Chapter 306: Chapter 306 The Familiar Feeling of Being Alone

When the dinner officially began, Amos suddenly turned into the world’s best boyfriend.

As soon as Eudora picked up her cutlery, Amos had already put a piece of the chicken thigh on her plate, “Your favorite!”

There were so many people around them. Eudora was embarrassed for a moment and she quickly replied, “Thank you.”

Amos reached out and patted her head, “Do you still need to thank me?”

Eudora was even more embarrassed. She gave Amos a look, as though she was asking him, “What do you mean?”

Amos smiled and picked a piece of omelet for her, “You like this too!”

Eudora was bewildered.

Because of the past series of events, Kesha had given up competing with Eudora. However, Amos and Eudora still tried to flaunt their affection publicly.

Kesha George was so angry she felt her ears turn red. Unfortunately, Steven Granger showed no intention of scooping the dishes for her.

In the end, the entire dinner was filled with scenes of Amos and Eudora treating each other affectionately.

After dinner, Harry Granger finally made a move.

“Amos, it looks like Steven and you are husbands of sisters. Why don’t you look out more for Steven from now on?”

Amos smiled faintly and said, “Uncle Harry, it’s not like we aren’t related!”

On the surface, it looked as though Amos had agreed to his proposition. However, if one were to consider his words carefully, the true meaning of his words was very subtle. What he meant was ‘I didn’t help you before this, so why would I start helping you now?’

Harry was an old-timer, so he could easily decipher the meaning behind Amos’ words. He laughed it off and left soon after.

After Amos and the others left, Kesha also left in anger.

Harry gritted his teeth and spat angrily, “Amos is so stubborn. I tried to be nice, but he just wouldn’t budge! I’ll make sure to have our revenge on him once we get all the money from the family.”

While Harry fumed with anger, Kaylene Yoder had her mind on other things.

Her thoughts were focused on her son, “Kesha seems alright, and Steven likes her too. Although she comes from an ordinary family, if Eudora were to end up with Amos, I think they’ll be good together.”

As she rambled to herself, Steven returned from sending Kesha off. Kaylene immediately clung onto him and started nagging.

“Son, what’s so bad about Kesha?”

Steven was very honest, “Her past experience is questionable.”

Kaylene’s face turned dark in an instant, “What did you say? What about her past?”

“Just go through the news. Even though it happened a few years ago, I’m sure that you’ll still be able to look it up.”

Kaylene quickly took out her phone and searched through the internet.

However, Harry and Steven were already talking about the amusement park project, “Don’t worry, and everything’s going according to plan. It doesn’t matter if Amos doesn’t acknowledge us. All we need is recognition from other people.”

Harry nodded with satisfaction and said, “That’s my boy. All these years, I thought I’d wasted my money sending you abroad. But now, I admit that it was all worth it.”

Kaylene, who was next to them, immediately shrieked in horror.

“Oh my God! Why do you like that immoral girl? You’d better break up with her immediately!”

Steven and Harry looked at each other. Harry then said, “Why don’t you head back first. I’ll explain everything to your mother.”

“Thank you, Dad!” After saying that, Steven left.

It was only then that Harry pulled Kaylene over and slowly explained their plans regarding Kesha.

…

Meanwhile, Amos Granger was pushing Eudora George back to the Ruby House. She couldn’t help but ask, “What were you doing earlier?”

Amos burst into laughter, “Couldn’t you see that I was trying to flaunt my affection?”

Eudora covered her face, “Weren’t you too obvious? Especially in front of your Uncle and Auntie?”

“I did it on purpose!” Amos said as he stopped and kneeled in front of Eudora.

“You are mine. I won’t let you lose to anyone!”

Eudora was stunned and she finally understood, “Was it because I told you that Kesha had dragged me out to brag about her flowers?”

His silence answered the question.

Eudora was a little touched, but at the same time, she thought it was rather funny.

“You know, I don’t need you to show it. I know that you love me.”

“It doesn’t matter if you know. I still have to prove it to you,” Amos said.

“So if someone were to call me ugly, do I have to do plastic surgery to win them?”

Hearing this, Amos looked at her sternly. The expression on his face gradually darkened. Eudora’s hair stood on end. She couldn’t help but ask, “What are you looking at?”

“I’m don’t think that anyone is blind enough to say that! How could they call a beautiful girl like you an ugly person?”

Eudora was speechless.

“I was just saying ‘what if’!”

“There’s no ‘what if’. You’re the most beautiful person in my heart. If someone says otherwise, then that person must be blind.”

Eudora was speechless, but her heart fluttered as he praised her. She had to admit, it did please her.

“Have you been eating a lot of honey again?”

Hearing this, the man smiled and said, “Why don’t you give it a taste?”

Before Eudora could even reply, Amos had already leaned over and kissed her on the lips.

…

The next morning, Eudora was awakened by Amos, who was talking on the phone. It was Harley Louis on the other end of the line, “The DNA results are out. I’m heading over right now. Are you coming?”

“Yes!” As he spoke, Amos got up slowly and went to the bathroom.

Eudora opened her eyes and wondered what they were referring to. Only after a while did she figure out they were talking about the missing servant from that day. At the thought of this, she jumped out of bed to wash up too.

When Amos came out, he saw that Eudora was already ready.

“I want to come along too.”

Amos hesitated for a moment, “But your legs aren’t completely healed yet.”

“I’m fine. I’m the only one who knows what she looks like. If I come, I’ll recognize her right away!”

Amos had to admit that she was right, so he had no choice but to compromise.

However, after getting into the car, he warned again, “No matter what happens later, you must stay behind me. I’ll shield you.”

Eudora nodded and said, “Okay.”

An hour later, they met Harley in Valiant East.

As he walked forward, Harley gave them the details of the suspect.

“Zena Zilon, female, 25 years old. Our intel shows that she travels solo. No one knows exactly what her job is. As for who hired her, I’m afraid that we’ll need her to answer that.”

With this, Harley took out a photo, and Eudora recognized it with just one look.

“It’s her!”

Upon hearing this, Harley’s lips raised into a smile, “Well, it seems that we’re very lucky this time. All we had to do is to dig around the trunk and we’ve already gotten the real culprit.”

As he said that, the car arrived at the entrance of a house.

When Eudora was about to open the car door, Amos stopped her.

“Stay in the car.”

When Harley turned around and saw the clasped hands, he couldn’t help but hiss.

“I’m getting a sense of Deja Vu here. It’s fine. Both of you should stay in the car. I’ll bring someone else with me.”
