My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos) -
Chapter 756
The car drove all the way to the destination, which was in the suburbs.
When Eudora and Clint arrived, Charlie and Harley were already there.
At the scene, many people were gathered together. Eudora got out of the car and immediately ran over to squeeze through the crowd.
"Where's Amos?"
Harley frowned and said nothing.
Charlie wanted to say something but stopped, on second thought.
The hope that had originally been rising in her heart instantly fell to the depths again. Eudora was a little scared, "What do you mean by this? Didn't you replace Amos's tracker? Where is he?" "Madam, I'm sorry," Charlie said in a hoarse voice.
"I don't want to hear words like that! Where's the tracker? Where is it?"
Seeing that Charlie did not move, Eudora walked forward on her own. After a few steps, she realized that there was a lake in front of her.
Her back stiffened.
Her voice trembled, "Is the tracker in the river?"
However, it was unnecessary to ask that at this moment. When she turned around, she could see that there were a few people salvaging through the water!
Eudora closed her eyes, and Clint, who was behind her, immediately stepped forward.
He said, "Madam, don't worry. It will be alright."
"Of course it will be!" Eudora took a deep breath. Her back was as straight as a flagpole. The words of comfort fell back into Clint's throat just as he was about to say them. Eudora was much stronger than he had imagined.
The salvaging team had been working hard for half a day, and finally, they found Amos' shoes in the lake. There was a tracker at the back of the shoes. It seemed that the enemy had figured out insider information of the Granger family. That was the only explanation as to why they understood Amos so much. Eudora held Amos' shoes as Harley's comforting words trailed into her ear.
"The shoes have been left behind, which means that he's fine. Otherwise, they would not have left his shoes behind. There's still hope for us to replace him!" Eudora nodded, "I'm tired. I'll go back and rest first. Continuing doing everything else the same as before. Continue searching! Amos will be fine!"
Everyone looked at Eudora in surprise mainly because she looked too calm.
She was so calm that it was scary!
After saying that, Eudora turned around and walked back alone.
Clint immediately gave Charlie a shove and said, "Catch up with her."
Charlie nodded and hurried to keep up with her.
On the way home, Charlie stealthily snuck glances at Eudora from the rearview mirror. However, Eudora's expression was frighteningly calm. On the way home, she even took a phone call.
It was Amber who had called, and Eudora dealt with the business matters calmly.
In that case, they would be more at ease if Eudora was crying hysterically. After all, it would be much better for her to vent her emotions. However, she did not release her emotions at all. She just kept it all in her heart.
She might break down from overly suppressing her emotions!
Charlie suddenly thought of that.
He said again, "Madam, if you're not in a good mood, you..."
"No, I'm not in a bad mood. Drive faster. Sugar Bun and Juju should be awake by now. I'm worried that they're missing me."
Charlie had no choice but to hold his words back and sped up.
After returning home, as expected, Eudora heard Sugar Bun's cries. Cindy and Juju were trying to coax him, but he could not stop crying no matter how hard they tried. Juju was so worried that she was on the verge of tears herself. Only when she saw Eudora return did she rush forward to hug Eudora's leg.
"Mom, where have you been? Sugar Bun has been crying all day. It's all because I didn't take good care of him."
Eudora felt a stab in her heart as she looked at her daughter, who was still so young.
Reaching her hand out to hold her close, Eudora shook her head. "This isn't your fault. You're still young. This is what I, as your mother, should do instead!" After that, she walked over and picked up Sugar Bun.
After smelling the familiar scent, Sugar Bun finally stopped crying.
He called out hoarsely, "Mom.."
Eudora replied with a hum, "I'm sorry. I went out too suddenly this morning and didn't even say goodbye to you all, so you were all afraid, right?" Sugar Bun stayed silent
After turning his big eyes at Eudora, he suddenly said again, "Dad?"
Eudora's heart ached, and the tears that she had been holding back instantly dampened her eyes.
She sniffed and hurriedly suppressed her emotions.
"Dad is at work. Do you miss Dad?"
Sugar Bun nodded. He had always been a little quiet since he was a child. Except for calling Dad and Mom, he basically did not speak much. However, this day, he took the initiative to nod, indicating that he was looking for Amos.
Sugar Bun was Amos' child after all.
Thinking of this, Eudora's urge to cry worsened. In order to cover it up, she hurriedly hugged the two children and let them lean on her shoulders. When her children could not see her face, she quickly wiped her tears away.
"Dad will be back soon. Can Mom play a game with you two?"
Although Sugar Bun was not interested in that, as long as his mother was with him, he would be happy with anything.
For the whole afternoon, Eudora played with her two children at home and did not allow herself to stop for even a moment.
After the two children finally fell asleep, Eudora went downstairs to get a cloth and began to clean up.
When Cindy saw this, she hurriedly stepped forward and looked at Eudora in horror.
"Madam, I've already cleaned this place in the morning. Which part is not clean enough? I'll clean it again!"
Eudora shook her head, "No, it's just that I haven't cleaned in a long time. Don't worry about me."
"But, Madam..."
Cindy wanted to add something else, but Wesley appeared behind her and reached out to hold her. Wesley shook his head at her and motioned her to not bother about Eudora. Eudora probably did not want to be unoccupied because she would be unable to control her brain from overthinking once she stopped being busy.
"I have something to tell Madam. You can go do your own work!" Wesley said.
Cindy affirmed his orders and left.
Wesley just stood there, looking at Eudora. He watched as she wiped the table and the wardrobe. After that, she cleaned the window and the floor. She kept herself busy until the dead of night.
In the end, she was so exhausted that she did not have any strength left, so she got up and threw herself on the sofa.
She covered her eyes, and a tear fell from the corner of her eye.
She told herself not to think about it. She could not cry because the person who would usually wipe them away was gone.
She thought she was strong enough, but in the end, she could not hold herself back!
Amos, where the hell was he? If he no longer was in this world, how could she have the courage to face the storm in the future?
Wesley, who was behind her, sighed softly. He had been watching Eudora cry and subconsciously wanted to reach out to her. However, when he thought of what Charlie had said, he stopped again.
In the end, he just stood there, constantly looking at Eudora until she grew tired of crying and fell asleep.
After that, he walked towards her, picked the blanket up, and covered it over her.
If only he could always silently guard her like this. That would be enough for him!
