My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)
Chapter 784

Charlie was stunned, "There's someone here?"

"In the corner just now, somebody struck the blade out of his hands!"

It was a very strange feeling, and Eudora couldn't explain the situation in that instant.

Upon hearing this, Charlie immediately ran over to check. "No, that's a dead end. I've already checked and no one's there. Did you see wrongly?"

Eudora shook her head, "Could I have seen wrongly? How did the blade drop out from his hand though?"

"Maybe he didn't hold onto it firmly! After all, we did bash them up pretty hard."

That was probably the case!

Eudora was just thinking that when Charlie continued, "I've enquired just now, and you guessed right. The hotel receptionist told me that Miss Tina really is staying here."

Eudora immediately chased away all the weird thoughts in her head.

"Tina really is here! This stupid girl, just watch me teach her a lesson!"

When Eudora left, Charlie took a look at the wrist of the man who had fallen to the ground. There was an obvious red streak there, as if it had been hit by something, just like that time when he had been in Greene City...

Eudora entered the hotel lobby again. The two kids were standing inside as they stared longingly outside. Especially Juju, who was stretching her neck out to look outside with her tiny hand holding her little brother's.

At the same time, her eyes were teary, waiting for Eudora to return.

When she saw Eudora, her lips twitched, and a smile quickly appeared on her face as she started to comfort her little brother.

"Mom's back. The game is over!"

Sugar Bun was so excited that he stretched his hands out for a hug. Eudora quickly hugged him for a bit, then let go.

She turned around and held Juju tightly, saying, "Juju did very well, Mom wants to reward Juju with a big hug and some kisses."

Carrying the two children upstairs, Eudora reached out to press the doorbell of Tina's room.

The person staying inside did not open the door at all. Eudora, in a panic, took out the spare room key and rushed into the room. Tina was holding a knife in her hand, calmly standing by the window.

Eudora felt a tremor in her heart, and quickly called out to her.

"Stop! Tina, are you crazy?"

Tina was also stunned, her face a little pale.

"Eudora, how did you manage to replace me?"

Eudora stared at the knife in her hands and said, "If there's an issue, let's discuss it properly. Don't do anything stupid! Put down the knife!

Juju also shouted nervously, "Auntie Tina, don't do it!"

Tina took a deep breath, "Eudora, can't I even learn how to cook?"

Huh?

The corners of Eudora's mouth twitched, "You're learning how to cook?"

"Yes!" Tina pointed at the potatoes in her hand that looked as though they had been chewed by a dog. "I'm learning how to peel potatoes! Did you think I would commit suicide? I won't! It wasn't easy for me to live until today, so why would I kill myself?" "Oh!" Eudora was a little embarrassed.

"Then, come back with me! Christopher has been looking for you!"

"I'm not going back!" Tina shook her head. "I already told you guys to not look for me! I won't go back ever again!"

"You're just avoiding the problem! Is there any use in doing this? Aside from the fact that I have no interest in Christopher, did you think that once you've left, he can just get together with someone else without a hitch? That's impossible! He's your own husband, don't you even understand him?"

"It's precisely because I know him too well that I know that he'll never give up on me. I know that he would give up everything for me! Which is all the more why I can't be selfish! I can't just waste his entire life just for my own selfish gains."

"What do you mean that you're wasting his time? How many years can a person live? It's only a mere few decades, why overthink it? So what if you can't have children? Didn't you two get together because of your own feelings towards each other? Children are just the fruit of your relationship; even if there are no children, your relationship will still remain!"

"Eudora, stop trying to convince me already!" Tina had already made up her mind!

"He may not be able to realize it now, but he surely will in the future! Just like how he had loved you in the beginning, and didn't he fall for someone else in the end? He can do it again!"

"Like I've said, my relationship with him is entirely different from yours with him! I had only been with him as a friend, of course it was easy to forget things. However, you are his eternal companion, his one and only soulmate!"

"Stop!" Tina covered her ears. "Eudora, you're trying to persuade me, but if it were you, if Amos faced this predicament, you would choose the same path too!"

Eudora was startled. Tina's words had made her think.

"You're right. If it was in the past, maybe I would have made the same choice as you did. However, I wouldn't now! After

experiencing life-and-death ordeals, I've finally come to realize that if you don't appreciate others now, you might not get the chance to do so in the future! Do you really want to become like me, to only know what it means to appreciate someone only after you've lost him?"

Tina's face turned pale, "Don't speak nonsense."

The two were talking when Charlie's voice sounded from outside, saying, "Mr. Gellert, why did you search all the way until here? Your face looks so strange, are you not feeling okay?"

While Eudora was still surprised, Tina had already rushed out!

Looking at her anxious footsteps, Eudora's lips formed a smile.

Who had just mentioned about letting go? Was it really that easy for her to let go?

While she was thinking, a gasp sounded outside the door, "Christopher, how do you feel? You're bleeding?! I'll send you to the hospital immediately!"

"There's no need!" Christopher answered.

He stretched his hand out and gently caressed Tina's cheek, "I was scared to death. I thought that I wouldn't be able to see you again!"

Tina frowned, "Why are you still saying this at a time like this? Quick, come in and have a seat!"

"No!" Christopher shook his head and asked, "Will you come home with me?"

Tina bit down on her lower lip, "I won't go back. I've already called a lawyer, he'll take care of our divorce affairs. You'll have your freedom thereafter!" "I won't agree to it!" Christopher creased his brows and raised his voice. By doing so, he might have strained his wound, so he subconsciously stretched his hand out to cover his abdomen as his body swayed.

Tina looked down at his lower abdomen and asked, "What's wrong?"

Christopher did not reply to her question.

He continued speaking, "I've already told you that I have no interest whatsoever in the Gellert family's business! I don't want anything else, so can't we just leave this place and go somewhere where there's jus the two of us?"

"You will regret your decision!" Tina smiled bitterly. "The head of our orphanage used to be like this. She established the orphanage simply because she didn't have her own children. Her husband had also said the same thing to her initially, saying that it was okay to not have kids and everything would be alright as long as they stuck together. However, in the end, he still abandoned our principal. At 40 years old, he found a lady who was younger than him by 20 years, and they gave birth to a son."

"To reproduce is a human's innate instinct. What you're saying now is sincere, and I believe you. However, minds can change, so instead of waiting for the regret to sink in in the future, I'd prefer to stop our relationship at its most beautiful moment. Do you understand me now?"
