My Second Husband novel Chapter 221

The woman on the phone was very curious but she did not insist when Eudora was adamant that she did not want the payment.

Juju had already woken up. However, she was not in a good state because of what had happened the night before.

She sat there in a daze and she did not even react when Eudora talked to her.

Eudora George was frightened. She was afraid that Juju had reverted to how she was previously. Eudora was anxious as she comforted Juju gently.

However, Juju was still indifferent and Eudora, who was getting more impatient and worried, spoke sternly.

"Don't you know that Mommy would feel sad when you act like this? He's not your Daddy, so you should not be sad because of him. Mommy is willing to let you pick another Daddy if you really want one. But, no matter what, you're the most important person to Mommy, so you must be alright, okay?"

Juju slowly raised her head to stare at Eudora. Her big round eyes were filled with sadness.

"I don't want anyone else to be my Daddy. Why doesn't Daddy want me anymore?"

Eudora felt a sharp pain in her heart and she held Juju in her arms hurriedly.

"Mommy wants you! Mommy loves you. I believe that there are a lot of people who like you too..."

At that moment, the doorbell rang.

Eudora went to answer the door. She saw a toy sunflower appearing immediately after opening the door.

"Little princess, do you like it?"

Christopher was surprised when he did not receive any response. "What's wrong with my little princess?"

Eudora smiled in embarrassment and said, "Come in! How are you and your family?"

"They're alright! What about you, why did you suddenly move back here? I would've thought that you were still at Clearwater Bay if I hadn't noticed the commotion when I came back here to get some things!"

Eudora was reluctant to continue on the topic and she quickly changed the subject.

"Did you come back for your things? Are you officially moving home?

Christopher said with a bitter smile, "Yes, my father's final wish was for me to accompany him."

Final wish?

Eudora was surprised and she asked, "Are you okay?"

"I'm fine, I'm just a little angry at myself. Back then, he did not care about me or my mother. Now, he's on his death bed but he is still trying to guilt-trip me! The worse part is that I couldn't bear to say no. Don't you think that I am such a loser? No wonder you have never liked me."

Eudora frowned and she said, "Don't say that. It's difficult for one to give up on their family. You're a nice guy. I think you're too nice and that's why you couldn't bear to reject him."

Christopher finally smiled and said, "You're the only one in the world who could make me so happy. Alright, let's not talk about it anymore. Where's my little princess? Why isn't she talking?"

He handed Juju the toy sunflower and said, "A princess should be as beautiful as the sun!"

Juju stared at it unhappily for a while and said, "Thank you, uncle."

"Good girl!"

After that, Juju played on her own and Christopher turned his attention to Eudora. "You and Amos..."

"I have nothing to do with him!" Eudora answered too quickly and there was a trace of panic in her voice.

Christopher chuckled.

Eudora was embarrassed. "I'm just telling the truth! I was staying with him previously because Juju had some complications and she relied on him. Now that everything's fine and back to normal, it was time for me to leave!"
