One Night Stand With That Beggar

Nelson and his mother, Tiffany, were sitting opposite each other in the living room in their house.

Tiffany had been sent to prison because of her past misdeeds when she had colluded with Harry.

She had gotten released upon completion of her sentence a few years ago.

However, they had not been in contact with each other and Nelson had only tracked her down now. Tiffany had not been leading a good life these few years and she looked much older than before.

She was a bit puzzled when she saw Nelson’s expression but stayed quiet.

Nelson tried to call her, “Mom…”

Tiffany trembled, and only then did she come to a realization. She said, “You are…”

“Mom, I’m Vincent!”

Tiffany stretched out her shivering hand and caressed Nelson’s face.

“Are you really Vincent? They all said that you had died and I was so sad!”

Nelson pursed his lips and said, “They’re right. ‘Vincent Granger’ is long gone. Starting ten years ago, I started living my life as ‘Nelson’.”

Tiffany nodded and said, “It’s fine, this is good too. My son has finally grown up!”

Nelson said again, “Mom, this is our new home. I’ve arranged a big room for you. I’ll take you to it.”

Tiffany shook her head and said, “There’s no rush! Now that you’re back, what’s your plan?”

Nelson was stunned as Tiffany showed a vicious look on her face which came out of her fury.

“The Granger family has made our lives miserable. Because of them, you were forced to leave your home when you were just a kid. We’ve been separated for so many years while they’ve all been living a happy life! How can I be satisfied? That’s so unfair, I can’t stand it!”

Nelson pursed his lips again and said, “Mom, don’t worry. I won’t let those who have hurt us get away with this so easily!”

Tiffany nodded and said, “That’s the spirit, Nelson! We must seek retribution against the Granger family!”

…

Meanwhile, Naomi sat in front of her desk and turned on her computer.

She accidentally dropped her mouse to the ground. She lowered her head and went to pick it up, and the medicine in her pocket fell to the ground.

She stretched her hand out to pick them up. She could not help but recall Nelson and the moment when they had been so close to each other. During that moment, both of them could vaguely feel each other’s breathing.

Ever since she had started practicing self defense since young, she had hardly been near any men except for her father, Master Clarke and Sugar Bun.

Thinking of this, her heart began to palpitate with excitement.

The door was suddenly pushed open by Eudora from the outside. She called out to Naomi in a low voice, “Naomi?”

Naomi felt a tremor of anxiety, and the medicine in her hand fell to the ground right in front of Eudora.

She hurriedly wanted to take it back but she was too slow. Eudora picked up the medicine and asked, “Naomi, was your nose bleeding again?”

Before Naomi could answer, Eudora had already rushed forward and helped her to the chair.

“Why didn’t you tell me that you’re sick? Stop working and come lie on the bed. I’ll call a doctor to check on you!”

Naomi pulled her and said, “I’ve seen a doctor. Didn’t you see that I’ve already taken the medicine? Don’t overreact, or else Dad will be worried too!”

Hearing that, Eudora finally stopped talking.

However, in the next instant, she grabbed Naomi’s hand again.

“Something’s wrong with this! Why did you go to the hospital? Don’t you hate going to the hospital the most? Who took you there?”

Naomi was rendered speechless.

How could she forget that Eudora used to be an architect? Looking into the details was her strength.

Eudora would always pay scrupulous attention to details.

Naomi quickly changed the topic of conversation and said, “Mom, I remembered something. Yesterday, I think I heard Dad coughing! Shouldn’t you go and take some medicine for him?”

Eudora rolled her eyes at her daughter and said, “Do you think I’m in my seventies or eighties? How dare you change the subject? Your father is still young. He is as hale and hearty as a vigorous boy, therefore he won’t get sick!”

Naomi once again was taken aback.

She thought to herself, “What should I do? Mom is too smart!”

As she was thinking of another solution, Cindy shouted outside, “Madam, Little master has called!”

Eudora replied immediately, “I’ll be right there!”

Turning around, she reminded Naomi, “I’ll come back to you later! Don’t think that I’d forget about this.”

After that, she went to answer Sugar Bun’s call happily.

Naomi let out a sigh of relief and quickly locked the door. Then, she went to wash up in haste before she turned off the lights, got on to bed and slept.

Eudora came back after she had answered the phone call, only to find that Naomi had fallen asleep. Hence, she dejectedly went to the study.

…

Amos was having a video conference in the study.

Seeing that, Eudora sat at one corner of the room for a while.

Unexpectedly, she soon fell asleep. After Amos had finished his video conference, he saw Eudora lying on the sofa, wearing rabbit pajamas and looking as cute as one as well.

Even after so many years, she was still the same as before in his eyes.

Amos walked towards her and reached out his hand gently. He was about to carry her to the bed when she woke up.

She briefly looked at him in confusion before becoming more alert and awake.

“Are you done with the meeting?”

Amos nodded and said, “Yes, I am. What’s the matter? Why were you in such a hurry to find me?”

Eudora pursed her lips and said, “Your precious daughter, Naomi, is in love! It’s true this time. I saw her bring back some medicine just now, and you know that she hates going to the hospital the most!”

To Naomi, whenever she had to go to the hospital, it meant that she needed to rest and could no longer practice self defense.

Most of the time, she would rather stoically bear the pain than go to the hospital because she was reluctant to rest.

Amos frowned as he was staggered by the news as well. However, when he noticed Eudora’s expression, he tried to speak in a casual way to soothe her anxiety.

“It’s alright. I’ve already sent Clint to investigate and the results will come out soon. You can be rest assured that I’ll protect our daughter well.”This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

Hearing that, she finally felt a little more at ease.

“Then… let’s sleep!”

Eudora got ready to stand up as she spoke, but Amos’s large hands had already wrapped around her a beat later.

“Let’s go to sleep.”

Eudora was bemused.

“I’m not that old. I can walk by myself.”

“I know, but I just want to hug you.”

Whenever Amos hugged her, he felt like he had the entire world in his hands.

Eudora was exasperated as she could only let him do what he wanted.

…

The next day, Amos received a report from Clint as soon as he arrived at the office.

“I’ve looked into Miss Naomi’s recent travel records and the company’s records. I’ve found that Miss hasn’t made contact with anyone recently! She’s either been meeting with clients outside or staying in the company to work.”

Amos read through the records carefully but he failed to find anything suspicious.

Could her crush be a client?

Amos fixed his eyes on the list of clients. However, the number of clients Naomi was currently taking on was a little large!

Amos instructed Clint, “Find out which client went out with Naomi yesterday afternoon.”

Clint shook his head and said, “Yesterday was supposed to be her day off! I doubt that she was meeting a client.”

Amos said helplessly, “Then, investigate her whereabouts yesterday afternoon and see where she went!”

Clint had a different opinion.

He could not help but ask, “President Granger, it’s normal for a girl to grow up and fall in love with someone. Is it necessary for you to blow things out of proportion?”

Amos cast a cold look at him and he immediately chickened out.

“I get it. This is an important issue, extremely important!”
