One Night Stand With That Beggar

When Eudora walked into the study room, Amos was frowning and he looked a little frustrated.

“What’s wrong?” Eudora walked in with a cup of tea in her hand.

Amos immediately straightened his back and sat down, saying, “Nothing’s up! How are you feeling today?”

“I’m fine!” Eudora shook her head and sat down beside Amos.

“What’s wrong with you? Why didn’t you discuss with me about such a big decision? Sugar Bun is indeed still young. There’s no hurry for him to get engaged!”

At the mention of Eddison, Amos frowned again.

“I’ve already made up my mind on this matter. Don’t try to persuade me!”

“Is it because of me?” Eudora asked. “If it is because of me, then there’s no need for that at all. I’m really fine.”

“No!” Amos shook his head. He explained, “This is for the company’s sake. I’ve selected the daughter of the Gellert family for him! I’ve seen that girl once. She’s a good girl, and she’s also Sugar Bun’s schoolmate. I’ve also checked her background. If everything goes smoothly, we can hold the wedding this month. The two of them can move out together after that!”

Stunned, Eudora said, “They’re only eighteen years old. How are they going to get married?”

“Eighteen is the legal age to get married abroad. I’ve already made arrangements for them to get their marriage license abroad.”

Eudora was completely taken aback. “Amos, what’s wrong with you?” she asked, still confused as to why Amos was acting so.

It seemed that in just one night, Amos had completely become someone whom she did not recognize.

“In the past, you said that it’s important to respect Naomi and Eddison. You also said that you would not give them pressure in the future. Why are you suddenly behaving like a stranger?”

Amos’s heart skipped a beat. Stranger?

He looked at Eudora’s somewhat puzzled eyes and felt devastated. However, how could he tell her that he just wanted her to enjoy her life with him while she was still healthy?

If he were to tell her that, she would definitely not agree!

It was fine with him if she called him selfish.

In any case, he wanted Sugar Bun to be the head of Valiant East. That was because he wanted to spend the rest of his time accompanying Eudora to travel to every corner of the world.

He had no idea if he would meet her again in his next life.

However, in his current life, he wanted to be with her happily.

“I’m tired!” Amos pursed his lips and said, “According to the Granger family’s tradition, Eddison should have taken charge of the Granger household and Valiant East at this age. Furthermore, I can help him now. I hope you can let me guide the children this time!”

“You can guide them, but can’t you not let them get married first?”

Eudora’s heart ached for her children as she continued, “He’s still young now. What if one day, he meets someone he really likes and hates us for this decision?”

Amos’s heart tightened. He replied, “If so, then let him hate me for it!”

“Amos!” Eudora still wanted to say something, but Amos had already turned his back to her.

“My conference call has started. You can go rest now! I’ll be with you later!”

Eudora paused and shouted, a little anger seeping into her tone, “Amos, you’re sleeping on the couch today!”

After that, she turned around and went out.

When the room was quiet, Amos heard a suppressed laughter from the other end of the phone.

“We’re sorry, President Granger. We did not mean to eavesdrop on purpose!”

Amos closed his eyes and said, “Forget about that moment immediately! Let’s start the meeting!”

…

Eudora had told him to sleep on the couch out of petty anger. After she washed up, she did not actually fall asleep.

She waited for the sound of footsteps outside.

It was not until the middle of the night that Amos walked in slowly.

Eudora laid down in a hurry, closed her eyes, and pretended to be asleep.

Amos walked straight to the bed. He looked at Eudora’s back and said in a low voice.

He looked at Eudora’s back and said in a low voice, “Why haven’t you slept yet?”

Eudora was speechless.

She turned around and looked at him angrily.

“Why do you ask me that when you already know the answer?”

Amos sighed and apologized, “I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have come back so late and made you wait for me for so long!”

“What do you mean by waiting for you? Don’t you know why I’m angry?”

Amos frowned. “Don’t get angry. Don’t you know that you are in poor health? What if something happens to you?” He tried to pacify her.

“Then, I’ll leave you behind and go to heaven alone.”

Before she could finish her sentence, Eudora’s lips were met with a warm kiss.

Amos pressed his lips against hers, forcing her to swallow her words back into her throat.

After a long time, he let go of her and held her tightly in his arms.

“Don’t say such things. You’re not allowed to leave me!”

His voice sounded normal, but as she listened carefully, she could hear a slight tremor.

At first, she still felt a little depressed, but at that moment, all of her anger had dissipated.

She could not be bothered to stay angry at him, therefore she could only sigh.

“I’m hungry!”

In the evening, due to that incident with Sugar Bun, the entire Granger family was not in the mood to eat. Truth be told, Eudora was not really hungry at the moment, but had just said so to relieve Amos’s strange mood.

As expected, Amos immediately stood up.

“What do you want to eat? I’ll make it for you!”

“Just some oatmeal will do! It’s more healthy!”

“Good girl!” Amos raised his lips.

…

The next day, when Eudora went downstairs early in the morning, she saw Sugar Bun waiting for her with grievances.

“Mom, did you try to persuade Dad?”

Eudora did not answer him directly, but asked him a question instead.

“Do you have anyone you like?”

Eddison was stunned as he thought that Eudora had read his mind.NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

He hurriedly shook his head, “No, I don’t!”

Eudora breathed a sigh of relief as she thought to herself, “It’s fortunate that he doesn’t have one. Perhaps he’ll fall in love with the daughter of the Gellert family.”

She added, “Actually, the daughter of the Gellert family is quite a nice girl. Why don’t you get to know her first? If you don’t like her, we can discuss more about this later!”

“I definitely won’t like her!” Eddison said firmly.

“That might not be the case!” Eudora said, “In fact, your father also wants to train you.”

“I won’t go!” Eddison’s rebellious self rose, and his voice became louder.

Amos came down from upstairs, and his face immediately turned cold upon seeing the scene.

“How can you talk to your mother like that? Apologize to her now!”

“I didn’t say anything wrong. Why should I apologize?”

That was probably the first time that there was such a big dispute in their family!

Eudora hurriedly consoled Amos, “Forget it, it’s okay. You two should stop quarreling!”

Amos repressed his anger and turned to Cindy. He told her, “I have invited someone to have dinner here tonight. Please prepare the food!”

“Yes, Mr. Granger!”

After Amos finished his words, he took another look at Sugar Bun.

“Let’s go. I have a project today. Come with me and have a look.”

Eudora hastily waved her hand at Sugar Bun, saying, “Go! Don’t argue with your father!”

Only then did Eddison reluctantly leave.

When they left, Naomi came down from the stairs with an ugly expression on her face.

She had just received a phone call from Emma. After they were investigated the day before, the company was shut down that morning!

It was said that some of the company’s relevant documents were lacking. Although Naomi felt that it was just a trivial matter, the other party had acted particularly petulant.

Naomi, who was in deep thought, almost bumped into Eudora as she came downstairs.

Fortunately, Eudora managed to dodge in time.

“What’s going on?”
