One Night Stand With That Beggar

After Amos got home in the evening, he went to find Eudora as usual.

He happened to bump into Charlie, who was in the house that day. Charlie said, “Mr. Granger, Madam is in the yard!”

Although he was already used to looking for Eudora as soon as he returned home, he still felt a little embarrassed to show his attachment to his wife in front of his subordinates.

After all, he still had some dignity to preserve.

“I-I’m not looking for her!”

Charlie nodded straightforwardly and asked, “Oh, okay! Mr. Granger, what are you looking for then? I’ll help you.”

“No, thanks. I’m going upstairs to read.”

After that, he pretended to go upstairs.

He had only taken a few steps up the stairs before he stopped to look back. Charlie was still standing there.

Seeing that he stopped walking, Charlie asked, “Mr. Granger, what can I do for you?”

Amos furrowed his brow tightly and replied, “It’s nothing.”

After Amos left, Cindy couldn’t help but come over and pinch Charlie in the finger.

Puzzled, Charlie asked, “What’s wrong?”

“Mr. Granger was going to look for Madam just now, but he became embarrassed and changed his mind after you pointed it out.”

Charlie was mystified.

“Well, if he comes down later, don’t mess things up again. Just let him save face, okay?”

Charlie nodded and said, “Got it!”

It didn’t take more than three minutes for Amos to come down.

This time, Cindy pretended not to see him.

When Amos came down, he saw Charlie, who was about to speak but stopped on second thought.

So, he decided to make an excuse, “I’m going to get something from the car.”

“I’ll get it for you!”

Charlie approached him quickly while Amos blinked his eyes and said, “I can do it  myself!”

“Mr. Granger, let me…”

Cindy cast a sidelong glance at Charlie and said, “Ahem! Charlie, please help me move this. Mr. Granger, I’m sorry, but you might have to get those things by yourself!”

Amos shook his head and said, “It’s okay, I can do it myself!”

He didn’t dare to stay any longer. He went out right away after saying that.

Charlie stood there with a confused look on his face and asked Cindy, “What do you want to move? I’ll help you!”

Exasperated, Cindy replied, “Oh Lord! You really can’t read the room, can you?”

…

Eudora was in the garden with her new puppy, Cola. It was barking constantly, perhaps due to its insecurity from coming to a new environment.

Eudora took it out to the garden, and found many toys for it to play with.

It was just that Cola had no idea how to play with those toys at all. Therefore, Eudora tried to guide it.

However, Cola completely ignored her.

Amos saw Eudora bending over and playing with the little puppy when he came. Cola stood there, drooping its tail, seemingly unable to understand what Eudora was saying.

Eudora wore a ponytail and was doing her best to teach it patiently.

It was dusk. The sun shone in through the fence in the yard, accentuating the heart-warming scene of the touching moment between Eudora and Cola.

It reminded Amos of the days when Eudora had been taking care of Sugar Bun and Juju during their childhood.

Feeling moved, Amos hurriedly stepped forward.

Eudora sighed out of discouragement as Cola was still not cooperative.

“Fine, you have defeated me. I won’t force you to learn it anymore.”

After that, she was about to get up. Perhaps she had been lying on the ground for too long, she couldn’t stand firm and she almost fell down.

Fortunately, Amos held her from behind.

Amos asked anxiously, “Are you alright?”

Before Eudora could recover from the shock, she heard Amos’ voice and felt a surge of joy in her heart.

“When did you come back? Look at Cola!”

Amos was not in a mood to see a puppy. Instead, his full attention was focused on Eudora at the moment.

“Are you really okay?”

“I’m really fine. I’m not that fragile. If you keep worrying about me, I won’t even dare to come out in the future!”

Amos pinched her nose tenderly and said, “What a naughty girl!”

As a result, he got his finger covered with dust.

Only then did he notice that the puppy and her were both dirty.

Eudora stretched out her hand and wiped the dust off, saying, “I was too concentrated on playing with it just now. Do you remember that we used to have a dog in the past, and it was very skillful at playing games like catching the flying disc. Didn’t you like it very much?”

Amos was surprised, he asked, “Are you here to teach this puppy because I like it?”

Eudora suddenly felt a little shy and muttered, “It’s not all because of that…”

Before she could finish her sentence, Amos pulled her into his arms.

“Thank you, honey!”

Eudora pushed him away gently, “In fact, I did it because I was bored! Well, I’m going back to take a shower.”

“Wait, it’s still early. I’ll play with you.”

Eudora asked incredulously, “You, play with me?”

Amos was a neat freak, and the reason for it was probably related to his childhood experience. He had never liked to have contact with animals.

Back in the day, although their previous dog, Cola, was so adorable, he would at most touch it. However, he had never played with it before.

In the past, Cola had tried its best to suck up to him. As far as Eudora could remember, he had never played with a puppy.

“Yeah, is there any problem with that?”

As he was speaking, he took off his blazer. Then, he unbuttoned the top two buttons on his collar and rolled up his sleeves gracefully, showing half of his forearm.

“Let’s start with the frisbee, shall we?”

Eudora nodded. She watched as Amos bent down to pick up the frisbee and walked towards Cola.

Eudora spent half a day finally becoming a little more familiar with Cola. On the other hand, Amos was still a complete stranger to it.

Amos was the kind of person who looked domineering even when he wasn’t angry. As the heir of the Granger family, such an attitude was inculcated in him innately.

As he was walking forward, Cola subconsciously took a step back, starting to bark in fear.

Eudora looked at them with bated breath. Just as she was about to say something, Amos shook his head at her and said, “It’s fine, leave it to me.”

Eudora simply nodded and replied, “Okay, I’ll…”

Before her voice died away, Amos had already strode towards Cola with an aggressive look on his face.

Cola had reached the corner of the yard and it had nowhere to retreat. At the sight of its nervous look, Eudora thought that Amos was going to beat it up.

She had her heart in her mouth, and she got ready to stop him.

Unexpectedly, Amos squatted down in front of it.

“What are you afraid of? I won’t eat you!”

Although his voice did not sound comforting, his actions and tone were particularly gentle.

Eudora was astounded while Amos was forcing himself to smile brightly at Cola. He told the puppy, “In that case, you’re not afraid anymore, are you?”

However, Cola failed to appreciate his kindness at all. In response, it turned its head away from him awkwardly.

“Ha ha!”

Eudora couldn’t hold back her laughter.

Amos frowned and asked, “What’s wrong? Do I look funny?”
