My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 426
As she was at home, Eudora was just wearing a very simple dress. It was a loose kind, suitable for house wear.
She didn't put on any makeup as she was pregnant. Although she was still as beautiful as before, she still looked a little underdressed given the occasion, where countless attractive women were dressed flamboyantly.
However, she insisted on not changing her clothes. No one could do anything to persuade her.
Surprisingly, Amos looked unconcerned either. In the end, everyone had to go with Eudora's wishes.
When the three of them arrived at the scene, someone immediately came to welcome them. Amos took a look at Eudora and shook his head, "You don't have to worry about us. We'll be fine by ourselves." Those who were in the top management of TEM Inc knew that Amos was their boss, but that wasn't the case for most of the ordinary staff.
In fact, it felt quite liberating to be left alone in this way!
When the staff noticed Amos's insistence, they did not say anything again.
After the employees had left, Eudora casually entered the venue with Juju. Just as expected, there were really a lot of attractive women here. Everyone was used to working intensively on their usual working days and it was rare to attend such a party. Hence, they all put in the extra effort in dressing up to present the best versions of themselves at the event!
Strictly speaking, this was not a normal dinner party, but a social meetup instead.
Eudora looked around and saw that several men and women were having a lively conversation, seemingly very passionate over the matter.
Thinking of this, she looked back at Amos.
Amos was afraid that others would bump into Eudora given her fast pace. It would be dangerous for her! Hence, he quickly walked over and tried to support her.
Eudora simply refused, "I don't need your help. Juju and I will head over there. Don't mind us. You may carry on with your affairs on your own."
After saying that, she led Juju away as they looked for a seat and sat down.
However, Amos did not go about his own business as Eudora wished. He came along and sat down beside her as well.
Eudora pursed her lips and pointed her fingers at a woman with an extremely seductive figure not far ahead.
She looked to be around 1.7 meters tall. Paired with high heels, the woman's slender and well-proportioned figure was clad in a bodycon red dress, which outlined all her curves.
As a woman, Eudora felt jealous and envious at the sight of such an attractive lady.
The woman turned to look at Amos, but he didn't even spare her a glance.
Eudora determinedly asked Amos," Look at the pretty lady in front of us. Isn't she beautiful?"
Amos glanced at the woman casually and said lightly, "Not as beautiful as you."
Eudora was flabbergasted.
Was it true? It was obvious that the seductive woman was better looking than Eudora. It was fine when Amos said that Eudora was good-looking in the past, but at this moment, she was dressed like a middle- aged woman and was devoid of any attractive figure. How could Eudora still be deemed as beautiful?
Amos seemed to realize what was going on in her mind and said faintly.
"You are beautiful in every possible way."
Eudora frowned and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Meanwhile, the seductive woman, who was named Linda, had been attracted by Amos at his first glance. Initially, she went to the party hoping for some romantic encounters. The man in front of her was noble and elegant, unlike any ordinary man.
In particular, when Linda entered the hall, many men raised their heads and ran their eyes over her body without any scruples. However, Amos only gave her a brief glance and never looked at her again. Amos was one of a kind and so, he caught her attention. Thinking of this, she twisted her slim waist and walked over towards Amos.
At first, there were still many men who were a bit indignant about it. But when they saw Amos around, they stopped feeling annoyed and had given up.
Anyway, there were plenty of gorgeous women at the event. Hence, giving up this lady was not an issue...
Linda glided over towards Amos, and she introduced herself with a lovely smile.
"Hello, Mister. I'm Linda. It's a pleasure to meet you."
Amos nodded lightly and didn't even glance at her. As the saying went, the grass was always greener on the other side. If Amos was as superficial as the other men, Linda might not have taken such a huge fancy to him!
The more he didn't look at her, the more it ignited her desire!
She remained thick-faced and said, "Mister, may I know your name?"
Amos frowned. He really didn't want to be impolite to a woman in front of Eudora, especially when Linda was an employee of the company. However, Linda was being such a nuisance!
"It's the exact opposite of when I first met Eudora. She was so reserved and aloof!"
Amos muttered inwardly.
In fact, he was reminiscing about the occasion when Eudora wore a red dress to a party at the Granger family's house. He had completely forgotten how unpretentious Eudora had been the first time he met her.
If Harley knew this, he would definitely complain again, "Love is an uncharted territory, it's not worth wandering."
Eudora, who was next to Amos, suddenly felt a little jealous when she saw Linda flirting with Amos. Although the scene was what Eudora hoped for, it was quite upsetting to watch. Eudora frowned and simply looked away.
But just because she looked away, didn't mean that she was unaware of what was going on.
Juju, who was sitting next to Eudora, gave a realtime update, "Mom, that lady is smiling so brightly! Her teeth are pearly white."
"Mom, the lady is asking for Daddy's name. But Daddy is so awesome. He didn't tell her."
"Mom, that lady went to tug on Daddy's clothes again. How could she do that?"
Eudora couldn't help but turn her head subconsciously, and she was met with Juju's crafty eyes.
"Mom, you are still anxious about Daddy, aren't you? But don't you worry, that lady didn't manage to tug on Dad's clothes because he wouldn't let her do so!"
Eudora's brows furrowed in bewilderment. Was this really her own daughter?
While she was thinking, Amos suddenly said in a serious tone, "Miss, please behave yourself and keep a distance from me."
Linda's face suddenly turned a little gloomy. When she turned her head, she saw Eudora and Juju staring at her. As a result, Linda couldn't hold back her emotions.
She was initially the most sought-after lady at the event, but now she felt like a clown. Moreover, there was a poorly- dressed woman staring at Linda! All the anger in Linda's heart was vented towards Eudora and Juju.
"What are you two looking at? Haven't you seen a beautiful woman before?!"
When Juju heard this, she sized the woman up with a serious glance.
"Auntie, you are indeed very pretty, but my Mom is more beautiful than you."
Linda sneered and said, "Did you just compare me with an unkempt housewife? Little brat, you really do have a bad judgement."
Juju didn't like Linda, as Linda was contemptuous with her words.
Juju frowned and pulled Eudora up as she faced Linda confidently.
"I'm not lying. You really aren't as good-looking as my Mom. If you don't believe what I just said, you can see for yourself. If you agree, I hope you can apologize to my Mom!"
Linda was startled as she caught sight of the clear, bright eyes of the woman in front of her.
