One Night Stand With That Beggar

The strict rules and regulations set by the Old Master had made Valiant East a successful company.

Anyone who violated the rules, regardless of the person’s identity, was bound to bear the consequences.

Hank Granger had violated one of the rules for a woman, so he was thrown out and left to die outside.

Harry Granger knew that his life was over when he heard the Old Master’s words earlier.

He desperately grabbed the Old Master’s legs, begging. However, the Old Master refused to even look at him.

“You’ve let me down, Harry. From now on, Steven and you are suspended from work. You’d better stay at home and not go anywhere else!”

The Old Master stomped out with his assistant’s help.

Amos then turned around and left the room with Eudora. Harry screamed behind them, “Amos, it was you who had planned all these, wasn’t it?”

Amos raised his eyebrows and replied, “Uncle Harry, you can’t simply accuse others just because you are in a bad mood. Aren’t you the one who brought this upon yourself?”

He then left with Eudora right away.

Suddenly, a loud bang came from the room. It sounded as though things were being smashed to the ground.

When they returned to the main hall, they saw the Old Master waiting for them outside the room.

“Come here. Let’s talk.”

Eudora turned to leave at once, knowing that her presence would not be welcomed. However, the Old Master asked her to stay.

“Stay.”

Eudora raised her eyebrows.

“Have a seat.” the Old Master exclaimed.

He sighed and said, “Amos, you have rested long enough. The company needs you now. You need to get the money back from the Coopers. Go to work tomorrow.”

Amos’ brows twitched, “But… my vacation isn’t over yet.”

“You…” The Old Master’s face froze, and he turned to Eudora, “How do you feel now, Miss George? Shall I ask the doctor to do a check-up for you?”

It was the first time he had shown any kind of concern for her. Eudora looked at him. She knew he wanted her help to persuade Amos.

However, she couldn’t deny that it was indeed a good opportunity for Amos to return to the company. Hence, she decided to become the mediator between the pair.

“I feel much better now.”

The Old Master looked relieved, “Since Miss George has already recovered, you don’t have to stay by her side the entire day,” He stared at Amos. He paused and continued after a while, “I will not concern myself with your relationship in the future.”

He got up and walked away while holding his assistant’s arm.

Eudora was overjoyed, “Is he saying that he would not intervene in our relationship anymore? Then we…”

“Are you that happy?” Amos looked at her and grinned.

Eudora nodded hurriedly, “Aren’t you?”

Amos did not say a word and merely took her into his arms.

They went back home later that evening.

Eudora had almost recovered after the trip – all thanks to the fresh air there.

Amos went to the company the next morning. Auntie Valerie was all ready when Eudora woke up, “Mr. Granger had asked me to go to the hospital with you for your check-up.”

Eudora felt that it wasn’t necessary for her to go for the check-up. However, Auntie Valerie insisted that she should.

After the check-up, the doctor declared that her wounds were almost fully healed. She just had to take good care of herself from now on.

Auntie Valerie was elated to hear that, “Thank goodness. I’ll go to the market to buy some groceries and make a wholesome meal for you. You have to recover quickly so that you could get pregnant soon!”

Eudora’s face flushed. She didn’t expect that Auntie Valerie would remember about this matter.

On the other hand, Auntie Valerie didn’t seem to think that it was something to be ashamed of, “Getting pregnant is a natural process. You don’t have to feel embarrassed about it.”

The two of them left the hospital together.

They bumped into Harry at the hospital entrance. Steven was holding his arm with Kaylene supporting him on the other side. They didn’t seem to be doing quite well.

Harry gritted his teeth when he overheard Eudora and Auntie Valerie’s conversation.

“Miss George!”

Eudora paused and looked at Harry. She did not expect that he would take the initiative to greet her.

Harry sneered and asked, “Do you really think that Amos likes you? It’s impossible for a person like him to fall in love!”

Eudora frowned, “You’re his uncle. How could you say that?”

“Uncle?” He laughed as though Eudora had said something ridiculous, “He’s the one who did all these to me. He had sacrificed me to protect you, likewise, he’s going to sacrifice you and hurt you one day for someone else. Don’t be manipulated by him. Take my advice! You don’t know him at all!”

“Thank you so much, Master Harry, I’ll make the judgment on my own!”

On their way back, Auntie Valerie kept nagging, “Master Harry has gone too far. How could he say such a thing about his own nephew? Miss George, believe me, Mr. Granger is definitely not that kind of person.”

Eudora nodded, “I know.”

All of a sudden, her phone rang.

Amos’ voice could be heard from the other end of the phone, “How did the check-up go?”

“It’s all good!” Eudora exclaimed, “What about you? How’s it going in the company?”

“Perfect!” Amos lowered his voice and added, “Wash up and wait for me to come home.”

Eudora blushed. She was about to reprimand him but decided not to as Auntie Valerie was beside her.

“Bye!”

…

Amos hung up the phone and returned to the private room.

Jeremy Cooper was sitting across Amos with his legs crossed. He smiled, “I have yet to settle the score with your Uncle. Why did you come to me?”

Amos leaned against the sofa and stared at him. His face was expressionless and cold.

“Mr. Cooper, you shouldn’t mix these two things up. I’m not here for the personal grudge that you have with my uncle. However, the money that you had robbed was from Valiant East. I don’t think that you would want to go against us, am I right?”

“I don’t care. Harry was the one who sent me the money!” Jeremy was indeed a rogue businessman.

Amos laughed, “It looks like you’ve made your choice. I shall pass this clip to the police then.”

He stood up and was prepared to leave.

Jeremy’s expression changed, “What do you mean?”

Amos glanced at Clint, who then immediately started showing a video in front of Jeremy.

It was a recording of Jeremy’s deal with Thomas Shelby. His face darkened before he burst out laughing.

“F*ck, no wonder Valiant East became so successful under your lead. I give up!” Jeremy glanced at his assistant, who quickly returned the box which he had robbed from Harry, to Amos.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
