One Night Stand With That Beggar

Chapter 56 Illegitimate Child



“Amos Granger.” Eudora George thought.

Eudora George shook her head immediately.

“No! But thank you for your kindness,” Eudora replied.

There was indeed a deal between Amos and Eudora. However, the deal was only related to the Meyer family’s matter. Even after the Meyer family’s matter was settled, she did not want to rely on Amos. She wanted to be independent.

Eudora was satisfied even if this relationship would only last for a year.

What’s more, Amos got himself into trouble too.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

Both of them remained silent in the car when they were on their way back. After a long time, Christopher broke the silent. “Well, I guess my Second Brother and my stepmother will laugh at me now. But, I’m not afraid of this. I’ve been used to this since I was young. So you don’t have to worry about me.”

Eudora furrowed her brows. Christopher thought that she was still in a bad mood. Therefore, he continued,

“You have a good foundation. You can have greater achievements after leaving this company…”

Eudora still didn’t say anything. Christopher frowned and asked, “Eudora? What’s wrong?”

“I have an idea!” Eudora said suddenly. “I’ve got it!”

“What idea is that?” Christopher asked immediately.

“I’ve got it. Can we change the houses in the residential area into warehouses?” Eudora asked.

“Warehouses?” Christopher was a little surprised by this bold idea.

“Yes. Rosaville City is by the sea. A new dock is currently under construction near the residential area. There will be a lot of goods on the dock and a huge warehouses are necessary to accommodate the goods. If we can change the houses into warehouses, then no one will be concerned that someone had died there before,” Eudora continued.

Christopher’s eyes lit up. He quickly took out his mobile phone to search on the Internet. After a while, he put down his mobile phone and looked at Eudora with admiration.

“There’s really a new dock being constructed there. Wow! Eudora! You’re amazing!” Christopher said.

Eudora chuckled. She was not amazing. She just happened to read the newspaper with Amos every day. Because of that she knew a lot about the current affairs.

“Although we have come up with this idea, we still need a lot of funds. I think the company just now certainly doesn’t want to cooperate with us anymore. We must find another company who is willing to collaborate with us to complete this project as soon as possible,” Eudora continued.

This was quite tough. Besides Valiant East, there were only three to four companies left in Rosaville City who had the means to take over this project.

The Gellert family was one of them. Christopher would definitely not ask the Gellert family for help. This was just like how Eudora was unwilling to ask Amos for help.

Both of them were once again faced with a crisis.

“No matter. Let’s try to ask for help from the other two companies. Perhaps they’ll agree with our plan,” Eudora said. This was better than not having any chance at all!

Christopher nodded his head and asked the employees to return to the company to prepare the proposal.

After that, both of them went out with the new proposal in their hand.

Amos Granger was playing golf at the golf course. He struck the ball from the tee and got a hole-in-one.

Harley Louis emerged from behind Amos and pointed to the middle-aged man who was playing golf at the front. He said, “That’s Thomas Shelby. He has been looking to get acquainted with you a while ago. Lately, he spends a lot of time with the First Young Master of the Cooper family.”

Amos narrowed his eyes and asked, “Oh, the Cooper family?”

“Yes, it seems that the Cooper family sincerely wants to get close to him,” Harley replied.

Amos sneered and said, “Do you think Thomas will really cooperate with them? He is just trying to provoke me because I don’t want to see him a while ago!”

“Well, you’ve guessed it right. It’s such a pity that Thomas still thinks that you’re worried,” Harley said.

While they were talking, all of a sudden, Harley was stunned. “Why is sister-in-law here?” he asked.

Amos looked over and saw Eudora coming in together with Christopher.

They had already visited another company before this. However, the other company had rejected them.

It took Christopher a lot of effort to find out that Jeremy Cooper, the First Young Master of the Cooper family, was playing golf here. Therefore, both of them came here immediately.

This was their last chance.

Christopher walked over and greeted Jeremy when he was taking a break.

“President Cooper!”

Jeremy knew about the Gellert family’s situation. He also knew that no one treated Christopher well in the Gellert family. Jeremy just nodded his head slightly and said, “Oh, Christopher! I heard from your younger brother that you’re busy with your property development recently. Why are you free to come here today?”

It seemed that Christopher had gotten used to this kind of situation. He was not angry.

He smiled and said, “I’ve come here because of the project. President Cooper, you’re also a property developer, right? I happen to have a good proposal here, so I want you to have a look.”

Jeremy did not reject him immediately. Eudora thought he was giving it a thought. Therefore, she quickly handed over the documents in her hand.

“Please have a look at it, President Cooper. This is our new plan…” Eudora said.

“Christopher!” Jeremy didn’t even look at Eudora. He said arrogantly, “I’ve been quite busy recently. Why don’t you ask your brother for help?”

Christopher’s heart sank. He knew that this was not going to end well. Jeremy and his brother, John Gellert, were friends.

Although Christopher knew about this, he didn’t want to give up. He just wanted to try his luck.

“I’m sorry to disturb you!” After saying that, Christopher was about to leave.

Eudora gritted her teeth and said, “President Cooper, would you like to take a look at this? Our project is really good. The profit margin will be high if we succeed…”

Jeremy picked up the document and smashed it on Eudora’s body before she could even finish speaking.

There was a loud sound!

Harley suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

The next second, Amos was already walking towards Eudora.

Eudora’s face was cut by the sharp edge of the document folder. Jeremy said casually, “Oh, I’m sorry. I slipped.”

The next second, Amos rushed over and picked up the folder on the ground. Then, he threw the documents at Jeremy.

There was a loud sound. Jeremy jumped from his seat.

“Who dares to throw things at me?” Jeremy asked angrily.

Amos pretended to look at Jeremy in surprise. “Oh, it’s President Cooper! I’m so sorry. I was passing by when I saw a rude man throwing things around. I didn’t expect the person to be you!”

Jeremy’s face darkened because he had lost his face in front of his potential client, Thomas Shelby. He was furious.

“Amos Granger! Although I respect you all the time, that doesn’t mean I’m afraid of you. You’re just an illegitimate child. Do you really think you could be the chairman of Valiant East?”

Upon hearing this, Eudora was flabbergasted.

Amos Granger was an illegitimate child? How could it be possible?’
