My Second Husband novel Chapter 1126

Eddison was stunned for a moment. Under the warm yellow light, her small hand seemed particularly thin.

Her hands did not look like an ordinary noble lady's fingers whose nails were usually covered in shiny rhinestones and elaborate nail art. She did not have a fancy manicure and only had just a light layer of transparent nail polish.

Her pink nails were quite adorable.

He guessed that she had scratched something when she was struggling just then. Her nails were chipped in several places, ruining her beautiful hands.

Eddison frowned and stayed still.

"I won't leave! I'll wait for your driver to pick you up!"

"Thank you!" she said as she trembled, still trying to look and act decently.

Eddison curled his lips and took half a step forward. Rachel, who was behind him, also followed him in reflex.

Eddison found that it was a little amusing.

Therefore, he muttered in a low voice, "You're so timid. If so, why did you complain about me?"

His tone was quite strange, as if he was doubtful, but it also sounded like he was teasing her. All in all, it did not sound threatening.

Rachel heard him, and her fingers paused. She suddenly understood that Eddison had thought that she had complained about the previous incident.

So, she hurriedly explained, "I did not complain about you! After I left that day, I took a taxi home. I did not expect that the taxi driver was a bad person...Believe me, I really didn't complain about you!"

She had always spoken calmly, and rarely spoke in such a hurry.

After Eddison listened for a while, he was relieved.

"Okay, got it!"

Then, a car stopped in front of them. The Gellert family's driver had arrived.

Eddison pulled Rachel's hand away and said, "Your driver is here to pick you up!"

Rachel felt disappointment at the sudden loss of his touch. However, she still waved at Eddison with a smile and said, "Thank you!"

Eddison shook his head, turned around, and strode away.

It was not until he heard the sound of the car door being closed behind him that he turned around and looked at the lights of the car, disappearing into the night.

At the Granger family.

Eudora looked anxiously at Amos, while he held a cup of water in his hand as he gently caressed Eudora's back.

"Don't worry, he's fine. He's just holding a grudge so he found a job outside!"

"Really?" Eudora's heart, which had been in her throat, finally calmed down a little.

"Of course it's true! Why would I lie to you? Hurry up and take your medicine. Then, I'll tell you what I know!"

Not even sparing the medicine a glance, Eudora continued to ask questions.

"What kind of job did he find? He has never had a serious job except for some volunteering work he did as a child!"

Amos said helplessly, "He's no longer a child! You have to believe in him! Eddison will not let himself suffer!"

Eudora sighed as she indeed did not want to worry at all.

However, as his mother, it was an instinct.

No matter how indifferent she acted in front of him, she still worried about him!

Amos finally compromised.

"Okay, you win! Sit down and I'll tell you everything! He's handing out leaflets now and he's working really hard!"

Then, he showed Eudora a photo.

When Eudora saw that Eddison was safe, she finally felt relieved.

"I didn't expect Sugar Bun to be able to make a living for himself!"

Her words were filled with joy.

When Amos saw how satisfied she was, he could not help but tease her, "You're happy just with that? You're so easily satisfied! He's only handing out leaflets!"

"What's wrong with handing out leaflets? As long as he's making money for himself, any job will do!"

"Alright! My dear wife, will you take your medicine now?"
