My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) novel Chapter 812

Eudora stopped in her tracks, "What do you mean by got really unlucky?"

"Just like what I've said, their companies have been run into problems. A few companies got investigated for various reasons by the authorities. One of them got the worst outcome of all. Their share prices have been going up and down like a rollercoaster since this morning. Some older shareholders even had a heart attack! That was why I wanted to ask you if something had happened last night."

Eudora shook her head, "Nothing happened!"

"That's good! It must have been a coincidence then! Interestingly, most of the companies affected were companies with bad reputations. Perhaps the heavens were punishing them."

Eudora nodded, "Yes!"

When she returned to her desk, Eudora sat alone in front of the computer and stared blankly for a while.

Although she had been drunk last night, she had still been sober when everything had happened. She could easily remember some of the details.

She went online and searched for the companies that had gotten into trouble.

The company that had been affected the most belonged to the man that had harassed her last night. Compared with what he had looked like yesterday, in the pictures posted online, he appeared miserable.

It even looked as if he had been beaten up. There were patches of bruises all over his body!

Wasn't it too much of a coincidence?

Eudora sat in front of the computer and was stunned for a while. Then, she called for Clint again, "Help me find out whether someone had plotted this secretly."

Clint was suspicious, "Are you suspecting that someone has done this on purpose?"

Eudora felt uncertain, "I just feel that it's too much of a coincidence! Just investigate it!"

"Okay!" Clint turned around and went out.

Eudora leaned against her desk for a while. Then, she got up and went home.

Sugar Bun could already walk and say some simple words. When Eudora arrived at home, she saw Cindy holding Sugar Bun's hand while they were waiting for her at the door.

At the sight of Eudora, Sugar Bun acted like a bird getting released from its cage. He ran over joyfully and jumped into her arms.

"Mommy."

The void in Eudora's heart instantly filled with warmth as she picked him up.

"Sugar Bun, have you been a good boy?"

Sugar Bun did not seem to fully understand her words, but he responded, "I've been good!"

He made Eudora laugh and she gave him a kiss on the cheek.

Cindy hurriedly said, "He was looking for you last night. I told him that you were busy, then he calmed down and went to bed. He's very sensible now!"

Eudora looked at him with pity. He was just a child and was allowed to act more willfully. However, both of her children were more mature than their peers. She had failed as a mother.

Lowering her head, Eudora gave him another kiss.

She said, "Mommy is not busy today, so let's go see Juju!"

Sugar Bun's eyes lit up. "Okay!"

At the same time, Juju was outdoors. In addition to studying and practicing her fighting skills everyday, she was learning to do outdoors sports.

Eudora had previously heard about that, so she went with Sugar Bun.

The two of them hid far away and peeked at Juju from a corner.

At that moment, Juju was practicing archery in the wild. It had only been a few days, but Eudora felt that Juju had lost a lot of weight. The baby fat on her face was almost gone.

Her heart ached, and her eyes turned red involuntarily.

Eudora did not want to make Sugar Bun sad as well, so she hurriedly raised her hand and wiped her tears away.

Taking advantage of that window of opportunity, Sugar Bun took off and ran towards Juju.

"Juju, Juju..."

Juju paused for a moment, then smiled at Sugar Bun.

Eudora quickly caught up to him. The moment Juju saw Eudora, she retracted her smile, and her face turned cold.

She picked Sugar Bun up and hurriedly turned away. Only when she was far away from Juju did she squat down to cry.

The next day, when Eudora woke up, her eyes were still swollen.

However, she had a lot of things to do today, so she could not slack off.

After getting up, she put some ice on her eyes for a while. When it got better, she put on some makeup and went out.

She was meeting with Elaine to talk about a project. It was regarding the charity project by Sebastian.

Although the money had been returned, the company's reputation had still been affected after all. After the meeting yesterday, Eudora decided to proceed with the project.

However, there was no need to crowdfund it this time.

Instead, she wanted to build a few schools in the poorer regions through the platform.

Elaine was a straightforward person, so the discussion went smoothly. After that, she proposed to Eudora to have lunch together at noon.

Eudora was a client, so she could not refuse Elaine's request and went along with her.

After walking out of the door, Eudora saw that Sawyer was standing beside Elaine's car. As usual, he was wearing all black and kept a low profile.

Eudora's eyes flitted over him and then got into her car.

"See you at the restaurant."

Elaine nodded. After getting into the car, she teased Sawyer.

"You've been acting strange recently! Do you realize that you can't leave me now? You even volunteered to be my driver for the day!"

Sawyer remained silent for a while.

Then, he replied, "It's just that I've been bored at home."

Elaine rolled her eyes, "Can't you just say something to make me happy?"

Sawyer paused for a moment before continuing to ask, "Miss George doesn't seem to be in a good state today. What's up with her?"
