One Night Stand With That Beggar

Chapter 379 Captured!



Soon, someone came in and told them the event had begun.

The main task of the group that Eudora was in was to provide drinks for the guests in the banquet hall. They carried trays and walked around in the banquet hall.

After being formally assigned to work, Eudora entered the banquet hall with the others.

There were already many people around before the banquet began.

Eudora looked around, but she did not see Tina. She thought that she might be able to find some clues if she were to bump into her.

However, on second thought, her absence made sense. Now that Christopher and Amos had been locked up by Tyler, Tina must have known all about it. Based on her love for Christopher, she would definitely make a scene.

Therefore, she must have been locked up as well.

It seemed that Eudora could only rely on herself!

After walking around for a bit, Eudora went out of the banquet hall and walked towards the backyard.

Just as she thought, the backyard of the Holt manor was even larger, and the security was also tighter.

After entering the backyard, Eudora advanced cautiously.

All of a sudden, a warning alarm went off behind her. She trembled.

She was so cautious, yet she was still discovered. She panicked and rushed directly into a garden in the backyard. She couldn’t care much about being discovered anymore.

The security guards followed after her. They halted and looked nervously at the garden.

After entering the garden, Eudora realized that no one was after her. She looked back doubtfully and noticed that everyone was looking at her nervously.

Eudora frowned. Since she had already sneaked in, she had to look around and get some clues before leaving the manor.

Even if she were to leave now, she would definitely be caught anyway.

Therefore, she went straight in.

The garden was very large and it was full of roses of various colors. This was the season of roses blossoming, hence the fragrance of flowers was everywhere. It was beautiful.

In Eudora’s memory, she had only seen so many beautiful roses when she was very young.

Just as she was admiring the flowers, a low and cold voice rang from behind her, “Who is it?”

Eudora raised her gaze and looked into a pair of solemn eyes. There was a coldness in his eyes, so cold that it seemed it could freeze people.

It was a man who seemed to be in his 40s or 50s. He was in a black suit, his being exuding an intimidating aura.

Tyler?

This was the first name that came into Eudora’s mind.

As expected, Eudora soon heard someone behind her calling him, “Mr. Holt.”

Tyler’s face darkened, “What are you doing? Did someone get in? Get rid of her right now!”

Eudora said hurriedly, “Mr. Holt, please listen to me. Please let go of Amos!”

Tyler was stunned, “Are you here for Amos? Who are you?”

“I…” Eudora paused. “I’m Amos’ wife!”

Tyler snorted, “So what? I had already warned him prior, but he refused to listen to me. He even tried to help Christopher kidnap my daughter. I had already shown him mercy by not calling the police.”

A chill went down Eudora’s spine. She had never expected that Christopher had thought about kidnapping Tina.

“I’m afraid that there must be some misunderstanding. Could you please let me see Amos?”

“I’m afraid I cannot do that!” Tyler then called the guard again, “Take her away. We’ll talk after the banquet is over.”

Just as Eudora was about to chase after him, Tyler’s face suddenly darkened, “Don’t move!!!”

Eudora was stunned. Following his gaze, she realized that she had stepped on a rose.

Tyler ran over hurriedly and a trace of panic showed on his face. He pushed Eudora away, carefully picked up the flower, and planted it back.

Eudora pursed her lips. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to…”

“Take her away!” He shouted.

Soon, several security guards came over and took Eudora away.

The security guards of the Holt family, especially the security guards in the backyard, were all strictly trained. Eudora’s mediocre martial arts skills were useless against them.

Did they not capture her just now because they were afraid of entering this garden?

They locked Eudora up in a small dark house in the backyard and took away her mobile phone for the whole day.This text is property of Nô/velD/rama.Org.

Eudora could hear people walking around outside from time to time. After listening to the conversations and movements, Eudora could fairly guess that she was now in the servants’ room.

After getting used to the situation, Eudora made up a plan, for there was a bed in this room.

Eudora thought that Tyler would certainly interrogate her since he had asked people to lock her up in here. Eudora waited until the next day, yet no one came to ask her anything.

When a servant came to deliver her meal, Eudora tried to get information about Tyler.

The servant’s face was full of impatience, “Why are you asking about this? The Old Master was very angry last night because Miss Tina had caused a scene last night. Stop poking your nose into the Holt’s family matters. Mind your own business and try to come out earlier to help us with our work.”

It seemed that this person did not know her identity. Eudora took the opportunity to ask.

“Do you know why Miss Tina was locked up then? Was it because of her secret marriage?”

The servant looked at her as though she was looking at a fool. “Are you crazy? Don’t let the Old Master hear you! Otherwise, he would not spare you!”

The servant then left.

Eudora didn’t have any appetite as she looked at the food.

What should she do? Now that she was locked up, she would not be able to help Amos and the others.

At this moment, another two servants walked past the room.

“The Old Master is so angry that he had skipped two meals. What should we do?”

“Yes, every time the Old Master is in a bad mood, he would want to eat that dish. Unfortunately, the cook who made that dish for him is not here recently. The temporary chefs who were recently hired couldn’t seem to make the dish the way he wants it.”

“Where is your master from?” Eudora asked hurriedly.

The two servants were stunned and looked at Eudora suspiciously.

Eudora said hurriedly, “I… I was locked up here because I made a small mistake.”

“Oh!” The two servants nodded, “Our Old Master is from Greene City, but when he was young, he lived in Rosaville City and loved the dishes there, especially the meat pie.”

There was a spark of joy in Eudora’s heart, “I’m from Rosaville City! I know how to make that dish! Why don’t you let me help? I could make that dish for you.”

The two servants looked at each other hesitantly.

“You’re not lying, are you? Where are you from? I haven’t seen you before!”

“I just came in a few days ago! I’m telling the truth. I’m really from Rosaville City and I know how to make that dish well! I don’t think that you would want the Old Master to punish you just because he has lost his appetite, right?”

With Eudora’s persuasion, the two of them finally gave in.

“Hold on, we’ll ask.”

After a while, the two of them came back with the woman who had delivered Eudora’s food in the morning.

“Madam Westin, this lady said that she could make the meat pie the way the Old Master likes it. Since the Old Master is already in such distress, shall we let her give it a try?”
