Clint took the box and checked the contents. Then he said to Amos, "Yes, it's our box."
"Thank you very much, Mr. Cooper." Amos stood up.
Jeremy stopped him before he could leave. “Hold on!”
“It’s been quite a while since we last talked. Our families have always been in a good relationship. We
were quite close when your brother was still alive, weren't we?" said Jeremy in a cordial tone.
"What are you trying to say?" asked Amos.
Jeremy didn't expect Amos to be so cold to him. He faked a smile to hide his embarrassment. "Well,
you’ re much more capable than your uncle. Let me go straight to the point then. If we collaborate, we
will definitely win over Thomas Shelby. So, let’s work together! What do you think? Isn’t this a much
easier way to earn money?" suggested Jeremy.
'T m sorry. On behalf of Valiant East, we’ re not interested in that!" Amos rejected.
He turned around and walked out.
Jeremy snorted, "Hmph! Let's see how long you can keep your pride!”
"President Granger, people have been saying that Jeremy Cooper is vindictive and revengeful. I’m
afraid that you will get into trouble if you rejected him like that,” Clint reminded after leaving the place.
Amos smiled and said, "Do you think he will stay still if I accept his offer? He was already offended from
the moment we threatened him with the clip."
"That’s true. Are we heading back to the company now?" asked Clint.
Amos looked at his wristwatch and shook his head.
"You bring the money back to the company. I'll drive home myself," said Amos.
Clint nodded and left.
As soon as Amos entered the house, he saw Eudora, who wore her red dress, sitting on the sofa
waiting for him patiently. She also set up a candlelight dinner in the living room. She looked like a bride
waiting for her groom.
Amos could not hide his smile as he walked towards her.
His eyes were fixed on her blushed face. She quickly explained, “It was Aunt Valerie's idea. Actually I...
hmm...”
Her words were lost in his kiss.
Although he had kissed her so many times, he still longed for her lips.
His lips gently touched hers. He chuckled and held her in his arms when he noticed Eudora clung to his
neck.
” You look so beautiful today.” His voice was so attractive, like a magnet.
Eudora blushed. “Let’s eat before the food turns cold.”
Amos shook his head. "Don't worry about it. You're more delicious than the food." Eudora didn’t know
how to react to his words. The next moment she was already carried onto the dining table by him.
Without wasting time, his lips covered hers again.
Lying on the table was a little uncomfortable and slightly hurt. Amos slipped his hands under her waist
while he kissed her collarbone.
His lips brushed against her skin and went down slowly. He was so gentle and slow as if he was
savoring every part of her body.
The touch of his hands ignited her desire,
that sent shivers through her nerves, making her eyes glassy. Eudora gripped on Amos’ arms as if she
was drowning.
"Are you hungry?" asked Amos.
His hoarse voice echoed in her ears. She nodded, and shook her head immediately.
"Open your mouth," he instructed.
Eudora opened her mouth subconsciously. The next second, a piece of steak was put into her mouth,
followed by another round of passionate kiss.
They were already fully undressed by the time they finished the steak.
Eudora could feel his erection between her legs. Amos inhaled deeply and said," I’ll go and get..."
"No!" Eudora grabbed his hand.
"We don't need that. Didn’t we agree to stay together forever and have our own children? If it's a baby
boy, you will teach him how to be a gentleman. If it's a baby girl, I will make her a princess. We will
watch them grow and make them the happiest children in the world."
Eudora’s eyes sparkled like the stars in the sky.
She grabbed his waist before he could reply.
His eyes darkened again before his lips smashed against hers.
The 'dinner' lasted for a long time. By the end of it, Eudora wasn't sure if it was real, or if she was
dreaming.
While she was half asleep, Amos carried her upstairs to clean up. "Let’s go fly a kite. Your birthday is
coming soon," Amos whispered in her ear.
"Okay," Eudora answered softly and fell asleep.
The next day, Amos had already left before Eudora woke up. She recalled the mess they made
downstairs last night and hurriedly went down.
However, Aunt Valerie had helped to clean up everything.
She smiled brightly at Eudora when she saw her. "You must be exhausted. Please go back and rest.”
Eudora blushed. She quickly turned around and hit on someone's chest. She looked up and saw Amos.
"Why are you still here?"
"Do you not want to see me?" Amos questioned.
"I didn't say that!" Eudora covered her face.
Amos grabbed her arm and looked into her eyes. "I have to go now. Go back to your room and rest.”
In front of Aunt Valerie, he kissed on her forehead before he turned around and went out. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.
The sound of a car engine starting up was heard from outside.
"He really cares about you,” said Aunt Valerie with a smile.
Eudora looked down as she tried to hide the smile on her face.
She went back to bed after he left. She could still feel Amos’ scent in the room, which had been
keeping her awake. She looked up and suddenly recalled what Amos said when she was half asleep
last night.
She sat up instantly.
Gordon had always been busy ever since her mother passed away. No one in the family remembered
her birthday. Not even after she went to Felix. Every year on her birthday, she would just buy herself a
cake.
Eventually, she stopped doing that.
Sometimes, it was better to forget something rather than to remember it.
However, she couldn’t help but look forward to her birthday this year. She realized that the reason she
was reluctant to celebrate her birthdays was because no one else would share her happiness.
Eudora got up and decided to go to the mall.
She thought that it would be better to buy a bigger cake so that she could share it with Amos and Aunt
Valerie.
After leaving the mall, she headed to an alley. When she was a child, her mother often brought her to a
shop nearby to buy the materials needed to make a kite.
She was worried that she might not be able to find the exact same shop again. Fortunately, it was still
there.
However, the owner had changed.
A middle-aged woman exclaimed, "Hello Miss! We sell all kinds of kites! The best in the town!"
"Do you have some wooden dowels and papers used to make a kite? I plan to make one myself,"
asked Eudora.
