One Night Stand With That Beggar

Clint thought for a while before finally speaking.

“Are there some new projects that needed my attention?”

“No!” Amos shook his head.

After that, he asked again, “Just tell me if you are well-versed with them!”

Clint nodded shyly, “Of course I am! I like to browse the Internet when I have free time. Some internet slang would pop up every now and then. There are a few popular ones right now, like ‘Meme’, ‘Epic Fail’, ‘Well Played’ and so forth.

Amos was confused by the words that Clint was saying at this moment, and he seemed to recall what Eudora had said the night before.

“Has anyone ever told you that you are really old-fashioned?”

Amos, the old-fashioned man, felt insulted.

Coincidentally, Clint said, “Actually, internet slang is quite interesting. I could explain it to you if you are still unsure about it. For example, a meme refers to an image, text, or video that could be copied and modified over and over again. Some people would even copy and makes parodies and upload the videos on their Youtube channels.

Amos seemed completely lost.

He had never heard of this word all his life.

In fact, it seemed that there was a specific way to pronouncing this word.

“That doesn’t even make sense!” Amos said.

Clint smiled and said nothing.

After waiting for a long time, Amos said impatiently, “Meme…”

“Oh, well, we would usually share memes which are particularly interesting and relatable among each other. It is quite fun.”

Amos, the old-fashioned man, was speechless. These young people were really adept at social media!

Wait. No, he should have rephrased himself. After all, he was still a young man himself!

He adjusted his mood and finally said with a proud face, “I already knew all about it. I just wanted to see if the people around me are smart enough to keep up with the times!”

It was Clint’s turn to become speechless.

He was the boss, therefore, he was always right.

…

In the hotel.

Harley saw Thea lying in his arms with a flushed face when he woke up.

For the first time, a warm feeling rose in his heart.

He had always been a playboy. He even had one-night stands before. He did not do it very often, but come the next morning, they would always go their separate ways.

He had never thought that there would be a day where he would be defeated by a woman.

At this moment, he had an urge to get married.

He wanted to marry Thea and be with her forever.

The woman in his arms did not sleep very well because of the hangover. At this moment, she suddenly frowned and murmured, “Headache…”

Harley’s heart tightened. He got up hurriedly and changed his clothes and went out.

He was careless. He should have bought some painkillers for her last night.

Harley went straight to the pharmacy. He asked the staff repeatedly about the best painkiller they had in the pharmacy which would not leave any side effects. Then, he carefully chose one and paid for it.

The cashier asked him with a smile,

“Sir, are you buying this for your wife? Your wife is very lucky.”

Harley nodded and said, “Yes!” That word seemed particularly pleasing when he heard it from someone else.

Harley thought, “Would Thea take my surname after she marries me and become Mrs. Louis?”

Mrs. Louis!

What a beautiful addressing!

At this moment, he quickened his pace and went upstairs.

The door was opened, and he frowned. Didn’t he close the door just now?

When he pushed the door open and walked in, the person who had been lying on the big bed just now had disappeared. Harley rushed over. Thea and her clothes were all gone.

After searching around, he finally saw the note that she had left on the bedside table.

“I’m very satisfied with your service. Thank you. This is the money for you!”

Harley saw the 2, 000 dollars under the note, and his enthusiasm faded away instantly. In the end, there was only coldness left.

She had referred to him by his name last night, and she had said he was so sweetly too. She clearly knew that it was Harley sleeping with her!

However, why was she telling him that it was only a service?

She must be out of her mind! He was a policeman who served to eradicate anti-vice activities in the city. Did he inadvertently become a male escort now?

Harley was so angry that he tore up the money and note and threw them into the trash can.

Thea, you witch!

Harley rushed out of the door and went directly to a bar. He remembered that Thea would dress up as a different person at this place every single day, and he would tease her whenever he saw her. However, at this moment, he only thought that he was a fool.

A big joke!

He then called Amos, “Hey, come over to Midnight Bar for a drink!”

At this moment, Amos was playing with his phone on the sofa while Juju was laughing at the side. “Daddy, the last time I saw the headmaster, he was doing the same thing you are doing now! The only difference is that he had glasses on!”

Amos was speechless.

His phone suddenly rang, and Harley’s voice came from the other end of the call, “Are you alright?”

Harley was already tipsy and yelling through the phone.

“I didn’t lose her. I’m not drunk. I’m totally fine!”

Amos’ lips twitched. Drunkards were really bad liars. Why was he still saying things that he did not mean at this point?

“Wait for me there!”

Amos got up, took two steps forward, turned back, and said to Juju, “Daddy has some urgent matters to attend to outside. Take care of Mommy, alright? If Mommy asks when I had gone to, just tell her that Daddy is out with Uncle Louis!”

Juju was like a big girl. “Yes, I will tell Mommy about Daddy’s plans so she won’t be worried!”

…

When Amos arrived at the bar, Harley had almost passed out from having too much alcohol. Several beauties were leaning on him and calling him, “Dear.”

However, his body was curled up as though he was a poisonous snake.

Amos came to his senses and walked over to shoo the women away, “All of you, get out!”

Harley seemed to let out a sigh of relief and hugged Amos, “You came! Come, drink with me!”

Amos looked at Harley sincerely. “Did you argue with Thea? What happened?”Exclusive content © by Nô(v)el/Dr/ama.Org.

Harley rolled his eyes and said, “What Thea? Who is Thea? Who is a male escort? She must have thought too much!”

Amos nodded. “Did you sleep with her?”

He could feel his heart aching when he saw how sad Harley was. However, for some reason, he seemed to remember what Harley had said when he rescued him from the ruins.

It was like deja vu.

History seemed to always repeat itself.

Amos reached out and patted Harley on the shoulder, “Congratulations!”

Harley stared at him gloomily, “Are you even my best friend? I’m so miserable, yet you’re still congratulating me.”
