One Night Stand With That Beggar

Eudora George brought meals to the hospital at noon.

Harley Louis was waiting on the bed. His eyes lit up immediately when he saw her.

He took over the food in her hand and murmured while eating. “Eudora, you’re finally here. I’m starving to death.”

This made her crack up. “If you’re really hungry, you should eat in the hospital!”

“Then I’d rather starve to death!”

Eudora was speechless. She had her head lowered when Harley suddenly asked her a question, “So, how are you and Amos lately?”

She did not expect Harley to ask her this. Quickly, she blurted, “We’re fine!”

“That’s good!” Harley smiled and said, “Don’t hurt your relationship just because of a despicable person.”

“Despicable?” Eudora looked at him helplessly. “Are you talking about Wendy Liam?”

“Who else could it be? She was throwing a tantrum again earlier in the morning. I admit that she’s pitiful, but she just wants Amos to marry her. What a despicable woman!”

“Does she know?” Eudora frowned.

Harley nodded at her, “Yes!”

After Harley finished his meal, Eudora went out with her things. She saw that Auntie Agnes was pushing Wendy for a walk into the garden.

When Wendy saw her, she said something to Auntie Agnes behind her, which made her push the wheelchair toward Eudora.

“Eudora, wait a minute!”

Ah. She finally stopped addressing her as Miss George. It no longer sound as disgusting as it was before.

Eudora took a deep breath and turned to face her, “Yes?”

Wendy pursed her lips, “I might have done a lot of bad things before, but I really like Amos.”

Eudora frowned and said curtly, “I’m not interested in listening to you saying all these.”

Wendy could apologize now, but Fae died at such a young age. Moreover, Eudora herself had also suffered for three years because of her snitching.

Eudora thought that she could let bygones be bygones, but when she thought about Fae’s death as well as the three years that she had lost, she just could not get over it.

“What else do you want?” Wendy shouted all of a sudden, “I have nothing left. I don’t have any relatives or children. No one except Amos will like me. What else do you want? I beg you, please give Amos to me…”

Her voice was very loud, which quickly attracted the attention of the patients who were walking downstairs.

Soon, everyone turned to look at them and started to whisper.

Wendy had achieved her goal. She wanted to exploit the public’s kindness to earn herself pity points.

Eudora was aware of what Wendy was trying to do. If it had been in the past, she might have given up for the sake of her freedom. But now, she would not do so anymore.

She would not give up, regardless it was for Fae, herself, or even for the child in her belly.

She would never let the bad woman in front of her get what she wanted.

Therefore, she answered in an even louder voice.

“Miss Liam, I know you are pitiful, but my husband and I really love each other. You couldn’t ask me to give you my husband just because you saved him, could you? What should I do? Have you thought about it?”Exclusive content from NôvelDrama.Org.

The public would always side with the wife, and in this situation, Wendy could only be counted as a mistress at best.

Those who were on Wendy’s side began to sympathize with Eudora.

“Please don’t let go of your husband. Who knows what this woman is thinking about.”

“That’s right! Your family must be rich. This woman must be after your family’s money!”

Eudora bowed courteously to the crowd. “Thank you, everyone. I’ll definitely pay more attention to it!”

Wendy was furious. However, since there were so many people at the scene, she couldn’t say anything. In the end, she had to leave the place in disgrace.

Eudora finally relaxed after Wendy left. She rubbed her lower abdomen and sighed.

She had thought that the arrival of the child was a blessing, but now it seemed that she might not be entirely right.

But, should she abort the child? However, after thinking for a long time, Eudora still couldn’t make up her mind.

…

At the same time, in Valiant East.

Clint Zuckerberg pushed the door open and came into the office. He reported the progress of the bus accident to Amos Granger.

“Some of the passengers on the bus were seriously injured. Valiant East has paid all their medical expenses, as well as their subsequent medical expenses and some mental loss compensation. Those who suffered minor injuries were also compensated. Fortunately, no one died.”

Amos nodded and suddenly asked, “Do we know the cause of the accident?”

“Yes!” Clint said. “The police station said that there was a defect on the bus itself, but Mr. Walker, the driver of the bus, came to me privately. He said that it was strange.”

Hearing this, Amos was stunned. “Where is Mr. Walker?”

“He’s outside. I’ll call him in right away.”

Clint turned around and went out. After a while, a middle-aged man in his forties came in. The middle-aged man was a little reserved. As soon as he came in, he lowered his head and did not dare to move.

Amos asked him to sit, but he didn’t dare to. He said that standing was fine for him.

Amos did not make things difficult for him. He said in a low voice, “Tell me what you said to Assistant Zuckerberg.”

The man pondered for a moment and said, “President Granger, the police said that the accident happened because the brakes of the bus failed. However, I was the only one who drove the bus and I would always check the brakes before driving every day. On the night before the accident, I left after having thoroughly checked the bus. So, I didn’t check it the next day. I didn’t know why the accident happened. I still can’t figure out why there was a malfunction when the bus had been parked there all night!”

He couldn’t figure it out, but Amos and Clint understood. It was obvious that someone had sabotaged the bus.

However, they didn’t know who did it!

“Where’s the surveillance footage?” Amos asked.

Clint looked embarrassed and said, “We haven’t found it yet.”

The culprit was very careful and meticulous. Amos nodded to Mr. Walker, “You should go back to work!”

Mr. Walker breathed a sigh of relief and strode out. He was terrified. He had always heard that President Granger was very intimidating, and now he finally understood. Even though Amos had spoken to him politely, he was still scared to death!

When he left, Amos looked at Clint again and said, “Find out who did this. Don’t get exposed.”

“Okay!” Clint replied.

Seeing that it was getting late, Amos stopped his work, “I’ll be heading home now. Call me if you need anything.”

Clint smiled cheekily. “President Granger, you look good these days. Is everything well with Miss George?”

Amos frowned and said, “It seems that I have to find someone for you. Otherwise, you’re bored and nosy. How about Anya Astor? Shall I introduce her to you?”

Anya was also Amos’ assistant. However, she had some personal matters to attend to recently, so Amos gave her a long vacation. She had not returned since.

Anya was a very capable woman. She had always been quite dominant and Clint was often pressured by her at work. Clint had always given in to her out of chivalry. When he heard Amos’ words, he immediately begged for mercy.

“President Granger, please spare me! I’m fine being a bachelor, thank you very much.”
