My Second Husband novel Chapter 196

Amos could not bear to see her cry. He felt that his heart was about to be ripped in half by the tears of the mother and daughter.

Without thinking about anything else, he hugged both of them tightly without hesitation. "I'm here, so you don't have to be afraid anymore!"

Originally, Eudora was just worried, but because of Amos' embrace, it triggered her to cry even harder. At this time, she suddenly didn't want to care about the past or the fiancee.

She didn't want to think about anything else. She just wanted to have a good cry.

Thinking of this, she cried even harder in the arms of this familiar man. She wept and wept as if she was sobbing away all the years of helplessness, fear, and grievance.

In the end, even Juju had stopped crying, leaving Eudora to cry her heart out sorrowfully.

Amos looked at her, his heart aching, "It'll soon be morning if you keep on crying!"

Only then did Eudora return to her senses. She rubbed her eyes and saw that Juju had fallen asleep again.

Eudora looked a little embarrassed. After crying, she was back to her old self again. She took a step back and withdrew from his embrace. "I'm sorry that I woke you up. You should go back to sleep!" Amos didn't know what to say.

This woman.

"What do you really think of me? Am I a bolster or a tissue? Are you just going to throw me away after you've finished crying?"

Eudora bit her lips "Then, next time when you cry, I'll hold you in my arms as well. How about that?"

After saying that, she felt she had unintendedly made a dumb mistake again. Sure enough, Amos' expression looked even worse.

After a while, Eudora couldn't help but say, "Then..."

"I can't leave!"

Eudora was stunned. Amos motioned for her to look at Juju's hands, which was grasping Amos' fingers tightly, refusing to let go.

"If we untangle her fingers forcefully, it would wake her again. It was not easy for her to fall asleep!"

Eudora was speechless, so she had to say, "Then I'll go sleep on the couch..."

"Am I that contagious that you have to avoid me at all costs? Besides, Juju is here. What would I be able to do to you?"

As he said the last sentence, his gaze inadvertently landed on her thin nightdress. Suddenly, it reminded Eudora of the time when they got together. The intimacy that they used to have...

All of a sudden, every part of her that Amos gazed upon was suddenly set on desire.

Eudora subconsciously covered herself with the quilt and turned off the bedside lamp in haste. It took Amos some rustling before he got on the bed from his wheelchair and lay down next to Juju.

They could almost hear each other's breathing. In this silent night, it was shallow but inexplicably reassuring.

Eudora thought that she would be too nervous to sleep, but after a while, she dozed off peacefully.

When he was sure that Eudora was in deep sleep, Amos relaxed and turned to look at her.

The moonlight shone across her face, covering her whole body with a silver sheen. After watching her sleep for a while, he gently took his finger out of Juju's palm.

Then, he smiled and closed his eyes.

The next day, when Eudora woke up, the other side of the bed was empty.

Thinking of everything that had happened last night, she quickly sat up. She could hear sounds coming from downstairs. It seemed to come from the garden.
