When Charlie took Gordon to wash up, only then did Eudora explain Gordon's condition to Tina and the others.

Christopher could only pat her on the shoulder. Tina also smiled and encouraged her.

Tina also smiled and encouraged her, "Eudora, it'll be okay! I'll support you along the way!"

Eudora pursed her lips, "Okay!"

Despite this, when Eudora laid on the bed at night, she still could not sleep.

She was used to bringing up children, but to take care of such a grown up child now, she was worried that she would fail.

If Amos was still alive, he would probably be able to come up with many ideas.

At the thought of him, Eudora's heart ached again.

Frantically suppressing those emotions, Eudora forced herself to close her eyes. Just as she was half conscious, she blinked, and the black shadow flashed in front of her eyes. The next day, Eudora was woken up by the commotion outside.

When she got changed and went out, she saw Juju playing ball with Gordon.

Sugar Bun trailed behind them. He was wobbling as he walked, but he was still happy.

Tina came over with a smile, "No matter what, family ties are still hard to erase. Look at Juju. Although they aren't related by blood, the bond between them won't ever change." Eudora nodded, "That's right!"

Just as she was deep in her thoughts, Gordon suddenly stopped and walked towards Eudora.

"Miss, you're here too? Come on, let's play ball together! My two friends here are also good at playing ball!"

Eudora was confused at his words.

"What did you say? Friends?"

Juju immediately raised her chin up proudly, "Yes, we are Grandpa's friends. Now, Mom is one too!"

Eudora waved her hand, "I don't know how to play ball."

"Grandpa knows! Mom, you can ask Grandpa to teach you!"

"That's right, let me teach you!" Gordon

suggested with a smile.

Eudora frowned, "Do you really know how to play ball? I remember that you didn't know how!"

Gordon suddenly grew unhappy, "Who said that I don't know how to? My daughter, Eudora had a parent-child football competition back then. I put aside all my work to join it with her! In the end, my daughter and I were the champions!"

Gordon's face was filled with pride, which brought Eudora's thoughts back to the game from that year.

Back then, she had still been in primary school. After coming back from school, she had mentioned that the school was going to participate in a football match. Gordon had been talking on the phone, and before she could finish her words, he interrupted her to answer.

"I don't know how to play ball, so why not I'll ask one of the younger ones in the company to go with you."

She was dissatisfied, "No, the teacher requested for Dad to go."

"Daddy really doesn't know how to play though. It's no use even if I go." After saying a few words, he quickly looked at his watch.

"Daddy doesn't have time. I have to go to the meeting. Otherwise, I won't finish my work!"

As a result, he really had not gone to the game. In the end, it had been one of the young men in George's company who had gone. He was indeed excellent at football, and they came in first place. However, when it was time for the award ceremony, the teacher said that because it wasn't her father who had played, she couldn't receive the parent-child award. Instead, it had been given to the second place.

On the way home, she had cried.

Later, when Gordon had found out about it, he claimed that he had already learnt to play ball. He was excellent at it, and even said that he wanted to play football with her.

However, she had not wanted to be reminded of sorrowful memories. She had never played football again thereafter.

Hence, she had always thought that Gordon had just been lying to her.

However, seeing that his movements were natural and fluid, could it be that he was telling the truth after all?

The him right now had weaved a beautiful fairy tale in his own mind. In his own world, everything was perfect. Eudora could not help but ask, "How's your daughter now?"

Gordon was stunned, "Which daughter are you talking about? Both of my daughters are doing very well!" Eudora opened her mouth and said, "I'm talking about Kesha!"

"She's doing great! Kesha has always been such an obedient child since young, and she's still obedient even after growing up! After she finished university, she has worked a whitecollar job in the company and has always been stable since then. Two years ago, her mother found her a son of a friend from a good background. The both of them fell in love at first sight, and are already discussing marriage!" Eudora's heart clenched, "What about your other daughter?"

Gordon became even happier, "Of course she's doing great too! Eudora is now incredibly happy with my son-in-law, and even gave birth to two kids. Their family's company is also doing excellent, and is already one of the most renowned companies in the world."

In his dreams, she had actually lived such a happy life.

Eudora's nose twitched, "What about you then?" "Of course I'm extremely happy too! Both of my daughters are doing well, and their relationship is very close too. They always discuss things with each other! It was Felicia's birthday a few days ago, and the two sisters even discussed making a birthday cake. I heard that they had made it together! Have you ever seen such a close pair of sisters?"

Eudora sniffled, "No."

"That's right! I knew that a relationship like theirs was hard to replace outside. So, what's there for me not to be happy about? I was thinking, once the two silly girls finally replace me, I'm going to bring Felicia on a vacation. Felicia has followed me for most of her life, and I haven't properly spent time with her. It's time for me to make it up to her!"

Eudora nodded, "Yes! That's good!"

"What are you so happy about? It's not even your family. You keep asking me questions, but what about yourself? I see that your two children are quite well-behaved! I like them very much. They're just a little short of my Eudora's two kids."

"You don't know how cute Eudora's family is. It was my first time seeing two lovely babies as a grandfather, I was so happy that I wanted to just keep them by my side and not return them. I can't though! They have their own lives, and eventually they have to leave us old people!"

It was probably the first time that Eudora had heard Gordon's true feelings.

In the past, for so many times, when she had visited and left the George family with the kids, he had actually been reluctant for them to leave.

He just did not want to express himself.

When she fell silent, Gordon continued asking, "What's wrong? Why aren't you talking? Are you embarrassed that you're not living a life as good as my daughter's? It's okay, I won't laugh at you. Besides, very few people can be as blessed as my daughter."

His face was filled with pride, as if he were a proud peacock.

In the end, Eudora couldn't bear to wake him up from his dreams, so she only nodded.

"Indeed, I'm not as blessed as your daughter. You're so fortunate."

"I think so too. Alright, that's enough. Hurry up and play ball, and I'll pass on my daughter's good luck to you."

Eudora clapped her hands, and blinked away the tears from her eyes.

"Okay! Don't you dare try to hide anything then! You must give me all the good luck, so that I can keep you company, and be happy forever and ever!"
