One Night Stand With That Beggar

Eudora frowned. She had no clue what Kesha was blabbering on about.

However, it didn’t mean that whatever she did was null and voided just because she herself couldn’t remember.

“If we’re going to talk about freeloading off of the family, I think that you should be the one to be put in the spotlight. Did you even look for a job after you graduated? Where do you think you got all that money to buy your branded stuff from?”All rights © NôvelDrama.Org.

Did she really take her for a fool? She had only lost a portion of her memory, but she still remembered some of what had happened in the past!

Kesha did not expect that Eudora would expose her past like that, especially when it came to talking about her going about, squandering money.

She could almost see the dreaded day when Eudora would eventually tell everyone about her promiscuous past.

The thought made her whimper nervously. She bit her lip to contain herself.

Listening to their exchange, Steven decided that it was time for him to speak up, but he was swiftly stopped by Kesha, “Forget it…”

Pretending to be a good girl? Eudora scoffed in her mind.

Not a moment later, Felicia and Gordon came out to greet them after hearing the commotion outside.

Right as she laid her eyes on them both, Eudora instantly felt as though she had missed out a lot throughout the years.

In her memory, Felicia was still in her early forties. At that time, her family was rich and she had maintained her complexion well. Although she was always very hypocritical, she would still look warm and gentle.

Gordon was only a little older than Felicia, and he would always have the kind of temperament that belonged to a businessman.

But now, one of them was horary-haired while the other staggered every step…

Eudora was frozen shocked. She couldn’t seem to speak a word.

Felicia directed a happy look at Kesha, and then, she looked at Eudora in surprise.

Having realized that Gordon probably called her here, she quickly composed herself and smiled.

“Eudora! You’re back. Your father missed you terribly after all these years!”

Eudora nodded faintly as Gordon slowly approached her.

Compared with Felicia, Gordon was much sterner. When their eyes met, she was thrown back to the time when she had argued with him when he had asked her to marry Felix.

She opened her mouth, feeling as if she was supposed to say something, but closed it back up when no words came out.

Eventually, Amos stepped forward first and greeted, “Uncle Gordon.”

A look of pure horror made itself onto Gordon’s face. He started to back away from Amos immediately.

However, after taking two steps back, he seemed to be reminded of something and lunged forward, grabbing Amos’ arm.

“Give Eudora back to me!”

Amos was taken aback. He didn’t expect Gordon to make such a scene.

Eudora, who was standing next to him, hurried forward to defuse the situation, “I’m here, aren’t I?”

Gordon looked back at her. She smiled at him and started to say, “It’s me. I’m right here. I’m Eudora!”

However, Gordon merely shook his head again a moment later and shouted at Amos again, “Give Eudora back!”

Felicia hurriedly came up to her husband, grasped his arm, and said, “Gordon, you’re confused again. Look, isn’t Eudora here, right in front of you? Let the past stay in the past.”

However, Gordon was very stubborn. He was sure that Amos was the one who hurt Eudora. He refused to let go.

In the end, Kesha and Felicia guided Gordon into the house together.

Soon, only Eudora and Amos were left outside. The air was filled with tension.

Amos pursed his lips. He felt that the scene Gordon had caused just now must have made her doubt him. She must feel distrustful of him now.

Perhaps, he should come up with a reasonable explanation.

As he was contemplating, Eudora spoke.

“Didn’t you tell me that you haven’t done anything wrong? Why did my father attack you like that all of a sudden?”

Amos frowned, “Sorry, maybe I shouldn’t have come. Forget it, just go in. I’ll wait for you outside.”

After that, Amos turned away and walked towards the car.

Eudora stood where she was, her steps a little hesitant as she walked into the house slowly. In the room came the voices of Kesha and Felicia. She could also hear Gordon, who kept shouting her name.

Eventually, Eudora managed to reach them.

Amos sat in the car, watching as Eudora slowly disappeared from his sight. It made his heart thump painfully against his chest. It felt as though he was watching her leaving him with every step she took.

Amos let out a large breath, trying to get the unease out of his chest.

Then, he lit a cigarette.

He watched as the smoke from the cigar swirled around him as it gradually suppressed the daunting feeling he had in his heart.

…

In the room, Gordon kept looking everywhere for Eudora.

Kesha felt nothing but contempt as she watched her father work himself into such a state, “Dad, I’m also your daughter. Why have you never looked for me? What’s so good about Eudora? Why do you always look for her?”

Eudora heard this as she stepped in from outside.

“It’s hard to explain what’s so good about me. Maybe you should ask instead, what’s good about yourself? Why doesn’t anyone like you?”

Kesha gritted her teeth in anger and shot back, “Eudora, enough with your nonsense! You’re responsible for Dad’s current state! You left with the family’s savings. Do you even know what kind of life Mom and Dad have been living all these years? If you hadn’t triggered Dad so many times, why would he have dementia?”

“Dad has dementia?” Eudora asked, taken aback.

Finally, Kesha had the upper hand now. She smirked at the confused expression on Eudora’s face.

“Isn’t it obvious? Can’t you tell?”

Eudora remembered that Gordon told her that he was sick when she received the call from him. When she saw him being haggard just now, she thought that he was just having a fit. She did not expect him to have dementia.

“Dad, I’m Eudora!” She proclaimed and hurried over to him.

Gordon was worn out from his yelling just now. He didn’t have the strength to make trouble anymore.

However, he was still unwilling to believe that she was Eudora. He had at least accepted her hand as he started to say, “Girl, don’t lie to me! You are a grown woman, Eudora is still a child. By the way, have you seen her? She has two braids and she wears a white dress. She’s very beautiful!”

Eudora’s eyes brimmed with tears as she choked out, “Dad…”

“Forget it. You must not know her. She must be mad since I’ve remarried. But I had no choice! If I hadn’t done that, who would be able to take care of her?”

Eudora’s heart was in turmoil. She didn’t know until now that the reason he had married Felicia was so that there was someone who could take care of her.
