Chapter 95 The Truth After The Drink
“It’s you!” Christopher Gellert put his hands into his trouser pockets. “I can’t believe you’re here, the competition is over already. Mr. Granger, are you that busy?”
Amos Granger frowned and said, “How dare you take her to a place like this! I’ll deal with you later!”
“Oh, are you going to deal with me?” Christopher sneered. “Someone would’ve taken her away if it weren’t for me! Do you even care about your girlfriend? Wouldn’t it be better to end such a relationship sooner? Please stop wasting her time.”
After saying that, he turned around and left.
Amos frowned. Eudora George was struggling in his arms. She fiddled around his chest with her hands.
“Why is there a wall here?” She asked.
Amos held her hands. “Stop it.”
Eudora finally saw his face clearly, and said, “Amos? You’re finally here!”
Amos was very displeased, “Why did you drink so much?”
However, Eudora did not answer his question. She shook her head and said, “Nope. How could Amos be here? He’s with his lifesaver now! I’m so sure of it!”
After saying this, Eudora pursed her lips as if she was going to cry any moment.
But instead, she sighed and raised the bottle in her hand. “Stop talking. C’mon! Let’s drink.”
“Eudora George!” Amos snatched the bottle in her hand and threw it on the ground. Upon seeing this, Eudora went mad all of a sudden, beating his chest frantically.
“You’re a bad guy. Give me back the wine. I want to drink!”
“You can’t drink!” Amos said angrily. Despite her endless struggles, he carried Eudora in his arms.
Someone happened to pass by. Upon seeing this, they came to say in a hurry, “It seems like this young lady doesn’t want to go with you.”
“Get away from me!” Amos roared, his expression was so fierce that the person got scared and scurried away.
Amos then placed Eudora on the passenger seat.
Eudora was probably frightened too. She kept struggling, “Let go of me, bad guy! My husband is Amos Granger. He would definitely come and save me!”
Hearing this statement of hers, Amos didn’t know how to react, he held onto her shoulders helplessly, “Look at me clearly, I am Amos Granger.”
“No, no way, you’re not Amos. He’s not as fierce as you. He treats me very well. You are a bad guy!”
Amos took a deep breath and said, “Fine, I’m a bad guy.”
Eudora stopped struggling when Amos had admitted to her that he was a bad guy. She reached her hand out to touch his face. “Although you’re a bad guy, you do look like him when you’re angry.”
The look in Eudora’s eyes when she said so was as if she was reminiscing something. Upon hearing this, Amos’ heart sank. He said, “Didn’t you just say that he treats you very well? Would he be angry too?”
“Why not? He used to be a fierce and bad guy. He wasn’t polite to others, but yet he wanted others to do things his way.”
Eudora kept accusing him of all the bad things he had done, to the extent where Amos couldn’t bear it anymore. It turned out that he was such a bad person in her eyes.
“Is he that bad?” Amos asked.
“Yeah. But, I liked him that way.” Eudora suddenly let out a sigh.
“Why?” Amos frowned.
“Because he only belonged to me at that time.”
Upon hearing her true thoughts, Amos’ heart ached. Subconsciously, he hugged her and said, “He still belongs to you now.”
“No, he has Wendy Liam now!” After she blurted, Eudora suddenly covered her mouth to say, “Hold on, Wendy saved his life. I can’t say this. I have to understand him. He has no choice. I… I’m sorry.”
Amos was even more upset when he saw Eudora like that.
“It’s okay!” Amos held her in his arms again. “I am the one who is supposed to apologize to you. I shouldn’t have let you endure all these. Eudora, I’m sorry…”
The woman in his arms did not give any response. Amos looked down at her, and found that she had fallen asleep.
She was sleeping soundly in his arms, like a lazy little kitten.
Amos suddenly felt like he was in bliss, and his heart was full. She was the woman who suited him the most, and the only woman he would give his all for.
Amos lowered his head to plant a kiss on her forehead. Then, he started the car engine and drove the car back home.
……
It was already late in the morning when Eudora woke up the next day.
Her body hurt with her every movement. She felt a massive headache as well.
She raised her hand to knock her head. Then, she sat up and looked around the room. She was in her house in Clearwater Bay. She was home.
However, wasn’t she drinking with Christopher and the others last night?
The wall clock struck ten, and it was only then when she realized, she was going to be late for work!
She got up from the bed immediately and went downstairs in a haste. Auntie Valerie handed her a bowl of soup to for her to sober up and said, “Sir asked me to cook it for you this morning. Please drink it now, it will help with your hangover.”
Eudora’s head really hurt a lot. Therefore, she drank the soup immediately.
Auntie Valerie however was murmuring, “Miss George, you really shouldn’t have drank so much. It’s bad for your health. Sir didn’t even sleep for the whole night because he had to take care of you. He was taking a shower and preparing for work when I arrived this morning. His eyes looked red from the exhaustion.”
Eudora frowned and asked, “Did he bring me back last night?”
“Who else could it be?” Auntie Valerie asked her back.
However, Eudora couldn’t remember anything at all. What exactly happened last night?
When she arrived at the company, Eudora went straight to find Christopher.
Christopher smiled and said, “Didn’t I give you a day off? Why are you back?”
“I’m fine. So I came back to work. Did you send me back last night?”Content bel0ngs to Nôvel(D)r/a/ma.Org.
Eudora asked this on purpose, she wanted to know what happened last night.
Christopher shook his head and said, “I was going to send you back. Unfortunately, Amos came and took you away.”
As expected, it was Amos who brought her back. “Umm…. you didn’t have a conflict with him, did you?” Eudora asked.
She was quite worried that they would get into an argument because of her.
Christopher looked at her deeply and said, “I don’t think you should be worrying about us getting into a conflict. You should worry about yourself first!”
“Me?” Eudora looked at herself. She said, “I’m fine!”
“Stop lying, why would you drink so much if you were really in a good mood? You seldom drink that much. So tell me the truth, are the both of you okay?” Christopher asked.
Eudora was dumbstruck, “Why would you ask? Our relationship is very stable!”
Upon hearing this, Christopher pretended to be disappointed and said, “That’s a pity. I thought you were going to break up with him, then I could finally take his place!”
Eudora was a little flustered, “… Don’t make fun of me! Whatever, I’m going to the construction site now.”
Christopher snorted, “Silly woman.”
Then, he caught up behind her and said, “I want to go too. Please wait for me.”
