My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 251
Eudora George was still lying on the bed and she had yet to wake up. However, the warmth was beginning to return to her body.
Amos Granger reached out to help her up. He whispered to her, "Eudora, get up and eat something."
Eudora was still in a trance and she seemed to be mumbling something under her breath. Amos leaned over hurriedly to listen to what she was saying. He then realized that she was calling his name over and over again. "Amos, I'm sorry..."
Amos' heart tightened. She had already fallen sick and yet she was still apologizing to him.
It was obvious that he was the one who should be sorry! He held her hurriedly in his arms, "Eudora, don't say that. It's my fault. When I called home yesterday, I should have known that something was off wher I didn't get to hear your voice. I trusted others too much. I did not expect this to happen. It's all my fault."
Eudora was still in a daze and Amos was getting a little anxious. When he turned to see that Juju had finished eating, he told her, "Juju, could you please head over to the living room to wait for us?" Juju frowned but she eventually agreed.
After Juju left, Amos took a sip of the soup and lowered his head to transfer the soup onto Eudora's lips. Eudora was still in a daze and she did not know what was going on. However, she could smell Amos' familiar scent.
She gradually calmed down in her sleep and let Amos feed her.
After Amos was done feeding Eudora, he took the medicine out and fed it to her. Then, he brought Juju back into the room, "Juju, keep your Mommy company for the meantime. I'll go out for a while." Juju was taken aback. She shouted instinctively, "Are you going to leave us again?"
Amos shook his head and stroked Juju's head. "No, I'm not!"
Amos immediately went to the Old Master's room. The assistant had already told the Old Master everything.
"The Young Master smashed the door and took Miss George and Juju out from the room. Miss George had already fainted while Juju was very frightened. I think the Young Master must be very angry this time!"
The Old Master, "How could she have fainted? Didn't I ask someone to send quilts to the room?"
"There were no quilts inside..."
The Old Master frowned even more, "What about the things that I had asked you to investigate? How is it going?"
The assistant replied hurriedly, "I'm still on it but I haven't found anything yet..." At this moment, Amos pushed the door open and entered the room. He eyed the Old Master coldly, "Is this part of our agreement? You did not keep your promise. If this is how you are going to honor your words, then I have nothing else to say! I'll leave with them now!"
The Old Master did not expect that Amos would say such words as soon as he came home. Hence, he immediately scolded, "Enough with this nonsense! Stop right there!"
Amos frowned, "What else do you want to explain?"
Old Master Granger glanced at his assistant, "Leave the room and close the door. Don't come in without my permission."
The assistant immediately turned to leave. The Old Master then instructed to Amos, "Sit down!"
Amos sat on the sofa reluctantly. The Old Master then sat on the sofa across him and said, "Do you know the whole story?"
Amos pursed his lips, "Of course."
"Since you already know everything, then you should think about this matter carefully. Why did I send them there? I may not like Eudora, but I know clearly whether she is the kind of person who would hurt others or not!"
Amos's eyes darkened, "So, do you know who was the one who did it?"
The Old Master's face was dark as well. "I've already told you, you would always lose your temper and your ability to think whenever Eudora's involved. How would I be at ease to let you two be together?" Amos's face darkened, "We're the same, you and I. I've probably just inherited this trait from you!"
The Old Master said through gritted teeth, "You d*mned boy, are trying to lecture your father?"
Amos could not be bothered to argue with him, hence he asked, "Did you replace anything?"
"No!" The Old Master continued, "There's no clues for the time being."
"Leave it to me then!" Amos then got up to leave. He took two steps and he suddenly turned to ask, "I heard that the paternity test is out. Is Vincent really Hank's son?"
Old Master Granger nodded.
"That's great!" Amos continued, "In that case, I'll agree to not take Eudora and Juju away, but Tiffany and Vincent must move out of the Ruby House immediately. Also, I will rearrange all the servants in Ruby House myself. I will arrange the meals myself as well. In the future, we will not interfere with each other's lives anymore."
He then slammed the door and left the room without waiting for the Old Master's answer.
The Old Master took a deep breath and asked the butler to come in to make some arrangements.
Eudora had already woken up with Juju lying in her arms when Amos returned. Juju was staring at her mother worriedly. "Mommy, I thought I was going to lose you."
Eudora shook her head hurriedly, "Nonsense, I'm fine, right?" Her eyes lit up when she spotted Amos, "You're back?"
Her eyes were as beautiful as ever. Even after everything that had happened, she still held no resentment towards him.
Amos was distressed and he walked over to pull Eudora into his arms. "I'm sorry for being late."
Eudora was a little embarrassed because Juju was still there. Thus, she pushed him away hurriedly, "What are you doing? Juju is still here!"
Juju did not say a word. Amos then said, "I just told my father that Tiffany and her child will move out of Ruby House immediately. Try not to have any contact with them in the future."
Eudora nodded, "What do you think about the poisoning?"
Amos pursed his lips, "I haven't found anything yet..."
Eudora was also confused after thinking about it. At first, she was sure that Tiffany was the culprit but Tiffany's acting was too real that even she was a little uncertain.
"We don't have any evidence, so we could only remain quiet this time. However, I will be more careful next time! I will protect myself."
Eudora said smilingly.
Amos' heart ached even more. He had promised to protect her, but now, she had to protect herself.
"I'll try my best to stay at home from now..."
"No!" Eudora said hurriedly. "You are a man. You should be taking care of your business. Juju and I still have to rely on you in the future. What if we have no money in the future? I won't let it happen." The little woman was still very lively when she said that and it made her look like a little fox.
Amos could not help but laugh, "I will have enough money for you two even if I stop working."
"That's hard to say! Our little princess will need a lot of money in the future, am I right, Juju?"
In fact, Eudora had already realized that the relationship between Juju and Amos had suddenly become a little stiff, so she said this deliberately to bring Juju into the conversation.
Juju nodded reluctantly, "Yes!"
Eudora turned to glare at Amos, "Go back to work. Our little princess is already angry!"
