Chapter 126 Do You Think You’re The Only One In Pain?
As soon as Eudora George arrived at the gate of Clearwater Bay, she received a call from Clint Zuckerberg.
“Your sister had spoken some negative things about you to President Granger earlier in the evening. President Granger was very angry. You have to be alert! Also, President Granger’s hand is injured…”
Eudora was stunned for a moment, and then nodded immediately. “I understand, thank you.”
She was sincerely grateful to Clint, which made him a little embarrassed.
“I’m not doing this entirely because of you. I’ve been with President Granger for many years, and I’ve never seen him treat someone like this. I also hope that you won’t betray our President Granger’s love for you.”
Eudora gave a wry smile and hung up the phone.
After that, she slowly walked back.
When she got home, Aunt Valerie came up and said with a smile, “You’re back! What would you like to eat tonight?”
“There’s no need for that,” Eudora smiled and said, “I’ll give you the day off today. You can go back.”
Aunt Valerie wanted to say that this wasn’t necessary, but when she remembered that they had been quarreling with each other, she thought that perhaps Eudora wanted to personally cook for him.
Immediately, she laughed and said, “I’ll go back first then! The ingredients are all in the refrigerator. Everything has been prepared.”
“Alright!” Eudora was not in the mood to correct her. She then sent her off.
When Aunt Valerie left, she put down the bag in her hand and leaned on the sofa.
Amos arrived home when the sky had turned dark. As Clint had mentioned to her over the phone, he looked angry and his face was cold.
Eudora didn’t say a word and let him stand in front of her.
Then she raised her head, and the two of them looked at each other silently.
Amos only opened his mouth after about five minutes, but it seemed like half a century had passed.
“Have you been out doing business recently?”
Eudora was shocked. She thought that what Kesha George mentioned was the intimate relationship between her and Christopher Gellert. What did Amos mean?
Kesha really did tell him about the intimate relationship between her and Christopher, but Amos saw the real issue behind this incident.
Seeing that she did not speak, the little bit of hope in Amos’ heart dissipated. He could not help but lower his head to cup her chin and raise her head.
“Look at me and tell me, have you been out doing business recently?”
Amos had never done anything without any research. Since he asked, he must have investigated everything earlier.
Then, there was no need for her to defend herself.
Eudora nodded. “Yes!”
“Why?” Amos asked coldly. She didn’t even try to lie to him.
“Why?” Eudora smiled bitterly in her heart, because I wanted to help my friend and not be threatened. However, she knew in her heart that she could not mention Christopher in front of Amos now.
So she put all the blame on herself.
“Didn’t you already guess it? I want to leave you.”
He had expected her to give other reasons, so he felt extremely sad when he heard Eudora’s answer. He swore that he had never been so devastated before.
Even though he had experienced being imprisoned in the basement for half a year, he had never felt as broken as he was feeling now. It was as if a knife had stabbed his heart.
It was a complete wreck!
“Is that all?” he asked in a hoarse voice.
“Yes, that is all,” Eudora lowered her head.
The next second, he suddenly turned vicious, “Look at me, Eudora George! Look at me and tell me, do you want to leave me or do you want to help your lover? Answer me!”Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
Eudora’s heart skipped a beat, Amos had seen through it.
She hurriedly explained, “Christopher is just my friend…”
“Are you still trying to lie to me? If he was just an ordinary friend, why are you still defending him? I was thinking on the way here that you just wanted to leave me. Christopher must have helped you of his own accord. But in the end, why did you give me such an answer?”
Eudora was full of regret. “Amos, listen to my explanation. I really don’t care about Christopher’s business. It’s me…”
“It’s too late! You’ve successfully crossed the line. No one can save you now!”
“You’re being unreasonable!” Eudora was nervous and angry. “You are not qualified to care about me. You’re the one who forced me to stay. You knew that I didn’t want to, you should have known that this would happen.”
Upon hearing this, Amos’ eyes darkened.
The fury in his eyes made Eudora tremble. She opened her mouth and wanted to explain something, but as she wanted to speak, she stopped.
Then, Amos sneered. “Yes, you’re right. You’re just a woman I retained using some conditions. Who do you think you are?”
After that, he grabbed her hand and pressed her onto the sofa.
The next second, he had already mounted himself directly on top of her.
Eudora was shocked and hurriedly pushed him away, “Amos, don’t do this. Calm down.”
Unlike his previously gentle and considerate self, his actions now were very rough. He nudged her injured ribs several times. She felt so much pain that she burst into tears.
Without any foreplay, Eudora gasped, and tears of hurt rolled down from the corner of her eyes. She couldn’t help sobbing, “Amos, it hurts…”
He paused for a moment before he said coldly, “Do you think you’re the only one who’s in pain?”
Eudora was stunned and looked at him blankly. He sank down once again, but his movements eventually slowed down.
After that, Amos stood up and looked at her callously. “Remember your duty. If you dare to leave, I will not let Christopher go!”
Eudora smiled wryly. She got up and slowly put on her clothes.
She pretended not to see the bruises on her body and ignored the physical discomfort gnawing on her body. But in the end, she couldn’t help but sob on the sofa.
She didn’t know how they had made it to this point.
It was not until late that night that Amos slowly went downstairs and stood in front of the sofa to look at the woman in front of him.
Even though she was asleep, there were still tears on her face. Amos frowned and subconsciously wanted to hug her. Just like before, he wanted to hold her in his arms and kiss her tears away.
However, in the end, he gave up.
With a burst of agitation in his heart, he pulled the tie around his neck, pushed open the door and went out.
The next day, when Aunt Valerie came, she found Eudora sleeping on the sofa. She hurriedly woke her up. “Miss, what’s wrong? Why are you sleeping here?”
Eudora was stunned and looked around the house in a daze. Aunt Valerie said in a hurry, “Sir doesn’t seem to be at home.”
“Hmm,” Eudora said. “I’m fine. Please go ahead.”
Aunt Valerie wanted to say something else, but when she saw the bruises on Eudora’s body that couldn’t be covered, she gasped.
“It’s all Miss Liam’s fault. Ever since she appeared, there hasn’t been peace in this family,” she thought.
But as a servant, what could she say?
