Chapter 281: Chapter 281 I Wouldn’t Bother You If I Didn’t Need Help

As Kesha’s figure gradually became smaller and smaller, Steven Granger spoke.

“Eudora, is she really your sister? Why didn’t you talk to her then?”

Eudora George frowned, “I have nothing to say to her!”

Steven smiled and said, “Your sister is quite cute!”

Eudora didn’t want to talk to him anymore. Kesha was the sort of person who was always up to no good.

When she left Rosaville City, she had decided that she would never come back here ever again.

Therefore, even though she had come back, it was to help a friend. She had never even considered meeting with the people from her past.

Now that Kesha George had brought up the past, she suddenly felt a little conflicted. She started to wonder if she was really as heartless as Kesha had indicated.

…

When Eudora got home, she helped to hang the decorations in the house. However, it was obvious that she was distracted.

When Amos Granger got home, he frowned when he saw that Eudora was hanging the decorations absent-mindedly, seemingly oblivious that the ladder behind her was about to collapse.

With a chill in his heart, Amos hurried forward and pushed her out of harm’s way. The ladder hit the ground behind him with a bang.

Only then did Eudora come back to her senses. She looked at Amos with a pale face.

“Are you okay?”

Amos shook his head, “I should be asking you that question. What were you thinking about?”

“Nothing!” Eudora shook her head.

He immediately placed his hand over hers, “Why don’t you take a break for a minute? Come with me. I have something to tell you.”

Eudora thought that the matter seemed urgent, so she immediately put down the decoration pieces and followed behind him.

“What’s up?” she asked.

Amos patted the seat next to him and said, “Take a seat first.”

When she finally sat down, they looked into each other’s eyes.

“Tell me, what happened?”

Eudora opened her mouth and said, “I thought that you had something to tell me. I’m fine…”

“Liar!” Amos slapped her gently on the ass, “I told you before that you are not allowed to lie to me. You are my girl. I could tell easily if something is bothering you.”

His eyes were blazing with fire and his eyes were golden.

Eudora had no choice but to say, “I bumped into Kesha earlier today. We had a brief exchange. However, I won’t let her get to me, so don’t worry.”

“What is Kesha capable of? Did she scold you? Did she ask why you’ve not been home to visit Gordon?”

If she hadn’t known that Amos was at work at that time, Eudora would have suspected that he was present then because his questions were targeted.

He already knew, so she had no more reason to hide it from him.

“Actually, I don’t care. I am just wondering if I’m an unfilial child.”

As she said this, she frowned tightly and her words stabbed him in his heart.

The next second, Amos pulled her into his arms, “No, you’re not unfilial. To me, you’re the best.”

Eudora was speechless, “You’re biased. You’ve been influenced by our relationship. Therefore, you couldn’t judge this matter clearly.”

“Says who? I could see through every part of you. From the top of your head to the bottom of your feet.”

Eudora was speechless. How did he turn such a serious topic into something so indecent?

Seeing that she was dumbfounded, Amos asked, “Isn’t it funny?”

Eudora was still speechless.

Was he being serious? How could he still crack jokes at this moment?! Eudora shook her head decisively and said, “It’s not funny.”

Amos paused for a moment. He then stretched his hand out and placed it in front of Eudora, “This is the back of my hand.”

Then, he pointed at his foot, “This is the bottom of my foot!”

“What do your mean?” Eudora asked.

Before she finished speaking, Amos’s long hands had drawn her closer, “You’re my baby.”

Eudora was speechless yet again.

“Did you learn this from Harley?” She really couldn’t believe that a serious person like Amos would learn these things.

“As long as you like it. It doesn’t matter who I had learned it from, does it?”

“But I don’t like it!”

Amos was frustrated. He felt as though Eudora was not appreciating his efforts to cheer her up. Eudora’s heart skipped a beat and she finally smiled, “This is the first time I’ve seen this expression on your face. I’m going to take a photo of you for keepsake.”

Amos stared at Eudora as she hunted for her mobile phone hurriedly to take pictures of him. He finally breathed a sigh of relief. This woman had always loved playing around. At least she was feeling better now.

Eudora seemed to have totally forgotten about her problems once she was distracted by Amos.

After that, Kesha did not appear again and gradually, Eudora forgot about the incident. However, there was once that she couldn’t hold back her desire and secretly gone back to the George family home to take a look when she was on her way to work.

Gordon George was basking in the sun as he sat by the door. He appeared to have aged a little in those five years, but generally speaking, there were not many changes.

In the blink of an eye, it was Thanksgiving day. According to the Old Master’s instructions, everyone from the Granger family must be present on this day.

It was an important celebration, therefore it was a school holiday. Eudora also gave Auntie Valerie a day off.

Eudora busied herself with designing in the morning while Amos sat in the living room and played with Juju. There was a faint sound coming from the old house, but it did not affect them. They continued with what they were doing as though nothing had happened.

At noon, when Eudora was about to make lunch, a servant came over from the old house.

“Mrs. Granger, someone from your family has come to visit you!”

Eudora was stunned, “Someone from my family?”

“Yes, she said that she’s your sister.”

“Kesha?” Almost in an instant, Eudora shook her head, “I don’t want to see her!”

“But Miss George has been invited into the main room. The Old Master wants you to go over.”

After that, the servant turned and left.

Eudora felt a headache coming. She had thought that all this was over, but Kesha suddenly appeared once again. What on earth did she want?

“Let’s go and have a look!” Amos was already carrying Juju in his arms. Obviously, he had heard the conversation between Eudora and the servant.

Eudora nodded. As soon as she arrived at the door of the main room, she saw Kesha coming out of the room to greet her.

“Eudora, there you are!”

Eudora frowned. She was about to speak but Amos spoke first, “It’s been a while since I last saw you. Have you forgotten about the things that had happened in the past?”

Kesha’s neck shrank and she said in a hurry, “Eudora, please don’t. In fact, Dad asked me to come here and visit you. He knows that you are back here with Amos. He is very happy…”

“Oh…” Amos suddenly sneered and said, “Do you think that I’m joking? You must have forgotten what had happened back then!”

As soon as he finished speaking, he suddenly shouted to the corner, “Charlie…”

How could Kesha forget? However, she was still counting on her remaining luck, assuming that Eudora would not dare to do anything to her in front of the elders of the Granger family.

However, she did not expect Amos to be so partial to her.

Kesha took a few steps back hurriedly and she seemed visibly aggrieved, “It’s fine. If Eudora doesn’t want to see me, I’ll leave now,” After that, she handed the box that was in her hand to Eudora, “This is for you…”
