One Night Stand With That Beggar

The Granger Mansion had been well taken care of, so there was nothing for Naomi to worry about. Hence, she decided to go straight back to Clearwater Bay.

Amos and Eudora were not around. Although Clearwater Bay was in Cindy’s care, it still felt desolate.

In the evening, Cindy prepared a lot of delicious food for Naomi!

“Your parents don’t know that you’re back in Rosaville City, right?”

“No, they don’t!” Naomi said after taking a sip of the mushroom soup. “Mom is in poor health, therefore I haven’t told her yet. I’ll go see her once I’m done with the matters here.”

“That’s great! She must miss you and Sugar Bun.”

“What about you?” Naomi looked at Cindy with a smile. “Is everything alright between you and Uncle Charlie?”

“Everything is fine! With everyone supervising him, he doesn’t dare treat me badly!”

As the two of them talked, Charlie protested from the outside.

“Are you talking behind my back again with Miss Naomi?”

Charlie entered with a bag of snacks in his hand.

“What’s the matter? Can’t I talk bad about you?” Cindy glared at him.

“Women are so troublesome!”

Then, he put the bag of snacks into Cindy’s arms.

“Eat less! If you get any fatter, you’ll become an elephant!”

“How dare you say that? Charlie, you’re dead for sure!”

Naomi could not help but smile as she watched the two bicker lovingly. Perhaps it was because of the two of them that the deserted house became a little warmer.

Naomi had a good night’s rest in her own bed that day.

…

The next morning.

After preparing some cream puffs, Naomi hugged Cindy.

“Auntie Cindy really understands me. I mentioned yesterday that I would bring some cream puffs for Vincent, and you’ve made them!”

Cindy glanced at her and said, “I remember you would always ask for cream puffs when you’re back. Who’s Vincent, though?”

Upon hearing that name, Cindy was in a daze for a moment before she recalled.

“Is he living alone now?”

Cindy knew about the things that had happened with Nelson. However, it had been so many years, and she had forgotten the name ‘Vincent Granger’.

“That’s right! I remember when we were still in the Granger Mansion, he loved eating cream puffs too.”

“What a pitiful child,” Cindy sighed. “If it wasn’t for his mom, he wouldn’t have ended up like this. Sigh! It’s all destiny! Take more for him. However, tell him not to eat too much at once as he’s in poor health now. He can put the remaining puffs in the refrigerator.”

“Alright!”

Naomi smiled.

Then, Naomi left with the cream puffs prepared by Cindy.

There were many cars in Clearwater Bay, but Naomi chose a modest one. When she arrived at Vincent’s residence, his door was already open.

Naomi put down the cream puffs.

She joked as she walked in, “Don’t tell me you’re up so early because you want to exercise!”

There was no answer.

Naomi searched the living room before entering the bedroom.

Everything was still the same as the day before in the bedroom.

She began to feel a little anxious.

She turned around and was about to run out when she saw Culver walking in from outside.

“What’s wrong?”

“Vincent seems to be missing!” Naomi said anxiously. “I’ve searched the entire house, but there isn’t a single person inside!”

“Don’t panic first. Could he be at the hospital?”

Naomi immediately made a phone call to the hospital. The hospital said that he was not there.

Things were taking a turn for the worse.

How could an adult man disappear into thin air?

Just as she was at a loss of what to do, her phone rang.

Naomi quickly answered, and Vincent’s voice came from the other end. He said, “Don’t look for me. I’ve already left!”

“Where did you go?” Naomi asked.

“I’m going on a vacation!” Vincent’s voice sounded incredibly carefree.

“You’re crazy!” Naomi was angry. “Don’t you know that you shouldn’t be running about at a time like this?”

“This is exactly the perfect time for me to leave!” Vincent cut her off. “Alright, don’t worry about me! I know my body very well! You should live your life! I’ll give you a call when I feel like I can’t make it. You’d better come by then!”

Naomi said, “Vincent!”

However, he had already hung up on her!

Naomi hurriedly walked out, saying, “No, this won’t do. I’ll ask Uncle Clint to help me locate him. He’s playing with his own life!”

“Actually, I think you should respect his will.”

Culver said, “He has worked so hard his entire life. Now that he’s finally able to live for himself, why do you want to stop him?”

Naomi frowned, “But his illness…”Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

“Being in a good mood can make his condition deteriorate a little slower. The most important thing now is that he’s doing it on his own volition, right?”

“What you said does make sense.”

“Then, let him do whatever he wants!” Culver pursed his lips. “You’ve worked hard too, so take a rest.”

“Alright!” Naomi nodded. “You too.”

Naomi looked around the house. Vincent had already planned everything beforehand as he had placed the key and other important items on the table.

She checked the house again to ensure that everything was in order. Then, she locked the door, threw the key into her bag, and drove away.

Culver looked at Naomi’s back and thought of something. Then, he called Aaron.

Then, he called Aaron, “The market in Rosaville City is good. Please call the other departments to have an online meeting tonight. Let’s have a discussion about Rosaville City’s market.”

Aaron followed his orders accordingly, but he could not help thinking, “Is he doing it for the market or for a certain someone who lives in Rosaville City?”

However, he only dared to say those words in his heart!

…..

Vincent left, and the company was also gone.

Naomi suddenly felt her life to be overly peaceful. She would eat and sleep at her own house, but after doing so for three days, she was bored.

In the end, she could not help but find Clint.

“Uncle Clint, please let me go to work!”

Clint put down the document in his hand and asked, “You don’t want to start your own business anymore?”

Naomi was rendered speechless.

“I failed to start my own business, so I’ve decided to go back to the company to learn more about the business world! Once I know the ins and outs of running a business, I’ll start over again.”

Clint nodded, “If you had thought about that earlier, you wouldn’t have suffered such a loss! Alright, I’ll ask President Granger about this and I’ll give you an answer tomorrow!”

“What? Do you still need to ask my father?”

“Of course! Your father is the backbone of the company, therefore I must ask him! Just wait for my answer!”

…

At the same time, on a distant island.

Amos handed the medicine to Eudora. When the phone rang, he frowned and turned it off.

Eudora quickly picked it up, “Clint is looking for you. Hurry and pick it up!”

“There’s no rush. It must be about some trivial matters in the company. I’ll reply to him later.”

“You’re free now. Why would you do that?”

“Who says I’m free? I’m serving my wife, aren’t I?”

Exasperated, Eudora retorted, “I’ll pick it up then!”

“Forget it, I’ll answer the call!” Amos picked up the phone and asked, “What’s the matter?”

Clint told Amos everything, “Miss Naomi wants to help out in the company.”

“Go ahead and make the arrangements! I have no problem with that.”

After that, Amos looked at Eudora, who sat in front of the TV, and said in a low voice, “Don’t tell Eudora about this.”
