Chapter 12 Terms & Conditions

Eudora George was locked in the room for three whole days. She was only given a mouthful of water each day and not a single sliver of food.

On the third night, she was so hungry that she could hardly breathe.

The door was suddenly opened and Kesha George walked in.

She looked at Eudora's pathetic look and sneered. "Eudora, I heard from Brother-In-Law that you asked for a divorce. I didn't expect that you would try to cause such a big trouble?"

"What are you doing here?" Eudora clenched her teeth and glared at her sister.

"Do you think I really wanted to come? Father heard that you're asking for a divorce, so he sent me here to advise you."

'Heh! Advise me?' she thought. "Didn't you guys already sell Everpeace Group off? What use do I still have for you?"

"Now now don't say that Eudora. I mean, it would bode well for our family if we still have someone as successful as Felix as our son and brother-in-law yes? That way we will be able to live a better life too, don't you think so?"

It came to Eudora's realisation that her sister didn't come here to give her advice. Kesha just came here to laugh at her.

"If you don't have anything better to do, then get lost!" Eudora couldn't be bothered to pay any more attention to her.

"Don't be like that, Eudora!" Kesha responded wickedly, "Quite the contrary of what you think of me, I actually support you getting a divorce from him. What's the point of staying together if you don't love each other anymore, right? So you must persevere..."

"Kesha, what nonsense are you talking about to your sister?" Felix Meyer's voice came from behind her.

Kesha's expression immediately changed and she plastered an innocent smile on her face. "Brother-in-law, my sister is too stubborn. She is not listening to me!"

Felix sighed helplessly. "It would be great if your sister is as sensible as you."

Kesha looked at Felix. "Brother-in-law, you're so kind. I believe my sister will come to understand and appreciate your kindness."

"Okay!" Felix nodded. "You should go back first. I have something to talk to your sister."

Kesha shot Eudora a vicious glare and turned around reluctantly. "I shall take my leave then."

Eudora looked at this scene in front of her and sneered in her heart. Only a woman as superficial as Kesha would like a scum like Felix Meyer. They were a perfect match!

Felix closed the door behind him and walked over to help Eudora up. "Eudora, do you really want a divorce from me that much?"

Eudora refused to answer him. Her actions had clearly shown her intention.

"Okay!" Felix paused. "I can promise you that I will get a divorce with you. But as you know, the company is not doing very well right now. The project with Valiant East seems to be falling apart too. How could you leave at a difficult time like this?"

Eudora clenched her teeth. "What do you want?"

Felix thought for a moment and said, "Let's make a deal. And this is the only deal I will offer to you. I will let you go out and work the company. As long as you're able to make enough money to recover our losses, I'll let you go."

"What do you mean by 'recover our losses'? You ought to give me a figure."

Having gone through so much, Eudora would not be so stupid to blindly trust Felix again.

"Not much, just a few million dollars. As long as you help me secure a few big projects, I believe you will be able to earn that amount of money back, perhaps even more."

"In that case I want to put this on paper. I want to sign an agreement!" Eudora said.

"OK!" Felix agreed unexpectedly. He got up and went to the desk. He found a piece of paper and scribbled on it. He then handed the paper to Eudora. "Take a look. Is this okay?"

Eudora looked at it twice and after confirming that there were indeed no issues, she finally signed it.

"When do I start working?"

"Tomorrow morning."
