’ve made some oatmeal for you. Please take some medicine before going out!”

Seeing that she did not have enough time, Eudora shook her head.

“Give me the medicine! You can have the oatmeal. I have something else to do.”

Cindy gave her the medicine and reminded her, She reminded Eudora, “Don’t forget to take it!”

…

The celebration banquet was as told by Amber. It was grand. The developer was actually quite capable. They probably wanted to make the event viral.

Many celebrities and big shots in the industry had been invited to the banquet.

Eudora had never been interested in these occasions, but things were different now. Many people came forward to greet her, and she had to talk a little with them.

However, now that she was alone, it was inevitable for her to drink as there was only so much she could say! Moreover, it was hard for her to refuse the offers.

Not far away, Elaine and Sawyer entered the venue.

Elaine walked in.

She said, “You’ve been in a good mood recently. When I used to ask you out for a meal, you would refuse using any excuse. Today, you’ve actually asked to come to the banquet with me?”

Sawyer stayed silent, but his gaze swept across the venue.

Finally, his sharp eyes fell on the thin figure in the very center of the venue.

Due to the cold weather, everyone had put on more layers. The last two times they met, he could not tell that Eudora was so thin.

Today, she was wearing a black gown which revealed her back. Her back was incredibly thin, bones protruding. Sawyer frowned and slightly clenched his fingers.

Elaine saw Eudora at the same time, “Hey, isn’t that Miss George? That’s right! This project was managed by her company. She’s really capable. She’s able to handle both Valiant East and Tyly Company. I used to think that I was capable, but now I feel ashamed after comparing myself to her.”

She talked for a long time, but Sawyer had no reaction. However, Elaine was used to it.

“Forget it. Talking to you is like talking to a brick wall. Why don’t you sit in the corner alone for a while? We can go back as soon as I am done!”

This time, Sawyer still did not move.

“What’s wrong?” Elaine asked curiously.

Sawyer clenched his fist and then loosened it. He pointed at the man standing next to Eudora who was speaking to her.

“I think that’s Charles Luther, the financial giant who has just come back from Wall Street. Didn’t you say you wanted to meet someone like that before? It’s a good opportunity.”

Elaine was stunned. “That man is Charles Luther? How do you know? The media has never revealed his picture before!!”

“You don’t believe me?” Sawyer asked lightly.

“Of course that’s not the case. I absolutely believe in everything you say.”

Everyone thought that Sawyer was a strange man. After all, he always covered himself tightly and rarely spoke.

However, only Elaine knew how powerful this person was. When the internal war had been going on in Valiant East, the platform had been involved, and they had not known what to do at all.

The public all thought that the platform and Elaine were amazing.

However, no one knew how difficult it was for a woman to be successful. Many pairs of eyes were constantly watching her. Once she made a wrong step, someone would want to replace her immediately.

At that time, she had been in a dilemma. One wrong step, and she could be fired.

At that crucial moment, Sawyer had appeared and easily solved her problem.

She was naturally grateful. In truth, in the previous month, Sawyer had already become her neighbor.

It was just that they had not been in contact with each other much.

Elaine snapped back from the memory and immediately smiled widely.

“Then, I’ll head over. Wait for me here.”

Sawyer nodded and fixed his gaze on the same thin figure. She clearly looked tired, but she was still dealing with the other guests.

Fortunately, Elaine went there and interrupted her. Then, he let out a sigh of relief.
