Chapter 789 Why Don't I Resign

Andrew smashed another bottle of wine.
His face was really ugly, even uglier than when he knew that his mother had been killed by Ethan.
He had never dreamed that Beau would be able to set up a scheme when he was so seriously injured and when he learned that his wife and the others were in trouble because of Chester.
Unconsciously, he also bought the shares of Dewfall International.
He was careless.
He was too proud of himself.
How could an opponent of Beau's level be defeated so easily?
Andrew was annoyed, but he didn't show it on the surface.
"When is the board meeting?"
"At ten o'clock tomorrow morning, in the office of Star-Moon Media."
Andrew raised his head. "What?"
He didn't seem to hear it clearly, but he also seemed to be in disbelief.
The assistant also felt that Beau was too arrogant. He dared to provoke Andrew just because he had escaped from death. He moved the board of directors of Dewfall International to Star-Moon Media.
This was obviously a provocation.
"Sir."
Andrew took a deep breath and suppressed the anger in his heart. He turned to his assistant and said, "Get ready. I want to see what tricks Beau dares to play."
"Yes."
On the other side, after the press conference, Beau and the others went to the hospital.
On the way, Eliza was distracted.
Seeing her like this, Beau couldn't help but feel sorry for her.
He couldn't help but comfort her. "Don't worry. Graciana will definitely cheer up again and make peace with you."
Eliza paused for a moment and lowered her head with a dejected expression.
"Is it really possible?"
Beau nodded. "Of course."
Eliza was barely comforted. Her expression relaxed a little, but there was still a hint of worry in her voice.
Beau had no choice but to wink at Braint and the others in the car.
In terms of comforting people, they were better than him. 
Braint soon understood and made an " Ok" gesture to Beau.
He signaled that Beau owed him twice.
The first time was on the scene, and the second time was when he helped the netizens to dig out about Andrew, and even added fuel to the fire behind the scenes.
His son was like a debt collector. Beau nodded helplessly.
Only then did Braint sit up and motioned for Demarion to speak.
Demarion had always listened to Braint, so when he saw this, he leaned against Eliza.
"Mommy, is Mr. Benton with Graciana?"
"Should I call Graciana aunt or Mr. Benton uncle in the future?"
Demarion's words successfully diverted Eliza's attention.
She thought for a while and replied, "Not yet, but it should be soon."
"When the time comes, you can call him uncle."
Beau raised his eyebrows. "Why is that so? You should call Graciana aunt."
Eliza said, "I've known Graciana for many years. She's my best friend. If Julian likes her, then he should be tolerant, shouldn't he?"
"But Julian is their uncle."
Eliza was unhappy. "So?"
Beau was speechless. 
Liliana reached out to pull Beau's clothes and said, "Daddy, Mr. Benton used to be my dad. Can't I call Graciana mommy?"
Eliza and Beau said, "You can't!"
There was only one daddy and mommy, and they could never be confused!
Liliana pouted, but in the end, she did not refute.
Eliza softened her voice and tried to persuade Liliana. "Perhaps you can take them as your godfather and godmother."
"..."
Under the interference of the three little kids, Eliza indeed forgot her previous worries and threw herself into a new topic.
Beau gave them a thumbs-up.
Braint gave him two more fingers as a reminder.
Before they knew it, they had arrived at the hospital.
When the door opened, two people came up to them with tears in their eyes.
It was Eden and Noah.
"Mr. Valentine."
"Mr. Valentine, it's great that you're fine."
Beau felt quite guilty about these two assistants.
He patted them on the shoulder and said, "Well, what does it look like for men to cry?"
"Let's go up and have a look first."
Noah returned to work in a second.
"We've made contact with the hospital. As long as Miss Ryan is willing, we'll send her abroad for treatment immediately. All her wounds will be healed and no scars will be left."
Eliza's eyes lit up. "She really won't leave a scar?"
Noah shook his head.
"Is it a plastic surgery?"
"It doesn't count as a plastic surgery. It's just a medical beauty to a certain extent."
Eliza was relieved.
Noah added, "But now Miss Ryan is very passive. The doctor said that she is very disobedient and it will affect her body and wounds."
Beau tutted. "Julian is still useless."
He looked at Eliza.
Eliza nodded solemnly. "I'll persuade her."
Beau patted her little face. "Don't push yourself too hard. If she doesn't want to talk to you, don't take it to heart."
"Don't worry."
Noah and Eden had already arranged everything. Along the way, they were escorted by bodyguards and they entered using a special passage. No one would find their route.
Eliza got out of the car and walked to Graciana's ward.
When she reached the door, she took a deep breath.
She turned around.
Beau and the children all clenched their fists to encourage her.
Eliza nodded and summoned up her courage to knock on the door.
Footsteps came from the room, and then the door was opened. Julian's tall figure stood at the door.
"Well, I..."
Before Eliza could say anything, Julian took two steps back and made way for her.
Eliza was stunned and looked at Julian.
"Not coming in?"
"I am."
Eliza looked back at Beau and then entered the ward.
Julian bent down and picked up a hot kettle from the side, saying, "I'm going to get some hot water. You two can talk."
With that said, he left, leaving Eliza and Graciana behind.
Eliza had long seen that there was a water dispenser in the ward, and there was a separate bathroom next to it. The hot water was supplied 24 hours a day.
She didn't know what kind of hot water Julian would get. 
She muttered in her heart, but she didn't say anything on the surface. Instead, she looked at Graciana, who was lying on the bed and avoiding her eyes.
"Graciana, are you... okay?"
Graciana still did not dare to turn her face back. She forced a smile and said, "I'm fine. I've recovered. But you, why aren't you filming in the crew? Instead, you're running around."
Eliza, "I want to visit you first."
"What's so interesting about me? The film is more important. This is your last play, and it was guided by Mr. Bell. It's a rare opportunity."
Eliza fixed her gaze on Graciana. "The filming is important. You are even more important."
The words that was about to come out of Graciana's mouth were stuck in her throat.
Eliza was a little sad. "Graciana, can you look back at me?"
Graciana immediately reached out her hand to cover her face, which seemed to be a reflexive response. 
She was afraid that Eliza would see her current appearance, and she was even more afraid of seeing sympathy or fear in Eliza's eyes.
She didn't want others to pity her, and she didn't want her good friend to dislike her.
"There's nothing to see. I watched your press conference before. You're in a good state."
"By the way, there is one more thing. With Beau by your side, you don't have to act in the future. I don't think you still need me as your agent."
"Why don't I resign instead?"
