My mystery lover novel (Richard and Amy)
Chapter 122 Amy's Mother

"Stephen? Is it you?" Stephen was shopping in the supermarket. Recently, his daughter had returned to the villa. He was alone, but now since he had no business affairs to deal with., he lived a relaxing and regular life.

Stephen heard someone calling him, so he turned around and saw a beautiful lady looking at him.

Stephen looked at the lady and was surprised. He was so excited that the bag in his hands fell to the ground.

"Eliana?" Stephen called out softly, but he couldn't move a step, as if he were frozen.

Eliana walked over and held Stephen's hands. Looking at him carefully, Eliana began to wail.

She came back to look for him and their daughter. She had found he was abroad for treating heart disease.

"Don't cry. A crying woman is not pretty. My Eliana is the most beautiful woman in the world. Don't cry." Stephen wanted to wipe Eliana's tears, but he raised his hand and put it down again. He couldn't do that anymore.

So Stephen took out a tissue from his bag and handed it to Eliana.

"You are still a smooth talker, Stephen." Eliana took the tissue and wiped her tears. She felt that she owed Stephen a lot.

"How long have you been back? Have you seen our daughter?" Stephen asked Eliana.

"Almost half a year. I've seen Amy. You've taught her well. I'm very grateful to you. Stephen, let's go and have some tea, shall me?" Eliana had calmed down.

Just as she was in the car, she saw Stephen by accident. She hurriedly stopped the driver and followed Stephen to the supermarket. The supermarket was so big that she walked around back and forth before replaceing Stephen at the place where vegetables were offered.

"Sounds good." Stephen knew this day would come.

"Stephen, I remember that Rode tea is your favorite tea, right?" Eliana ordered Rode tea for Stephen.

"It's kind of you to remember my preference. Thank you, Eliana." Stephen picked up the teacup, but he couldn't enjoy the tea.

The atmosphere was stale. Eliana did not know where to start. The person she owed the most in her life was Stephen.

Stephen didn't know what to say, either. He was honest, and even was a little stupid.

"Stephen."

"Eliana." After thinking for a long time, the two of them called out each other's names at the same time.

"You first." The two of them said at the same time, again.

"Okay. I'll start." Stephen felt that since he was a man, he definitely had to break the ice.

"Amy is a good girl. She has never complained during the years you've been absent. She may be too young to remember you." Stephen reported to Eliana about Amy's past life.

Stephen was telling everything about Amy in detail, from kindergarten to college, but he was a little confused about Amy's marriage.

Eliana wiped her tears as she smiled and listened to him.

"Thank you, Stephen." Eliana was very grateful to Stephen.

"I've treated Amy as my own daughter. I'm her father for the last 21 years. That's enough for me. Since you've all come back, take her back to live a decent life. I'm broke now, and I can't give her anything anymore." When he said the last sentence, Stephen was sad as if his heart were stabbed by a knife.

Amy was his everything. He could no longer give her the best life, so he could only give up. He just hoped that Amy could live a better life.

"No. I'm not here to take her away from you. I know that Amy is indispensable in your life. I just want to look at her from afar." How could Eliana take Amy away from Stephen who helped her a lot?

When Amy was born, Eliana was not in good health. It was Stephen who took care of Amy at night. He could stay up all night and go to work as usual in the daytime.

Eliana knew that Stephen was good to Amy, so she trusted him with her daughter.

"Thank you, Stephen." Eliana did not know how to convey her appreciation, so she could only keep saying thank you.

"You don't need to thank me. Amy is also my daughter although she has no blood relationship with me. If you don't care the fact that I am broke, I am still willing to take care of Amy." Stephen smiled, but his smile was bitter.

The two of them talked for a while. Eliana had known that Stephen's company was bankrupt. It was the son of the Wilson family who tricked Stephen.

After the two parted, Eliana gave a phone call, "Well, stop working with Wilson Group. If they have any questions, ask them to talk with me."

"Dad, I'm going home for dinner tonight. Richard will go with me." It has been many days since she came out. Amy missed Stephen very much and wanted to go back to see him.

"Okay, Daddy will make your favorite food." Stephen was originally afraid that Eliana would take Amy away, but Eliana allowed him to continue to take care of Amy.

At this time, Amy called him, which made him happier.

He hadn't remarried for fear that Amy shouldn't be taken good care of. Amy was Stephen's sweetheart. He couldn't love Amy more.

After he hung up, Stephen went to the market for ingredients of today's dinner. It was a big deal for him since his daughter and son-in-law would come back.

"Amy, why are you smiling all the time?" Richard, who had asked Amy to help read the documents for two days, had no excuse and had to read the documents by himself. "Because I'm happy." Amy was happy when she found Richard didn't care about her past. Wasn't it so fabulous that the husband and wife were candid with each other?

"Oh, tell me why you are so happy." Richard had never found that he was very disgusted with those boring documents. With Amy staying with him, he simply could not focus on his work.

"No, don't come over. Go back to work." Amy hurriedly waved her hands. Last night, she was so tired, but Richard was still full of vigor and vitality on bed. Moreover, she thought he was still sick. "If you're here, I can't focus on my work." Richard had walked over and hugged Amy on his laps.

"Then I can only leave now. I don't want to be accused of disturbing the president's work." Amy pushed Richard, wanting him to let go of her.0000
