Both the father and son were very scheming. Therefore, Eudora could not help but wonder what Amos had promised his father when she saw that he was so relaxed.
Amos shook his head, "It's okay. He has agreed to not make things difficult for you anymore. You and Juju will stay here in peace from now on."
Eudora got even more worried, "What about you? What will you do?"
"I..." Amos paused and continued, "We may have to sleep in separate rooms but don't worry, I will sneak over whenever you need me."
Eudora was speechless.
Why was this guy still joking at times like this?
"Who needs that?"
"I need it, okay?"
Juju stared at Eudora before turning to Amos and asking in a sweet voice, "Mommy, Daddy, what do you need?"
Eudora was shocked.
She wanted nothing but to find a hole and bury herself inside. They were being a bad influence on their daughter.
"Nothing!" Eudora explained hurriedly while Amos smiled and said, "We are discussing whether Juju wants a brother or a sister!" "Juju likes brothers and sisters."
Eudora gritted her teeth, "Amos!"
"Okay,Mommy is angry now," Amos said hurriedly, "There are still some things that I need to deal with at the company. I'll come back later. You and Juju can play in the garden for the time being."
Eudora was still embarrassed after being teased by Amos. Thus, she simply nodded and watched him leave.
Meanwhile, Juju had been bored in the house for several days. Therefore, she was very happy that the weather was great and she was able to play outside. She was so excited that she ran around the garden.
The garden of the Granger family was specially managed by the gardeners and it blossomed all year round.
Eudora and Juju strolled along the path that was blooming with flowers and they arrived at a small house.
The door to the house was closed but they could smell sandalwood coming from it from afar.
Out of curiosity, Juju walked over.
Juju was about to push the door open when someone from the inside opened it. Bethany looked at them in surprise, "Why are you here?"
Eudora pulled Juju hurriedly back and apologized, "I'm sorry, we were just playing in the garden and we accidentally ended up here. I'm sorry to disturb you. We'll leave right away."
Bethany shook her head, "It's okay. I was just here to pray for Amos' elder brother!"
Amos's elder brother? Eudora knew that he died a few years ago, that was why Old Master Granger brought Amos back from abroad.
Bethany sighed, "In a blink of an eye, he had been gone for eight years and tomorrow will be his death anniversary. I don't know if he has been reincarnated to a better life."
Bethany would wear a kind smile every day, so Eudora was at a loss when she saw that she was upset.
Eudora could only comfort her casually, "He was a good man and he would most definitely live well."
Bethany nodded, "Yes, you're right."
