Chapter 9 Mr. Granger Is Waiting For You
The document was an agreement on the Phantom Group’s legal acquisition of the George family’s Everpeace Group. Just two days ago, the Phantom Group acquired Everpeace Group.
Eudora George saw the name ‘Gordon George’ on the contract and remembered what her father said to her before she returned to the Meyer residence that day.
“Eudora, this is the last time I assure you! As long as the George family is able to survive this crisis, I will definitely bring you back!”
“Heh! What a liar!”
When she flipped open the rest of the pages of document, Everpeace Group was indeed already acquired by the Phantom Group.
“You still don’t know, do you? The government is planning to develop Rosaville City and they were looking at building a waste-processing factory in the city. It took me some time to consider the most suitable location to build the factory, but now that I think about it, the land where the Everpeace group is built on seems to be the perfect spot…” Felix Meyer smiled evilly.
“Pa!” Eudora gave Felix a hard slap.
“Felix Meyer, you’re so shameless!”
Felix instinctively licked the blood at the corner of his mouth with his tongue. “Eudora, just because I didn’t hit you today doesn’t mean that you can do whatever you want. If you fail tomorrow, trust me I’ll make sure the Everpeace Group becomes a garbage dump!”
“I’ll memorize it!” Eudora angrily took the documents. “But I have one condition. Promise me you will return Everpeace Group to me if I’m able to successfully secure this project for you!”
“Return it to you?” Felix laughed scornfully. “Eudora you naive little girl. Do you know how much money I spent on buying this trash? 80 million dollars!”
“Fine, 80 million dollars it is!” Eudora clenched her teeth.
Felix glared at Eudora in contempt. “We’ll talk about it when you have money!”
Before she married Felix, Eudora graduated from one of the top management universities and even worked in Everpeace Group for several years. She was well-versed with dealing with projects and securing deals. She quickly memorised the key points needed for the discussion.
Upon seeing this, Felix left the building and drove his car out.
…
The next morning, outside Valiant East.
Clint Zuckerberg was notified of the arrival of Felix and Eudora at the entrance of the building.
He quickly informed Amos, “Sir, they have arrived.”
“Okay!” Amos stood up from his chair and placed his hands into his pockets. He walked over to the edge of the glass windows and took a deep breath, enjoying the picturesque view in front of him. It was a sunny day – the sky was blue and there were white clouds slowly floating along the horizon.Text © by N0ve/lDrama.Org.
The weather was perfect.
Eudora opened the door and got off the car. Felix reminded her once again, “The future of Everpeace Group is in your hands!”
Eudora narrowed her eyes at Felix and slammed the door behind her.
After handing Eudora her temporary pass, the receptionist led her to the top floor. Eudora stood in the elevator and tried to compose herself. She was feeling very nervous.
The elevator doors opened at the highest floor.
Eudora squeezed the file in her hands and stepped out of the elevator.
Clint was already waiting for her and welcomed her warmly. He said politely, “The boss is waiting for you inside. Please come with me.”
“Will there be others joining us for the meeting?” Eudora asked subconsciously.
Clint was puzzled at her query. “Hm?”
“I mean… we are discussing about a project up for bidding, yes? Shouldn’t the relevant departments be present in the meeting to make the final decision?”
Clint stifled a laugh at her innocent question.
“No, Mr. Granger makes the final decision.”
Eudora let out an embarrassed laugh. “Of course. What was I thinking.”
“Miss George, please follow me.”
Clint walked ahead of her and through the corridor. Finally, he stopped at the entrance to an office and went forward to knock on the door. Clint turned around and said to Eudora, “Miss George, please go on ahead!”
