My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) novel Chapter 623

The night grew darker.

Amos followed the path he took last night and slipped into the Holt family's entrance.

He stood outside of Eudora's room as he thought of what Harley had told him just now.

Since the Nolan family was close to the Holt family, could they be in cahoots?

He already knew that the Nolan family was being targeted, so he had to remind Eudora of the danger.

Just as he was hesitating, Eudora's voice rang from inside, "Who's there?"

Amos paused and the door had already been opened. Eudora stared at Amos in astonishment, "You..."

She must have just finished taking a shower and wore a cute cartoon- printed camisole. Her long hair was draped over her shoulders, appearing to be slightly damp.

Amos frowned and asked, "Why did you wash your hair at night again? How can you rest if your hair isn't dry yet?"

"Huh?" Eudora was taken aback. Amos suddenly realized that their relationship was no longer what it used to be, so he hurriedly changed the topic.

"I came to see Juju. How is she doing?"

Amos came up with an excuse quickly.

"Uh..." Eudora paused for a moment and told him, "Juju is asleep."

"Oh, that's fine!" Amos said and turned to leave. However, he couldn't stop himself from looking back at Eudora after taking a few steps away.

"I haven't congratulated you yet for taking over the Holt family. However, to be the head of the family, you must understand all its assets well, as well as execute and plan for the family's development properly. This is the most important thing to do, especially when there are some things that should stay in the dark..."

After saying that, Amos strode away before Eudora could react.

Eudora stood rooted on the spot for a while before she finally came to her senses.

"Wait a minute, something's not right. How did he get in?"

Moreover, he had said so many things that were completely out of place. She pinched her own cheeks, only to find that it hurt. It wasn't a dream after all.

She stayed rooted for a while and remembered what Amos said to her just now.

She needed to figure out the family's assets, especially those that couldn't be exposed to the public?

Her heart skipped a beat. In truth, the issue that Amos raised to her a while ago had already been on her mind for some time. Otherwise, why would she think of opening a milk tea shop when she first arrived at the Holt family?

If the Holt family was indeed involved in some sort of illegal industry, it wouldn't be good for the family. As she thought of this, she hurriedly called Leslie.

Currently, the only person Eudora trusted the most in the Holt family was Leslie Clarke.

Leslie also felt that this matter was of great importance, so he briefly analyzed it to Eudora on the phone.

"Besides the documents you used back then when you modified the milk tea shop that, the rest of the documents in my hand are legitimate industries. However, I don't know if that's the same for Samuel. He rarely interacted with us over the years, and Mr. Holt doesn't care much about him either. He's always busy with his own matters. If you're not at ease, I'll call Samuel over right now.

Let's ask him about this in private."

"There's no need to!" Eudora shook her head and said, "It's late now. There's no rush. Let's go to the hotel tomorrow! We can also check up on things there as well.”

After hanging up, she went back to her bed again.

Her head was filled with thoughts as she looked at her daughter who was sound asleep. She really didn't want to believe that Charlie had plotted to kill Tyler. However, suppose that Charlie really did murder Tyler, regardless of whether it was planned or not. In that case, she couldn't forgive him as Tyler’ s daughter.

But then, what about Amos and her...

"Miss, you're here to patrol, right? Feel free to take a look. I've already made all the necessary arrangements!"

Eudora was used to his cold attitude, so she didn't say a word. She took Leslie around and then came back to find Samuel again.

"You've done a good job."

Samuel gave her a brief reply, thinking to himself that Eudora was indeed a couraegous woman with no brains.

"If there's nothing else, Miss George, I'll leave first. I have things to attend to."

"There is something I need to talk to you about," Eudora smiled, "Let's go inside and

talk!"

In the office, Samuel paused in shock after listening to Eudora' s question. He then replied, "There's nothing improper or illegal going on under my supervision. Miss George, don't you worry!"

"There's no clubs and any of the sort, right?"

Eudora was actually doing this for the good of the Holt family. Although there was nothing illegal about opening nightclubs, places like that were usually easily taken advantage of.

If someone had tried to do something there on purpose, the Holt family would be at a loss.

Samuel was already dissatisfied with Eudora, and upon hearing her words, he immediately felt annoyed.

"Miss George, don’t you think that you' re being overly uptight? We've been running the club for so many years. Do you think that our businesses are illegal?"

"No, it's not that, Uncle Chilton. I just feel that since father has just left, the Holt family has suffered a heavy blow. Since we are under the watchful gaze of everyone else, it wouldn’t be good if someone were to take advantage of Samuel sneered, "Then what do you want to do? You want to turn them all into milk tea shops, don't you? Leslie will listen to you, but I won't, because I am not a brainless puppet."

When Leslie heard his words, he immediately felt pissed off.
