My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 544

Back in the car, Eudora finally burst into tears, unable to hold it in any longer.

She could picture just how sad Juju was when she asked those questions.

Juju was her daughter. How could she not feel sorry for the baby she had given birth to?

Eudora took out her phone and looked for the familiar number.

It was the phone number of the Granger residence. She had deleted it ruthlessly when she left at that time. However, she couldn't help but added it back into her contacts again soon after. At this moment, her phone trembled in her hands and she couldn't seem to calm herself down.

After a moment of hesitation, she finally dialed the number.

Cindy's voice came from the other end.

"Hello, who are you looking for?"

Eudora opened her mouth, but the words seemed to be stuck in her throat. Cindy frowned and asked again, "Hello?"

Eudora scrambled to hang up the phone, but Juju's soft voice came from the other end at that moment, "Aunty Cindy, who is it?"

Cindy said, "I don't know. Someone called but they didn't say a word."

Eudora tried to hang up the phone again, but she paused at the last moment. She couldn't seem to do it.

At this moment, there was a sudden crisp sound at the other end of the line. Then, Juju's voice could be heard.

"Mommy, is that you? Did you miss me? Mommy? I knew that you won't abandon me!"

Eudora's fingers paused, and she hurriedly let go of her phone.

The phone fell into the car with a snap, and Juju's voice could be heard.

"Mommy, I've been very obedient. After you left, I ate well every day and took good care of my brother. Mommy, when are you coming back?"

Eudora couldn't hold it in any longer and she bent down to hang up the phone hurriedly.

She bit her fist hard and burst into tears.

Juju was turning six, but Eudora had never left her side for more than half a month. In the past, she had always said that children should grow up in a family full of love, but in the end, she was the one who abandoned Juju.

Helen went to the train station after parting ways with Eudora. Just as she was about to board the train, there was a sudden call from Doctor Leon.

"Where are you?"

Helen was afraid that she would be discovered by her father, so she lied.

"I went out to study! I'm sorry that I didn't inform you before I left."

Doctor Leon was stunned. "Are you at Greene City?"

"No, I'm at Cloud City..."

Doctor Leon finally breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good to hear. I hope that you still remember what I said to you last time. You'd better not go after Amos just because he is in Greene City right now. No matter how he is doing now, it has nothing to do with you. Do you hear me?"

Helen was a little upset, but she still nodded in agreement. "I understand."

She felt a sudden urge to rebel after hanging up the phone. She didn't want to go home anymore. It was just like when her father told her when she was a child that she couldn't do obstetrics and gynecology. At that time, she exclaimed confidently that she would be able to do it no matter what.

It was the same now.

She simply turned around and booked a room in a hotel near the station. She didn't even think about what she was supposed to do and how was she going to do it. However, she didn't want to leave when she knew that Amos was in Greene City.

Unexpectedly, when Helen reached the second floor, she found that Amos was in this hotel as well. Moreover, he was staying in the room next to hers.

For the very first time ever, the word 'fate' flashed across her mind. This must be destiny.

It seemed that they were destined to meet no matter where they were. Helen suddenly believed that she might have the power to change Amos' mind.

At the same time, in Amos' suite.

He didn't look well, and Jayden advised him worriedly. "President Granger, would you like to take a rest first? You have been busy with work ever since you stepped into Greene City two days ago. You're overworking yourself. Your body will collapse eventually if you continue doing this."

Amos ignored him.

"Have you gotten the thing that I told you to get?"

Jayden nodded hurriedly and replied, "Yes!" He then took out an invitation card and handed it to Amos.

It was an invitation to the Holt family's welcome banquet for Eudora. Tyler was eager to introduce Eudora to the upper class and he had planned to throw a magnificent event for it.

Jayden was annoyed, "Actually, Mr. Holt didn't invite us. I don't think that it's a good idea to join the event."

Amos shook his head. "No, I must go."

It was going to be a big day for Eudora. How could he not be there?

Amos still remembered how much she yearned to receive warmth from her family in the past. However, Gordon used to resent Eudora back then, so she could only watch as Kesha became the clear favorite in the family.

Now, she finally had a father who would dote on her. Amos felt the need to be there to witness just how happy she was.

"You may leave now. And there's no need to accompany me to the banquet tomorrow. I can go by myself."

"But, Mr. Granger..." Jayden still had something else to say but Amos was already ignoring him. He had no choice but to leave with his head lowered. He knew his boss well and that no one could change his mind.

The door of the room next to Amos' opened once Jayden left. Helen walked happily to Amos' room, thinking whether she should go over and say hello.

In fact, she had been wondering if Amos remembered the moment she had with him at that time in the hospital and if he would gradually have a better impression of her because of that.

If he remembered her, he probably wouldn't hate her as much as he used to!

At the thought of that, she could not help but raise her head again. Finally, she mustered the courage to knock on the door.

The person in the room ignored her knocking. Helen plucked up the courage to knock on the door again. This time, Amos' charming and magnetic voice came from inside.

"Who is it?"

Helen's heart skipped a beat of joy. "Mr. Granger, it's me. I'm..." She stopped in her tracks. Amos probably could recognize her voice, yes?

The next second, she heard a cold voice coming from inside.

"I don't need room service!"

Helen was at a loss for words.

Her heart that had been filled with delight felt as though it had been splashed with a cold bucket of water. How could Amos think that she was the housekeeper? They had known each other for quite a while. Moreover, they had quite a few opportunities to speak to each other due to Eudora's physical condition.

She used to update Amos about the changes in Eudora's condition back then. How could he not recognize her voice then?

Thinking of this, Helen tried to knock on the door again. She could hear the lights being switched off from inside the room, and the glimmer of light from the door gap immediately disappeared.

Helen finally lost the courage to knock on the door again. She turned around in disappointment and went back to her room.

She seemed to remember something after taking a few steps. She went back to Amos' door, took the sign on the door, and wrote down her phone number on it, along with a few short sentences.

"Mr. Granger, I happened to be on a business trip to Greene City. It's such a coincidence that you're here too! My father mentioned before that you should take good care of your health, so feel free to contact me if you feel unwell. I'll be staying here for the time being..."

She ended the short note with her room number.

Helen then went back to her room with satisfaction.

Amos would be able to replace the note she had left for him soon enough.
