Amos Granger took the bag away the moment Wendy Liam touched the bag.
âItâs not for you,â he said.
Wendyâs hand was left hanging in the air. She froze for a moment. Then, she said, âOh, Iâve guessed it wrong. Itâs okay. Iâve been learning a lot from the teacher. It wonât be long before I can design my own bag.â
Amos frowned. Wendy touched the edge of the bowl and said, âItâs no longer boiling hot. Please try some.â
âWendyâ¦â Amos called her suddenly. He said, âI have to tell you something.â
âAmos, I suddenly remember that I still have something to do. I have to go firstâ¦â Wendy said immediately. However, Amos spoke before she could leave.
âYou saved me. So, I must take care of you. But, I already have a fiancee. This bag is for her.
Upon hearing this, Wendy stopped walking.
After a long time, she turned around and looked at Amos.
âIs your fiancee Miss George?â She asked.
In fact, she had already noticed it.
âYes!â Amos nodded his head.
Wendy smiled.
She said, âMiss George is a good person. I like her very much. Donât worry, Amos. I wonât affect your relationship with her. Iâm just very grateful for your help. Thatâs why I cooked the soup for you. Iâll just take it away if you donât like it.â
After saying that, she turned around and started to pack up.
âYou donât have to clean it up. Iâll ask Clint to do it later.â he said hurriedly.
Wendy stopped and said, âOkay, Iâll go back now. Iâll treat you to dinner some other day.â
Amos asked Clint Zuckerberg to send her back when she walked out of his office.
Wendy asked Clint when they were on their way back, âDo Miss George and Mr. Granger have a good relationship? They have known each other for a long time, right?â
Upon hearing this, Clint was stunned. It seemed that Amos had told her about his relationship with Eudora George. However, he didnât want to get himself into any trouble. Therefore, he shook his head and said, âIâm sorry, Miss Liam. I donât know much about their relationship.â
Wendy realized that Clint would not tell her anything. So she just nodded her head and responded, âOh!â
â¦
It was a weekend the next day.
Amos did not go out. Eudora was shocked when she saw Amos still lying beside her when she woke up in the morning.
She blinked her eyes and heard Amosâ voice, âGood morning.â
âGood morning!â Eudora responded and looked at him in a daze.
Amos kissed her forehead.
âAre you going to get up? Someone might come over to have lunch today.â He spoke calmly.
âWhat?â Eudora was stunned. âWhoâs coming over?â She asked.
âHarley.â Amos said. Harley Louis would definitely come over to have lunch since he had requested to meet up twice.
It was also the reason why Amos wanted to stay at home today.
Harley was his best friend. He had gone through thick and thin with Amos. He was like his family.
Amos was happy because Eudora and Harley were both by his side.
Eudora was shocked, âWhy didnât you tell me earlier? I didnât prepare anything.â
âYou donât have to prepare anything. Heâs just like a brother to me.â Amos said with a smile.
âNo way. Itâs the first time for him to have a meal at our house. I need to be a good host.â Eudora said.
âYou?â Amos smiled and said, âWell, you donât understand him. If anything, he would only mock me.â
âWhy would he do that? I know youâre just trying to make me happy.â Eudora replied seriously.
âHeâs going to laugh at me and say that my wife doesnât know how to cook!â Amos said.
Upon hearing this, Eudora was speechless. âWhoâs your wife?â She asked.
However, Eudora was actually smiling. Then, she went to take a shower.
After showering, she asked Auntie Valerie, âWhat ingredients do we have?â
After hearing what Auntie Valerie replied, Eudora shook her head and said, âItâs not enough. Iâll have to buy more!â
Amos was already downstairs while they were talking.
He said, âIâll go with you!â
Seeing that the couple was heading out together, Auntie Valerie looked around the kitchen and said, âIâll stay at home and prepare the rest of the ingredients!â
Eudora looked at Amos awkwardly and followed him out.
Both of them went to a mall near their residential area. There were a lot of people buying groceries in the morning. Eudora was worried that she had no time to prepare for much if Harley came earlier. Therefore, she bought everything in a rush.
Amos looked at Eudora and called her a few times. However, Eudora ignored him.
He grabbed Eudoraâs arm when they were standing behind a rack.
âYou donât have to rush,â
âThe guest is coming soon. How can I not be worried?â Eudora defended herself. She wanted to pull her hand back from Amos. However, Amos did not let go of her. âKiss me!â
Eudora was stunned. âThere are so many people here. How can I kiss you?â
âPlease just kiss me for a while!â Amos said coquettishly.
Eudora had no choice. She glanced around her and quickly pecked his cheek.
After kissing him, Eudora wanted to walk away. However, Amos pulled her back and kissed her hard. After a long time, he finally let go of Eudora.
âYou canât treat other men so well.â He said.
Eudora was taken aback.
Wendy Liam was hiding at the corner. She came out when both of them had left.
She had always thought that Amos treated her very well. But after witnessing the scene in front of her, Wendy realised that he was just treating her politely.
On the other hand, Amos really enjoyed spending his time together with Eudora. Looking at them holding each other hands, Wendy was unhappy.
â¦
After reaching home, Eudora started cooking right away.
Amos took an apron and tied it around his waist. He said, âIâll wash the vegetables.â
Auntie Valerie was so happy to see everyone so busy in the kitchen. She said, âI almost forgot that I have not watered the flowers yet!â
Both of them had been bickering playfully for a while now. It had been a long time since they got along so well. Auntie Valerie wanted to give them some space.
Eudora was a little embarrassed at her remarks. She said, âYou scared Auntie Valerie away!â
âNo, I didnât. This is the first time that weâre entertaining guests. As your husband, I must help you.â
Amos said happily. Eudora pursed her lips and said, âWell, please help me wash the vegetables then!â
âSure, my dear wife.â Amos said.
âShut up!â Eudora replied quickly.
Harley was standing outside when they were talking.
He suddenly spoke, âIt seems that itâs not the right time for me to come. Both of you are so sweet!â
Eudora was speechless. He stared at Amos awkwardly and said to Harley, âHey, youâre here! Please have a seat!â
âDonât be so polite. Are you going to prepare a lot of food today? Amos is so eager to go home to have dinner every time. But, he refused to bring me over.â Harley said.
Harley was a chatty person. It was really easy to get along with him.
Eudora laughed and said, âYeah, Iâll prepare a lot of food today. You have to eat more.â
âThank you!â Harley replied happily.
All of a sudden, someone stepped in when Eudora and Harley were both talking, âIt seems that I will have a good meal today.â
Eudora and Harley were stunned. Then, they looked over.
They saw Wendy slowly walking in.
