My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 477
Eudora smiled at Doctor Chilton. Doctor Chilton couldn't help but be reminded of his youngest daughter, Dulcie, who had passed away due to congenital leukemia.
At that time, Dulcie was in the same situation as Eudora when she was fighting against the disease.
Although it hurt a lot, she continued to silently bear it in order not to let others worry about her.
She still had a smile on her face even on her final days.
Tears began to well up in Doctor Chilton's eyes. He knew that Eudora was just trying to convince herself. He had no choice but to compromise.
Perhaps she was right. Perhaps he could actually set his mind at ease and research on the new antidote if he didn't have to face Amos every day.
He had failed to save Dulcie back then. Therefore, he swore to do his best to stop the tragedy from happening again.
He turned around and handed a pill to Eudora.
"This is a type of hormonal medicine, which is originally meant for patients to relieve pain. People usually feel much better after eating it. You could only take this once. You can't eat it anymore after you're discharged from the hospital! Do you understand?"
Eudora nodded obediently in reply, "Thank you,
Doctor Chilton."
When she was prepared to put the medicine into her mouth, she seemed to have suddenly thought of something.
"Will it affect the baby?"
Doctor Chilton shook his head and answered, "It's alright with such a small dosage."
Only then did Eudora ate it with relief. After that, she walked back to the ward slowly.
She felt much better after eating the medicine. She didn't look as weak and drowsy as she did over the past few days.
The examination the next morning was carried out smoothly.
This time, even Amos believed that Eudora's condition had really improved.
He finally agreed for her to be discharged from the hospital.
Amos accompanied Eudora back home later that afternoon. Juju was ecstatic when she saw that Eudora was finally back, Although she was always a strong and independent young girl, she stayed in Eudora's embrace and refused to leave.
Eudora let Juju cling to herself for a while, then reminded her to proceed with her errands.
Although she felt sorry for Juju, she knew in her heart that she would have to leave one day. Juju was only a child and she was different from an adult.
Instead of having to experience the tremendous pain of seeing her own mother leave, it was better for her to get used to her absence from now onwards.
Juju pouted. Although she was reluctant to do so, she still walked away obediently.
After returning home, Eudora took the medicine according to Doctor Chilton's instructions to suppress and control the toxins. She then started to draft her designs with the remaining time she had left.
Her design had been approved by her client previously. Hence she had to continue to draw the blueprints for the following designs. She must complete the blueprints before her condition worsened. Although she had no regret from this life, she still desired to leave behind a legacy of her own in this world.
It would be best if her children could see her work come to fruition eventually and relate to her in the future.
Time seemed to pass in the blink of an eye and Eudora had been busy for the entire morning. All of a sudden, she felt a sense of discomfort. She got up hastily and stroked her belly. "Be good, Sugar Bun. Just let me finish my last bit of work."
The baby in her belly stopped moving instantly, as though he could understand what Eudora had just said. She gave a little smile and was about to continue with her work.
The next second, Amos had already picked her up. "Even Sugar Bun knows how to be obedient. Meanwhile, you're not behaving as well as him."
Eudora was a little speechless. She diverted the topic and asked, "Why did you come back so early?"
Ever since Eudora was discharged from the hospital, she had constantly forced Amos to go to work. "If I don't come back soon, were you planning you keep yourself busy in front of the computer for the entire day?"
Eudora was speechless once again.
She had completely forgotten that Amos had set up a camera to monitor her in the study room. He would be able to see her whenever she worked here!
It was obvious that Amos was a little displeased.
Eudora quickly tiptoed to kiss his cheek and apologized, "Sorry!"
Amos looked at her helplessly. This precious woman of his always had the best attitude whenever it comes to admitting her mistakes. However, it seemed that she had never attempted to correct it! Amos responded with a sullen face.
"Forget about your little tricks! Come downstairs with me right now."
Eudora shook her head and pleaded, "Just give me ten more minutes. I'm left with one last piece of my draft! Once I'm done, I promise that I'll have a good rest and won't be busy with the blueprints anymore!" Amos looked at her for a while. Then, he put her down to the ground reluctantly.
After that, he sat down in her chair.
"Just tell me what you want, I'll draw it instead."
That was fine with Eudora. She was very confident in Amos' skills. Therefore, she reiterated her idea while he began to draw it.
Not long after, he finally completed all of the blueprints that Eudora was assigned with.
"Hurry and help me print them all out. I want to take a good look at them."
Amos frowned, "You little liar!"
Only then did Eudora remember that she had promised him that she would have a good rest after she was done with her work.
She noticed that the man's face was getting gloomier. Eudora had to let go of the matter and used her wild card. "Hubby, my legs are sore." Sure enough, the expected took place in the very next second.
The unhappy man was instantly defeated as he walked over worriedly.
"Where? Was it because you've been sitting all day? Let me massage it for you."
After a brief moment, Eudora looked at Amos with endearment. She stroked her belly as he did his best to massage her.
"Did you see it, Sugar Bun? Daddy treats us so well. When you grow up, you must be filial to your father, okay?"
The little baby in her belly moved a little.
Suddenly, Amos' phone rang. He got up and went out to answer the call. "Don't you dare go anywhere or I'll break your legs." Eudora was speechless.
As soon as he left, Eudora got up and stroked her belly gently.
"
"Daddy's words were a little too harsh, but he would never really break my legs. Sugar Bun, you mustn't inherit his bad temper," Eudora said to her baby.
Amos hadn't gone far away as he stood outside the door. He was absolutely speechless at what he had just heard.
The reason he came out to answer the call was that it was from Harley. Amos had previously asked him to investigate the incident regarding Kesha.
Now that he had called, it seemed like there should be some results.
As expected, Harley's serious tone was heard after the call was connected.
"I've got the results. You're right, Kesha was indeed behind this! Although the surveillance camera didn't record her movements on that day, it was certain that she went in that direction. Moreover, I've also discovered that she had purchased the drug prior to that day. Kesha was the only one who knew about Eudora's illness at the back of her palm ever since she was young. It must be her! What do you plan to do now?"
Amos' eyes dimmed as he answered, "Don't alert the enemy! I'll deal with it myself."
Amos sounded a little terrifying. Even Harley felt a layer of cold sweat on his back as he heard his voice.
He couldn't help but mutter in his heart, "Kesha, how dare you provoke Amos of all people? You're digging your own grave, aren't you?"
