One Night Stand With That Beggar

Cindy had been taking care of Eudora at Clearwater Bay for almost ten years. Therefore, relatively speaking, she wasn’t really outgoing.

With so many men attracted to her and trying to please her all of a sudden, she suddenly became a little flustered.

“I… ”

Eudora stood behind her and poked her in the arm.

“It’s okay, just go ahead! Don’t worry, we’re all here!” Eudora hinted.

After that, she subconsciously looked towards Charlie again. It just so happened that he was looking at them too.

His expression was inscrutable, and he seemed very concerned.

Eudora felt a surge of joy in her heart. She knew that Charlie had some feelings towards Cindy.

To her, it was necessary to use this kind of tactic against unemotional men like him.

While Eudora was still thinking about it, Cindy had stretched her hand out to the random man.

“Sure! I’m not very good at it though.”

“It’s okay. I’m not really good at it either. We can learn from each other.”

Eudora was delighted to be a matchmaker, so she instantly ordered someone to play some music and put the lights on. Shortly afterwards, Cindy and the man began to dance in front of everyone.

Eudora looked at them for a while before she walked over to Amos on purpose.

“Hubby, don’t you think that Cindy and this executive in your company are a good match?”

Amos knew what Eudora was trying to do, so he was willing to play along with her.

“Well, they would make a good couple.”

“That’s great! Why don’t we let them hang out more often, so they can get married soon?”

Amos was stunned by her suggestion.

He thought that her actions would be too hasty.

Eudora gave Amos a wink to signal him, and he immediately understood.

“Oh, okay! I have no problem with that!”

“Very well. I’ll talk to Cindy about it later!”

After that, Eudora turned around and walked away. In actual fact, she wasn’t walking fast because she was paying attention to Charlie’s movements the whole time.

Unexpectedly, he failed to make a move even though he looked uneasy.

Eudora was silently counting to ten, and only then did Charlie catch up with her.

“Mrs. Granger!”

Eudora stopped and turned around with a grin.

“Yes?”

Charlie scratched his head, “Uh, Cindy…”

“What’s the matter with Cindy?” Eudora asked again.

After pausing for a moment, Charlie spoke, “Cindy told me about a type of flower a few days ago, and I’ve forgotten the name. You were the one who asked her to tell me about it, right? May I know the name?”

Eudora was speechless.

Gosh, what an unromantic man!

He deserved to be single forever! Eudora was cursing him in her mind.

With a snort, Eudora turned her head away, “I don’t remember. Ask her about it yourself!”

In the end, she couldn’t stand it anymore, so she turned back and asked him yet another question.Têxt © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Look at all the gentlemen here. I’ve asked Amos to pick them out specially. They are all cultured and accomplished. Which one do you think suits Cindy best?”

Charlie frowned and answered, “I can’t tell.”

“Really? It can’t be! Everyone who is sighted can tell! Look at that guy, he graduated from Hamsford University with a Masters in Economics, and that other guy over there, he graduated from Bourjay University with a PhD, and is currently the vice president of the company…”

Charlie looked at them for a while, then he turned his head away.

“Well, they’re all good. Anyone is fine, as long as Cindy likes him!”

Eudora was vexed.

She had intended to trigger him, but in the end, he was completely unruffled by her words!

Unbelievable!

She took a deep breath and said sarcastically, “That’s great! On behalf of Cindy, I would like to thank you for your wise words!”

As she finished, she walked away.

There was something in Charlie’s mind, but he chose not to say it throughout the whole conversation.

…

Meanwhile, while the party was in full swing, Naomi found an opportunity to sneak out.

She didn’t get to see Nelson for several days. She was extremely excited to finally meet him.

“How’s work recently? Is everything going well?”

Nelson nodded, “Yeah, everything is going smoothly. What about you? Did you miss me?”

Naomi blushed and lowered her head at once.

Nelson smiled faintly, thinking that she wouldn’t reply. However, she continued to speak.

However, she continued to speak, “Yes, I’ve missed you! Mom told me that we shouldn’t keep our feelings to ourselves.”

Nelson was a little surprised as he replied, “I missed you too!”

Then, they looked at each other and smiled sweetly.

Monique, who happened to pass by, saw the two of them focusing on each other under the streetlamp. There was a touch of disappointment in her smile.

The chauffeur asked in a low voice, “Miss Monique, where are you going next?”

Monique paused and said, “Get me back to the hotel. Ask Richard to come and see me.”

…

After Richard received the call, he rushed over to the hotel.

Unlike the previous time when Monique had dressed provocatively to meet Nelson, her outfit upon meeting Richard was rather proper. After Richard entered, she instantly asked him to take a seat.

“If I’m not wrong, you came to work for me together with Nelson, right?”

Truth be told, Richard had been a little worried when he was summoned to meet Monique. He anticipated that she was going to talk about Nelson.

Everything was happening as he expected.

He was immediately on his guard and nodded.

“Yes.”

“Well, are the two of you close?”

Richard took a deep breath in his heart.

Then, he replied, “Of course we are, we are just like brothers! Miss Monique, you have given the both of us a new lease of life. Therefore, I’m grateful to you too.”

Monique smiled, her beautiful face full of elegance.

Although Monique was in a superior position, she was actually quite young. In fact, she was only a few years older than Nelson. Moreover, she had always taken good care of her skin, thus she looked quite charming.

Many people knew that she used to be with a very powerful person. Everything that she owned was left for her by that person.

Any other information about her was completely unknown.

Richard was attracted to her for a split second, and Monique caught that glimmer of admiration just as she raised her eyes.

“What’s wrong? Do you have a crush on me?”

Richard’s heart skipped a beat. He hurriedly lowered his head.

He hurriedly lowered his head, “I’m sorry, Miss Monique. I dare not do so.”

Monique continued, “Is there even anything you guys dare not do? I’m sure you know better than me whether Nelson is really carrying out his task, or that he has fallen in love with Naomi.”

Richard quickly explained, “Of course he is trying to complete the task! There’s a bitter conflict between him and the Granger family. He will never forget about that!”

“Oh, really?” Monique curled her lips.

“I’m just afraid that he will get lost in love! I know everything about love. Love is really blind.”

Monique patted Richard on his shoulder and asked, “Since the both of you are like brothers, now that he is having some trouble with a woman, don’t you want to help him solve it?”

Richard was frightened, “Miss Monique, wh-what do you want me to do?”

“What do I want you to do? Nothing! However, according to our agreement, you know what will happen to him if he fails to complete the task in time! You two have been working for me for a few years now. Without my protection, do you think you’d still be alive by now?”

“Miss Monique, I’m sure that Nelson will complete his task. Is there anything else I can do for you?”

Monique smirked and said, “What kind of question is that? There’s only one month left, and there hasn’t been much progress. In addition, the Granger family doesn’t even accept him at all. What do you think you should do?”

After a long moment, Richard finally took the plunge and nodded.

“Miss Monique, I know what to do now. I’ll make some arrangements as soon as possible!”

Monique smirked, “Very well.”
