One Night Stand With That Beggar

“What?” Amos Granger asked in a low voice.

Eudora George was so nervous that she couldn’t hear that it was Amos’ voice. So, she repeated her question again.

“I want your phone number.”

“Okay!” After saying that, Amos immediately took out his mobile phone.

The group of women behind her looked at their silhouettes excitedly that they almost jumped up. In the next second, the man’s phone screen lit up. Soon after, Eudora’s cell phone rang.

Eudora was stunned and said hurriedly, “I’ll need to answer the call…”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

She picked up her phone and took a quick look at it. It was Amos. She immediately answered the call and said, “I’m going back soon…”

“Got it!” The voice which was coming from the phone was in sync with the voice in front of her.

Eudora was stunned, and the mobile phone in her hand almost fell into the ground. The onlookers behind her were also dumbfounded. “What’s going on? Is that super handsome guy Eudora’s man?”

Under everyone’s suspicion, the man instantly wrapped his arm around Eudora’s waist.

“It seems that you have already gotten my number in your mobile phone. Do you still want it then?”

Eudora said, “… Why are you here?”

Amos’ voice was a little low. “Can’t you even recognize your man’s voice?”

“Well…” Just when Eudora was about to explain, the group of women behind her quickly showed up before them.

“Eudora, you’ve gone too far. Why didn’t you tell us that you have gotten yourself such a handsome guy? No wonder you’ve been saying that you and President Gellert are just ordinary friends. It turns out that you already have a boyfriend!”

Upon hearing this, Amos glanced at the person who just spoke.

“Thank you for taking care of my fiancée. I’ll treat everyone to afternoon tea some other day.”

Fiancée!!!

As soon as this word came out, everyone was dumbfounded. “I didn’t expect that she was already his fiancée!”

Eudora didn’t know what else Amos was going say if they stayed there even a minute longer. Fortunately, her colleagues had not seen Amos before. Otherwise, it would be really troublesome if the news was spread out.

She hurriedly interrupted their conversation, “It’s late, we’re leaving now!”

After they left, Eudora asked Amos, “Why are you here?”

Amos pursed his lips and thought of the news that he saw in the afternoon. But his words changed when it reached the tip of his tongue, “Because I miss you!”

Eudora was speechless.

After a moment of silence, Amos suddenly said, “Why didn’t you tell me that the warehouse will be officially completed today?”

“You have your things that you are busy with so I didn’t want to bother you with it.” Eudora said sullenly.

Amos frowned, he thought of this little woman’s words in the morning and immediately exposed her. “Is this what you wanted to tell me this morning?”

“Yes!”

The two of them fell silent again. There was a short pause before Amos said. “I’m sorry. Next time, I’ll…”

“It’s okay!” Eudora interrupted him.

She didn’t want to listen to him saying “next time”. He would always say what he would do next time. She couldn’t help but feel helpless. She had heard these words too many times.

“Let’s not talk about this anymore, okay?” Eudora said.

“Okay!” Amos nodded. But, they would have nothing to talk about if they didn’t talk about this.

When Amos looked over to her again, Eudora had already fallen asleep. She looked very tired and there were dark circles under her eyes. Amos frowned at the sight of it and pulled the car over at the shoulder of the road. He slowly laid her down on his thighs and gently massaged her eyes.

Perhaps it might be too selfish of him to force her to stay, but he still wanted to hold on to her for a little bit longer.

……

Wendy’s was the name of Wendy Liam’s design company.

Kesha George entered the company to work as an assistant. There were no interactions between her and Wendy until this morning, when Kesha was being criticized by the designer.

“If you can’t even properly cut a sleeve, what else do you want me to let you do?”

Kesha straightened her neck and said, “You are the designer. Why are you expecting me to do it when even you can’t do it yourself?”

She had never suffered any hardships in her life before. She thought that she would live a happy life after getting together with Felix Meyer, but never did she expect that Felix would be sent to jail by Amos.

The Everpeace Group was also gone, and her father was sick. Her family’s situation was getting worse each day, so she had no choice but to find a job.

But even when she was working, she still couldn’t change her temper.

The designer was so furious that he picked up the scissors on the table and was about to stab her. At this moment, Wendy suddenly rushed out and blocked the scissors with her arm.

The scissors left a slit on Wendy’s arm. Some of the staff recognized that Wendy was the boss and hurriedly called the doctor.

Kesha was also shocked. “Boss, are you okay?”

Wendy shook her head and turned to look at the designer. “You’re too strict. She’s just an assistant. You need to teach her patiently. How could you resort to violence?”

The designer nodded repeatedly. “I’m sorry, Boss.”

“Forget about it, go do your work! As for you, come to my office!”

Kesha followed her with trepidation. While the doctor was treating her wound, Wendy said to Kesha, “Come over here and sit down.”

Kesha gawked at Wendy. “I know that you are going to fire me. Just say it. You don’t need to be so hypocritical.”

Wendy smiled faintly. “Who said that I was going to fire you? Couldn’t it be that I wanted you to be my assistant?”

“Why?” Kesha said in surprise.

Wendy thought for a moment and said, “It’s fate, I guess! One of my friends has a similar name to yours. Her name is Eudora George, and she is my best friend. However, she doesn’t want to talk to me now because of some tiny misunderstanding. It’s such a pity.”

Kesha was stunned and suddenly frowned.

“Eudora is my sister. I advise you not to waste your time on her. She is a vicious person. In order to be with Amos Granger, she won’t even recognize her own father and her husband whom she was married to for three years…”

Upon hearing this, Wendy’s heart was at ease. It was like she had expected.

Kesha was indeed Eudora’s family, but she looked like she hated Eudora too.

But Wendy’s face was filled with feigned shock. “Don’t talk nonsense. Eudora is a very good person. I’m the one who had let her down.”

“Come on, she’s my sister, how could I not know about her? Since you are familiar with my sister, you should know about the matter regarding her ex-husband. She deliberately made him go bankrupt and sent him to prison. What good does it do to you to be such good friends with her?”

“What ex-husband?” Wendy hurriedly asked.

Kesha proceeded to tell Wendy about Felix.

Wendy was happy but jealous of Eudora at the same time. How could Amos accept a woman whom had been married before? And that even the people in the Granger family had accepted her?

“That is impossible, isn’t it? How could Amos be willing to accept such a woman?”

Kesha sneered. “That’s because my brother-in-law didn’t touch her at all. She was the one who had killed my brother-in-law’s beloved one. That was why my brother-in-law hated her so much!”

“Is there such a thing?” Wendy thought and frowned. After Kesha had finished speaking, Wendy took out a recording pen from the bottom of the table and edited out her own voice from the recording. She then put the pen into an envelope.

When Auntie Agnes came to the company, she handed it directly to Auntie Agnes. “Send this to the address that is written on the note.”

Auntie Agnes looked at the envelope. “What’s inside?”

“You don’t need to know, just send it according to the address that I’ve given to you!”

Auntie Agnes glanced at the note. The Granger Mansion?
