My Second Husband novel Chapter 220

Eudora made her way downstairs without hesitation with Juju in her arms.

Juju was so nervous that she kept struggling but to no avail. Finally, she reached out towards Amos and cried loudly.

Amos hurried to Juju when he heard her cries.

However, when he thought of his dark past, he stopped dead once again.

Perhaps, he could never escape from his past. In that case, perhaps it would be better to end things with Eudora.

Wendy was right. How could a person like him, who had been living in the dark, ever stand under the sun again? The rays of sunshine may be shining on him but darkness would always seep from his heart.

It would be unfair to Eudora and Juju. In that case, he should just let them go!

He made his mind up at that moment and he stood rooted to the ground.

Following that, Juju suddenly screamed, "Daddy!"

Amos' heart skipped a beat, and even Eudora was surprised. Juju was speaking again!

Juju was still sobbing in Eudora's arms. "Daddy, I want my Daddy!"

Instantly, Eudora's temper dissipated. She stopped and listened carefully to the footsteps behind her. In truth, she only said those remarks out of anger. She was livid when Amos acted like he was disgusted with them.

However, she also knew that Amos was in a bad mood lately. If he was willing to give her an explanation, then she might just forgive him.

After that, she turned back to look at Amos.

On the other hand, Amos almost rushed to Juju when she called him 'Daddy1.

Yet, when his gaze met Eudora's eyes, he suddenly stopped again.

Her eyes were clear and bright like how they used to be many years ago. Wendy was right. How could he possibly not recognize that pair of prominent eyes?

Perhaps, it was not because he couldn't tell. Perhaps it was because he had never dared to think about that possibility. Deep down, he hoped that Eudora was not that little girl.

However, the reality was that Eudora was indeed that little girl from the basement many years ago. And that fact made him feel even more disgusted by himself.

Wendy mentioned that she had seen his most embarrassing and disgusting side...

All of a sudden, a rusty sweet taste filled his throat. At that moment, Amos wanted to place his hand over his chest very badly. Yet, he was afraid that Eudora would find out, so he held back.

He was afraid that he would vomit blood in front of Eudora, so he gritted his teeth and said, I'm not your father!" These few words pierced Amos' and Eudora's hearts like a sharp sword.

However, only Eudora knew that Amos was Juju's biological father.

Nevertheless, his intentions were clear as day now, weren't they? He despised her!

Eudora finally understood. He used her to cut all ties with Wendy and now he was starting to despise er and Juju.

Fine.

He was giving her a wake-up call, telling her to quit dreaming!

Eudora ignored Juju's tears and ran downstairs with Juju in her arms.

After the two of them left, Amos finally ran to the nearest trash can in the room and spat out a mouthful of blood.

Amos tidied himself after the episode and slowly calmed down. He then noticed a scribbled paper on the side table. "I want Daddy, I want Daddy!"

His heart sank and pain infiltrated his entire body. He did not know where the pain was coming from but it was so agonizing that he could barely breathe.

After struggling for a moment, he finally went out to check on them, his heart filled with worry.

The pair waited for a long time on the side of the road but they could not seem to hail a taxi. Amos picked up his mobile phone and called the new chauffeur whom he had just hired. The chauffeur answered the call in a daze. He was confused when the caller told hr him to pick someone up in front of Amos' house.

He asked hurriedly, "Who are you?"

"It's Amos Granger!"

The chauffeur instantly snapped out of his daze and got up to put on some clothes. "President Granger, I'll be there right away. Don't worry."
