My Second Husband novel Chapter 205

Amos gave her a wry smile and there were traces of bitterness in his eyes.

Eudora's heart ached. She had never seen Amos act like this before.

She blurted out almost subconsciously, "Actually, you still have relatives! You are not alone."

"Hmm?" Amos was taken aback and he looked at her blankly.

It was only then that Eudora realized that she had nearly given away the secret about Juju.

She hurriedly shook her head, "I..."

"You're right, I still have you!" Amos suddenly smiled and thanked her, "Thank you, Eudora!"

Eudora was at a loss for words.

"Actually, I..."

"I still have some work to attend to, so I'll go and get it done." Amos interrupted her.

After that, he left without waiting for Eudora's answer.

It was not until the door was closed that Eudora realized that Amos must have thought that she had forgiven him.

Clint was very efficient at his work. Jason immediately flew back the next day. Clint instantly suggested, "I'll take him to the Granger Mansion now."

"No!" Amos replied hurriedly, "Let Jason settle down and rest first. We'll talk about it tomorrow."

Clint paused for a while and understood. The other relatives were coveting for the wealth of the Granger Family. Amos was worried that they would cause a ruckus as soon as they knew about the Old Master's medical problem.

Therefore, it would be better if they were discreet.

"Alright!" Clint replied.

Amos called Old Master Granger's assistant with his phone after Clint left.

"There will be a company dinner at the office tomorrow, so bring the president along."

Valiant East was a renowned company in the business world and the spotlight would definitely be on their company dinner's banquet.

Meanwhile, Anya Astor gave Eudora a call and her tone was filled with excitement. She said, "Miss Eudora, you have to come too! I heard that Wendy is coming as well, so you should dress up gorgeously and make her jealous of you!"

Eudora frowned and asked, "Why do you want me to compete with her?"

It was only then that Anya realized that she had crossed the line. Both Clint and Anya were trying their best to bring Eudora and Amos together, therefore, they naturally disliked Wendy. However, Eudora knew nothing about it!

"Uh, I just don't like her!" Anya came up with an Eudora paused as she suddenly recalled the smell of the perfume she caught from the clothes in the hotel that day. If that person really was Wendy...

"Fine!" Eudora nodded and agreed, "I'll be there!"

After hanging up the phone, Eudora went to look for an outfit. She did not realize that there were various branded clothes suitable for every season prepared in the wardrobe until she started looking through them.

Auntie Valerie heard the commotion from outside and came into the room. She could not help but explain when she saw Eudora standing in a daze in front of the wardrobe.

"Mr. Granger had prepared all these for you. For the past five years, he would buy new collections every season while waiting for your return."

Eudora frowned and realized that a small hand was tugging her finger.

Eudora was taken back but she proceeded to coax Juju, "Mommy has a dinner party tonight. So, Juju, could you please stay at home and wait for Mommy to come back?"

Juju's emotions had become much more stable over the past few days and she would no longer cry in the middle of the night as well. She had also become less resistant to the idea of Eudora or Amos not being at home.

This was the reason Eudora asked Juju those questions.

Flowever, Juju still shook her head as she held onto Eudora's hand tightly.

Eudora sighed and explained, "Mommy would love to bring you there too but there are too many people at the dinner tonight."

She was particularly worried about Wendy's appearance.

Seeing this, Auntie Valerie helped to persuade Juju as well, "I will play Frisbee with you and Cola, how does that sound?"
