One Night Stand With That Beggar

The person in charge didn’t know what exactly happened either, “It just started burning all of a sudden. Fortunately, the firemen arrived in no time, and they saved the young man in the room.”

The young man was sitting against the wall, and he looked extremely terrified. His life was hanging by a thread just now, it was no wonder that he was frightened.

A policeman came forward to ask him, “You were the last one to come out. What exactly happened?”

The young man shook his head, suddenly shouting loudly, “Someone, someone wants to kill me.”

Eudora George’s heart sank. “What? What did you see?”

“I saw someone throwing something at the window, and then it started to catch fire!”

Christopher Gellert was shocked. “Are you sure?”

The police immediately sealed the scene and began to look for traces. They began to inquire everyone who was present in detail, asking each of them if they had any grudges or conflicts with anyone.

Everyone shook their heads, indicating that there was nothing of that sort. When it was Christopher’s turn, Eudora had already turned around and ran out.

It must be Amos Granger, it must be him.

His voice was still reverberating in her mind. He said, “I won’t let him go!”

……

As soon as Amos’ car arrived at the gate of the company, a figure suddenly flashed out from the front.

The driver was startled, he stepped on the brakes immediately.

“It’s Miss George!”

Amos frowned when he saw the woman who suddenly ran to the front of the car. She was battered and her hair was in a mess. She was no longer that lazy little kitten, like she used to be in his memory.

Amos’ eyes darkened and he said, “Ignore her. Just keep driving.”

The driver was nervous. “But…”

“I said, keep driving!” Amos said, gnashing his teeth.

The driver nodded and started the engine. Unless she was an idiot, or else anyone would’ve backed away when they saw the car coming.

But there was really such a person in the world. She continued standing in front of the car even though she saw the car coming.

Seeing how the car was already less than 20 centimeters away from her, the driver couldn’t help but stop the car!

Amos’ nervous heart finally settled down, and anger surged in his heart all of a sudden. He pushed the door open and got off the car.

“Do you know what you’re doing?”

Eudora looked at Amos coldly. “It’s you. You asked someone to burn down our warehouse. Amos, why would you do this? I was the one who insisted on separating from you. If you want revenge, just do it on me, why did you have to involve other irrelevant people?”Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“So she came here for this huh?” He thought.

“Ha…” The man sneered and said, “So you ran all the way here just for Christopher?”

“Amos!” Eudora gnashed her teeth. “Why do we have to involve others when it’s clearly our problem? Even if Christopher never existed, did you think we would still be together? Stop lying to yourself! We had no future together from the moment you brought Wendy Liam back!”

“As I’ve said, there’s nothing between us!” Amos gnashed his teeth. “Why must you dwell on Wendy’s existence?”

Why would she?

Eudora put on a faint smile. “You don’t understand. In this world, no woman would accept the existence of another woman with their man. Amos, between her and me, you could only choose one!”

He could only choose one!

He had to repay his life benefactor.

But…

Before Amos finished his words, a car rushed over from behind him. Christopher got out of the car, pulling Eudora behind him. He looked at Amos warily.

“What are you trying to do?” Christopher questioned.

Amos looked at Christopher coldly and said, “This is between me and her.”

“The two of you have already separated, don’t you dare touch Eudora!”

Amos suddenly laughed. “Eudora, was this the irrelevant person you mentioned?” He almost believed her words.

Eudora frowned and hurriedly went to pull Amos. “Amos, it’s not what you think it is. It really has nothing to do with Christopher…”

“Don’t touch me!” Amos pushed her away. “I hate dirty women.”

A dirty woman!

Eudora’s heart skipped a beat. She just called her a dirty woman.

Christopher instinctively stretched out his arm to punch him, but he was pushed away by Amos.

“Security! Aren’t you guys going to take them away?”

Seeing this, the security guards at the door quickly gathered around to escort Eudora and Christopher out together.

When there were only the two of them left, Christopher panicked and asked, “Are you alright?”

Eudora shook her head, but her heart was blank.

“Why would you come here all of a sudden? Luckily I reached here on time! Did the matter today have something to do with Amos?”

Eudora paused, and shook her head subconsciously. “No.”

Christopher did not say anything else either.

After the duo left, Amos called Clint Zuckerberg. “The construction site of the warehouse was on fire. Do you know what’s going on?”

Clint nodded. “According to the news we’ve just received, the police are still investigating on it, and we don’t know what happened exactly yet!”

Amos nodded and said, “Keep an eye on this.”

“Okay!”

……

After returning to the apartment, Eudora couldn’t fall asleep. She was lying in bed, tossing and turning.

Her brain replayed the scene over and over again. When Amos watched her leave with Christopher, he looked as if he wanted to eat them alive.

After staying in bed till midnight, Eudora eventually sat up.

She suddenly felt that her future was filled with uncertainty. She didn’t know how to move forward.

She didn’t have a penny on her, in fact, she didn’t even have a place to go.

The night passed, and soon it was dawn.

The next day, Eudora received the notice of the final round of the design competition, and they were going to start the recording in the evening.

As soon as Eudora arrived at the company in the morning, Christopher said, “Aren’t you going for the recording in the evening? Don’t worry, I can handle the company alone!”

Eudora frowned, “Any progress regarding the warehouse?”

“They’re still investigating it. I’ll inform you immediately if there are any updates!” Christopher replied.

Eudora nodded, slightly opening her mouth. She wanted to say something, but she swallowed her words back eventually.

To this moment, she still couldn’t get herself to say that Amos might be the culprit behind this incident.

“The company might get busy in the evening, so you all should just stay put instead of coming to watch the competition. I’ll call to inform you when I have the results.”

“Okay!” Christopher nodded.

……

In the evening, at the recording hall.

After going through the rehearsal, Eudora returned to the backstage. She actually held great expectations for the competition. She had made her decision last night. If she didn’t want to drag Christopher into trouble, she would have to leave Everpeace Group.

But with her current capabilities, if she really wanted to leave Everpeace Group, or even Rosaville City, she must win the competition.

When she first participated in the competition, she remembered that the winner would be sponsored to go to the United States for further studies.

Coming to this thought, Eudora took a deep breath.

Someone outside suddenly shouted, “Miss George, someone is looking for you!”

Eudora was startled. “Did Christopher and the others not listen to her suggestion perhaps? Did they come eventually?”

With a helpless sigh, Eudora plastered on a smile, and went out.

The next second however, the smile on her face froze on her lower lip. The person who came was not Christopher, but Wendy Liam.

It seemed that her complexion had gotten better recently. She was no longer as pale as before, and she looked like an independent woman of some sort.

Seeing Eudora, Wendy took two quick steps forward to squeeze Eudora’s hand.

“Miss George, long time no see.”

Eudora furrowed her brows. “If you’re only here to say this, then I don’t think we have anything more to say to each other.”
