One Night Stand With That Beggar

Chapter 188 Juju’s Missing



Not long after Eudora got to her office and settled down, Anya came in.

Because of this case, she was temporarily arranged to work in the same office space with Eudora. When she saw Eudora, she handed over the lunch box in her hand and asked, “Do you want something to eat?”

Eudora saw at a glance that it was the same lunch box that Clint had prepared for her just now. She shook her head hurriedly and said, “No, thanks, I’ve already eaten!”

Only then did Anya slowly open it and take a few bites.

There was a knock on the door, and Clint said, “It’s time for the meeting!”

The two of them got up and packed swiftly before going out.

In the morning, Eudora took part in a meeting about the new project and made plans regarding the personnel.

By the time the meeting ended, it was already noon. Anya stretched herself and said, “Miss Eudora, you must try the food at our canteen. The food here is delicious.”

“Alright!” Eudora nodded. Just as she was about to go downstairs, she heard her cell phone ring. Casually, she said, “Anya, you go ahead first. I’ll be right there.”

“Alright, I’ll reserve a seat for you!” she said with a smile.

Eudora nodded. Once she saw that the caller was from Juju’s kindergarten, she quickly answered the phone.

“Miss…”

“Is this Naomi’s mother? Naomi suddenly disappeared…”

The single sentence knocked all the air out of Eudora. She couldn’t hear what the teacher said after that. She only knew that Juju was missing.

She had only one thought in her mind, which was Juju. After running downstairs as fast as she could, Eudora hurriedly took a taxi and rushed to school.

When Anya came out, she happened to meet Amos.

She hurriedly greeted, “Mr. Granger.”

“Hey!” Amos nodded in acknowledgement. He didn’t let her go nor did he say anything further, so Anya didn’t understand what he meant for a moment.

Clint sighed and thought, “He still needs me to do all these for him during the critical moments.”

“Where are you all headed for lunch?” Clint opened his mouth.

“The cafeteria!” Anya said, “The food in our canteen is more delicious than the restaurants near us, aren’t they? So I suggested to Miss Eudora and she agreed. I’m going there now to reserve a seat for her!”

Clint nodded, “You should go ahead then!”

When she left, Clint said, “How about we invite Miss George out for lunch?”

Amos shook his head and asked, “Is the food in our canteen really that good?”

Clint was shook to his core. Didn’t he swear that he would never dine in the canteen? Love was indeed a powerful thing!

However, he nodded hurriedly, “Yes, it’s really good.”

“Then let’s go to the canteen!” After saying that, Amos headed out.

In the canteen, the people who were eating quietly suddenly saw Amos appear at the canteen entrance. Instantly, the atmosphere buzzed with excitement.

“I must be seeing things! The president is actually here in the canteen to have lunch!”

“No, no, the sun must have risen from the west today!”

“Oh, will the president come and sit with me?”

The crowd seemed to be reminded by this. They hurriedly got up and left a single-seat next to them, waiting for the president to choose his seat.

In the next second, Amos moved towards Anya.

Anya was shocked. What travesty was this? What did she do? She felt everyone’s burning gaze behind her.

However, Amos was completely oblivious and was not conscious of this at all. He kept staring at the empty seat next to her.

Immediately, Clint understood and asked again, “Where is Miss George? Why are you alone?”

Anya shook her head. “I don’t know. We agreed to meet up here. But she hasn’t come down. I just called her, but she didn’t pick up…”

Amos frowned slightly. The next second, he turned around and headed out of the canteen.

Clint hurriedly called him, “President Granger, there is a rule in our company that states that no leftovers are allowed…”

“Take care of it for me!”

Clint did not know what to say.

Why did had to be such a bigmouth and mention it? Wasn’t he just looking for trouble? Thinking of this, he had no choice but to look at Anya, who was sitting opposite him. “For the sake of my free breakfast this morning, let’s eat together!”

Anya frowned, “Fine!”

After Amos went upstairs, he went straight to Eudora’s office, but there was no one in the room. However, Amos noticed that her bag and coat were still there.

If she had gone out, how could she not take her bag with her?

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that something was wrong. Amos hurriedly ordered someone to take a look at the surveillance videos, which showed that she had ran out of the office in a hurry. It seemed that something have happened.

Was it Juju?

Yes, in this world, the only person who could make her nervous was Juju, right?

Thinking of this, Amos hurriedly went downstairs and drove to Juju’s school.

When Amos arrived at the entrance of the kindergarten, he saw a familiar figure squatting on the ground outside the school, crying hysterically.

Amos’ heart sank at once. He hurried over and asked, “What’s wrong?”

At this time, Eudora was about to collapse, and she completely forgot that Amos was the last person she wanted to touch.

“Juju’s missing. Her teacher said that she disappeared after lunch!”

Amos was stunned. Thinking of the little girl, he felt a sudden pain in his heart. He had no time to think any further and hurriedly made a phone call to Harley.

“Are you in Rosaville City?”

“Yes!” Harley replied. He had just met a lovely lady today and was ready to ask her out for a drink.

“Juju was missing. Could you help me look around?”

Harley was stunned. “What? Juju’s missing?”

Although he only saw Juju once, he was quite fond of the little girl. Therefore, when he heard that she was missing, it also made him very anxious.

His date with the lovely lady was instantly thrown out the window. Harley hurried out and promised. “I’ll be right there.”

After hanging up, Amos glanced at Eudora and said, “Get in the car with me first. Harley will be here soon.”

Eudora was too upset earlier, but she had finally calmed down a little. She nodded and said, “Thank you.”

Amos felt a bitter taste in his heart as he replied, “You’re welcome.”

After a short while, they saw Harley’s car speeding towards them.

Before he could get out of the car, he said, “I looked through the nearby traffic monitors. but I couldn’t see Juju. I was afraid that I didn’t see it clearly, so I made another copy. Let’s find a place to have a look!”

“We could take a look at it in the school!” Eudora said hurriedly.Content is © by NôvelDrama.Org.

The three of them quickly entered the school, found a computer, and exported the video onto it.

Harley had recorded the moment before and after Juju’s disappearance, which was exactly at lunchtime. It was the busiest period of the day, and there were actually quite a lot of pedestrians on the road.

Eudora and Amos glued their eyes at the video, not daring to even blink, as if they would miss something if they did.

Harley stood behind them and watched the two heads which were nearly touching. He suddenly felt that it looked oddly harmonious.

However, this was not the time to think about these things. Harley quickly dismissed the idea and helped to look at the video.

The three of them stared, replayed, and stared at the screen again for about an hour or so, but they couldn’t find any clues. It seemed that Juju had just disappeared out of thin air.

Harley rubbed his eyes. “Maybe she didn’t come out at all? She might be still in school?”

Eudora shook her head. “That’s impossible. I’ve searched through the entire school. If Juju heard my voice, she would definitely come out!”

“That’s true.” Harley furrowed his eyebrows.

At this moment, Amos suddenly said, “Wait.”
