One Night Stand With That Beggar

No wonder she had such a big reaction last night. She must have seen Wendy.

Amos suddenly felt a little scared. If he hadn’t told the truth to Eudora last night, would he have lost her for good?

Amos thought of this and felt a burst of anger in his heart. “I said that I will handle my personal affairs. You have no rights to interfere with my life.”

“So what? I’m your father. How could this be a personal matter?”

The Old Master roared. Amos sneered,

“Did you say that you are my father? When I was alone in the States, when I was tortured, where were you? When my mother was almost dead, where were you?”

The Old Master’s face turned white. “I didn’t manage to perform my duty as a father in the past. But in the future, I hope I can…”

“It’s too late!” Amos snorted and went straight out.

…

Eudora had just finished her work and was about to go and have lunch with her colleagues. She stopped at the door when she saw Amos’ car.

The man leaned against the car door and smiled at her.

Eudora quickly went over. “Why are you here?”

“I’ll take you out for lunch!” Amos exclaimed.

“French food again?” Every time he wanted to treat her a meal, they would always eat something expensive. They never had local food.

“You don’t like it? Let’s have Japanese cuisine then,” Amos replied.

“No!” Eudora shook her head. “Since you’re treating me for a meal, you’ll listen to me today. We’ll go wherever I want to go!”

“Okay!” Amos nodded. “You decide.”

Eudora smiled. Her eyes sparkled and warmed his heart.

In fact, she never asked for much. He always felt relaxed and happy when he was with her.

Only after reaching their destination did Amos realise that Eudora had brought him to a buffet restaurant.

She sat down and said, “The soup here is really good. I used to come here alone. What do you want to eat? I’ll go and get it for you.”

She got up immediately.

Amos grabbed her arm and said, “I’ll get it for you!”

He got up instantly.

Amos attracted countless people’s attention without realizing it. Eudora pursed her lips and snickered. She knew that even she would be fascinated by him if she was in the crowd.

As she was thinking about it, his phone rang. Eudora picked it up and took a look at it. It was a message from W.

“Let’s have lunch together. I have prepared some of your favorite dishes.”

Eudora froze.

It was Wendy Liam.

Her hunch was right. Although Amos had reassured that Wendy was just his savior and she should not care too much…

She still felt a little uneasy when she saw her messages.

Just as she was still thinking about it, Amos was back.

He had some pork ribs and pasta that she liked very much. He put them beside her and asked, “What else do you want? I’ll get them!”

Eudora shook her head and wanted to tell him that he had a new message, but she couldn’t. She answered, “This is enough.”

“Okay, let’s eat then,” Amos replied.

He put the food into her favorite soup.

Eudora took a piece and put it into her mouth.

She sniffed when the spicy taste filled her mouth.

“Try it,” she said.

Amos nodded. Just as he was about to eat, his phone rang again.

Eudora saw the letter “W” on his phone screen. Amos took away his phone and frowned. “I’ll go out and answer the call.”Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Eudora nodded. After he went out, she lowered her head and continued to eat.

Eudora didn’t know what she had put in her mouth until Amos came back.

Amos said, “Wendy’s having another attack. I’m afraid I have to go there.”

“Oh!” Eudora whispered and nodded.

“Should I send you back first?” Amos asked.

“No, no!” Eudora smiled and said, “I haven’t eaten much yet. I’ll go back by myself later. Don’t worry about me.”

Amos lowered his head to kiss on Eudora’s forehead.

“Be careful when you go back. Let’s have dinner together.”

“Sure!” Eudora nodded. She watched him slowly disappear in front of her eyes.

She smiled bitterly and put down her fork.

She heard footsteps coming toward her. She thought that Amos came back. She looked up, excitedly, and saw Christopher’s face appear in front of her.

“What’s wrong? Why are you eating so much? Are you trying to gain weight?”

Christopher rarely said things like this. It looked like they were really getting closer.

Eudora pursed her lips. “Can’t I?”

“Of course you can! I was just wondering if you can share some with me!” He answered.

Eudora was speechless. “President Gellert, please stop with your acting!”

“What should I do? There are no more seats here!” Christopher replied wittingly.

Eudora looked around. She nodded and said, “Sit down!”

Christopher asked the waiter to bring him another set of utensils. Christopher took a look at the used plate and asked, “Was President Granger here?”

Eudora kept quiet. So did Christopher. He passed the used utensils to the waiter and began to dig in.

Christopher blurted out, “I didn’t expect you to have the same taste as I do. I also like the buffet here.”

“No way?” Eudora said with a smile, “President Gellert, but you come from such a powerful and influential family!”

Christopher mentioned to her in the past that he was also a person who was not welcomed at home, just like her. Eudora quickly apologized when she recalled that,

“I’m sorry.”

“What for?” Christopher said, “I did come from an influential family. But unfortunately I was abandoned by them! But it doesn’t matter, I am fine myself.”

“Great!” Eudora nodded. “We have to work hard then.”

“Okay, let’s work hard together.”

Eudora went back early after work. As soon as she got home, she went to the storage room and took out the kite. She thought that if Amos came back early, they could fly the kite together.

But, it fell apart as soon as she tried to hold it.

In the end, the sticks failed to hold the kite.

Eudora lost her enthusiasm. She threw it into the trash can and went back into the house.

Amos hadn’t come back yet, but Aunt Valerie had prepared dinner in advance. The two of them sat there and waited for a long time.

In the end, Eudora shouted, “Let’s eat!”

Aunt Valerie frowned. Just as she was about to speak, the phone rang.

“It must be from Sir!” Valerie said with a smile. She quickly took the phone and handed it to Eudora.

“Pick it up, quickly!”
