Chapter 140: Chapter 140 Yes, I’m Hitting You

In Valiant East.

Harley Louis leaned on the sofa lazily, but his mouth never stopped.

“Amos, it seems that everything is peaceful again, am I right? You look much better now.”

Amos Granger rolled his eyes at him.

Harley was not angry. He said, “It will be your father’s birthday in a few days. Have you prepared a gift?”

Amos had completely forgotten about it…

Seeing his expression, Harley knew what was going on and immediately began to complain again.

“If your father knows that you have forgotten his birthday, he will probably die of anger. However, it’s not your fault. He has been absent since your childhood. He should just dream on if he expects you to remember his birthday!”

Amos was speechless. “You’ve said it yourself. What else could I say?”

Harley then shut up and started to gossip about Wendy Liam.

“It seems that she had not appeared recently. Is she giving up so easily?”

Clint Zuckerberg did not know what to say.

“Mr. Louis, are you hoping for chaos?”

Harley shook his head and looked at Clint earnestly. “It’s not right for you to say that. It’s not that I’m hoping for chaos. I know women fairly well, but I just couldn’t figure Wendy out. Or was I perhaps wrong about her?”

Clint and Amos were used to Harley yapping for hours on end, so they ignored him.

However, when he got home in the evening, Amos brought up the topic to Eudora, “My father is throwing a birthday party in a few days. Let’s pick a gift tomorrow.”

Eudora’s lips parted instinctively, “I don’t think the Old Master wants to see me, does he?”

Amos pursed his lips, “I’m here! Don’t you worry.”

Eudora also nodded. “Okay.”

The next day was a weekend, so she went out with Amos.

The last time she went shopping with Amos was a long time ago.

While she was still lost in her thoughts, Amos suddenly asked, “What shall we buy for Dad?

Eudora thought for a moment and said, “I think it’s best if we bought him some accessories? Something practical which he could bring along with him. Maybe a watch?”

She was always so thoughtful. Amos nodded in agreement, “A watch it is then!”

The two went directly to the men’s boutique store. Eudora chose a limited edition Rolex. Amos thought it was appropriate, so he approved as well.

When they were waiting to pay, Amos’ cell phone rang. He went out to answer the call. Eudora was waiting alone in the store, but all of a sudden, Wendy’s voice came from behind.

“Miss George, what a coincidence!”

“Oh!” Eudora replied flatly.

Her cold tone provoked Wendy a little. Thinking of what Kesha George had said to her, she had mixed feelings towards Eudora.

“Miss George, what’s with your attitude?”

Eudora frowned. “What’s wrong with it?”

Wendy was on the verge of tears. “I was kind enough to say hello to you. It’s fine if you’re feeling frustrated, but you didn’t have to act like this.”

Well, well, the drama queen had begun her charade again!

Eudora smiled lightly. “Do you really have to behave in this way all the time?”

Wendys’ face turned even paler. “What did you say?” After that, she collapsed to the ground with a cry.

At the same time, Amos returned to the store. Seeing this, he looked at Eudora and asked, “What’s wrong?”

Wendy immediately spoke up first, “It’s all my fault. It’s my fault that I fell down accidentally. It has nothing to do with Miss George.”

The more she explained, the more she would appear to be the victim. Eudora was annoyed but a smile was plastered on her face.

“Thank you for your explanation, Miss Liam, but I don’t need it.” After that, she walked to Wendy and kicked her, establishing the fact that she had indeed hit her.

The kick was so painful that it actually stunned Wendy. She was momentarily at a loss.

Eudora, on the other hand, gave a cold sneer, “I just hit you. You can sue me if you want to.”

After that, she turned around and strutted out.

Wendy suddenly remembered that she had to cry to support her act, so she immediately wailed loudly. Tears streamed down her dainty face. “Amos, Miss George must be angry. Please don’t blame her!”

Amos looked at her quietly and made a phone call. “Auntie Agnes, please arrange for a driver to send Miss Liam home.”

After that, he took wrapped gift, turned around and chased after Eudora.

Looking at his disappearing back, Wendy let out a frustrated scream.

How could Amos still protect Eudora despite what had happened? That d*mned woman!

…

Amos left the store and saw that Eudora was standing on the side of the road.

When she saw the Amos coming, she held her chin high, frustration evident on her face.

“What’s wrong? Are you here to avenge your savior?”

Amos frowned and pulled her into his arms. “You’re not hurt, are you?”

Eudora was stunned. She thought that Amos was here to condemn her. Unexpectedly, he asked her if she was injured.

She instantly felt a muffled warmth surge in her heart. She shook her head and said, “Your savior is the one who is hurt.”

“Nonsense!” Amos said angrily. “Do you really think I’m a fool? Can’t I see through that little trick?”

He could see through it after all!

Eudora pursed her lips. “I thought you couldn’t! Men are not such meatheads after all, are they?”

Amos frowned and asked, “Meathead?”

It seemed that he didn’t quite understand what Eudora meant. After thinking for a while, he said, “Um, well, if you’re hungry, I’ll take you somewhere to eat.”

He had never been so clueless before. He had always been knowledgeable, but he was at a loss whenever it came to slangs.

Eudora couldn’t help but snort. “I don’t want to.”

Seeing her smile, Amos breathed a sigh of relief. “Are you not angry anymore?”

It turned out that he was teasing her.

Eudora’s giggles turned into a frown. “You liar!”

“I really didn’t know what you meant by that, but I know it’s not anything good.”

Well, that was more like it.

It was the Old Master’s birthday party the following day.

This was the third time that Eudora had visited the Granger family’s Mansion.

The Granger family was of esteemed status in Rosaville City. Many had come to attend the Old Master’s birthday party. Everyone was gathered together in the hall and socializing with each other.

When Amos entered the hall with Eudora, everyone’s eyes fell on the two of them.

The man was dressed in a custom-made suit, displaying his majestic figure in all handsomeness. The woman was wearing a fitting, red wine gown, which looked striking and dazzling.

Everyone started to gossip excitedly. “Who is this woman?”

“Didn’t you say that President Granger doesn’t like women?”

Old Master Granger, who was smiling, froze when he saw this scene. Beside him, Harry Granger immediately smiled and said, “Big brother, Amos is being unreasonable. He actually brought this woman to the banquet openly. Is he trying to embarrass the Granger family?”

Old Master Granger snorted and said, “I have yet to say anything, but here you are, blabbering away.”

Harry was stunned and he looked at the old man suspiciously. “Big brother, haven’t you always disliked this woman?”

“Does it matter if I like her or not?” There was a hint of helplessness in Old Master Granger’s words. He turned to his assistant next to him and said, “Please ask the Young Master to come to my study at once.”
