Amos Granger's hands were clenched into fists. He wanted to walk forward. However, he suddenly remembered what she said before she left, 'Thank you.'
Was she thanking him for letting her go?
All of a sudden, his mobile phone rang. Auntie Agnes said, "Sir, Miss Liam..."
Christopher Gellert closed the car door before Auntie Agnes finished speaking.
Amos watched as Christopher drove his girlfriend away. However, Auntie Agnes was still nagging on the phone. All of sudden, he threw his mobile phone to the ground.
It was finally quiet now...
Christopher turned on the heater in his car. Eudora George felt more comfortable after getting into his car.
"Let me send you to the hospital first!" Christopher said.
"It's okay. It's just a minor injury." Eudora said.
Seeing that Eudora was reluctant to go to the hospital, Christopher nodded his head and said, "Okay, let's go to my house then. I have a first aid kit in my house."
"No!" Eudora rejected him immediately. "I've already caused you a lot of trouble. How can I stay in your house?"
Christopher frowned and said, "It seems that you still don't treat me as your friend."
Eudora joked, "I really don't dare to treat you as a friend. You are my boss!"
Christopher had no choice but to ask her, "Where do you want to go then?"
Eudora said, "Can you lend me some money? I'll return it to you after getting my salary."
Christopher said, "You don't have to pay me back!" Then, he took out a card from his pocket and handed it to Eudora.
He continued, "The password is the last six digits of my phone number. You can use this card!"
Eudora didn't want to borrow so much money from him. However, she had no choice. She promised that she would pay him back the money once she received her salary.
Christopher sent Eudora to a hotel.
He left after bringing Eudora to the hotel room.
Unexpectedly, Christopher came back after Eudora took her shower.
He was holding a first aid kit and some clothes. He said, "I don't know what type of clothes you like. So, I just simply chose one. After all, you have to wear some clothes to work tomorrow. The first aid kit is for the wounds on your feet. Please remember to apply the medication."
Eudora was touched. She did not have any other feelings towards Christopher. All she felt was gratitude.
"Thank you, I will definitely pay you back once I get my salary."
Christopher frowned and hesitated before asking.
"What happened between you and Amos? Did you break up with him?"
Eudora pursed her lips and said, "I don't want to talk about this now, is that okay?"
Christopher took a deep breath and said, "Ah, forget it then. Please rest well. I'm going back now. Please don't come to the office if you haven't recovered yet."
"I can go to work!" Eudora said immediately. She needed money. How could she not go to work?
"I really can go to work. But I'll come in an hour late because I have to buy a new laptop first."
Christopher nodded his head and said, "Okay!"
Eudora applied some medicine on her feet after Christopher left. Then, she lay down on the bed.
The bed in the hotel was really big. Eudora was not used to sleeping alone on a big bed.
She smiled bitterly. She thought that it was a terrible feeling to get used to being lonely.
Eudora woke up early the next morning.
After getting ready in the morning, she went to buy a laptop. The laptop that she had been using belonged to Amos. Fortunately, she had already submitted all the design drafts on the laptop. After buying a new laptop, Eudora went straight to office.
She heard her colleagues discussing something when she just walked in.
