My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 423
Eudora was very saddened by the thought that Amos might drive her out of the house.
Amos was such an ideal man. Although she had lost her memories, she could still feel his love for her.
He was the perfect man for her, and if she could, she really wanted to be with him for the rest of her life. However, they were not the masters of their fate. They had endured many agonies and obstacles in this life.
If there were a next life, she would never let go of him.
Eudora's eyes became wet, and a drop of tear could be seen sliding down her face. This alerted Juju and she grabbed Eudora's hand at once.
"Mommy, are you crying?"
Eudora shook her head hurriedly and reached out to wipe that tear away.
"No, there's just a bug near my eye."
"Let me blow it off for you then!" Juju tiptoed and blew on Eudora's eyes as though she was already a full-grown lady.
Eudora felt even more upset after looking at her caring daughter.
Fortunately, Amos had come over in the nick of time. Eudora scrambled to gather her emotions as she stood up. Amos didn't head to them but went to the saleslady instead.
The saleslady immediately greeted and explained, "Sir, this is Miss George's shopping bill. Please have a look at it. The total is..."
The saleslady reported an astronomical figure. Eudora was ridiculing herself deep down. She might have broken the Guinness World Records for the amount of money an individual could spend on a single purchase!
Amos looked at the list, and his face darkened slightly.
Eudora knew that no man could see a bill like that and not get mad. It was simply too much and unreasonable. All of her purchases were made haphazardly, without any logic or reason. No man would want such a prodigal woman.
At this moment, Amos looked up at her, "Eudora..."
Eudora's heart shivered. The moment that she had expected was approaching. What was he going to say?
She subconsciously covered Juju's ears. Even if Amos wanted to scold her, she did not want Juju to listen to them. Unexpectedly, in the next second, Amos said softly.
"Why didn't you buy a cabinet? Didn't you say this morning that the cabinet needed to be replaced as well?"
Eudora was utterly dumbfounded.
"Hm?" Charlie and Wesley, who were standing next to them, were also flabbergasted. What was going on? They had bought so much furniture. Did they leave out a cabinet?
"Come and have a look!" Amos stretched his hand out and pulled the dumbfounded Eudora over.
"Look, you bought a dining table, a closet, and curtains, but there's no cabinet. Is this place not to your liking? In that case, I'll take you somewhere else to have a look."
After that, Amos took out his card and said, "I'll pay with my card."
Eudora panicked and grabbed his hand, "Amos, are you mad?"
"I'm just paying the bill!" Amos said, "Isn't it natural for the wife to go shopping, and the husband to pay the bill?"
Eudora pursed her lips and said, "Amos, couldn't you see that all the things I have bought are of no use?"
"Who told you that? I need all of them!"
Amos said.
"But... they are all awful-looking!" Eudora said in a low voice. She looked a little adorable, and Amos couldn't help but curl his lips, "They are all nice! You've always had a good judgment for aesthetics." Eudora felt helpless.
"But I had bought the unappealing ones on purpose! I was deliberately trying to make the house look ugly. Don't you hate me for doing so?"
Amos then took her hand with a warm smile. "You are so adorable. Why would I hate you?"
As soon as he said this, everyone around them became extremely envious of Eudora. Charlie and Wesley, on the other hand, were unfazed by such words. After all, President Granger would say such jaw- dropping words to express his affection ever since Miss George became his wife. They were already accustomed to it!
However, the two salesladies next to them couldn't seem to keep their calm. Both of them looked at Eudora with a confused and envious look.
How blessed was she!
This man was so handsome and, at the same time, doting on his woman.
She was at the pinnacle of life!
She must now be reaping all the good karma of her previous life!
Even Eudora herself was dazed as she went through a roller coaster of emotions. She couldn't express herself because she obviously wanted Amos to hate her. Yet, he didn't seem to have any resentment on his face.
Just as she was in a daze, Amos handed his credit card to the saleslady.
"Let's pay with this card!"
The saleslady immediately went to complete the payment. Eudora then frantically shouted, "Wait, I don't..."
Amos had already given her a warm smile before she could even finish her sentence. "Just buy whatever you like. It's fine as long as you are happy."
Eudora was at a loss for words.
She felt a stab in her heart after looking at the long receipt. What an unnecessary waste!
On the way back, Eudora thought about it in her heart and felt that Amos must have been born with a silver spoon in his mouth. Perhaps that was why he was not bothered about spending that big amount of money.
For example, if a child only had two cookies and was forced to give one to someone else, he would then be upset and angry.
However, he had a hundred cookies, it would certainly be a joy to share some of them with others.
Therefore, although she felt that she had spent a lot, it was probably just one cookie out of a hundred for Amos. Maybe even half a piece. That must be the reason he was not upset at all!
It seemed that the idea of spending money lavishly was counterproductive. She should use other methods to provoke Amos instead.
Eudora thought about it and felt that she should start from what Amos cared about the most.
For example, cooking. Amos loved her pork chops, honey glazed ribs, and stir-fried asparagus.
Cooking was something she did routinely and was relatively good at. Therefore, she could cook poorly deliberately, then Amos will be unpleased with it, right? He would feel that she was disrespecting him... After the thought of it, Eudora eventually gave up the plan of spending unreasonably. She then instructed the driver,
"Let's go to the grocery market."
The driver hesitated and turned to look at Amos. It was because Amos had planned a schedule for Eudora, and he was very strict with it. Therefore, at that hour, he would definitely not allow Eudora to go to the grocery market.
Amos knew in his heart that Eudora, being the stubborn person she had always been, must have come up with other plans after her previous one did not go as well as she had expected.
However, none of that mattered. She could do anything as long as she was happy.
"Go ahead!"
Amos said.
The driver immediately turned the car around and headed to the grocery market.
The floor of the market was slippery, and there was water everywhere. When Eudora went in, she found herself being held by Amos.
His large hands were holding her steadily, not giving anyone the slightest chance to harm her. For a moment, Eudora's heart began to waver.
Where would she replace another man like Amos? She might as well just forget such plans! She should just pretend that nothing had happened and live out the rest of her life happily with Amos. However, she immediately dismissed such thoughts.
It would be unfair to Amos. If that part of her memory had not returned, she could then pretend that nothing had occurred. However, since she already knew, how could she continue to pretend then?
She couldn't do it!
