My Second Husband novel Chapter 159

"No, you can afford to take it," Amos insisted. "You're my woman. I can give you anything I want."

Eudora still shook her head. "You may have the right to give it to me, but I can still choose whether to accept it or not."

Amos pursed his lips. He was completely defeated by this little woman. He had prepared this gift for her so ecstatically, but she refused to accept it.

"Okay. It's fine if you don't want it. What do you want then? I'll prepare it for you."

Eudora felt a tug in her heart. "If I said that I want you, is that possible?"

Amos' eyes darkened. "I am yours."

"No, I want every part of you, for you to only belong to me. I want to marry you, I want to be your wife..."

Amos frowned. "Eudora, did you hear something?"

Eudora's heart sank, but then she shook her head. "No, what's the matter?"

Amos stretched his hand out and pulled her into his arms. "No matter what you hear in the future, I will always belong to you alone. In the future, when we have children, the three of us will always be together. I will be a good father..."

Eudora smiled bitterly in her heart. Could he even do that?

Was he expecting her and her child to live in disgrace forever? For them to live under the shadow of others forever?

No, if that was the case, then she would rather give birth to the child on her own.

Seeing that she did not speak, Amos felt that something was wrong.

He took her into his arms and asked, "What's wrong?"

She responded to him with a deep, passionate kiss. The man's eyes darkened and all the doubts he had in his heart disappeared that instant. He turned over and pressed her down, desperate for her.

It was a sleepless night.

When Amos woke up the next day, Eudora was still asleep. She still looked extremely exhausted.

He regretted having been too aggressive last night, but how could he cope when she was so enthusiastic?

He lowered his head and planted a kiss on her forehead before getting up to change his clothes.

When he opened the cabinet, he saw a box wrapped up and placed next to the wardrobe. He was stunned. Eudora had brought it from the Meyer Family. Why did she suddenly take it out again?

Without thinking too much, he put on his clothes and went to work.

When he went downstairs, he told Auntie Valerie, "Don't wake her up."

Auntie Valerie nodded with a motherly smile on her face. Eudora opened her eyes after she heard Amos leave the house. She had already woken up and had been waiting for Amos to leave.

After getting up and putting on a simple outfit, Eudora opened the wardrobe and took out the box. It was unusual for Amos to open the wardrobe. When he did, she broke out in cold sweats, afraid that Amos would notice that something was amiss.

Fortunately, he didn't suspect anything.

It was not until Amos' car had left the house that Eudora slowly went downstairs and ate her breakfast as usual.

Auntie Valerie muttered on the side, "I'm really happy for you now that the relationship between you two is getting better."

Eudora did not say a word, and Auntie Valerie had gotten used to her silence. She continued talking to herself, "In fact, relationships aren't that complicated to begin with. They would only last if the parties involved are willing to accept and compromise each other's flaws."

"Accept and compromise each other's flaws." Eudora thought to herself.

She smiled in self-mockery. She once thought that she could give up her so-called freedom for this child, but she only realized it later that it was all her own wishful thinking.

She would have been fine as long as she wasn't the mistress. However, it seemed like her worst nightmare was going to come true now.
