One Night Stand With That Beggar

After browsing through the surveillance records of every road, Amos finally found that familiar car.

The car drove to the slip road after leaving the hospital and went straight to the suburbs.

Once they had located the car from the footage, Amos and Harley hurried to catch up and finally found the car at a crossroad in the suburbs.

The car was parked there. They realized that it was a car that was about to be scrapped after closer inspection. All records of the car were erased, leaving nothing behind.

It seemed that their efforts had been in vain.

Harley was so pissed that he kicked the car door, “Sh*t!”

Amos frowned and looked ahead. There was a fork in the road in front of them, and there was no trace in each one of them. He didn’t know where that person had gone to.

All of a sudden, his heart throbbed. An indescribable sense of worry and heartache surged from his heart.

Amos frowned, “I can’t wait any longer. The more we wait, the more danger she will be in.”

“It’s my fault!” Harley gritted his teeth, “If I had known that Felix was such a person, I would have killed him in prison!”

Amos’ brows furrowed. “It’s not your fault, it’s mine. She’s my woman. I should have done it myself…”

His voice trailed off. A few seconds later, he started, “Let’s go! We’ll act separately. You take that path, and I’ll go there.”

Harley was stunned. The first thought that came to his mind was that this idea was too dangerous. However, when he looked at the expression on Amos’ face, he decided to hold his tongue.

At this critical moment, he clearly knew that Amos would definitely risk everything without hesitation even if there was a sea of flames in front of them, not to mention when Eudora’s condition was still uncertain.

“Okay!” Harley nodded, “Let’s get moving then!”

Each of them then took a path and rushed forward.

…

At the same time, in the shabby little house.

Eudora had been in a panic ever since she heard Felix’s call.

She was a woman, hence she knew the horror of the things that Felix had just described. Felix hated her to the core, therefore, he wanted to torture her.

Eudora pursed her lips and asked carefully, her palms drenched with cold sweat,

“Felix, do you still remember the time when you got ill?”

Felix paused for a moment, “Since you want to reminisce about the past with me, I guess I’ll just humor you for a bit. Anyway, the men whom I have called are yet to arrive.”

“I’m not going to reminisce about the past with you. I just want you to think about the way I had treated you in the past! I got married into the Meyer Family for three years and I had never done anything unforgiving to you or the Meyer Family. When you or your mother were sick, I tried my best to take care of you. Wouldn’t those offset everything?”

Felix frowned, “Oh, are you trying to bargain with me? You’d better give up! You treated us nicely at that time because you still needed to rely on me. Your family, who was nothing but a burden, needed to rely on me as well. Don’t regard your greediness as kindness to me. It’s so disgusting.”

Eudora pursed her lips, “It’s not what you think!”

“Pray tell, what is it then? Don’t tell me that you had done it willingly! I’m going to laugh my head off! How could such a black-hearted person like you be willing to do so? Fae is a kind person, yet she was still killed by you! You’ve even forgotten about her completely!”

He related it to Fae again. Eudora paused for a moment.

“I think that it’s necessary for me to explain the death of Fae. I still have to say it whether you are willing to believe it or not!”

Felix snickered, “I’d like to see what else you could argue about.”

Eudora thought for a moment and told him what she remembered, including the time she and Fae had sneaked out of the basement together. However, in order to save her, Fae was captured again in the end.

“I’m not lying. This is what had actually happened back then. It’s up to you whether to believe it or not. I’m very grateful to Fae! However, this is not a justifiable reason for you to frame me!”

Felix sneered, “Am I in the wrong? To put it bluntly, you killed Fae. Why didn’t you leave on your own? Why did you ask Fae to save you?”

Eudora was speechless.

At that time, if she had the capacity to choose, she would have definitely left. However, she was still so young at that time, and the circumstances were critical. She couldn’t remember what she was thinking back then.

How would she know the reason she did not leave? Perhaps, she didn’t have time to leave at all!

Felix roared, “Are you still going to deny the fact that you were the one who had killed Fae? It’s you! I’ll strangle you to death!”

He walked over and grasped Eudora’s neck.

Under the blurred lights, Eudora could almost see the ferocious look in his gaze. At that moment, she saw the scene in front of her clearly.

Eudora bit her lip. She would always feel grateful and guilt towards Fae. To be honest, at this moment, she would rather be strangled by Felix to death than to die in the hands of those people.

However, that would also mean that she was destined to leave Juju and Amos too.

She smiled with relief.

Felix let go of her quickly as though he had been scalded by her smile. After a moment of silence, he spoke again.

“You wanted me to strangle you to death so that it’s easier for you this way, didn’t you? Dream on! I won’t fall for your trap. You’d better enjoy the feast I had prepared for you!”

After that, he sat down and began to eat happily.

Only then did she have the opportunity to look at the place around her carefully. She couldn’t see her surroundings clearly just now, but now she could.

It was a very shabby house. The blazing sun was shining brightly outside, which proved that it was daytime.

The tiles on the roof were loose, and rays of sunlight shone through the gaps.

There was a pile of messy straw scattered on the ground. Her legs were tied up and she was lying on a bed.

Perhaps Felix had thought that she was still blind, so he didn’t tie her hands. Thinking of this, Eudora’s heart was filled with a glimmer of hope.

Perhaps she could think of a way to escape when Felix didn’t pay attention to her.Original content from NôvelDrama.Org.

At this moment, Felix put down the bottle that he was holding in his hand. He probably had drunk too much beer, thus he wanted to use the bathroom.

Eudora was right. After he got up, he opened the door and went out. From his footsteps, she could faintly guess that he was walking toward the back of the house.

She got up quickly and began to untie the rope on her feet.

The rope was not tied tightly. She untied it in a few seconds and then tip-toed out of bed.

She walked out of the door and looked around to make sure that there was no one around. Her heart was almost at her mouth. After making sure that Felix didn’t notice her, she ran toward the road ahead like a madwoman.
