My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 550
Eudora then turned around and walked into the shop.
The waiters immediately chased after the celebrities. Only a few people remained inside the shop.
Even though the female actresses had attracted a lot of people, there still weren't many people who were willing to enter the shop.
From the looks of it, even though the Hold Family's business was strong and powerful, they were still quite intimidating in the eyes of the ordinary citizens in Greene City.
Not even the presence of celebrities was enough to help with that.
Fabian, who was initially pleased with himself, gradually felt embarrassed.
He frowned and called his assistant.
"Let's invite a few male actors over too."
"Forget about it!" Eudora stopped him hurriedly. "Mr. Nolan, thank you. I appreciate your thoughts."
Fabian snapped his fingers and said, "A milkshake shop is not an easy shop to manage. What kind of shop do you plan to open next? The Nolan Group will help you with it."
The assistant behind him looked at Fabian in shock. It seemed that Mr. Nolan was putting in a lot of effort to strengthen their relationship with the Holts.
Had it been any other woman, she probably would have started jumping up and down from excitement.
However, Eudora did not give him the pleasure of that at all. "I'm sorry, but the only business I want to manage right now is this milkshake shop."
Fabian frowned as he glanced at the buckets of ingredients that had been prepared inside. He said generously, "Every employee of the Nolan Group will have a cup of milkshake in the afternoon! Ask them to get someone over to collect them now!"
Eudora looked at Fabian speechlessly. She used to think that he was a mature and respectable man, but now, it seemed like he was quite childish.
"Mr. Nolan, there is really no need for that. It will only be a temporary way to solve my problems. I couldn't possibly rely on you for my entire life, could I? If you wish for my business to go on smoothly, please take your men and leave as soon as possible. Don't affect my business here..."
Fabian raised his eyebrows and asked. "Why not?"
Eudora was at a loss for words.
"I admit that I have used you once or twice. Perhaps I have caused a misunderstanding between us as a result, so I will apologize to you for that. But you should know that we have only seen each other as little as three times. Don't you think that your feelings are out of place?"
Fabian's expression immediately fell.
Even though he looked like someone who was easy to get along with, in actuality, he had a really bad temper. Everyone at home was terrified of him.
This was the first time he had taken the initiative to help someone else, yet he was given the cold shoulder instead.
The bodyguards mourned for Eudora silently. As expected, Fabian sneered and left the shop.
Eudora heaved a sigh of relief once he left.
When Fabian went outside and saw the noisy crowd and the two actresses, anger surged inside him immediately.
However, the two actresses did not seem to have noticed his foul mood. They ran over to greet Fabian.
Fabian shoved them aside and they both fell to the ground. When the crowd saw how violent Fabian was towards the actresses, they dared not get close to the shop. They all ended up leaving hastily. Fabian had started working with his father ever since he was seven. He had never suffered such a humiliating defeat in his life. The bodyguards were afraid that he would get someone to wreck the shop. This would not be good for their reputation!
One of the bodyguards could not help but walk up to comfort him. "Mr. Nolan, some people just don't know what's good for them. This is not your problem. Besides, there are some underlying problems in this shop as well. Who in Greene City doesn't know what kind of a store this place used to be? The boss is still the same. Naturally, they wouldn't dare to come and buy anything from here. Had it been anyone else they might not be able to do better than you."
Fabian's mood became somewhat better. In truth, he had always been confident in pursuing Eudora. However, he did not expect himself to be treated this way by her.
He was angry.
This was a feeling that he had not felt in years.
When the bodyguard realized that he was in a good mood, he said hurriedly, "Mr. Nolan, shall I apologize to Miss George on your behalf?"
"There's no need for that!" Fabian replied, "Let her calm down first!"
The bodyguard nodded. As expected, Mr. Nolan was a man who would look at the bigger picture. He knew that he must not pamper women too much!
At this moment, another group of people arrived. Moreover, this group of people was much larger than the crowd before.
When the bodyguard saw this, he smiled.
"Mr. Nolan, it seems you are still too concerned about Miss George. Have you arranged for another group of people to come over here?"
Fabian frowned. "No, I didn't."
The bodyguard was startled. Apart from Mr. Nolan, who else had such a great influence in Greene City?
Those people gradually approached them. The bodyguard's eyes widened. "Aren't they... cops?"
He instinctively tried to gesture for Fabian to leave. Fabian did not move, and he merely glanced at the bodyguard coldly.
"Come on, let's head back." After getting rid of Fabian, Eudora was discussing new strategies with the female employees in the shop. She thought of asking them to work a bit harder by having them promote the shop outside.
They should try their best to show their hospitality to the customers. Perhaps this would be beneficial for the store in the long run.
To her surprise, Leslie barged in from outside before she could finish her words.
"Miss Eudora, the cops are here!" He cried out, and he was about to run away.
Eudora frowned. "So what? We are a legal business. What should we be afraid of?"
Leslie's fear of cops had become a habit because of his past. He had done so many bad things that he was naturally afraid of the cops whenever he saw them. Even though they have not done anything to hurt people for a long time, he was still jumpy about it.
Leslie stomped the floor in embarrassment.
"You're right!"
Raymond, who wad deeds? Look, the police are still coming after us even though we had opened a milk tea shop next to him, snorted, "Mr. Clarke, for people like us, what could we do even if we do google shop."
A few of the staff in the shop immediately agreed with Raymond.
Most of them were male workers. They were originally quite satisfied with their previous jobs.
They weren't doing something that offensive and illegal, and their paychecks were pretty huge too.
At first, they did not think that restructuring the store into a milkshake shop would affect them much. However, they had yet to sell a single cup of milkshake since their opening in the morning. Naturally, some of them could not stand it anymore.
If things were to go on like this, their wages would definitely not be able to measure up to their previous pay.
"Assistant Raymond is right. In fact, it would be better for us to open a shop like the one we had in the past...'
Eudora frowned as she turned around to look at them.
"All of you, stay put. I'll go out and take a look."
The moment Eudora went out of the door, she bumped into Fabian, who had just returned. Fabian grabbed her hands and said, "Hurry, leave with me..."
Eudora immediately shook him off. "I'm running a fair and legal business. Why should I leave?"
Fabian frowned. "Now is not the time to be stubborn. From the looks of it, you might have been reported by other people..."
"So what? What's done is done, I'll still have to face it eventually! Instead of running away, it would be better to face it bravely." Fabian's mouth twitched. All of a sudden, he felt that his actions were rather laughable in front of Eudora.
