âAmosâ¦â Just as Eudora was about to speak, Amos dragged her down and blocked her lips once again.
This time, he could not suppress his primal instincts anymore. He immediately pulled off her pajamas, his big hands wandering all over her body.
This feeling was a little strange, yet familiar, making Eudora feel even more confused.
In the end, a horrifying scene seemed to flash in her mind when he pulled off the last of her clothes. It was a group of men looking at her ferociously.
Her heart sank, and the feeling of confusion disappeared in an instant. She screamed and pushed Amos away immediately.
Amos turned on the lights hurriedly and hugged her.
âDonât be afraid. Iâm here.â
He chided himself for not holding back his desires just now. He thought that she had already forgotten all about it and that those memories had been flushed away. They were married, and it had been a long time since the Old Master had passed, so he did not think that there was no problem.
However, he did not expect that incident to hurt her so much.
âItâs my fault. Eudora, donât be afraidâ¦â
After Eudora calmed down, she said, âWhy? Why would I suddenly think of that horrible scene? Amos, tell me, was Iâ¦â
âNo!â Amos shook his head hurriedly, âYou are thinking too much!â
âReally?â Eudora frowned. âWhy did I lose my memory then?â
She started asking about the memory loss again. Amos was afraid that she would overthink, so he quickly said, âHavenât I already told you? Itâs just a small problem. Donât worry about it.â
She looked at him and finally nodded, seemingly convinced that he was not lying.
After that, Amos laid her down on her side of the bed and said, âGo to sleep!â
Eudora tilted her head and looked at Amos, âIâm sorryâ¦â
In fact, she could tell that Amos was restraining himself. However, there was something in her that was extremely resistant to them having intimacy.
âSilly girl!â Amos reached out and rubbed her hair.
âWhy were you angry just now then?â Eudora asked.
He was indeed a little angry before, but after that fleeting thrilling moment, he was no longer angry at all.
In this world, nothing was more important than she was.
Noticing that he was quiet, Eudora asked again, âCanât you tell me?â
Amos pursed his lips and hesitated for a long time before saying, âFrom now on, you should stay away from Thea and Tina!â
Eudora was at a loss for words.
âWhy? They seem like good people!â
Amos frowned. When he recalled them yelling at each other without any self-restraint earlier that afternoon, his face immediately darkened.
âThey like you! They even said that they wanted to be with you!â
Eudora was baffled by his words.
She burst into laughter, only stopping after a long while, âMr. Granger, has anyone told you that you are very old-fashioned?â
He would never admit it!
âYou know what I am like!â
Eudora shrugged. âBut, youâre really a little outdated! Iâve only just recovered some memories, but I already knew that they were just joking. In fact, they are just expressing their admiration for me. Why must you take it so seriously?â
Amos Granger, the old-fashioned man, was very angry. âWell, that wonât do either! You are mine! You could only be with me!â
Eudora was helpless, âOkay! If I see them next time, I will restrain myself a little, okay? Are you not even going to let me have friends now?â
Amos, of course, did not want her to be without friends, âOf course you could!â
Eudora breathed a sigh of relief, then closed her eyes. After a while, she opened her eyes again and said.
âPresident Granger, you should loosen up a little!â
Amos was speechless.
They were basically from the same generation, but she had lost her memories and returned to her past self in her twenties, while he seemed to have become an old man!
He was only in his thirties!
Old Man Granger was upset the whole night, and he did not sleep a wink through the night.
â¦
When Eudora woke up the next morning, she found that her lips were swollen, just like two red sausages.
Her skin had always been sensitive, and it would swell up easily whenever she came into contact with allergens. At this moment, her lips looked rather unsightly.
With an ice pack in her hand, Eudora cursed Amos a hundred times in her heart.
At this time, Amos sneezed unexpectedly.
Clint, who was sitting across him, was worried, âMr. Granger, are you alright? The weather has been quite unpredictable lately. You must take care of your health!â
Amos shook his head and said, âIâm fine. Letâs continue.â
Clint did not move, but his eyes were fixed on Amosâ lips, âMr. Granger, did you eat spicy food yesterday?â
âWhy do you think so?â
âYour lipsâ¦â Clint was about to say something but he stopped on second thought.
Amos did realize that his lips felt a little strange in the morning, but he did not think too much about it. Thinking of this, his lips curled up slightly. âIâm fine!â
Clint covered his face mischievously.
He seemed to have discovered their secret. He was single, yet he had such a rich imagination.
After calming himself down, Clint said seriously, âWith regards to the project that Steven had deliberately interfered with, I have arranged for our people to fix the issues secretly. Donât worry, it will not affect the interests of the house buyers!â
Amos nodded and said, âGreat job.â
Clint was a little confused, âActually, Mr. Granger, The Young Madam has effectively eliminated Stevenâs threat toward you in the company during that meeting the last time. We could have left this case alone!â
Amos shook his head, âDo you know what buying a house means to ordinary people?â
Clint immediately lowered his head in shame. âI understand now!â
A house might not be a big deal to people like them, who worked in a real estate company. As long as they could maintain their position in the company, it would be easy for them to get a house.
However, for ordinary people, a house might be their lifelong hope. Many people lived from paycheck to paycheck. They might even have to acquire loans to purchase a house.
After that, they would have to carry the burden of a few decadesâ worths of debt on their shoulders. Many people worked hard all their lives so that they could eventually live in their own houses.
If problems were to arise with their house, it would be a huge blow to them.
This was also why Amos had taken exceptionally good care of the quality of the houses when he was in Valiant East. However, Steven, who had been pampered since he was young and had just come back from abroad, would not understand this principle.
âWell, Mr. Granger, if thereâs nothing else, Iâll go and do my work.â He said.
âWait!â Amos suddenly stopped him, âI have something to ask you.â
Clint nodded and said, âPlease.â
âTake a seat!â Amos said.
Clint looked at Amos curiously. Why did it seem as though President Granger looked a bit embarrassed? This was a bit strange.
âPresident Granger, please go aheadâ¦â
Amos nodded and said, âDo you know any internet slang?â
Clint was flabbergasted.
Was he hallucinating? Did President Granger just ask him if he knew any internet slang?
