My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 706
Not only was Amos worried, his two children, who had been playing on the sofa, were concerned as well.
Hearing that Eudora was injured, Juju was about to run over, so did Sugar Bun. However, he couldn't walk so he was anxious to be hugged. He even attempted to climb down from the sofa so that he could reach Eudora's bed.
In the end, it was Tina who gave him a favor and carried him over.
The two little kids snuggled up beside Eudora. One of them blew at Eudora's arm, "Mommy, I'm blowing the pain away for you. In this way, it won't hurt anymore!"
The other one didn't know how to speak, so he used his chubby little hand to caress the wounds on Eudora's arm, in an attempt to make the pain go away.
The scene was so heartwarming that it almost brought tears into everyone's eyes.
As Christopher was looking at this scene, he felt a sudden trace of envy. He had always thought that it would be troublesome to have a child, but his thoughts began to change after that day of visit in the hospital.
The nurse finally calmed down. She quickly fixed Eudora's drip and left the ward.
Juju and Sugar Bun ceased playing and continued to be around Eudora. Poor Amos was pushed away to a corner. Feeling gloomy, he sat unhappily at the corner.
Eventually, Eudora noticed him and whispered something to Juju.
Juju always had the best way to deal with Amos. She directly approached Amos and kissed him on the cheek.
"Daddy, Sugar Bun and I love you very much!" Juju said.
At that moment, Amos didn't say anything. He merely gave Eudora a faint glance.
President Granger was very jealous! Since the day before when they returned, Eudora only had eyes for Juju and Sugar Bun. She had completely ignored Amos.
Eudora, on the other hand, completely understood what Amos was thinking about but she could only pretend to not know as they were in the hospital where many people were present. With that, President Granger was even more depressed!
Fortunately, Tina was very dynamic. She quickly cheered them up with Juju and Sugar Bun.
Seeing that Tina was having such a great time with Juju and Sugar Bun, Christopher decided to ask Tina a question as they were on their way back home.
"Do you like children very much?"
Tina froze for a moment. She thought that he might be referring to Eudora's children, so she nodded and smiled widely.
"Don't you think that Juju and Sugar Bun are very obedient and lovely? Juju is thoughtful and responsible. Sugar Bun, though he couldn't speak just yet, he is so adorable..."
Christopher then put his arm around her shoulders and said, "If you like children, then let's have a baby too!"
Tina was taken aback, "But didn't you say you don't like children?"
She also knew about the will of Master Gellert. At that time, Christopher was very angry and had complained a couple of times about it to her.
A child was not a tool that could be used. What kind of affection they would have for a child born in that way?
Therefore, she asked that question.
"I changed my mind," Christopher said in a low voice. He gently grasped Tina's slender fingers with his big hand.
"I saw how you played with Juju and Sugar Bun in the ward just now, looking like a fairy in the fairy tales. It made me anticipate the future which you would do the same with our children. So, Tina, are you willing to give birth to a child of ours?"
The man's voice was low and his words were enamouring.
Tina had been fond of him since the beginning. At that moment, her heart started pounding fast.
"Of course, I'd like to." She replied.
Eudora's fever subsided and she felt much better in the afternoon. So, she was able to be discharged from the hospital.
Before she left the hospital, she went to visit Wesley.
In order to save her and Sugar Bun, Wesley's injuries were much more serious than hers. However, it was fortunate that his body was strong and he was in good spirits.
When he saw Eudora walking in, he hurriedly tried to sit up. But Eudora beckoned for him to lie down.
"It's all thanks to you this time. Otherwise, it wouldn't have been so easy for Sugar Bun and I to get out." Wesley shook his head and said, "Madam, it's my job. As long as you're in a good health, I'll feel at ease!" Eudora pursed her lips then said, "Thank you! I'm fine."
"Oh, by the way, this is the soup I had asked to be prepared for you. Have a good rest. I will ask Cindy to prepare again and send it to you tomorrow! Remember to have all the rest you need and you must recover fully before coming in for work again. Otherwise, Juju would not let me off on this one!"
Her wittiness had cheered up Wesley a little.
"Yes, madam!"
After watching Eudora exiting his ward, Wesley reached out his hand to take the bowl of soup. He gently opened the lid, and the delicious aroma of the soup instantly rushed into his nose. Wesley picked up the spoon and took a sip of the soup. Instinctively, his lips curved up a smile.
The car arrived at the gate of Clearwater Bay. Eudora's body was still sore from the man's kicks so she had to get out of the car slowly.
Juju ran very fast and tried to rush in as soon as she pushed open the door. Sugar Bun was yelling for her, hence, she had no choice but to turn back and carry him in.
As Eudora slowly got out of the car, she repeatedly warned her children.
"Be careful! Don't fall!"
Juju's was full of confidence, "No, I won't!"
Essentially, Eudora was overly worried. Juju had taken care of Sugar Bun since he was young, and the number of times she held her younger brother in her arms was probably even more than the number of times Eudora had.
Amos walked over and supported Eudora, sighing resignedly.
"Your body hasn't fully recovered. Slow down..."
Eudora grabbed Amos's arm and suddenly leaned over to give him a peck. She then asked, "Are you still angry?"
Amos was amazed. He thought she didn't know.
The woman smiled slyly. Undoubtedly, she knew.
An idea rang in Amos's mind. He pursed his lips and said, "Very well. Did you do it on purpose?"
Eudora hurriedly begged for mercy, "Of course not! It's just that, as a father, isn't it too childish to compete with your children for affection?"
Amos was speechless.
When Cindy heard their conversation as she passed by them, she immediately lowered her head and observed them silently.
She had to pretend that she didn't hear anything at all! After all, it was the first time someone dared to call President Granger childish.
"What if President Granger gets angry? He definitely won't punish Madam, but what about me?" Cindy mused.
Would he kill her to keep her mouth shut?
Thinking of this, Cindy quickened her pace. The next second, She heard Amos speak in a muffled voice.
"Yeah! I am childish! I want your attention too! So, what?"
Gasp...
Just then, Cindy's hands trembled a little and the things she was carrying dropped onto the ground with a thud. "Oh no! This is the end of me!" Cindy thought to herself. As expected, the sound of footsteps came from behind.
Eudora said hurriedly, "Cindy, are you alright?"
Cindy shook her head forcefully and said, "It's all right. I'll pack up right now and leave."
When Eudora heard this, she decided to bend down to help Cindy in picking up the items on the floor. But she was held down by Amos in an instant, "Don't move!"
Cindy was astounded. She was fearful that President Granger would murder her at that moment. She didn't want to die. She was too young to die just yet!
After a moment, Cindy saw Amos squatting down to help her in picking up the things on the floor.
"Be careful next time."
Cindy was at a loss for words.
"Who am I? Where am I? Will I still be able to see the sun tomorrow?" she wondered.
