My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 541
Amos just looked at her calmly.
"Didn't you just say that you should be more polite to the guests?"
Eudora was rendered speechless, and Leslie, who was next to her, had also noticed that Amos was trouble. He quickly whispered, "Miss Eudora, would you like me to ask someone to come over?" Eudora felt a chill in her heart. She couldn't possibly have Leslie call others here. What if they started a fight and hurt Amos?
She had no choice but to agree to Amos' request.
"Let's start then! I'm not as weak as you think I am."
Amos smirked and said, "It's my honor."
Leslie did not expect that Eudora would actually gamble with this man. He immediately said, "Miss Eudora, don't worry. Shall I have the croupier deal with this man instead?"
Eudora didn't want Leslie to know what was going on, so she said coldly, "Do I look like I will lose?"
Leslie looked at her with a polite smile on his face. Who was she kidding? He could tell at a glance that she didn't know how to gamble!
However, he didn't have the nerve to say it out loud. He could only mutter softly, "Of course not!"
"Move then!"
Eudora instantly picked up the deck of cards in front of her and began to distribute them!
Although Eudora had never played before, she had grown up watching the movie 'Croupier'! She knew how to deal the cards.
Seeing that she was distributing the cards decently, Leslie finally breathed a sigh of relief.
The gamble started, and they had successfully passed the first few rounds. In the last round, Leslie, who was standing behind Eudora, glanced at Amos nervously.
Eudora wanted this to end quickly so that Amos could leave as soon as possible. However, Leslie still hoped that Eudora could win!
After all, the reputation of their casino was at stake. The other party was obviously not easy to deal with. What if the person made a big deal out of this bet?
Even if they could deal with the repercussions, they didn't want to be to appear too arrogant.
Jayden, the bodyguard standing behind Amos, was looking at his boss excitedly.
Amos didn't want to attract attention, so he did not bring his usual bodyguards with him this time around. He had asked his bodyguards to stay at home and to take care of the two children. Jayden was a newcomer. He had never seen Eudora before.
He thought that Amos was only here to have fun because he was in a bad mood. If Amos won this game, he would definitely be very happy.
He looked at the trump card in Amos' hand eagerly. He would definitely win as long as he used it. However, the next second, Amos unexpectedly kept the card in his hand.
"I lost!"
Jayden was shocked!
What was going on?
Leslie was also stunned. He saw it clearly too. If he had guessed correctly, Amos should have a good card in his hand!
How could he lose?
Eudora had always treated gambling as entertainment and she had never liked to guess the cards in her opponent's hands. At this moment, she let out a sigh of relief, thinking that the matter at hand had now come to an end.
"I suppose we could consider this matter resolved then."
While she was thinking of ways to invite Amos out discreetly, Amos had already stood up with a smile on his face. "I lost the bet. As promised, I'll let this matter go."
After that, he turned and went out.
Raymond, who was following behind, was dying to see Eudora make a fool of herself. He didn't think that she would actually succeed.
At this moment, Leslie didn't have time to think about what the guest really had in mind. Taking advantage of this good opportunity, he immediately introduced Eudora to the employees in the casinos. After all, this could be considered her first battle of victory.
There was a brief uproar, and Leslie wanted to bring Eudora around the casino to have a look. However, Eudora was no longer in the mood after experiencing that encounter she had with Amos. "I'll come back tomorrow! I still have something else to take care of."
Leslie wanted to send her home, but Eudora refused his offer. She then drove out of the club on her own.
Eudora's heart was in turmoil, and she was speeding on the road. When she was just about to turn at the intersection, a car rushed out from the other side all of sudden.
Eudora turned the steering wheel hurriedly and avoided the car narrowly.
At the intersection across the road, Amos was leaning against the car and looking ahead with a cigarette in his hand.
Jayden was curious, but he didn't dare to ask. He didn't understand what had just happened. Mr. Granger had postponed his schedule in the company to come all the way to Greene City to gamble. However, the itch to gamble was understandable. It was not uncommon to look for means to relax when one was feeling stressed. However, Mr. Granger had lost to them on purpose.
He couldn't understand why Amos had deliberately tried to lose.
At this moment, a car rushed out in front of them. It almost collided with a car that was coming out of another alley.
Jayden saw the person in the car with his sharp eyes. "Hey, it's the young lady just now..."
Before he could finish his words, Amos, who was smoking next to him, had darted to the road like an arrow.
Jayden froze for a moment and then hurried to catch up with him.
Eudora was still in shock. She heard someone banging on her door once the car came to a halt. She opened the door subconsciously, and before she could see who it was, she was hugged by someone with a broad chest.
Eudora was stunned. The man's voice was filled with deep concern.
"Are you okay? I'll take you to the hospital!"
Eudora's heart clenched. Amos? She subconsciously took a deep breath. She recognized the familiar scent instantly!
It belonged to Amos, whom she missed so much. The scent made her calm down immediately.
Jayden had already caught up to them. He was stunned to see Amos holding the woman tightly in his arms. He didn't understand the situation at hand, but he turned his head away in a hurry.
Eudora removed herself from Amos' embrace hurriedly. "Thank you, Mr. Granger! I'm fine!"
Thankfully, she had her seat belt fastened and made a turn in time, so there was no collision. She was fine.
Amos could sense the fragrance in his arms disappearing in an instant. He felt an urge to reach out and grab it, but in the end, he froze mid-air.
"I'm glad that you're fine!" He said with a smile.
"HI... take my leave first then!" Eudora then turned to get in her car.
Amos held the door of her car. "It was a close call, and you must be terrified. You're not in the right state of mind to drive right now. Where are you going? I'll send you there!"
"That won't be necessary!" Eudora shook her head hurriedly. She couldn't let Amos send her back. What if Tyler found out about it? What would happen to him then?
However, Amos was not planning to let her leave so easily. He pressed the door of Eudora's car and changed his mind.
"Didn't we agree just now that the winner could command the loser to do anything that he asks for? It's obvious that I've let you won! Now, I'm going to send you back. You are not allowed to reject my offer." Eudora was confused.
"You're the one who wanted to let me win. I didn't force you to do it, did I? Who asked you to do that?"
Eudora glared at him furiously. Amos looked at her and smiled bitterly in his heart.
"That's because I wasn't willing to let you lose..."
Eudora paused.
She looked at Amos' sunken face and blurted out, "Why do you look much thinner than before?" Amos' eyes lit up. "Are you worried about me?"
