One Night Stand With That Beggar

Eudora George said, “No! I’m just going on a simple work trip. It’s just a small matter.”

Eudora’s words were meant to provoke him. It reminded Amos Granger of last night when he told Eudora it was just a small matter that he could touch Wendy without developing rashes.

Amos frowned and said, “You’re obviously still angry at me.”

Eudora sighed. “Whatever. I’m going to get into the car now. Goodbye.”

“Eudora!” Amos shouted, “I won’t give up on you no matter where you go.”

Upon hearing this, Eudora’s mind was in a mess. She didn’t know what to say. She hung up the call immediately.

Christopher Gellert caught up with her from behind and asked, “What’s wrong? President Granger is asking you where you are, right?”

“No!” Eudora shook her head and said.

“You’re so stubborn!” Christopher said, “Okay, let’s finish this as soon as possible so that you can go home.”

…

Amos was lying on the bed alone at night. No one was lying beside him. He felt a sense of desolation.

He finally understood Eudora’s feelings when he was not at home.

Eudora was taking revenge on him!

All of a sudden, Cola came into the bedroom. However, it left when it realized that Eudora wasn’t in the room.

Amos was speechless at Cola.

Was he that unapproachable?

“Cola!” Amos called out its name. Then, he took a photo of Cola when it looked at him.

He sent it to Eudora with a caption:

It’s the first day you’re not home. Cola and I miss you so much.

Eudora heard the notification ping from her mobile phone when she had just finished showering.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

She was speechless when she saw the photo and the caption.

Amos was trying to act innocent! However, Eudora was still angry at him. Therefore, she ignored the message.

After staring at Cola on the screen for a while, she put down her mobile phone and lay on the bed.

Amos waited for a long time. However, Eudora did not reply to his text message. In the end, Amos fell asleep.

…

The next day, Eudora got up early in the morning and followed Christopher to the company.

Many companies were there to bid for the project. Christopher and Eudora looked at each other. It seemed that it would be very hard to acquire the project.

The staff of the company approached them.

“Please line up and enter the venue according to the appointed time.” The staff instructed.

The rules were simple. Those who were influential and rich would acquire the project.

Eudora felt that her company was nothing compared to the other companies. Although her company was the subsidiary of TEM Inc, they did not have excellent design ideas.

The designers from other companies were showing off their representative designs. However, Eudora had nothing to show to them.

Eudora decided to try anyway.

After a brief introduction of her company, she showed them the logistics center that was still under construction.

After the brief presentation, Christopher and Eudora did not put much hope in entering the next round of selections.

However, they didn’t expect that they would actually get through to the next round.

Eudora breathed a sigh of relief. They might actually have a chance to acquire the project as long as they win in the next round.

After returning to the hotel, Eudora held a meeting with Christopher and their other colleagues to discuss about it.

The discussion went past midnight. The colleagues were so tired that they fell asleep. Only Christopher and Eudora were still awake. They felt that it was really lucky for them to be able to enter the next round.

However, they were uncertain if they would be able to win next round because their competitor was really excellent.

Christopher got up and poured a cup of coffee. He sighed, “It’s okay. We can learn something from this.

“Yea.” Eudora nodded her head and responded optimistically.

All of a sudden, her mobile phone rang.

Eudora saw the text message from Amos: It’s the second day you’re not home. Kitty and I miss you very much.

Eudora was speechless.

She put down her phone and said, “I’m going to the bathroom.”

Christopher took a look at her mobile phone and made a phone call to Amos.

Amos thought it was Eudora who was calling him. He answered the phone call immediately.

However, Christopher’s voice came from the other end. “Good evening, President Granger. It feels bad to sleep alone at night, right?”

Amos frowned and said, “You’re with Eudora now.”

Christopher said, “Yeah! We are discussing about ways to acquire the project.”

Upon hearing this, Amos remained silent for a while and said, “You want me to help you.”

Christopher smiled and said, “President Granger, you’re really sharp. You can understand what I want.”

Amos sneered, “Why should I help you?”

“No, this is for Eudora. She has been staying up late for two nights in a row for this project…”

Amos did not say anything. He hung up the call immediately.

Christopher looked at his mobile phone and smiled. Then, he woke up his staff who were all sleeping, “Alright, let’s just call it a night!”

Everyone had left when Eudora came out of the bathroom.

She was stunned and asked, “Are we not going to discuss it anymore?”

“Ah, forget it. Let’s have a rest so that we will have enough energy tomorrow.” Christopher said.

Eudora agreed. She then went back to her room and rest.

Eudora woke up early in the morning the next day. She was wearing a black and white work outfit. She must be fully prepared for the final round.

She looked at her bag to check through her documents before she got out. She was very nervous.

However, Christopher remained calm. He said, “Don’t worry, everything will be fine.”

Eudora just kept quiet.

Everyone entered the hall at ten o’clock in the morning.

When she saw Amos and his staff sitting beside them, Eudora finally understood why Christopher was able to stay calm.

Eudora was stunned. She asked Christopher, “What’s going on?”

Christopher smiled and said, “President Granger wants to help you acquire this project.”

“C’mon. I know you were the one who asked him to come.” Eudora frowned. She wanted to prove that she was capable to acquire this project on her own. However, she still needed to rely on Amos in the end.

Christopher smiled and said, “What’s wrong with that? We’ll definitely win, right?”

Somone held Eudora’s hand while Eudora was talking with Christopher.

She turned to look at Amos and tried to pull her hand back but to no avail.

She frowned and said, “Amos! I don’t want to trouble you. This is Christopher’s decision. You can leave now if we’re bothering you.”

Amos shook his head and said, “Nope. Not at all.” in fact, he was very happy.

Being able to meet Eudora was the happiest thing for Amos.

He didn’t have to wait for her phone call. He also didn’t have to sleep alone. He could hold her hand and talk to her.

He would have been here earlier if he knew he could hold her hand like this.
