One Night Stand With That Beggar

A moment passed.

Monique asked, “What did you just say?”

Nelson turned around and answered, “Miss Monique, I know that you are a smart person. Of course, you were well aware that someone in the company was playing tricks in secret! However, just like what Mr. Westin had just said, because they were elders, and you didn’t have solid evidence, it was impossible for you to deal with them. Therefore, you took this opportunity to see how I would deal with them. So, Miss Monique, do you like the way I handled them?”

Rishard finally understood what they were talking about. He looked at Nelson in shock.

Monique showed a little admiration in her eyes, “Well done. I like that you have the courage to confront them face-to-face. It’s smart of you too to notice that they were acting strangely. This time, you’ve done a good job.”

Monique had always liked smart people. She couldn’t hide her admiration towards Nelson. She had initially thought that Nelson would be in a mess upon her arrival.

She initially thought that Nelson would either back down, or fight on till the end. If one of the scenarios had really happened, she would have taken the opportunity to get rid of him.

However, unexpectedly, he had settled the problem brilliantly.

She had not met such an excellent person in a long time.

Monique’s eyes swept over Nelson in appreciation.

“This time, since you’ve solved the problem nicely, I’ll forget about the compensation fees! However, I do have to remind you about the task. There’s not much time left. If you cannot complete your task within the given time, then that’s it.”

Nelson nodded and said, “I will definitely complete it!”

Monique opened her mouth. She was about to say that it wouldn’t matter if Nelson was unable to finish his task on time. However, seeing how determined Nelson was, she took back her words.

“Good!”

After Monique left, Richard stared at Nelson in surprise.

“Mr. Luther, when did you find out? How come I never knew about it?”

Nelson smiled faintly and said, “I guess, it’s just pure luck! If there’s nothing else, I’d like to get off work.”

Richard raised his eyebrows, “Are you going to meet Miss George?”

Nelson remained silent, but his face told everything!

Richard frowned again, “Regarding Miss Chilton…”

“Didn’t Miss Chilton ask us to complete the task as soon as possible?” replied Nelson.

Richard thought to himself, “Are you really going there to complete the task? Or are you just going to go on a date?”

Never mind, forget about it! Richard shut his mouth.

“It’s good that you know!”

Richard finally said.

He watched Nelson walk out the door, and let out a sigh.

…

Naomi received a call from Nelson as soon as she got off work.

“Are you free tonight? Let’s have dinner together!”

Naomi was dying to meet Nelson, but as she recalled what Amos said the day before, she let out a sigh.

“I… I have to go home for dinner.”

With a bouquet of flowers in his hand, Nelson froze.

When Nelson had passed by a flower shop a moment ago, he couldn’t resist the temptation and had bought Naomi a bouquet of flowers. To his disappointment, his flowers would have to go to waste.

“Are those your father’s instructions?”

Naomi was startled and shook her head hurriedly, “No, no, it’s because… It’s because my mom hasn’t been feeling well recently. Therefore, I have to be at home for dinner more often. Let me call you back when I’m free!”

“Okay!” answered Nelson.

Nelson knew that she was purposely hiding the truth from him, so he did not try to expose her.

After Naomi hung up, she looked at her phone, feeling upset.

“Why doesn’t Dad like Nelson at all? Nelson is actually a pretty good man!” she complained to herself.

While she was deep in her thoughts, her colleague pushed her arm and said, “Hey, someone’s looking for you!”

Naomi did not have to raise her head as she knew who it was. She was sure that it was Clint, who had specially come to remind her that it was time to go home.

“Okay,” she said. “I’ll be right out.”Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.

…

In the evening, Naomi was in a bad mood at the dining table. After taking a few bites, she pushed her plate away and said, “I’m full!”

Eudora looked at her curiously. “Are you not feeling well? Why are you eating so little?”

Naomi was not an ordinary girl with a small appetite. She exercised regularly, so she had a strong and healthy body. She ate more food than a normal girl usually would.

Amos watcher her actions

He said calmly, “It’s okay. Don’t worry about her.”

Then, he placed a piece of meat onto Eudora’s plate, “Come on, this is your favorite, eat more. You haven’t been feeling well recently.”

“Okay,” Eudora said. She then ate the small piece of meat.

It was indeed delicious.

Cindy had been working for them for a long time, so the food she prepared suited their tastes well.

Just as Eudora was thinking about it, Cindy came over and said, “Madam, the kitchen is cleaned. If there’s nothing else, I wish to go out for a while. Just leave the dishes here, and I’ll clean them when I come back.”

Eudora immediately smiled. “Are you going on a date with Charlie? Go, go! I can do the dishes!”

Cindy’s face suddenly turned red, “No! It’s just, since he’s nearby…”

“I understand! Look at the two of you. You two have been in love for so many years. Hurry up and get together. Look at Naomi and Sugar Bun, they are all grown up now, and yet the two of you are still not married! Tell Charlie, if he doesn’t make a move soon, I will arrange a blind date for you!”

“I don’t want a blind date!” Cindy said, as if she was faced with an enemy.

Eudora facepalmed, “Silly girl, I was just kidding! Why are you so naïve?”

No wonder Cindy had been practicing fighting since young. She was indeed a straightforward and honest woman!

“Forget it, you should go now!”

After Eudora finished speaking, Cindy turned around and left.

As soon as she got outside, she saw Charlie’s shadow. He was almost at the end of the street. She rushed forward and caught up with him. “Charlie, wait for me!”

Charlie stopped, feeling a little annoyed.

“Why are you here?”

“Didn’t you say that you’re going shopping? That’s why I told Mrs. Granger that I will be out for a while. I want to accompany you!”

“No need!” Charlie shook his head. “I can do it by myself.”

“It’s okay, since I’m already here, just let me accompany you! You men are not good at buying things. What if you buy something bad?”

Charlie frowned, “Cindy, I’ve told you many times! You don’t have to be so kind to me! You’re not young anymore. You’d better go and get married quickly!”

Cindy’s heart, which had initially been filled with joy and excitement, was suddenly shattered into pieces.

Truth be told, Eudora’s assumptions were completely wrong. They had never been in love with each other all these years, Cindy’s love had always been one-sided as Charlie had never liked her. Furthermore, ever since he found out that she liked him, he seemed to hate her even more.

Cindy let out a sigh. She then caught up with him again.

“It’s my freedom to be kind to anyone. It’s none of your business.”

Charlie scowled. “Then don’t follow me around, okay?”

“I’m not following you. I’m just walking along this path. I’ll go anywhere I want to! Do you think you’re the only one who can walk on this path?”

Charlie was speechless.

“Fine. It’s up to you!”

Cindy breathed a sigh of relief and followed him quickly.

After they arrived at the shopping mall, Charlie filled his basket with daily necessities as usual.

Cindy followed behind him and took out his items one-by-one, “This shampoo is not good. You’ve used it before, and it made you lose a lot of hair. Don’t you remember? And this, this isn’t good either. Didn’t you say that it smelled bad last time? I still remember! Buy this one. I’ve asked someone to try it, and it’s very suitable for men. It smells good too. Here, give it a smell!”

Charlie did not even bother to give it a sniff as he walked away.

Cindy put the things down in a hurry and chased after him again.
