One Night Stand With That Beggar

Kesha never regarded Eudora as her sister. Hence, when she knew that Eudora had an accident, she was actually overjoyed.

Therefore, she deliberately came here to see what the accident was about.

However, of course, she would not express her true feelings in front of everyone.

At this moment, she said in a hurry.

“Eudora, I thought that you couldn’t see anything. How did you know it was me then?”

Eudora frowned, “Your perfume is strong and familiar…” She then sneezed in Kesha’s direction.

Kesha immediately let out an “Eww” and said, “Why did you do that? You’re sneezing all over my face!”

Unbeknownst to Kesha, this was Eudora’s intention all along.

However, she merely imitated Kesha’s pretentious look, “Sorry, I couldn’t see.”

Kesha pouted and snorted in dissatisfaction.

Steven immediately spoke up, “It’s okay. Kesha was just concerned about you. Knowing that something happened to you, she immediately came to see you!”

Eudora didn’t bother to pay attention to him. Amos then said, “You have seen her, and you also know what’s going on. You may leave now.”

Steven got up, “Amos, please don’t be angry. I don’t believe what my mother had said about Eudora is true. As for the will, it is what I have said earlier, I don’t have any motives about taking over the company. When Eudora gets better, I will let you take over the company. I will help you to take care of it first. Don’t worry, and I will keep an eye on the company affairs.”

Amos merely acknowledged with a slight ‘hm’. Then, the two of them turned around and left.

In the distance, she could still hear Kesha complaining.

“Ugh, it’s so disgusting!”

“It’s alright…”

Eudora anxiously looked for Amos after they left. However, she couldn’t see at all, so she couldn’t find where he was.

In the end, Amos walked over and held her hand.

“Don’t move. I’m going to open the window and let some fresh air in.”

Eudora’s panic immediately dissipated upon hearing his voice.

She smiled wryly and nodded, “Well, it’s time to open the windows and get rid of the pungent perfume smell.”

The wind blew in from outside the window. Eudora breathed a sigh of relief, “It feels so much better now.”

However, she frowned when she recalled what Steven said earlier.

“Did something happen to the meeting? Was it because of me? Amos…”

Amos sighed, and the next second, he pulled her into his arms and pressed her head against his chest gently.

“I’ve already said that everything is fine, haven’t I? Don’t worry about it. You should have a good rest, okay?”

“I have a lot of questions in my mind now. Do you think that I could still rest well like this? I wanted to help you. I had never wanted to become your burden…”

Amos’ heart sank, his arms tightening around her.

“You’re not a burden to me at all. Alright, I’ll tell you then. But you have to promise me that you would not be anxious over it.”

Later, when Amos told Eudora about what had happened during the meeting and especially emphasizing how Bethany had shown up with a new will, Eudora seemed visibly surprised.

She finally realized what was going on.

She had thought that Bethany was acting weirdly for the past two days.

Was this the reason then?

“But…” She pursed her lips, “Why did she do that?”

The Old Master was still looking out for her before he died. Why did she do this kind of thing then?NôvelDrama.Org © 2024.

Amos reached out and grabbed her hand, “Don’t think about it anymore. It’s not something we could decipher easily. Don’t worry about it!”

“But…” Eudora remembered that Amos had handed Valiant East over to Steven, “They probably want to seize the opportunity to take charge of the company for themselves! How could you hand over Valiant East to them?”

Amos said coldly, “That depends on whether they have the ability to do that or not. Not everyone could handle Valiant East. Well, your eyes are still unwell, you should go to sleep quickly. I’ll stay here with you.”

It was true that Eudora was feeling rather unwell. Her head was throbbing.

Hence, she nodded and soon fell asleep.

When her breathing gradually slowed into a steady beat, Amos’ eyes fell on the gauze on her head.

He couldn’t believe that they weren’t involved in Eudora’s accident. They knew that Amos wouldn’t be satisfied with the conditions of the will. So, they conjured up a scheme to hurt Eudora when he least expected it.

When he saw her unconscious self drenched in a pool of blood, his heart almost stopped beating. He was really scared. He knew that he couldn’t afford to lose her.

He had a wife and a daughter now. He was no longer the previous Amos who would strive alone.

When he was alone, he could fight fearlessly, and it didn’t matter even if he got hurt. However, everything was different now.

If he couldn’t fight them face to face, he could only a fort by strategy.

…

It was already dark when Eudora woke up.

Although she couldn’t see, she could hear the sound of a nurse coming over to deliver something.

“Dinner time!”

Before Eudora could move, Amos spoke. His voice was as indifferent as ever, “Put there.”

When he turned his head and looked at Eudora, his eyes were full of tenderness, “Are you awake?”

The nurse looked at Eudora enviously, turned around, and went out.

“Yes,” Eudora responded and got up in a daze.

Amos came over with something in his hand, “Are you feeling hungry? I’ll feed you.”

She couldn’t see anything anyway, so she obliged. After eating a few mouthfuls, she seemed to recall that something was amiss.

“Where’s Juju?”

Amos’ fingers paused, “She went on a trip!” After everything that had happened, he immediately asked Aunt Valerie to take Juju away from the Granger family. No matter where they went, it would be much safer than staying in the Granger family.

“That’s so sudden…” Eudora pursed her lips. However, on second thought, when she remembered what Amos had said about Bethany earlier, she felt that it was for the best.

Now that Rosaville City had become unsafe for them. Perhaps it would be better for them to leave the city.

Amos wiped her mouth gently after she finished her food. Just as he asked someone to take the dishes away, the phone rang.

Amos picked it up, it was Juju’s excited voice.

“Daddy, Mommy. I am in another city now! It is so beautiful! We are very happy.”

“Ah! Juju, you have to take more pictures of the scenery and show them to Mommy then!”

“Sure!” Juju giggled.

Soon, another pleasant voice was heard, “Eudora, President Granger, don’t worry. I’ll take care of Juju.”

Eudora was startled. It was Anya’s voice.

Since Anya was good at both literary and martial arts, she was relieved to have her accompany Juju.

After chatting for a while, Juju then bid them goodbye. She blew a kiss through the phone.

Eudora quickly reached over. Before she could speak, the phone was hung up.

“Why did you hang up so quickly? I haven’t given my daughter a kiss yet!”

As soon as her words fell, a warm kiss fell on her lips. Eudora was speechless.

Amos whispered in her ear, “This is a kiss I helped Juju to present you.”

Before Eudora could react, the next second, Amos held the back of her head and leaned forward, pulling her face to his lips.

“This is the kiss that you’re giving me on behalf of our daughter!”

Eudora was speechless.
