One Night Stand With That Beggar

Chapter 378 One Step At A Time



As Wesley slowly retold the events that had transpired for the past few years, the image of Amos sitting in a wheelchair appeared in Eudora’s mind.

This particular image would appear in her mind from time to time. This makes Wesley’s words credible.

“Mr. Granger treats you really well. We should not say anything as his subordinates. But I hope that in the future, no matter what decision you make, you would think about President Granger first.”

After that, Wesley left without Eudora could say anything else.

Eudora sat there for a long time. She then walked over and ate the food that Wesley had brought her.

Wesley was right. Amos had always treated her well, so she had to eat. She would then have the energy to save him.

It was already dark when Eudora finished eating. Clint and the rest also came back one after another. They had been busy all afternoon contacting all the forces available in Greene City, but to no avail.

Everyone was dejected.

“It’s really hard to find people in Greene City who are willing to go against the Holt family. Therefore, this solution might not work. However, on my way back, I heard that it is Tyler’s birthday tomorrow. So, they might have their guard down tomorrow. At that time, all of you will cover me and I will try to sneak in to find President Granger,” Clint said.

Everyone was shocked.

Eudora was also stunned. There was a rumor that Tyler cared a lot about his territory, especially the Holt Manor. Once someone was to break into the manor, the result would be very tragic.

It was rumored that there was someone who tried to sneak into the manor before, but he allegedly was never seen again.

“I’ll go!”

“I’ll go.”

Since it was very dangerous, they all hoped they could be the one to go. However, because they all wanted to save Amos, no one would have any objection to this decision,

“I’ll go!” Clint said. “I am proficient in martial arts skills. You know.”

“Assistant Zuckerberg!” Charlie shouted.

“Alright, that’s enough. I have been with Mr. Granger the longest, so I know him the best. When I go in, I might be able to find some clues that he had left behind. If I could pull this off successfully, I’m going to request permission from Mr. Granger to travel around the world. Don’t you guys try to take my credit!”

Since he had already said so, everyone had no choice but to agree.

After that, they gathered to make a plan. Then, they went to rest.

It was late at night, but Eudora could not sleep. She got up to drink some water.

She saw that the lights on the balcony were switched on. Eudora walked over and took a look. Clint was standing there, his eyes looking at the Holt Manor in the darkness.

When he heard her footsteps, he turned around and said, “Miss George, did I wake you up?”

Eudora shook her head, “No! I just came out for some water.”

The two of them were silent for a while. Eudora saw a big scar on Clint’s arm, as his sleeves were rolled up.

“What happened?” She asked hurriedly.

Clint looked indifferent, “It’s nothing much. I just got into an accident a long time ago when I went on a business trip with Mr. Granger!”

His words were vague, but it was obvious what had happened.

Those people were definitely protecting Amos. Clint’s injury was also the result of him trying to protect Amos.

Not only Clint, everyone inside had scars all over their bodies, too.

Perhaps, Wesley was right. It seemed that she had indulged too much in life.

All of a sudden, she said,

“I’ll take on tomorrow’s mission!”

Clint was stunned, then his face darkened, “No, that’s too dangerous. I wouldn’t be able to explain this to Mr. Granger.”

“I made this decision myself. You don’t have to explain it to him. By that time, I will talk to him myself!”

Eudora had already thought it through. She had begun to think about it ever since Clint suggested it in the afternoon.

“There will be a birthday party tomorrow. All the guests present must have an invitation card, so we wouldn’t be able to pretend to be their guests. We will be exposed easily. Apart from being guests, we had only one other option, which is pretending to be servants. You guys don’t look like servants at all. Furthermore, it is more likely that they have more female servants. So, I am the best suit for this mission.”

Eudora’s analysis was on point, but Clint still shook his head, “No, that cannot do! You are the person whom Mr. Granger vows to protect with his own life. How could I let you risk your life?”

Eudora frowned, “Since that’s the case, I would do the same for him too!”

“No, no, I will never agree to this!” Clint was firm in this stance. In the end, Eudora could only give up temporarily.

Worse comes to worst, she would just sneak out tomorrow.

Eudora woke up early the next day.

She quickly left after washing up. She deliberately locked the door from the inside and hid in the corner. After a while, she heard someone coming out.

Clint went to check her room and realized that the door was locked, so he thought that she was still in the room.

According to the plan, they would deliberately cause chaos at the gates of the Holt Manor while the Holt’s were welcoming the guests. Then, they would storm in while the Holt family’s security was busy keeping everything in order.

Eudora followed them from behind.

At this moment, there were already a lot of people at the gate of Holt Manor.

The Holt family’s status was no less than that of the Granger family in Rosaville City. It was Tyler’s birthday, so it was natural that many people came.

At this moment, she saw a limousine parked at the front gate. It seemed like an honored guest.

The butler, who was in charge of welcoming the guests, immediately came up to greet them.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

They greeted each other at the door, blocking half of the road. Clint and the others took the opportunity to walk over and pretended to quarrel with each other. They surrounded the door.

The Holt family’s security guard thought that someone was causing trouble and hurriedly came out to stop them.

Soon, they made a scene.

With this perfect opportunity, Eudora turned around and ran straight inside.

Clint was stunned, but it was too late. He suppressed his anxiety hurriedly, ready to sneak in.

However, the butler seemed to have noticed him.

“There, you, what are you doing?”

Clint had no choice but to stop.

After entering the hall, Eudora saw a group of servants who were in charge of arranging the banquet. In order to make this banquet a grand one, the Holt family had hired many part-time servants, and they were conducting a final training session.

She quickly walked over and blended herself into the group.

After that, they changed into the servants’ clothes.

When they were changing clothes, Eudora paid attention to the layout of the big mansion. Their current position was in an outer house, still far from the inner house. Eudora figured that Amos would probably be held at the back of the inner house if he really was locked up by Tyler.

However, she could not get into the inner mansion for the time being. She could only be resourceful and improvise.
