Eudora was packing up her things upstairs. When she was opening a box, Sugar Bun came in with his short legs.
âMommy! Tidy up!â
She stretched out her hand to caress his hair. âDo you know how to do it?â
He nodded and helped to put Eudoraâs clothes into the luggage one by one. She looked at him and it warmed her heart.
All the exhaustion in her body seemed to be gone!
Suddenly, she sneezed.
He looked nervously at her in an instant. âMommy! Sick!â
She rubbed her nose. Just as she was about to say no, she sneezed again.
She also felt that there was something amiss!
She had been busy all day and was dizzy. She thought that she was just fatigued, but now it seemed that she was going to get sick!
While she was thinking, Amos came in from the outside.
âEudora, are you having a cold?â
She was about to shake her head, but her hands were grabbed by a man and a boy respectively.
She was placed on the bed. The boy continued to pack up her clothes whereas the man got up and went to get the first aid kit.
âTime to measure your body temperature first!â
She waved her hand and rejected, âItâs too late. I have to go on a business trip. Itâs almost time to catch the train!â
Amos insisted. âNo excuses! Iâll ask Clint to cancel the trip!â
âAbsolutely not!â She stood up and said.
âThe companyâs employees have been busy with this project for more than half a year. I donât want to see any flaws in the closing caused by my incompetence! As a leader, I canât do it!â
He frowned. âDo you think that you can neglect your own body just because of it?â
Eudora tried to persuade him.
âAmos, do you want me to be a person who doesnât keep my promise? When you were a leader in the past, didnât you do the same thing? Since you can do it, why wonât you let me do it?â
He frowned and said, âIâm a man.â
She pursed her lips. âOh, are you looking down on women? If you behave in this way, I wonât like you!â
He felt helpless!
No matter what, he couldnât win an argument over her.
In the end, he could only pick up the first aid kit and the luggage, which had been packed up by Sugar Bun, and go downstairs.
âLetâs go downstairs!â
She heaved a sigh of relief. âThank you, darling!â
Amos rolled his eyes at her and said, âStop flattering!â
Eudora immediately shut up and followed him. The companyâs van was there to pick her up downstairs because there were many other colleagues.
While they were chatting in the van, they heard the driver open the door and drew in a breath of cold air.
Out of curiosity, everyone looked out of the van. They immediately recognized Amos, who was helping Eudora to carry the luggage, and Sugar Bun, who resembled his father strikingly. He was holding a small bag for her.
As for Eudora, she could only follow behind the two of them, helplessly looking at them.
The van was in an uproar at once!
âAmos treated us like a devil when he was in the company last time. Now, heâs helping his wife carry things like this!â
A girl said enviously, âIf I had such a good husband, why would I have to work? I could just serve him at home everyday!â
Someone immediately retorted, âWell, you donât understand it, do you? Miss George still goes to work because men like independent women. Especially great men like President Granger, it wonât be difficult for him to find any kind of woman. Only men who donât have any achievements like to date a girl who doesnât work, so that they could show off their ability in front of them!â
Someone nodded and said, âYouâre right, Miss George is a strong and resolute woman! If it wasnât for her, how could we have todayâs achievements when the incident happened to President Granger last time? Many people were not convinced at that time! They are convinced now, arenât they?â
âWhatâs more amazing is that Miss George is in charge of not only the Valiant East but also her own company! I heard that Tyly Company is doing very well now! She is awesome!â
âYes! In a word, Miss George and President Granger are absolutely a combination of strong forces. She is no ordinary weak woman!â
After that, they saw Eudora walking towards them behind Amos and Sugar Bun.
Everyoneâs eyes lit up at once. âGuess, how will they bid their farewells?â
The rest of them took it calmly and matter-of-factually. âHow else can they do it other than saying a simple goodbye?â
Before their voices died away, they saw Eudora step forward to hold Amosâ arm.
âHoney, Iâm leaving!â
She looked completely like a teenage girl, and was nowhere near the image of a strong and independent woman that the others had seen her as.
Everyone hid their faces in shame.
The contrast was too sharp!
Only the girl who was envious of Eudora just now smiled.
âYou guys donât know anything! A woman would only do the lovey-dovey stuff in front of her beloved man! Itâs obvious that you all are single!â
Everyone was speechless.
It pierced their hearts.
â¦
As for Eudora, after saying goodbye to Amos, she noticed that he was staring at their van.
Then, he walked straight over, opened the back door and sat down with the child in his arms!
She was nonplussed.
âYou donât have to see me off at the airport. Iâll go by myself!â
He pursed his lips. âIâm not seeing you off at the airport, Iâm going to Long City with you instead. Get in the car!â
She was so confused.
âThereâs really no need for that!â
âIf you donât get in the car, Iâll call Clint toâ¦â
âForget it, Iâll get in the car!â
Eudora didnât know what to say. Finally, she got in the car!
Originally, the people in the car were whispering, but now they had become quiet. They were wondering, âWhat is going on? Why is President Granger suddenly coming with us?â
After staring at each other for a while, everybody closed their eyes and pretended to sleep. Anyway, Amos was there, therefore they didnât dare to chit chat anymore. They might as well go to sleep.
She looked at them and remembered that Juju would come back the next day, hence she hurriedly pointed it out.
âNow that weâre all gone, what are we going to do if Juju returns? She will be sad!â
Amos directly said, âIâve already told Charlie to send Juju to Long City tomorrow!â
She was stunned.
âIs there a need to do so?â
However, before she could finish her words, she was pulled by Amos into his arms. âAlright, you should better rest first since youâre not feeling well.â
She was indeed a little uncomfortable due to the cold. However, his arms were so warm and wide, which made her instantly feel at ease.
Unconsciously, she really fell asleep!
All the other people in the van, who had been pretending to be asleep, were so scared that they did not dare to open their eyes. They were just thinking in their mind, âOh my god, President Granger is so cool!â
On the other hand, she had given them a bigger surprise. To them, she was such a strict businesswoman in the company, but she was so adorable and lovable when she was with Amos!
What was more, the moment when they leaned on each other made everyone feel that they were a perfect match.
They were just like a legendary couple!
âNow, it was proven that Miss Georgeâs long wait for President Granger was not in vain. They are such an enviable couple!â The other people in the van thought about them both.
