Eudora was met with Amos' worried eyes as soon as she woke up the next morning.

She could clearly tell that he had been staring at her belly, as though fearing that something terrible would happen to it.

He averted his gaze hastily and caressed her forehead.

"You're awake. How do you feel? Does your belly hurt?"

He had gotten a little too excited the night before. Even though he had tried his best to restrain himself, he had pressed on her hand accidentally in the end. She cried out in pain, which made his heart drop. Eudora assured him that it was fine, yet he couldn't help but worry.

He checked every inch of her body as soon as she fell asleep just to make sure that she was fine. He even wiped her before lying back on the bed.

However, he didn't dare to sleep after lying back on the bed. For some reason, he felt as though he had committed a crime, and that she would disappear if he happened to close his eyes.

Eudora rubbed her eyes. She felt refreshed and her body was perfectly fine!

"I'm fine!" She then tried to prop herself up from the bed. Amos rushed over to hold her almost

instantly, "Easy, I'll help you."

His words reminded Eudora of the things he had said the night before. She could feel her cheeks warming up, "It's okay. I could still walk by myself."

However, she had gotten up from the bed a tad bit quickly and forgotten that her legs were still sore. She almost fell.

Fortunately, Amos reacted fast and held her in a nick of time.

"How is that fine? Forget it. Stay in bed and rest. I'll get Cindy to bring you breakfast."

Eudora was dumbfounded, "I really am fine. It doesn't make sense for me to stay in bed for the whole day. I had just gotten up a little too quickly just now! Didn't you have a lot to deal with in the company? Hurry up and get to work!"

Amos frowned, "I had already asked Clint to send the documents here. I'm not going to the office today!"

Eudora rubbed her temples, "You don't have to do that! It's not a big deal. It's embarrassing if everyone hears about this! You'd better leave quickly, else I'll get mad!"

Only after Eudora used her trump card did Amos comply.

"I'm heading off to work then. Call me immediately if you need anything,"

"Alright, go!" Eudora got up and kissed him on the cheek once she saw that he was finally leaving, "Come home early." Amos patted the top of her head and promised, "Okay!"

Eudora's legs were still a little sore, so she went to lay on the bed for a while longer after Amos left.

Eudora checked her email after breakfast. It had been two days since she sent the design blueprints, so there should be a reply by now.

Sure enough, she received a reply.

The other party said that they were very satisfied with her design and decided to let her carry on with the project. Eudora finally felt relieved. She moved the cactus on the table and worked for two hours. Amos decided to head home during lunch break.

Eudora's menu was customized in accordance with the requirements of the nutritionist. It included various vitamins daily. It was an unwritten rule by Amos that she had to finish all her food for every meal. Eudora hated eating vegetables the most. She usually had to finish them because Amos demanded her to. However, she could just push them aside if Amos was not home for lunch.

After all, Charlie and Cindy wouldn't dare to report to Amos that his wife was slacking.

Eudora put her cutlery on the table.

At this point, Cindy already knew all of Eudora's tricks. Whenever Amos was not home, Eudora would begin with her tricks as soon as they started to eat.

Unfortunately, Eudora had been practicing those tricks with Amos for the longest time. Therefore, Cindy was definitely no match for her. This was the third time Eudora had gotten away with it. If Amos were to replace out about this, Cindy knew that Amos would get mad at her.

Cindy took a step back subconsciously. She smiled at Charlie and Wesley and said, "I need to take care of something in the kitchen. Could you both please look after Mrs. Granger for me? By the way, please urge Mrs. Granger to finish all the vegetables!"

Charlie's face froze. He would not have thought about it if she hadn't mentioned the vegetables. Now that, Cindy had brought it up, he felt that it was an impossible task.

Mrs. Granger used to be very an understanding person, but she had been utterly spoiled by President Granger ever since she had gotten pregnant.

She became hard to deal with!

Charlie took a glimpse at Wesley, who usually wasn't that perceptive. At this moment, the latter was still watching Eudora eating her meal silently.

Charlie seized the opportunity and said, "Oh, I just recalled that the flowers outside had yet to be watered. I'll go and have a look at it. Stay here with Mrs. Granger, alright?"

"Sure!" Wesley nodded and replied, "I'm fine with that."

Charlie and Cindy then left speedily.

When Eudora turned to look, she noticed Wesley standing alone behind her. She stood up and was about to head upstairs. Wesley blocked her path hurriedly and exclaimed, "Mrs. Granger, you haven't finished your vegetables! You must clear the plates before you leave."

Eudora shook her head and refused, "I'm stuffed!"

"No way!" Wesley said firmly. "Mrs. Granger, the portions for your food are carefully selected and tailored by professionals. I recalled that you would always finish your meal when President Granger is home!" Eudora's eyebrows crinkled. It seemed that she had to use her trump card!

She hugged her stomach and cried out, "I'm too full. My stomach hurts!"

Charlie and Cindy hid in the corner and spied on them. It seemed that Mrs. Granger would be more than glad to use this excuse every single day!

Even an airhead like Wesley wouldn't fall for her tricks.

Wesley sighed and was about to say something. Suddenly, a figure bolted in like a gust of wind and asked, "What happened? Why is your stomach suddenly hurting? Where does it hurt? Why didn't you call the doctor?"

Eudora gaped at the person. Amos?

For a moment, she forgot that she was pretending to have a stomachache.

Amos' face turned pale with fright. He held Eudora in his arms and ordered, "Wesley, what are you waiting for? Call the doctor!"

Only then did Eudora come back to her senses. She was shocked by Amos' frightened expression. "I'm fine. Put me down first," Amos looked at her in concern, "Don't force yourself. I'll carry you upstairs!"

"I really am fine!" Eudora mumbled awkwardly, "I just ate too much!!"

Amos frowned, "Aren't the portions for your meals already fixed? How could you be too full? Don't lie to me. You must tell me if you don't feel well," he reminded. She was scaring him out of his wits!

Eudora was tongue-tied. What should she say? Should she say that she was picky with her food? At this moment, Wesley voiced out, "Actually, Mrs. Granger would always say that she has a stomachache whenever she ref used to eat her vegetables."

Eudora turned to look at Wesley in shock.
