My Second Husband novel Chapter 172

After Eudora hung up the phone, she turned around and saw Juju and Cola staring at each other.

Since Eudora had to work, she was afraid that it would be dangerous for Juju to be home alone, so she had never bought her a pet.

It was her first time seeing Juju this excited. Not only was she not afraid of Cola, it was also obvious that she liked the dog very much.

Eudora lifted the corners of her mouth as she glanced at them. "Are you hungry? I can grill some steak for you."

When she mentioned the word 'steak1, not only did Juju's eyes lit up, but Cola's too.

When Eudora took out the plates, both Juju and Cola were patiently waiting at the kitchen door. They watched as Eudora started cooking in the kitchen.

The odd sight made Eudora stifle a laugh, and she said helplessly, "You two, go to the living room!"

At this moment, the doorbell rang. Eudora thought it was Christopher, so she told Juju to get the door.

After a while, Eudora didn't hear any sound, so she wanted to head outside and have a look. When she turned around the next second, there was another person next to Juju and Cola by the kitchen door.

That person was no stranger. It was Amos.

At the sight of him, Eudora's mind went blank. Unfortunately, this almost caused the steak to scald her hands, so she instinctively let go. The next second, Amos rushed over and pulled her hand under the faucet.

"Rinse it."

When Eudora finally came to her senses, she realized that Amos was holding her while running her hand under the cold water.

Behind them, there was a little kid and a puppy, who were staring at them with wide eyes.

Eudora was awkward.

She quickly let go of Amos' hand and pushed him away.

"I'm fine. It doesn't hurt!"

Amos looked at her fingertips and heaved a sigh of relief. It was true that she was fine. "I'm here to pick Cola up."

Juju's face was full of surprise. "Uncle, are you Cola's owner?"

Amos nodded. "Yeah, do you like Cola?"

Juju wanted to say yes, but when she saw Eudora's expression of disapproval, she shook her head. "No."

Amos frowned. He always felt that she had been too strict with her daughter. After all, the child was still very young. If Juju was his daughter, he was certain that he would spoil her rotten. He would get her whatever she wanted.

Even if Juju asked for the stars in the sky.

While he was thinking, Eudora interrupted his "Since Mr. Granger is here, you can bring Cola home! The vet has bandaged its leg. The wound on its leg will be fine as long as you take good care of it."

Amos nodded in acknowledgment, his heart filled with disappointment.

At the same time, Cola also whimpered and lowered its head.

Juju couldn't bear to see this and reminded her mother, "Mommy, Cola hasn't eaten yet!"

Eudora furrowed her brows, "There's plenty of food in Cola's home!"

"But Cola wants to eat the food that you made!" Juju said.

Cola was also looking at Eudora eagerly as if he could understand what Juju said. When Eudora was about to refuse, Juju started pouting. "Mommy, you are too stingy!"

Eudora was speechless.

She had no choice but to ask Amos. "If you don't mind, could you wait until Cola has eaten?"

She had deliberately asked that question. When Amos saw her attitude this time, he would probably say that he minded and that he would leave with Cola immediately.

However, what came out from his mouth was, "No, I don't mind."

Eudora didn't expect that.

There was no other way, so she had to brace herself. She continued grilling the steak, one for Cola and another one for Juju.

As Juju received her portion of the steak, she glanced at Amos and asked, "Uncle, have you had your dinner?"
