Chapter 18


    "I said it a month ago, and I''ll say it again. I don''t want to make this kind of deal with you."


    Amos chuckled, "What deal? This has nothing to do with the deal. This... is merely us fulfilling our


    needs."


    She breathed in his scent, a faint minty cologne mixed with the smell of tobo. Eudora George


    shivered.

    The man''s lips brushed against her ear. The soft touch sent waves of tingling sensation through her


    body. She reached out her hand to push him away.


    "Let me go, I will deal with it myself."


    Amos Granger raised his brows. "Deal with it yourself? There are despicable men like Franco Horace


    everywhere in this hotel. You said you''re afraid of me. Aren''t you afraid of those people then?"


    He was speaking the truth. A beauty like her, obviously not in her right state of mind stumbling in a


    daze through the corridors of the hotel. No matter how decent the man was before, he would not be


    able to resist her.


    "It''s none of your business. Let me go."


    Eudora pushed Amos away again and staggered towards the door.


    This time, Amos didn''t stop her.


    He could tell that she had reached her limits. In fact, she had already begun to undress herself in the


    room.


    Eudora was aware of her wavering alertness and fell to the ground again.


    "Eudora!" Amos rushed to her. "Why are you still so stubborn."


    Eudora grabbed the ashtray on the tea table.


    With a bang, the ashtray broke into pieces.


    Under Amos'' shocked gaze, she grabbed a piece of the broken ss and stabbed it into her thigh.


    "Eudora, you..." Amos clenched his teeth and inspected Eudora''s wound. This woman never fail to


    surprise him every single time.


    Amos stared at the blood that began to pool on the floor and felt his heart beat nervously for the first


    time. He stepped over cautiously towards Eudora, picked her up and rushed to the hospital.


    In the hospital, the doctor muttered in a low voice while dressing the wound.


    "She is too careless. The wound is quite bad. Had it gone a little deeper, her vital blood vessels might


    have been punctured. That will be troublesome."


    Amos narrowed his eyes. ''This woman isn''t joking.'' he thought.


    He''d be lying if he wasn''t the least intrigued by this woman. She''d rather inflict pain on herself than to


    let the effects of the drug take over her senses. Amos found himself fascinated by Eudora.


    When Eudora woke up the next day, Amos was no longer in the hospital.


    She was informed by one of the nurses that the man who brought her inst night had already left. He


    had also paid her medical expenses before leaving.


    Eudora chuckled at her thoughts. She''d bet that no one would believe her if she told them Amos


    Granger, the most powerful businessman in Rosaville City and infamous women-hater, not only sent


    her to the hospital, but also paid for her medical expenses.


    The phone in her bag suddenly rang, and Eudora quickly answered the call.


    The anxious voice of her assistant came from the other side. "Manager George, you finally answered


    the phone! Where have you been? President Meyer has been looking for you since earlier in the


    morning when you weren''t around. Did something happen?"


    "I''ll be back shortly."


    After Eudora finished speaking, she noticed that there were clothes neatly folded by the bed. She got


    up and put them on.


    The moment Eudora stepped into the office, Felix Meyer rushed to her and started berating her.


    "Eudora George! What have you done! I asked you to meet with the client and you end up scratching


    his face! Now he is going to sue us! What are you going to do about this!"


    Ah that incident with Franco Horace. Eudora scoffed, "Why don''t you ask him the reason why I


    scratched his face?" Felix frowned, his expression unreadable.


    "I know that there may be some disagreements when we meet with clients, but for the sake of the


    "Disagreement? Is that what he told you? In that case, let him sue all he want. But tell him that I''m


    going to sue him too. He drugged my drink and attempted to rape me! Let me see if the police is going


    to help him or me?" Eudora flipped her phone out and proceeded to dial 999.


    "Eudora!" Felix snatched away Eudora''s phone. "Aren''t you fine now? There''s no need to cause so


    much trouble right? President Horace said that as long as you apologize to him, he will not take this


    matter to heart."
