My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 1012
Naomi hadn't gone to work for a few days, so she had to catch up on her work in the company. After a busy day, she was worn out and dizzy by the time she got off work. As soon as she went downstairs, she received a call from the hospital.
"Is this Miss George? Excuse me, have you seen Mr. Luther? He went out this afternoon and hasn't come back!"
Naomi was astonished. All her tiredness was gone in an instant.
"Did he go out alone?"
"Yes! He said he wanted to go home to get something, but then he didn't come back. We can't get in touch with his relatives, so we can only contact you."
"Got it. I'll go to his house at once!"
After hanging up on the call, she took a taxi without hesitation and headed straight for Nelson's house.
She had never been to his house in the past. However, Nelson had told her once about its location.
Based on her memory, she found his place successfully. Upon arrival, she quickly went over and rang the doorbell.
The door was not locked. She simply tried to turn the doorknob and it opened.
She went in quickly while shouting, "Nelson!"
In the next second, a long bang sounded and a banded cloth fell from above. Before she knew it, she was surrounded by tons of flowers and balloons, a dreamlike moment. It left her totally flabbergasted.
Meanwhile, Nelson was standing in the corridor upstairs, with a remote control in his hand and a drone beside him.
There was a small box under the drone, which contained an engagement ring that he had personally prepared for Naomi.
After he had called her 'Mrs. Luther' during their conversation that morning, the idea of proposing to Naomi suddenly came to his mind.
Actually, he had wanted to marry her a long time ago. It was just that he felt like it was finally the perfect day for him to do it.
He controlled the drone to fly downstairs slowly.
In the next second, another bang sounded.
The balloons in front of Naomi scattered.
After that, it was the same for the flowers. They fell one after another, like a domino.
Naomi was perplexed as she said, "Have I come to the wrong house?"
Nelson couldn't help but sigh and feel exasperated. What a silly girl she was!
Just as he was about to call her name, she seemed to hear the sound of the drone, which was coming from above her head. Then, with a wave of her hand, the drone fell to the ground with a bang. It split into pieces.
In the midst of the chaos, she shouted Nelson's name apprehensively.
"Nelson, where are you?"
Nelson couldn't bear to watch her in a distraught state, therefore he immediately went downstairs and walked towards her.
"Naomi!"
"Nelson, you are at home! That's great, I thought I came to the wrong house. A staff from the hospital called me and said that you came out in the afternoon. Why didn't you go back afterwards?" Nelson put on a solemn face.
Placing his hands on her shoulders, he maintained a dignified tone while he was speaking.
"Don't you replace anything different about me?" Hearing that, Naomi looked at him carefully.
"Why are you wearing a suit? Tell me, did you go to the company again in the afternoon? You lied that you came back to pick up something. I knew it, you must have gone to work! I know that you are a responsible man, but your body hasn't recovered yet. The most important thing now is to take care of yourself first."
Nelson facepalmed again as he said, "It's not that. I'm wearing a tuxedo!"
That was an obvious hint.
Naomi replied, "Oh, are you going to attend a banquet?"
"That's not it! What do you think the flowers and balloons are for?"
Then only Naomi came to a realization and said, "I got it!"
Nelson finally showed a smile with relief and continued, "I want to..."
Before he could finish proposing, Naomi had already stretched out her hands to take off his blazer.
"You're disobedient! The hospital staff are still looking for you. You're in poor health at the moment, yet you still want to have a party at home. Do you know that you should be responsible for your own health?" Nelson was at a loss for words.
He held her hand and said, "You silly girl! I asked a staff from the hospital to assist me in my plan. I've actually already been discharged from the hospital!"
Naomi was suspicious so she asked, "You genuinely have been discharged?"
"Yeah, it's true! And these things are not for a house party!" As he was speaking, he rummaged through the decorative items on the ground and found the small box.
"I made these arrangements because I wanted to propose to you! I was told that girls like romantic guys. So, I thought you would like this very much!"
However, he finally understood that his girlfriend was different from other girls as he looked at the wreckage in front of him.
However, her differences made her stand out!
Naomi was shocked and hurriedly apologized, "I'm sorry, I didn't do it on purpose!"
She was just too anxious and forgot that she was quite the strong one. Hence, she accidentally knocked down the drone.
Nelson shook his head as he replied, "It's fine. As long as you are here, all those things are merely pieces of props. You are the star of the show!"
Then, he knelt down on one knee and opened the small box.
"Mrs. Luther, will you marry me?"
Naomi nodded unhesitatingly and said, "Yes!"
Nelson couldn't help but laugh when he saw how rapid her response was.
"Mrs. Luther, you are so eager! Aren't girls supposed to be more reserved?"
Naomi was at a loss for words.
"So, do you want me to be reserved now?"
Nelson got up and embraced her. He said, "Forget it!"
"May I kiss you?"
Naomi's heart skipped a beat. Subconsciously, she closed her eyes. Looking at her reaction, Nelson chuckled again before he lowered his head to plant a kiss on her lips. Although the props had been destroyed, the proposal culminated with a passionate kiss.
In the middle of the night, Naomi was so hungry that her stomach growled. She couldn't sleep eventually, thus she opened her eyes.
It just so happened that she met Nelson's round eyes.
"Are you hungry?"
The two of them spoke simultaneously, and then burst into laughter together.
"I skipped dinner!"
Nelson agreed and then suggested, "Same here! There's some spaghetti in the kitchen. I'll reheat it for you!"
"Let me do it. You are a patient, so you should rest!"
Not at ease, Nelson asked again, "Are you sure you can do it? Although I can fix the kitchen if you blow it up, I don't want to do so while having an empty stomach!" Naomi turned red and started stammering, "Th-then, will you help me?"
"That's a good idea!"
They got up and went to the kitchen together. A moment later, the sound of pots and pants colliding could be heard, which was quite uplifting.
At the same time, Eudora, who was recuperating at the resort, had also woken up.
Looking at the dark night through the window, she murmured worriedly.
"I wonder how Naomi doing at home. Are we really going to leave her alone?"
Amos took her into his arms and said, "Mrs. Granger, you're being disobedient. You promised me to rest. Why are you being uneasy again? What's more, you were the one who was optimistic about their relationship, weren't you?"
Eudora was rendered speechless.
She turned her body around downheartedly and ignored Amos. However, she was pulled back the next moment.
"If you're not at ease, how about we go back home?"
"Forget it! She has to lead her own life, and learn what is right and what is wrong. We can't protect her forever!" Eudora turned to Amos and said.
