One Night Stand With That Beggar

Amos shook his head and said, “No! I’m just concerned whether your hands hurt or not.”

Eudora was lost for words.

“It doesn’t. In fact, it won’t hurt if I hit you another few more times!”

“Then do as you wish! I don’t feel pain either!”

Eudora was speechless.

She suddenly felt as though she had no way to deal with Amos. She couldn’t even get mad at him!

The next second, Amos reached out and hugged her, asking, “Did your anger subside?”

Eudora found herself utterly silent.

She had finally met a formidable match!

Though…

“What should Naomi do? It’ll be fine if Benedict gets better, but what if his situation worsens? If something happens to him in the future, how would we be able to face Thea and Harley?”

Amos pulled her into his arms and comforted her, “Let the children handle it by themselves. Didn’t you say that you wanted to watch more short videos? Recently, the company has invested in a short video project. I’ve made the necessary arrangements for you, so you can go take a look and see if there’s anything you enjoy!”

Eudora looked curious and tempted, “So this is what you’ve been busy with lately?”

As she spoke, the short video page had already been opened on her phone. It had a cool promotion page, accompanied by some melodious music.

In fact, it was quite similar to the short videos Eudora had seen before. Though, this was much more creative and attractive.

She clicked into a short video, only to see a young teenager break-dancing, his back facing the camera.

He looked very handsome and cool!

Eudora’s eyes lit up from the excitement as she exclaimed, “Is he an artist from your company? He looks pretty good!”

Amos smirked, “Do you like him?”

Eudora laughed approvingly, “He’s not bad! However, I like you more!”

That was pretty timely and smart of her!

The corners of Amos’s lips curled up again. The next second, Eudora let out another cry of surprise, “Why are none of these people looking at the camera?”

Amos glanced at her and grinned, “Maybe if you take a good look, he’ll decide to turn around!”

Eudora nodded thoughtfully, “I see. I guess it’s the trend nowadays for people to act mysteriously and not reveal their faces to the camera. Maybe he can do a face-reveal when he has more fans!”

Amos mumbled, “He won’t have too many fans…”

Eudora was stunned and asked, “What did you say?”

“It’s nothing!”

Before she could finish, the person in question suddenly turned around. Eudora’s face was full of shock as she gasped, “Why does this person look so familiar!”

The next second, she looked at Amos’s side profile and covered her mouth in realization.

“It’s you! You actually…”

Amos was a little upset when he saw how she was trying to hold back her laughter. He grumbled, “Isn’t he handsome? You said just now that he’s very handsome!”

“He is very handsome, but I…” Now, Eudora just felt like laughing.

She really did not expect someone like Amos to dance!

“Seriously though, when did you learn how to dance?”

Amos pursed his lips and snorted, “I’m not telling you!”

How arrogant! Eudora turned around and pouted, “I’m getting angry!”

“Just a few days ago! I noticed some people learning to dance in the company, so I picked it up after watching them!”

It couldn’t be denied that most, if not everyone from the Granger family was crazy talented. They could already dance like a pro just by observing how others danced!

After scrolling through a few videos, Eudora finally found another problem.

“Why are you the only one in all these videos? What about others?”

Amos heard what she said. He could not help but grab her and push her down on the sofa, climbing on top of her.

“How many people do you want to watch? Am I not enough?”

Eudora was speechless.

“Please don’t tell me that you are the only one on this platform! Did your whole department make this just for me to watch?”

Amos shook his head and chuckled, “Of course not. It’s just that this is the only function for the phones in our household! This is… a custom-made version exclusively for Mrs. Granger!”

Eudora was speechless again.

Amos was seriously boiling in jealousy every day! When would he stop?

…

At the same time, Nelson stood by the bed in his office while looking at the lights outside. He was rooted to the ground, not moving for quite some time.

The clock on the wall slowly pointed to 11 o’clock. At that very moment, Richard could not help but remind him.

“Sir, I’ve given you the minutes that you’ve requested. Would you like to have a look?”

Nelson frowned, “Okay!”

Richard was about to break down as he complained, “That’s exactly what you said three hours ago.”

Nelson turned around and snapped, “You can go back first. I’ll let you know my decision once I’ve taken a look at it.”

Richard nodded enthusiastically, “Okay!”

Just two steps later, Nelson stopped him again.

“You’d better not go back. We haven’t had a drink together in ages. Let’s go and get drunk!”NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

Richard pursed his lips and asked, “Are you sure you did not fall in love?”

Nelson’s foot paused in mid-air before he casually continued walking as though nothing had happened, “No, I did not!”

“If you didn’t fall in love with her, you would not have been so absent-minded for such a long time! I remember that when we were abroad, the hardships we had experienced were a hundred times more difficult than what we’re facing now.”

“There were a few times when I wanted to give up. You were the one who told me that as long as we were determined, we would definitely succeed!”

“Since you are a determined man, why are you absent-minded over such a small matter?”

Nelson sighed. He was speechless when faced with Richard’s questioning.

“Yes, I admit that I’ve lost my composure! Forget it, I don’t want to drink anymore. You can go back first. I’ll get some rest on my own, and everything will be better tomorrow!”

After Richard left, Nelson sat in a chair and closed his eyes. He started dreaming.

In the vast plains, two children were running with all their might. The sound of their sputtered breaths could be heard since they were tired and afraid.

Behind them, a ferocious wolf was chasing after them. If they relaxed even the slightest, the wolf behind them would gobble them up.

Some distance later, a flock of domestic chickens were instantaneously devoured by the wolf as it resumed chasing them.

The two children were extremely frightened. All they could do was to run for their lives!

A while later, Nelson was startled awake from his dream. He stared into the night sky and was unable to calm down even after a long time.

Richard was right. He was being too emotional.

He came back with a purpose, so why did he put himself in such a situation?

Just then, the phone on the table rang. Nelson picked it up to take a look, realizing that it was a message from Naomi.

“Are you all right?”

Nelson had an urge to toss his phone away. After giving it a moment’s thought, he typed out a reply and sent it to her.

“I miss you!”

He quickly sent it to her before he could regret doing so.

Naomi, on the other hand, was so shocked by these three words that she could not sleep. It was the first time that Nelson had spoken to her in such a straightforward manner.

Although it was just three simple words, it tugged at her heartstrings.

Naomi stared at the words, lost in thought. She had completely forgotten to reply to his message and kept staring at the message. Some time passed, and another message from Nelson arrived.

This time, it said, “I’m outside your house!”

Naomi got up from bed and walked to the window bare-footed. After parting open the blinds, she noticed a black car parked outside the gates to her house. Beside the car stood Nelson, waving casually at her.
