My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 551
Eudora had already started walking towards the police. She stood in front of them and asked, "Hello there, may I know if there's a problem with what we are doing?"
When they saw Eudora, they smiled and said, "Hm? Couldn't we cops have a cup of milkshake after getting off work?"
Everyone who was following behind Eudora was stunned.
What was happening? Weren't the police here to cause trouble? Why were they claiming to be here to have milkshakes?
Even Eudora was somewhat dumbfounded. "You guys..."
The cops smiled, and they pointed to a direction behind her. Someone in the crowd had walked out with a bunch of flowers. The bouquet was so huge that it blocked the person's face.
Before Eudora could get a clear view, the man already handed the flowers to Eudora.
"Eudora! Congratulations on the opening of your business!"
Only then did Eudora see the face of that man clearly. Harley?
Seeing that she did not reply, Harley smiled, "Eudora, how could you do this? How could you come to Greene City to open a shop all by yourself? You didn't even let us know. Had Amos not informed me and told me to come, I wouldn't know for how long are you going to hide this from us!"
Amos?
Eudora's brows furrowed, and she calmed down gradually.
Apart from Amos, who else could have called Harley over? He even called his colleagues to come over.
Thea, who had been standing behind Harley, peeked out and looked at Eudora.
"Eudora! Are you not happy that we're here?"
After that, Tina and Christopher appeared beside her. Finally, she saw Amos standing amongst the crowd silently.
His gaze was deep, and Eudora's heart skipped a beat. She looked away hurriedly.
"Of course not! Come on in, all of you."
Harley was the first to walk into the shop. Even though he was not wearing his police uniform, he was the first to speak. Everyone could tell that his status must be special.
Several of the female staff subconsciously took a step back when they saw him entering the shop.
Harley noticed that all of them looked as though they had seen a ghost, and he could not help but frown.
"Are you kidding me? I'm so handsome and charming. Do I look like a ghost to you?"
Thea coughed subtly behind him. Harley flinched as he said, "Regardless, it would be better for you to see me as though you've seen a ghost, for I belong to my wife alone. All of you, don't even think about pursuing me. Am I right, honey?"
Everyone was speechless.
Thea rolled her eyes at him as she walked over to take Eudora's hands.
"Eudora, why did you leave Rosaville City without telling us?"
Thea's pregnancy was two months apart from Eudora's, and she was about to give birth soon. She had come to visit her with her big belly, making Eudora feel somewhat guilty.
"I'm sorry! Everything just happened so suddenly. I was going to contact you guys after I'd settled down!"
Tina walked over with a smile. "It looks like I'll have to address you as my older sister now. With you around, our father wouldn't come after me again, would he?"
Tina was Tyler's adopted daughter. In the past, Tyler had focused all of his attention on her. Now that his biological daughter had returned, it seemed that he would no longer make things difficult for Tina. Eudora nodded, "That's right. You and Christopher will be able to live a peaceful life from now on."
Christopher cast a glance at Amos, who was standing behind them with a grim expression, "You two..."
Eudora changed the topic hurriedly. "Everyone, come on in!"
Harley too had realized that something was off, so he quickly changed the subject. "Right, my mates still have some work to attend to later. I was the one who forced them to come over for some milkshake. Hurry up and serve them some."
Eudora nodded to her staff, and the female waiters got to work immediately.
As they walked away, they couldn't help but sigh.
"Does Miss Eudora actually knows the cops? That means we won't get caught, right?"
"What are you thinking? Miss Eudora is a good person. Why else would she change the casino from before into a milkshake shop all of a sudden? From now on, we have to start doing the right things." "But... I am still urgently in need of money!"
Why else would girls come to such a place to work? They were all short on money!
"I suggest you go look for another job then. This won't do..."
Raymond stood in the shadows, his expression dark as he remained silent.
The milkshakes were served shortly after. As Harley's friends still had other work to attend to, they soon took their leave. Harley and the others were the only ones left outside.
Just as Harley was about to get to know the situation a little better, he realized that Amos had been standing in the same spot. He hadn't said a word ever since they arrived. Fabian stood across him, holding the same stance as Amos. The two of them looked at each other.
"It's you!" Fabian said coldly.
Amos' smirked. "Of course. Who else would it be?"
Fabian sneered. "Did you think that you've won just because of this? Rest assured, I won't let you have another chance. There is nothing that I can't get in this world!" "Let's just wait and see then!" Amos replied with a smile.
Harley looked at Amos, dumbfounded. "What's going on? Amos, I think that I have just realized something extraordinary."
Amos rolled his eyes. "No one will think that you're a mute if you don't speak."
Harley glanced at the two men and laughed.
"It's not that hard to decide who's the winner here. Shall we make a challenge then? Whoever gets the most customers shall emerge victoriously. What do you say?" Fabian frowned. "What a joke!"
Amos remained silent.
Harley's face was full of curiosity. "What's wrong? I thought that strong men like the two of you could accomplish anything! Now it's just a competition to see who could get the most customers, yet the both of you are hesitating. If I were Eudora, I wouldn't even fall for any of you."
Fabian and Amos quickly glanced at each other. Both of them saw unwillingness in each other's eyes.
The next second, the two of them shouted at Harley, who was about to turn around and leave, at the same time, "Wait a minute!"
Harley immediately stopped smiling. He turned to look at them. "Yes?"
"Let's do it!"
Fabian immediately turned around and told his assistant, "Go and get more people over."
Amos had also picked up his phone, about to make a call.
Harley quickly stopped them. "You are not allowed to call for help. I've said that this is a competition to see who fares better. What's the use of calling for help? You can't do that." Fabian frowned, and Amos' face fell too.
"Harley, are you itching for a beating?"
Harley flinched instinctively, but when he thought about the possibility of seeing Amos making a fool of himself, he could not help himself but go along with the plan. "See? Both of you like Eudora, and you two could see just how much effort she is putting into the business. If you don't work hard, how will you be worthy of her?" The two men looked towards the direction that Harley was pointing at.
Eudora had worn a pretty suit and worked hard for her shop's grand opening. At this moment, she was busy working with her staff.
She looked very beautiful when she was focused and driven.
Harley looked at the two men, who were completely charmed by the woman. He quickly pulled them back to their senses.
"Have you looked enough? If you have, then it's time to work!"
