My Second Husband novel Chapter 169

Although Eudora had been hoping that he would not appear in front of her, Amos somehow found himself at the construction site after he left the company at noon.

Even though she did not allow him to get close to her, he still looked forward to seeing her.

As soon as he arrived at the door, he saw a familiar figure standing by the side of the road.

Juju was dressed adorably, catching the attention of the people around. She looked exactly how Eudora would dress a child up.

The next second, he saw Juju taking a step forward, and a huge car was speeding towards her.

Amos felt a chill down his spine. Almost in an instant, he threw himself over and held Juju in his arms.

Then, he heard a cracking sound. It was the sound of his arm hitting on the pavement.

Amos frowned but he ignored his arm. Instead, he was more concerned about Juju who was in his arms. He asked in a deep voice, "Are you alright?"

Juju blinked her eyes and smiled.

"Uncle, is it you?"

Amos breathed a sigh of relief. "What are you doing here? Where's your mother?"

"Mommy is inside. I came out to buy something for her."

While they were talking, Amos heard Eudora's anxious voice behind them. "Juju, Juju."

"Mommy!" Juju shouted.

Eudora's heart, which was thumping wildly just a while ago, was finally at ease.

"Juju, why did you come out here alone? You've scared me to death!"

However, Juju pointed at Amos, who was paralyzed on the ground. He had fallen off his wheelchair, and he looked a little disheveled. He didn't look like the dignified and charming man he used to be.

"Mommy, Uncle saved me."

Eudora pursed her lips and stepped forward to lift Amos' wheelchair up from the ground.

She then got up and grabbed his arm. "Let me help you up."

Her soft and tiny hand touched his arm. His nose was filled with her fragrance. Even after so many years, he still couldn't resist her scent.

Amos closed his eyes to stop himself from tearing up. He then nodded his head and sat in the wheelchair.

The heart- throbbing feeling disappeared the moment her hand left his arm. She then spoke coldly, "Thank you for saving Juju. I'll call Clint. He'll be here soon."

After that, she turned around and wanted to leave with Juju.

Juju struggled and refused to leave. "Mommy, we should thank Uncle. Why don't we invite Uncle over to our house?"

Eudora frowned and said, "No."

Amos was her tribulation. She had made great efforts to escape from him. Why did she come back? She had never thought of coming back!

Juju said shamelessly, "Mommy, didn't you say that we should repay other people's kindness? Why aren't you repaying Uncle's kindness then?"

Eudora's expression changed. "He's different."

"What's the difference?" Children were always filled with curiosity. Eudora felt that she had almost fallen to Juju's trap, so she quickly changed the topic.

"Are you disobeying me now? I'm going to be sad if you continue behaving like this."

Juju was a sensible child. She finally quieted down when she heard Eudora's words.

But after walking a few steps, she stopped Eudora and said, "Mommy, Uncle is bleeding!"

Eudora was startled. She lowered her head subconsciously and held Juju's hand, only to find that her sleeves were stained with bright red blood. She quickly checked Juju's body and realized that it was not Juju's blood.
