After the two children finished speaking, they tiptoed and put the gold pendant around Eudora's neck.
However, Sugar Bun was too short. As soon as he stood on his toes, he lost his balance and the pendant in his hand fell to the ground!
Eudora hurriedly held Sugar Bun and asked, "Are you alright?"
Sugar Bun nodded his head. In the next instant, Juju exclaimed, "It's broken!"
Eudora looked over to the pendant anxiously and heard Amos's cold voice.
He said, "There's something in it."
The inside of the pendant was hollow. After the pendant got broken, a small yellow note came out of it.
Eudora picked the pendant up and tilted it until the yellow note fell out.
The note had been folded many times into an extremely small size.
After Eudora opened the note, she could clearly see that it was actually a land deed.
Eudora then opened Juju's pendant accordingly and saw another land deed in it.
The main point was that those were not any ordinary pieces of land. One of the two pieces of land was located at the west hill of Rosaville City, which had not been developed yet.
It was a place with beautiful mountains and clear rivers, a treasure land.
It currently held a high value in the market, but no one knew that the land had already been sold.
The other land, although not located in an area with beautiful scenery, was instead situated in the current new developing zone. It was estimated that the area would be booming in the future.
Eudora looked at the two deeds and forgot about her sorrow.
"Did Grandpa really give this to the both of you?"
"Yes!" Juju and Sugar Bun nodded. "Grandpa said that it's a souvenir for us! We had no idea about what was inside though!"
Eudora and Amos looked at each other. After Eudora put away the deed, she clasped the necklace.
"Since this is a gift from Grandpa to the both of you, then you have to keep it well!" "We will!" her two children answered.
After a moment of silence, Eudora seemed to remember something and said, "Mom will take these two letters left by Grandpa as souvenirs, okay?"
"Yes!" Juju nodded. "It's okay!"
Sugar Bun also nodded vaguely and said, "Okay!"
Eudora laid on the bed at night, nervously thinking about the two deeds. Although she had already put the deeds away, she still felt uneasy.
"How did Dad get that?"
Eudora sighed. It was obvious that Gordon had been poor before this. Otherwise, when things had happened to Everpeace Group, Gordon would not have asked her to go back and reconcile with Felix.
At that time, he really had no other way to save Everpeace Group. That was why he had come up with a solution like that!
Amos hesitated and asked, "Don't you remember? It seems that a long time ago, Kesha once said that your father still had a certain amount of money in the bank! Didn't she fight with you about the money?"
Eudora nodded and said, "I do remember, but it was only a small amount! I really have no clue how he could afford to buy both these lands!"
The market value of the lands were at least more than a billion dollars!
Looking at her haggard face, Amos reached out to stroke her bandaged hand.
"Forget it, there's no use thinking about it now. I'll ask Clint and Charlie to investigate this tomorrow!"
Eudora hummed in agreement, and then seemed to have thought of another thing, suddenly grabbing Amos's arm.
"Let me see."
Amos was stunned and said, "I'm fine!"
Eudora paid him no mind. She tugged on his arm and looked at it carefully under the light.
There was a row of very deep teeth marks on it, looking like it was going to bleed at any second!
Eudora's nose twitched, and she reached out her hand to stroke his arm. She asked, "Does it hurt?"
