My Sweet Second Marriage (Eudora and Amos)

Chapter 219

Amos took a step back, smiling without warning. Then, he realized why Eudora's necklace looked so

familiar.

He recalled that he had seen it in the basement previously. He saw the necklace on the little girl when

she was beaten. However, it happened so briefly that he did not remember it clearly.

Harley thought that Amos' smile was a little scary and he quickly said, "Amos, isn't this a good thing?

Eudora saved you back then and you have a reaction whenever she touches you. This means that you

two were meant to be together! In fact, I have asked her about this, she said that she did not mind..."

However, Amos was already ignoring him. He turned away silently and got into his car.

In a blink of an eye, the car disappeared in front of Harley.

Amos entered the restaurant through the back door as soon as he arrived. Immediately, he saw Eudora

sitting under the lights with Juju.

The warm yellow light shone on her head and it made her look like a ray of sunshine.

She had a smile on her face. Her eyes would turn into the shape of a crescent moon whenever she

smiled and it was very beautiful.

He recalled what he looked like previously and he no longer has the courage to approach her.

On the other hand, Eudora was too excited that she had arrived an hour earlier.

Auntie Valerie felt the obligation to protect Eudora, so she tagged along as well. She insisted on waiting

for Amos to show up before returning home.

There was nothing Eudora could say to change Auntie Valerie's mind so Eudora let her did as she

pleased.

In fact, she only focused on the buffalo wings that she had been craving all this time. Finally, she could

have a feast!

She was too excited!

As soon as Eudora sat down, she immediately signaled the waiter to prepare the dishes. Then, she

checked her watch and realized that it was nearly time.

The waiter was quick with the preparations and shortly after, all the dishes were served.

Eudora looked at the time again and realized that it was already past 8 p.m.! Original from NôvelDrama.Org.

Why wasn't Amos here yet?

She could not help but wonder. Was he going back on his words again? In that case, she should eat

some first, else he was not going to let her touch any of this after he arrived.

However, Auntie Valerie pulled Eudora back in a nick of time and said, "Miss, let's just wait a little

longer." Eudora had no choice but to put down her cutlery sadly and say, "I should give Amos a call!"

Auntie Valerie nodded hurriedly and said, "Well, Miss, you've got to communicate with Mr. Granger

more."

Eudora was speechless. Since when did Auntie Valerie start spewing nonsense?

The phone was quickly connected and Amos' mobile phone ringtone rang right behind Eudora.

Eudora turned her head hurriedly only to see Amos standing not far away and was staring at her all this

time. His eyes were dark. For some reason, Eudora suddenly felt a little sad.

Amos already lowered his head and canceled the call before walking over.

"Why didn't you come over as soon as you arrived? I've waited for you for a long time!"

"I've just arrived!" Amos did not say much. Auntie Valerie was finally relieved and said, "Now that Mr.

Granger is here, I will go back first!"

"Be careful on your way!" Eudora said.

After Auntie Valerie left, Eudora looked at Amos and said, "Let's eat! Try some and let me know how it

tastes like? This is my favorite!"

She was surprised as soon as she took a mouthful. This was not the buffalo wings that she ordered!

In fact, she had ordered super spicy wings but why weren't they spicy at all?

She called the waiter over hurriedly and asked, "Did you get the wrong soup for me?" The waiter

looked at their order and replied, "No, Miss! You ordered non-spicy wings!"

What the h*ll? "But I ordered super..."

Before she could finish her words, she noticed the dark look on Amos' face. She immediately

rephrased herself.

"Oh yes! I ordered the non-spicy! It's alright.it was just a misunderstanding!"

The non-spicy wings were not as tasty as the spicy ones. Meanwhile, Amos did not seem to be happy,

so the three of them went back quickly after finishing their dinner.

On the way back, Eudora saw the fireworks outside and said, "Why don't we go and see the

fireworks?"

She was so bored that everything in the outside world intrigued her.

Amos shook his head and said, "There are too many people. You'll get hurt, so it's better to not go!"

"I want to go!" Eudora insisted and said, "I want to see fireworks!"

"Stop it!" Amos said bleakly. His mind was in a mess.

Eudora noticed his foul mood and quickly reached out to hold his hand but Amos slapped her hands

away almost immediately like an angry cat. Eudora did not expect him to do that so she accidentally fell

back on her seat. She stared blankly at Amos.

She was not hurt but she did not know why Amos was suddenly behaving like this.

Juju was also surprised and she stared at them, wide-eyed.

Amos was also frightened because he thought that he had hurt her. He quickly checked on her and he

was relieved when he noticed that she was just surprised but was unhurt.

It was not that he hated her touch but he suddenly found himself disgusting...

There was a long silence before Eudora finally spoke, "Fine, let's not go then!"

Amos did not reply and simply drove home.

Their moods were not affected by such a trivial matter. When they reached home, Eudora brought Juju

for a bath then she took out a book and sat on the bed. "Come on, let Mommy tell you a story."

However, Juju shook her head and had her eyes fixed towards the door.

She had not slept with her Daddy and Mommy for a long time now and she wanted to sleep with them

tonight.

Eudora frowned and said, "Amos doesn't seem to be in a good mood today, so why don't you spend

some time with Mommy tonight?"

Juju refused and she picked up the pen and paper next to her hurriedly to write, "I want Daddy!"

Eudora was helpless.

At that moment, they heard footsteps outside and Juju's eyes immediately lit up. She ran out hurriedly

and grabbed Amos' hand.

Amos was not paying attention and he pushed Juju away out of reflex. Fortunately, Eudora was just

behind Juju and she caught her just in time. Juju was frightened and she started bawling.

It was the second time that day. The first time was in the car and the second time was at home.

Eudora was a little angry and she said, "What have Juju done? Why did you push her away?"

Amos looked a little upset. He had just finished showering and he noticed the scars that he had gotten

when he was a child. He recalled the disgusting woman in the basement after noticing those scars...

He was disgusted with himself. He was especially bothered by the fact that Eudora had known this all

along. Yet, she pretended not to know.

"You..." there were so many questions he wanted to ask Eudora, but his words seemed to be stuck in

his throat.

Eudora sneered.

"I understand now! It seems like we're no longer welcome here. Don't worry, we'll leave now and we will

not cause you any trouble!"

After that, she picked Juju up and made her way downstairs.

Juju did not want to leave and she kept on struggling in Eudora's arms. However, Eudora refused to let

her go. In fact, Eudora was very pissed with herself.

She had promised herself that she would cut all ties with Amos but what did she do in the end? She

even thought that she would give him another chance since he had gotten himself hurt because of her.

At this point, she could not blame anyone but herself.
