Chapter 356 Only You
The cafeteria in the Everpeace Group was built just three years ago.
At that time, Eudora was still far away in Italy. Whenever Amos missed her, he would pretend to be a passer-by and come here secretly to have a meal.
He would imagine how happy she would be if she could see that the place had become so beautiful.
At this moment, a middle-aged lady who was serving the cafeteria food, spoke.
“It’s you?”
Amos was stunned. He had seen this lady whenever he came here for a meal.
He loved the brussels sprouts salad that was made by this lady. It was particularly delicious. Whenever he ate it, he would remember that Eudora used to put brussels sprouts onto his plate deliberately after knowing that he did not have a preference for other kinds of food.
She was lovely and adorable.
“Would you still like to have the brussels sprouts salad?” the lady asked.
“Yes,” Amos nodded. The lady seemed to remember that Amos would ask for additional servings of the salad.
Therefore, she took a plate and served Amos a large portion right away. Eudora, who was next to him, said hurriedly, “Don’t eat too much. Why do you eat so many brussels sprouts? There is some grilled honey chicken there. It’s sweet. Let’s have some too!”
The lady explained hurriedly, “Miss, you may not know this, but he doesn’t…” Before she could even continue with her sentence, Amos had already nodded in agreement.
“Okay!”
The lady was stunned, and her gaze wandered between Amos and Eudora doubtfully. After a few seconds, she nodded with a smile and said, “Okay, okay!”
She gave Amos a custom-made dish according to Eudora’s request. Then, Eudora turned around to find a seat.
The lady smiled and asked Amos, “Are you not waiting for the girl whom you’ve been waiting for all this while? In fact, it’s better this way. We should always look ahead in life.”
Amos shook his head. “No, it’s always been her.”
The lady was stunned. She didn’t react until Amos had walked far away. Then, she smiled again and responded, “That’s great then!”
…
They brought the food to one of the tables and sat down across each other.
Although Amos had ordered the grilled honey chicken, it seemed that he preferred the brussels sprouts salad more.
Eudora couldn’t help but criticize, “Your life will be more bitter if you eat a lot of brussels sprouts. Have a taste of the grilled honey chicken. It’s very delicious!”
She then took a piece and put it at Amos’ lips.
Amos opened his mouth and took a bite. It was indeed sweet!
“It’s delicious.”
Eudora was so overjoyed that her eyes were curved, “I told you, the chicken tastes so much better.”
Amos nodded. “Yes, just like you.”
Women were generally very sensitive. When she heard this, she instantly became vigilant.
“If the grilled honey chicken is sweet like me, then who’s the brussels sprouts salad? Mr. Granger, you’d better tell me the truth. Did you like some other girl in the past? Are you especially fond of brussels sprouts because of this girl?”
Eudora seemed to have turned into a little unruly girl in an instant and started interrogating him.All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.
Amos nodded seriously, “Yes! I didn’t have much interest in food before. She told me that she likes to eat brussels sprouts salad, so I started to eat it too.”
Eudora pursed her lips tightly, and she could tell that Amos wasn’t lying to her. However, she didn’t know why she felt a little uneasy when he was being so frank.
It felt as though something was about to pop out of her heart. She recalled a phrase that she had seen on the Internet the day before.
Sour grapes!
She was jealous…
“Then… what kind of person is she?”
Amos thought for a moment and answered, “She is a very strong woman. She is the strongest woman I have ever seen. However, she is tender when with her lover and child.”
Because of this question, the Eudora in Amos’ memory gradually became vivid in his mind.
Amos curved his lips and confessed, “She’s the most special woman I’ve ever seen.”
Eudora, who was sitting across him, became even more jealous. Suddenly, she stuck out her fork and put it on Amos’s plate. She picked up all the salad from his plate and put it into her mouth.
“From now on, you are not allowed to eat brussels sprouts salad. Your favorite food is grilled honey chicken!”
Two different characters but they were both still so overbearing. Amos seemed to have come to a realization later and asked, “Eudora, are you…. jealous?”
Eudora pouted and swallowed the brussels sprouts salad. It was so bitter that it almost nauseated her.
“Did I? I’m just declaring my sovereignty. I don’t care who you used to be with; now you’re mine!” Eudora said overbearingly.
The woman made threatening gesture like a little tiger cub.
Eudora, who used to be considerate about everything and endured everything by herself, became a straightforward little cutie pie once she let her guard down.
Amos smiled and teased, “Silly.”
Eudora became even angrier, and she retorted, “Why are you scolding me? I didn’t even beat you up for mentioning another woman when you’re already with your current wife!”
Amos was speechless.
“Hmm? Do you still want to beat me up?
Eudora was not afraid at all. “Can’t I? In this world, women could get away with being violent toward men.”
Amos’ eyes darkened. She seemed to have really forgotten about the past. The violence between them was not just domestic violence.
With his Adam’s apple bobbing, he replied in a low voice, “You’re welcome to be violent toward me, but not for the time being.”
Eudora didn’t understand his words and she argued, “That depends on me!”
After that, she continued eating the brussels sprouts salad. Seeing that her little face scrunching up, Amos finally couldn’t bear it anymore and took back the bowl of salad from her.
“Silly, that girl is you!”
Eudora was stunned, “It’s me? You’re lying!”
She couldn’t believe it because she clearly had a sweet-tooth. How could she become a person who loved eating bitter food before she lost her memory?
Furthermore, she did not remember herself to be the way that Amos had described her to be.
“You’re the only woman to be with me. Who else would it be if not you?”
Eudora blushed, “Who knows? Didn’t the people outside say that you’ve had a few women since you came back from Country M eight years ago? They all either died or went mad, didn’t they?”
Amos burst into laughter, “Did you investigate me?”
He was really glad that this woman had investigated him.
In fact, Eudora was curious. She had always that Amos’ account of their relationship seemed rather one-sided. Therefore, she went online to search for it when she was bored.
As a result, she found two news reports.
She couldn’t help but ask, “Don’t you plan to explain to me about the two women?”
Amos was in a good mood. He curved his lips and asked, “Don’t you already know?”
“I have forgotten now! Tell me again!”
Amos had no choice but to answer her questions.
“I was the one who spread the news on purpose!”
Eudora didn’t understand, “Why would you do that?”
“For some reason, I couldn’t be intimate with women. Therefore, my competitor hired women to plot against me. In order to avoid future trouble, I told the public this on purpose!”
Eudora nodded, but soon, she was stunned again.
Eudora asked, “That’s not right. Why couldn’t you get intimate with women? But you and I…” They already had a child together. How could he say that he couldn’t get intimate with women then?
Eudora wondered in her heart.
Amos smiled faintly and replied, “Only you.”
