My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 473

On the third day, Doctor Chilton and others increased the dosage for the medicine again. At that point, Eudora started to realize that something was off.

Although the doctor had already explained to her that she just needed more rest to speed up the recovery, it was impossible for Eudora to not notice anything at all. After all, it was her own body. At this moment, Amos reached out and patted the top of her head.

'Are you still sleepy?"

Eudora shook her head and answered, "I've slept well!" However, as soon as she finished speaking, she gave a big yawn.

Thinking about what Doctor Chilton had said earlier, Amos caressed her cheek with his hand and asked, "Remember the delicious beef stew you mentioned the last time? Cindy has already brought it here. Would you like to have some?"

Eudora nodded. She tried to regain her energy and replied, "Okay! I'd love to have some."

As expected, Cindy entered the ward as soon as Amos had finished speaking.

She held a pot of beef stew and said, "Mrs. Granger, do have some stew before you go to sleep!"

"Give it to me," Amos took the stew and poured it into the bowl. Then, he took the spoon and fed it to her.

"How does it taste?"

Eudora took a sip and realized that she could only taste bitterness! It was as though everything had tasted bitter no matter what she ate.

"What's wrong?" Amos asked worriedly.

"Oh, it's nothing!" Eudora shook her head in reply. "It's so delicious that I'm savoring it bit by bit!"

"Since you like it, I'll ask Cindy to bring it over every day!" Amos exclaimed. He then scooped up another spoonful of stew for her.

Eudora couldn't handle the bitterness after a few sips. However, she didn't want Amos to be disappointed, hence she came up with an excuse.

"Could you help me get a towel? I'll drink it myself."

Amos placed the spoon down into the bowl and went to the bathroom.

As soon as Amos left, Eudora quickly poured the bowl of stew into the garden behind the window. Then, she lay back on the bed and took the towel from Amos' hand. 'Tm done with the stew!"

After that, she began to feel sleepy again. Amos' heart wrenched. Her eyes were teary as she had yawned too much.

He felt as though his heart had been stabbed by a knife.

"Why don't you rest for a while more?" Eudora nodded and let Amos tuck her into bed.

His phone rang at this moment. Amos was about to decline the call when Eudora said hurriedly, "I think that you should just answer it! It could be an urgent call for work."

Amos had been staying in the hospital for the past few days to keep her company. Because of that, much of his work was delayed. Even if there were really urgent matters to attend to, he would always ask Clint to send the documents to the hospital. Not only that, he would refuse to answer any phone calls so that her rest would not be disturbed.

"I'm really fine," Eudora's eyes were gleaming brightly, "If you don't go to work, Sugar Bun and I are going to be upset!"

Amos sighed and replied, "Okay, I'll go. I'll be back soon!" After thinking for a brief moment, he said, "Cindy will keep you company."

"Okay!" Eudora said as she let him tuck her in and watched him walk out of the ward.

Eudora felt drowsy and went instantly went to sleep as soon as the door was closed.

However, she didn't fall into a deep sleep. She could hear Cindy's footsteps as she did her errands. She also heard Cindy and Doctor Chilton talking to each other.

"Is Mrs. Granger already asleep?"

"Yes! Mr. Granger said that we could start after he returns in five minutes!"

She also heard another nurse's voice saying, "Everyone in the operating theatre is ready! They're just waiting for the patient to be wheeled in."

Eudora's heart skipped a beat. With an unknown source of strength, she instantly opened her eyes.

"What did you say? Who's going for an operation?"

Everyone didn't expect Eudora to wake up all of sudden. Doctor Chilton didn't know what to say at the spur of the moment. Doctor Leon, who was behind him, tried to ease the situation quickly. "Eudora, you probably just had a dream. Nothing's happening."

"Stop lying, I heard it all!" Eudora frowned and questioned. "Tell me exactly. What's going on? Is Amos aware of this? Did he approve of this?"

This time, even Doctor Leon remained silent.

"Eudora, you can't blame Amos. He had no other choice."

Eudora knew it. Only Amos had the power to approve of this. Her heart sank.

She then remembered the bowl of stew that he had just sent over. She noticed something was off when she drank it. She became very sensitive to the taste of medications since she fell ill frequently when she was young.

The bowl of stew was indeed very tasteless.

However, she thought that it was just one of the side effects of her medication. She did not suspect Amos at all...

"Amos drugged in the stew, didn't he? He wanted to ask them to terminate my pregnancy while I was in a coma!"

Eudora was very agitated. She thought that she had made her stance very clear. Amos had even promised her that he would not broach that topic again.

She had initially thought they had come to an agreement about this matter. Hence, he shouldn't have allowed the doctors to terminate the pregnancy without her permission!

"Where is Amos? I want to talk to him, why is he doing this..."

"Mrs. Granger, please calm down!" Helen voiced out as she stood beside her.

Helen could tell with her own eyes that Amos was already mentally and physically exhausted. She really couldn't bear to see Eudora misunderstanding him.

Although Amos had instructed them repeatedly to keep the truth from Eudora, she just couldn't help it at that moment.

"Mr. Granger came to this decision as it was the best for you. If you don't terminate this pregnancy, both the baby and you might not be saved!"

"Helen!" Doctor Leon shouted and glared at his daughter. "You..."

Eudora was in shock. She stood by her bed, flabbergasted.

"Are you serious? Am I really that ill?"

Helen pressed her lips together and said nothing more. Doctor Leon tried to ease the tense ambience and explained, "Helen is just messing around. You're fine..."

"Doctor Leon! Don't lie to me! I know my body well enough. In fact, I've not only been feeling very sleepy these days but my head kept hurting. Not only that, my stomach even hurt when I woke up this morning."

Doctor Chilton was stunned and he asked, "Are you saying that your stomach is already hurting? Quick! Helen, give her a checkup."

"Hold on!" Eudora covered her stomach and stepped back, "Explain my condition to me right now! I want to know every single detail! I have the right to know my body's condition, don't I?" Doctor Chilton frowned, "But Mr. Granger..."

"What he said doesn't count! This is my life! Now, tell me! Just tell me!"

"Miss George, please. Don't make things difficult for us..."

However, Eudora trembled and fell to the ground before he could even finish his words. He didn't know if it was because she was too emotional or because her body had given in. Fortunately, Cindy managed to quickly catch her from behind before she hit the ground.

Doctor Chilton immediately stepped forward to check on her. In the next moment, his expression turned solemn

"The illness has progressed too rapidly! Quick, arrange for a full-body examination immediately!"

Helen couldn't breathe for a moment. Then she said, "I'll inform Mr. Granger immediately!"

"No!" Eudora opened her eyes and shook her head in

Helen's direction.

"I don't want anyone to know about this before my examination results are released!"

"But..."

Doctor Leon, who was standing beside her, grabbed Helen and said, "We'll listen to Eudora!"

Doctor Leon actually had something else on mind. Amos loved Eudora too much. If he knew that something had happened to her, he would definitely not easily let them go. It could even end up as a bloodbath. Perhaps it would be better to not mention anything about it for the time being. He would decide on the next course of action after the results had been released.
