Chapter 283 I Won’t Have This Opportunity Again
In order to ease the atmosphere, Eudora George quickly found some riddles for everyone to guess. Juju managed to guess some of the easy ones while the harder ones were left to the adults to guess.
Eudora soon felt that Juju had lost interest. Therefore, in order to get her attention, she found some simpler ones for Juju to guess.NôvelDrama.Org owns all content.
While she was busy looking for riddles, she heard Kaylene Yoder sighing in front of her.
“The atmosphere here is so good today. Steven, you should have brought a girl with you.”
Steven Granger whined and said, “Mom, not now. There is no relation between a festival and a girlfriend.”
“Who said so? Back then, there was a saying that couples who share a kiss on Thanksgiving would live happily ever after for the rest of their lives!”
Eudora was a little amused. There were still people who believed in this superstition.
She was thinking of telling Amos Granger about what she had heard, but before she knew it, the man had already kissed her on her lips.
Eudora was speechless.
They were hidden in a corner. They could see what was happening outside but the people outside couldn’t see them. Eudora tried to push him away again and again but to no avail. In the end, she gave up.
She could only glare at him when he finally let her go.
“Why are you so superstitious?”
“I am very superstitious when it comes to anything related to you.”
Eudora had nothing to say. If Harley Louis were to find out about this, he would definitely yell at him, “Are you still the same Amos whom I once knew?”
Eudora kept on drinking as the night went on. Soon, she was a little tipsy. She licked her lips with her tongue as she thought about something.
As she about to head into the house to grab a glass of water, Amos had already pulled her back and pressed the tip of his nose against hers, “You’re seducing me.”
Eudora was stunned, “When did I do that?”
“Just now when you stuck your tongue out.”
Eudora was speechless again.
“President Granger, you have no self-control! I’m just feeling a little thirsty,” After saying that, she stared at Amos’s sexy lips and licked them with her tongue.
“Now I’m seducing you.”
Amos’ entire body froze when she licked him. He then tightened his grip on her.
Ever since they came back from their trip to the hot spring, Eudora had decided to maintain her celibacy. Amos wasn’t used to it. He had difficulties controlling himself and he was about to collapse.
Now, the slightest things were triggering him.
He suddenly let go of her, hugged her tightly in his arms, and whispered in her ear, “I want you tonight, can I?”
His voice was not loud, and it was a little husky, which caused Eudora’s ear to go numb. However, she deliberately played a little trick by shaking her head, turning around, and running away.
Later, the man dragged her back again. This time, he just held her in his arms and complained in a low voice.
“You naughty girl, do you know what this is called? It’s called domestic abuse.”
Eudora was speechless, “Did I abuse you?”
The man nodded, like a child who was eager for candy, “I’m already injured.”
If Eudora had her phone right now, she would have posted a query.
What if the tough husband suddenly acted coquettishly in love with her? She was very anxious for the line to connect because she could barely resist Amos anymore.
It turned out that she couldn’t resist in the end.
After getting back to their place, Amos coaxed her into bed and they made love that night.
…
In the middle of the night, Eudora was awakened by a noise. There were footsteps outside followed by a knock on the door.
“Something’s wrong with the Old Master.”
Amos sat up in an instant and began to put on his clothes. Eudora also got up in a hurry, thinking of the six months that the doctor told them. However, it had only been two months. How could something have happened?
Obviously, Amos was also confused, but he didn’t have time to care about this now. He immediately got up and left, “Stay here and take care of Juju. Be careful…”
As soon as he finished speaking, Juju was already standing outside the door with a worried look on her face.
“Daddy, I want to go with you to see Grandpa.”
Eudora hurried over and said, “Let her go!”
She couldn’t refuse to let Juju see her Grandpa just because she didn’t like him. That would be unfair to Juju. There was no need to impose her own adult grievances on children.
Amos knew her well, so he nodded and said, “Alright.”
After that, the three of them went downstairs and into the main room.
Because of the old man’s illness, all the servants in the main room were up at that moment. All the lights were switched on, lighting up the whole yard.
Especially the decoration, which were originally meant to celebrate Thanksgiving. Now, given the circumstances, it seemed particularly strange and out of place.
Eudora quickly looked away and went upstairs with Amos.
Harry Granger and his family were also there, and Bethany Hamilton held Vincent’s hand as they stood outside. When Bethany saw Amos, she sniffed and said, “Amos, you came just in time. Your father said that he has something to tell you. You should go in and listen to what he has to say!”
As soon as Bethany spoke those words, Harry’s face darkened immediately.
“Bethany, my brother is still in danger now. What does he have to say?”
Bethany shook her head, “That was his request. I have no idea what he wants to say.”
Amos glanced at Harry and said, “Didn’t you already get your funds for the amusement park, Uncle Harry? Isn’t that enough?”
Harry was speechless and Kaylene was unhappy, “Amos, how could you talk to your uncle like that?”
“That’s enough, Mom, Dad!” Steven finally said, “Now, Uncle is in danger. Stop going at each other’s throats!”
Then, he looked at Amos and said, “Amos, my parents are also worried about my uncle. I hope you don’t take it to heart.”
Amos didn’t want to talk to him about it anymore and he merely strode into the room.
In the Old Master’s bedroom, the doctor had just finished injecting him and he looked a little distressed.
“Your condition has worsened again. If you were to refuse treatment…”
“I won’t have much time left, I know. You may leave now.” The Old Master was very calm as though he had already accepted his fate.
The doctor couldn’t persuade him, so he had no choice but to leave.
After the doctor left, Amos walked over and stood by the Old Master’s bed, “I heard that you asked for me.”
Old Master Granger frowned and said, “Even at a time like this, are you not willing to acknowledge me as your father?”
Amos opened his mouth. In fact, it was not that he didn’t want to call him, but he had rarely addressed him as so, therefore he wasn’t used to it at that moment.
The Old Master sighed, “Forget it. Anyway, my days are numbered, so it doesn’t matter anymore. I called you here today because I wanted to talk to you about the will…”
Amos’s heart skipped a beat and he said subconsciously, “It’s getting late. You should rest!”
“Amos!” the Old Master said, “I thought that I still have a lot of time, but my condition is worsening. I could feel that I don’t have much time left. If I don’t talk about it now, I might not get the opportunity again…”
