My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 443

The staff in the dessert shop immediately became enthusiastic when she saw a handsome man walking in. However, she was frightened by the man's imposing aura, which made him seem unapproachable. She didn't dare to move.

Amos marched to the display counter and asked about the ingredients in each cake.

He eventually chose a gluten-free cake and said, "Wrap it up!"

The staff looked envious, "Sir, are you buying this for your girlfriend?"

Amos was never one to answer such trivial questions. However, since the other party had mentioned his girlfriend, he then simply answered,

"No, she's my wife. She's pregnant and she loves dessert."

The staff seemed to be disappointed. Clint, who was standing at the side, almost burst out in laughter.

President Granger was even willing to reveal his wife's pregnancy just to fight off unwarranted attention. Perhaps he should just stick a note on his face and write these words on it Amos Granger belongs to Eudora solely.

After getting into the car, Amos put the cake on the seat and frowned.

"Are girls so unrestrained nowadays? How could they stare at a man's face for so long?"

Clint didn't know how to answer that question.

"President Granger, it's... it's natural for people to appreciate beauty, isn't it?"

Amos still looked visibly displeased, "Not Eudora," he said. A small smile returned to his face. The woman he liked was truly different from the rest.

Pfft...

Clint looked at Amos' smug expression helplessly.

It seemed that President Granger was very happy to share just how affectionate and lovely his relationship with his wife was.

Amos arrived home just before 6 p.m.

As soon as he entered the door, he noticed that the house had looked completely different than before. He vaguely recalled hearing Charlie and Wesley praising Eudora over the headphones back in the afternoon. He then said to Eudora sincerely, "The house looks really beautiful."

However, at this moment, the cake box in Amos' hand seemed to have attracted all of Eudora's attention.

"Is that for me?"

Ever since she was pregnant, Eudora realized that she had developed a craving for dessert. She was already salivating just by looking at the box.

Amos reached out and pinched her nose, saying, "It's for the little hungry kitten!" Eudora was having none of it, "The one in my belly is the little hungry kitten, not me."

"Oh, I won't give it to you then!"

"Amos!" Eudora glared at him.

Although Wesley and Charlie, who were standing on the side, had promised Eudora that they wouldn't make any more bets, it had become some sort of habit for them. They would start counting inadvertently whenever they saw scenes like this.

"Three, two, one..."

Before they could even finish their countdown, Amos had already handed over the cake.

"This is for you."

The two rolled their eyes helplessly.

Eudora smiled and ate the cake with satisfaction. Amos looked at her from the side before finally getting up, "Where's Juju?"

Juju, who had been sitting and minding her own business on the sofa for the longest time, shrugged helplessly.

"Daddy, I'm fine. Just take good care of Mommy!" Eudora was speechless.

She thought that her daughter was a little pitiful, hence she walked over with the cake and handed it to Juju. "Let's eat the cake together, Juju."

Just as Juju was about to open her mouth, Amos reprimanded,

"Stop. Juju, you're growing new teeth, so you can't have dessert. If you're hungry, I'll ask Cindy to cook something else for you."

Juju had only wanted to take a bite of the cake. She shook her head after hearing what Amos had to say, "It's fine then! Mommy, you can have it all for yourself!"

Eudora had no choice but to withdraw the spoon. The next second, she scooped up a spoonful of cake and put it into Juju's mouth when Amos wasn't paying attention.

"Have a bite."

Juju's eyes lit up as she tasted the cake. The duo looked at each other and smiled.

When Amos turned back, they sat still with a straight face, as though nothing had happened.

Amos smirked and pretended not to see the cream crumbs left on their lips.

Eudora had promised to treat their friends to dinner when she got married to Amos back then. However, a lot had happened after that, and she did not have a chance to do so. Eudora happened to be free for the next two days. She was getting a little exasperated being watched by Amos all the time at home. Hence, she proposed to invite her good friends out for dinner. Amos had no objection. With his character, it seemed that he could not wait to let the whole world know of their marriage.

However, the affairs within Valiant East were still not stable. He didn't want to risk inflicting unnecessary trouble onto Eudora, hence he decided to invite a few good friends to dinner privately. Eudora didn't want to set the venue at home. After all, she had been staying at home most of the time, hence she decided to set the venue at Rosaville Hotel.

Thea was the first to arrive. Eudora hadn't seen her for a long time. She was a lot skinnier now. Although she had very heavy makeup on her face, it could be seen that she was not feeling quite well. Eudora looked at her worriedly, asking, "What's going on? Why have you lost so much weight?"

Thea shook her head and answered with a smile, "I'm on a diet! I'm fine."

Eudora did not probe further and ushered her to the private room.

Harley was next to arrive. He too had lost weight and he got himself tanned. He seemed to be in good spirits too, "Amos, Eudora, congratulations!"

Amos was as indifferent as ever, but Eudora rolled her eyes and said, "Head over to the room! We'll start when everyone is here."

Harley shook his head, "No. I want to play with Juju for a while. Juju, do you still remember the Sudoku we played the last time? Let's play it again today..."

Eudora gave Juju a meaningful look, who then shook her head hurriedly, "I'm sorry, Uncle Louis. I still have some matters to attend to. You should head over to the room now!"

Harley looked despondent, "I wouldn't have come if I had known that I would receive such treatment. I thought that I could spend some time with my lovely Juju, but you wouldn't even spare me a minute. Forget it, I'll head over to the room and played my mobile games!"

After that, Harley turned and left.

Eudora then walked over with a gossipy look and whispered to Amos,

"What do you think will happen when they meet?"

Amos was not in the mood to care about anything else. He had been looking at Eudora's shoes worriedly. She was wearing a short evening dress and a pair of slightly-heeled shoes to fit the dress.

He was worried that Eudora would feel uncomfortable in those heels.

"Does your feet hurt? Why don't you take a rest?"

Eudora didn't want to leave, but since Harley and Thea were already in the room, curiosity got the better of her.

She then nodded and walked towards the private room.

Juju covered her face as she looked at Eudora.

"When did Mommy become such a busybody? Will my little brother become a gossiper in the future?"

Amos frowned. "Is that possible?"
