My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 573

The news about the engagement between Eudora and Fabian made the headlines of major newspapers the next morning.

The headlines were all in large and bold font, and there was no way to ignore them.

In the beginning, Eudora thought that it was Tyler who planned this, so she went to confront him furiously. Who would've thought that Tyler would be happy when he heard about it? "Malcom is truly very well-versed in the ways of the world. It's naturally better for the groom's family to announce this. It makes it seem more important!"

Eudora's tone froze, "It really wasn't you?"

"Obviously!" Tyler's face was full of pride. "I am your father, and you're my daughter. Why would I do such a thing? Wouldn't that mean that I have to bow my head to Malcom? Eudora didn't believe Tyler's justification. However, when he said that he didn't want to be any inferior to Malcom, she couldn't help but be convinced.

She could see clearly that he and Malcom refused to show weakness to each other in the milkshake shop that day.

So, was it Fabian who had done that?

Eudora thought that it was a little strange. She did not expect that Fabian would do such a thing.

Meanwhile, at Nolan's residence,

Fabian's face had healed significantly after staying in Magnolia Residence for the past two days. He came home as soon as he received Malcom's phone call in the morning.

Malcom came rushing out as soon as he entered the door. "Were you the one who released the engagement statement about you and Eudora?"

Fabian nodded, "Yes! Didn't you say you that like her? Is there a problem?"

Malcom furrowed his eyebrows and said, "I like that girl very much, but that sly old fox must be very pleased this time."

Fabian was speechless. "Father, we're men. We should behave like gentlemen!"

Malcom snorted. "Of course I know that. I'm definitely willing to do it for Eudora. I will stop fighting with that old guy temporarily as long as Eudora becomes part of our family. Let's talk about it once everything is settled!"

After that, he patted Fabian's shoulder happily.

"I'll be waiting for your good news!"

Fabian raised his lips, "Of course."

At this moment, his phone rang. Fabian picked it up and took a look. It was Eudora who called. Speaking of the devil, Fabian immediately recalled the spot that she had punched him at.

The wound was better, but he could still feel the power contained in the woman's small fist.

This was her doing.

Fabian took a few steps forward and said to Malcom, "I still have some matters to attend to. I'll be leaving first."

He picked up the phone as he walked out of the hall.

"Yes?"

Eudora's tone was not very good. Even though she had tried hard to calm herself down, she still couldn't keep her composure when she heard Fabian's voice.

"Mr. Nolan, you couldn't possibly be so mean, could you? I just punched you that day. You could just hit me back if you want revenge. I wonder what your intentions are by releasing such a statement to the world like this. Do you think it is appropriate to deal with a woman this way?"

Fabian's face didn't turn red and his heart didn't jump. "Yes, I do."

Eudora was speechless.

She tried her best to suppress her anger. If she could, she would've kicked Fabian where it hurt!

However, Fabian seemed to sense her fury and suddenly laughed happily. "Are you heading over to the company? I'll pick you up at your door."

Eudora became even more furious and cursed him in her heart, "Go to hell!"

Nevertheless, she still had a reputation to keep. She composed herself and chose to be the bigger person instead. "That will not be necessary!" After all, she didn't know what kind of shameless things Fabian would do again, so she figured that she'd better not offend him.

Fabian couldn't seem to hide the joy in his voice. "Didn't you say you wanted me to hit you back? Why? Are you going back on your words?"

"You have already announced it to the world. If I let you hit me back, will it undo what you've done?"

Fabian raised his eyebrows. "Why not?"

Eudora estimated the authenticity of this matter, but in the end, she wanted to draw a clear line with Fabian. Unwilling to give up such a good opportunity, she agreed to his suggestion. "Alright, come over then!"

She had planned to head out after talking to Fabian. However, she was still very angry and she felt an urge to hit him at the thought of his mocking voice.

In the end, she deliberately dilly- dallied at home for a long time. An hour later, she dawdled out.

She saw Fabian's car parked at the entrance as soon as she headed out. Eudora turned to look at her phone, which was completely silent, and then moved to the side to hide. She'd like to see how patient he was. She wanted to make him anxious to death!

All of a sudden, Eudora could feel a pair of big hands grabbing her from behind. Before she could react, she was already pulled into the shadow of the corner.

"You ungrateful little thing! It seems that you have forgotten what I said to you yesterday!"

Eudora breathed a sigh of relief when she realized it was Amos. However, she turned her head away guiltily the moment she looked into Amos's eyes.

"You..."

She was almost going to ask Amos to listen to her explanation.

Fortunately, she came to her senses quickly. The words that she was about to say stuck at her lips, but she swallowed them back.

"What did you say?"

"Are you playing dumb?" It seemed that a fire was burning in Amos' chest. He didn't expect Eudora to lie to him like this and pretended to be ignorant. Eudora didn't say a word. Amos then grabbed her chin and forced her to look into his eyes.

"Look at me. I want you to tell me yourself, do you really like Fabian?"

He understood that she might have her own difficulties. He could tolerate other men pursuing her too. He could even accept that she wanted to break up with him.

He was still calm, even after seeing the statement that was released by the Nolan family in the morning. Harley and others were afraid that he could not accept it, so they called him one after another to comfort him.

He didn't care what others said, but her attitude towards it was the most important.

Therefore, he had been standing guard since early that morning. He saw with his own eyes that Fabian had driven his car over and stopped at the gate. He then saw Eudora coming out of the house. Fabian waited in the car patiently, while she looked around slyly.

Her expression at that time was so familiar. She was like a cunning little fox. In the past, that kind of look had always been for his eyes only. How could she show it to other men just like that?

How could she?

Amos' eyes turned even icier.

"Eudora, don't you dare think that I couldn't bear to part with you. Since I could fall in love with you, I could also fall out of it! Just you wait till I stop liking you, and when that happens, I won't care about you at all."

Eudora stared into Amos' eyes. His words were filled with grief. Deep down in her heart, she felt that she was a scum who did not know what was good for her. She was like a man who had abandoned his wife and children who loved her deeply, and got together with a mistress almost instantly after...

Even though she had her own reasons, her actions were unforgivable.

All of a sudden, her cell phone rang. It was Fabian. She hurried to answer it, but Amos grabbed her arms and pressed them above her head.

The next second, he lowered his head and kissed her on the lips.
