One Night Stand With That Beggar

Steven nodded and said, “Of course we care! Eudora, as I said before, we are a family!”

Eudora nodded, “You’re the one who said those words! Remember, family helps each other out.”

Steven thought that he had successfully fooled Eudora. He smiled sincerely, “Of course!”

“Alright, help me measure it then!” Eudora said.

Did these two people really think that she could be fooled? What a joke! How stupid she would be to fall for their tricks?

Steven was stunned. “There are workers who could measure it! I’ll call someone…”

“Didn’t you say that we’re family?” Eudora asked back. “I’m a strict person. I don’t trust anyone else apart from myself. If you hadn’t said that I’m your family, I would not have asked you for help. It seems that I’ve trusted you too much!”

Steven’s lips twitched. “Eudora, what are you talking about? Weren’t we going to measure the place? Let me do it!”

He then went forward and grabbed the laser-measuring instrument.

Eudora said hurriedly, “I don’t want to use that. We need measuring tape. Sometimes, even modern technology is not as good as the human’s eyes. We have to be professional and ethical for our designers!”

Steven was speechless. He then went and grabbed a measuring tape.

However, for a person who did not know how to use a measuring tape, it was torture for him. It was not difficult to pull it out, but he did not know how to retract it. If one was not careful enough, they could even hurt their fingers.

Steven had never done this before. He was already sweating profusely after a while.

However, Eudora refused to let him go at all.

She pointed to the tall bouncing tower and said, “I also need you to help me measure that.”

Steven had no choice but to get up again. The bouncing tower was specially designed for the amusement park. It was supposed to be installed the other day.

Eudora was only in charge of the design. The size had nothing to do with her. She had deliberately done that to scare Steven away!

They had just finished measuring the top part, and there was no safety equipment there at all. Steven was up there alone and he almost fell several times.

Although he was already an adult, he had always been pampered since he was young. He had never suffered like this before.

He even almost fell from the top when he was too nervous earlier. When he got down from the tower, his face was dark.

He forced himself to act gentle just now, but he could no longer keep up the facade.

Kesha was indignant, “Eudora, why are you doing this? Steven has never done such things before. You are doing this on purpose!”

Eudora thought of the pretentious face that Felicia used to make, and she said with a grievance,

“Kesha, how could you say that? I thought that you really treated me as a family, so you are willing to help me. Forget it, it’s my fault! My work here is done. I’ll leave first!”

“Eudora!” Steven stopped her. He had worked hard on this project. Wouldn’t his efforts be in vain if she were to leave now?

“Kesha is not sensible. Please don’t be angry at her. I’m fine. I just haven’t seen  Amos for a long time. I think that he may still be angry with me after what had happened last time. Perhaps, you could help me persuade him?”

Eudora chuckled in her heart. She did not expect that Steven would do all this just because of this matter.

She pretended to be indifferent and shook her head, “Amos is not that petty. He won’t blame you!”

“Eudora, I’m not kidding. Do you still remember that time when you accepted my gift on behalf of Amos?

Looking at Steven’s hopeful face, Eudora finally understood.

It seemed that his apology was fake all this while. He was really just trying to test her. Perhaps, they had heard rumors of her losing her memories, so they came to test to see if it were true.

Thinking of this, Eudora suddenly changed the subject.

“Oh, I seemed to have forgotten to do an important task just now. I haven’t measured the height of the adult’s bouncing tower yet. Why don’t you go up and help me measure it first?”

Steven’s face turned pale. “Eudora, could we do it on another day?”

“Kesha, why don’t you help me?”

Kesha was afraid of heights, so she couldn’t help out at all. Eudora had asked for her help deliberately.

The two of them were terrified of her, and they took a few steps back, “Ah, I just remembered that we still have some matters to attend to. We’ll be leaving first then!” After that, the two of them fled away.

Eudora stood there, laughing so hard that her stomach hurt.

How dare these two rookies plot against her?

Eudora began to measure all the data again after they left. Her words earlier weren’t exactly lies. She liked doing the measurements herself, and she preferred to do them all.

At this moment, the two people whom Eudora had scared away earlier were complaining outside with their teeth clenched.

“Kesha, you’re right. She’s really different from before. So, the matter has actually impacted their lives, hasn’t it? It’s just that they hide it well.”

Kesha nodded, “But we still don’t have any evidence to prove that Eudora really has lost her memories! Should we think of another way?”

Steven thought about Eudora’s weird ideas, and felt a chill run down his spine.

“Forget it, it wouldn’t affect us much whether she has lost her memories. The most important thing now is to pay attention to Amos’ actions. I always felt that he won’t let us go so easily.”

Kesha was indignant. She was just a woman, and she did not have any thoughts about the company’s affairs. The only thing that could make her happy was to see Eudora getting trampled upon by her. How could she be happy if she could not see Eudora suffer?

However, Steven was right. Now was not a good time. Felix had just been sent away. She’d better not act rashly so that she would not get into trouble.

“Okay!” Kesha nodded meekly.

After Eudora was done with her work, her phone rang.

As soon as she picked the phone up, she heard Amos’s anxious voice from the other end, “Eudora, where have you been?”

Eudora smiled and said, “I’m at the amusement park! Why…”

Before she could even finish her words, she could hear Amos gasping, “Stay there and protect yourself. I’ll pick you up right away.”

Eudora looked at the phone suspiciously. Was it that dangerous?

Amos arrived very quickly. As soon as he came over, he took her into his arms and hugged her tightly.

It felt as though her bones were going to crack from his sudden tight hug. She struggled in his embrace and pushed him away.

“I’m fine, aren’t I? Why are you so worried?”

Amos shook his head and looked around before saying, “Where are Steven and the others?”

Eudora suddenly smiled again when it came to Steven and the others, “I scared them away!”

Eudora told them what she had done to Steven, “They’re too timid. I scared them away.”

Amos looked at her helplessly. She had become very powerful now, and she could protect herself. However, she had become very innocent too.

He was really afraid that she would not know how to distinguish the good from the bad. However, it seemed that he was worried about nothing.

He felt a little relieved and asked again, “Did Christopher ask you to come here?”Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
