One Night Stand With That Beggar

Exasperated, Eudora said, “Alright, stop the flattery. I’ll go up and take a look first!”

Shortly afterwards, a throng of people entered the company and went upstairs.This is from NôvelDrama.Org.

The security guard, who was new to the company, was left confused.

“Who is this? Is she Mr. Granger’s mother? She’s so young!”

…

A large group of people accompanied Eudora all the way to the president’s office. However, there was not a single person near his office. Everyone was too scared to stay there.

All the secretaries in the secretariat were alert and tense, as if they were facing their deaths soon.

Eudora was trying hard not to laugh at their exaggerated reactions.

She happened to bring quite a lot of desserts, therefore she left some of them at the secretariat.

“Feel free to have a taste!”

Everyone was still scared, so they said, “Thank you, we’re not hungry!”

Eudora thought for a moment that perhaps she should let Amos give them the desserts as a gift, hence she casually took them back.

Everyone watched as Eudora entered Amos’s office, and then waited with bated breath for the results.

“The last time Mrs. Granger came to appease President Granger was more than ten years ago. Now that so many years have passed, can she still do it effectively?”

“I think she can do it!”

“No, we have to send someone to have a look.”

“I’m not going!” Everyone retreated in unison as none of them wished to go forward.

In the end, a senior manager gazed at a secretary, who was on probation.

“You, go in and see what’s happening!”

The new secretary was overwhelmed with fear, saying, “Can I not go?”

“You can’t! If you don’t go, you won’t be able to pass your probation period!”

The secretary pouted in grievance and said, “I can’t lose this job, I…”

“Then, you should go!”

There was no other way, thus she had to bite the bullet and go in!

She stood by the door and eavesdropped, but she couldn’t hear anything. She turned around and waved at everyone to indicate that she could hear nothing.

They gave another suggestion, “Open the door, open it!”

The secretary made up her mind and opened the door slightly. She heard a thud and caught a glimpse of the scene inside before she started to run back.

Everybody surrounded her and asked, “What’s going on?”

The secretary gasped for breath and said intermittently with a sob.

She said intermittently with a sob, “She… she’s kneeling!”

Everyone was shocked as they asked, “What? President Granger is punishing Mrs. Granger to kneel down?”

Even Clint was stunned as he said in shock, “This is impossible!”

However, when he looked at the secretary’s expression, he found that she seemed to be telling the truth. He thought to himself, “No, I can’t let Mrs. Granger suffer alone in the room, can I?”

If he did so, Anya would not spare him if she found out about the matter.

Clint clenched his fists and gritted his teeth.

“I’ll go and check the situation out!”

Hearing that, they all plucked up the courage and followed Clint.

“Mrs. Granger came here for us. We shouldn’t let her get into trouble with President Granger because of our selfishness. We should stand by her side. Let’s go in together!”

After that, Clint took the lead to poke his head around the door of Amos’s office.

Then, everyone was dumbfounded by the scene in front of them.

Someone indeed had knelt down, but it wasn’t Eudora, but Amos instead.

He was kneeling in front of Eudora, helping her to fasten her shoelaces.

“Remember to tie your shoelaces well so that you won’t stumble and fall down while you’re walking.”

His voice sounded so sweet and tender. He also seemed thrilled at Eudora’s arrival, which contrasted greatly to his demeanor before she had come to the company.

All of them stared disbelievingly at him.

In the next second, Amos had already stood up and acted cute in front of Eudora.

“Feed me a piece of it.”

At a loss for words, Eudora said, “Can’t you eat it yourself?”

“My hands are dirty, and it’ll taste better if you feed me.”

“Oh, gross!” thought everyone, listening to their loving conversation.

It turned out that Mr. Granger knew how to act like a spoiled child.

That was astonishing news to them.

Eudora picked up a piece of dessert and sent it to Amos’s mouth while saying, “Have a try! It’s freshly made. I don’t know if it’ll suit your tastes!”

“All the food you make is my cup of tea!”

Everyone was speechless for a moment.

Unfortunately, someone suddenly lost their balance and accidentally took a step back. The door was bumped open.

With a bang, the warm atmosphere in the room was interrupted. Amos cast a cold glance at the peepers.

His expression became so stern that he seemed like a different person.

The look in his eye made their blood run cold. They quickly said, “We’re sorry, we’ll leave right now!”

Eudora turned around with a smile and said to them, “Hi, guys. Don’t leave, there are plenty of desserts here. Come and have a try!”

Everyone immediately waved their hands and said, “There’s no need for that.”

“No worries. It’s rare for me to come to the company. I want to thank all of you for taking care of Amos all this while. So, please don’t stand on ceremony. Come and have a taste of these desserts!!”

They still didn’t dare to go forward, therefore Eudora turned to look at Amos.

“Why don’t you ask everyone to have a taste?”

Amos instantly changed his expression and answered her gently, “Okay!”

Then, he pulled a long face at once and spoke to them coldly.

“Come and eat them.”

Everyone was at a loss for words.

They felt like he was asking them to eat poison.

However, although they were complaining in their hearts, they didn’t dare to say their thoughts out loud.

They insisted, “There’s really no need for that! We’re quite full. President Granger, these are our proposals, we’ll put them on your desk. You may review it after you and Mrs. Granger have finished talking.”

Everyone quickly left the files and ran out.

Clint was the last one to leave, and he was stopped by Eudora.

“I haven’t seen Anya for a long time. Please tell her to stop by my house whenever she is free! I heard from Amos that you are having a problem with your stomach lately, hence I’ve specially made a set of plainer desserts. You can take these back and eat them with Anya.”

A chill ran down Clint’s spine just as he was about to take over the box, which was filled with desserts.

Daring not to look at Amos, he shook his head and said, “There’s no need for that. I am much better now!”

“Just take it! It was the least I could do. We have been friends for many years, so you don’t have to be too polite with us!”

Upon hearing that, Clint couldn’t help thinking, “I’m not being polite, just saving my own life! Oh my God, President Granger is so scary!”

“Well then, I’ll take it!”

“That’s right. Don’t forget to tell Anya to visit me!”

“Okay!” said Clint before he ran out in a haste.

Seeing him go out, Eudora commented on him, “Clint looks much more charming than he was a few years ago. His complexion also looks better. All of that must be Anya’s efforts, don’t you think so?”

Amos agreed with her and said, “Yes!”

Soon after that, he picked up another piece of dessert and passed it to Eudora while saying, “You should eat some too. I’ll feed you!”

Eudora didn’t stay in the office for too long before going back. She always felt that her arrival would affect everyone’s work in the company.

She still remembered those criticisms on the news last time, thus she tried not to stay any longer.

It was not until Eudora had left that Clint secretly picked up the box and brought it into Amos’s office.

“President Granger, I didn’t eat it at all. I saved it all for you!”

Amos glanced at the box and said, “What’s wrong? You don’t like them?”

“Of course not! I just think you have the most rights to eat it since they were made by Mrs. Granger.”

“Don’t flatter me! Since she has given them to you, then just take it. What’s your problem? Am I that frightening?”

Clint shook his head and replied, “No, it’s not that! I’ll bring them back then.”

“Okay!” said Amos. Then, he went silent for a while before he spoke again.

Then, he went silent for a while before he spoke again, “Well…”

Clint got nervous again in an instant as he thought something important was about to come up. To his surprise, Amos asked, “What kind of skincare products do you usually use?”

Clint was stumped by his question.
