My Second Husband novel Chapter 28

When Eudora George woke up the next day, Amos Granger had left the house.

After lying on the bed for a while, Eudora got up from bed and went out to buy groceries.

As soon as she got outside, she saw Laura Westin standing by the door. Eudora was stunned for a moment and turned around to avoid her.

Unexpectedly, Laura chased after her.

"Eudora, I have something to tell you."

Her mother-in-law had never spoken so politely to her before. Eudora raised her eyebrows. "I think the George family had already told you my decision. I don't have anything else to say to you!"

Hearing this, Laura lowered her head.

She was just a woman from the countryside. She thought that her son was very powerful, but she didn't expect that Amos was much more powerful than her son.

When she thought of how her son had been tortured in prison, she didn't know what to do anymore.

"I know. I'm not here to look for trouble. I'm here to tell you that we will grant you the divorce. Just tell Amos to let my son go!"

"You will grant me the divorce?"

"Yes, I promise. As soon as Felix comes out, he will sign the divorce agreement immediately!" Laura still had some influence in the Meyer family. Since she had promised so, Felix would listen to her too.

But Eudora was still wary of them. Especially when she recalled what Felix Meyer had done to her. Once bitten, twice shy. She hesitated for a moment before saying, "Ask him to sign the divorce agreement first then I'll ask Amos to let him out."

"Eudora George!" Laura's face darkened, but for the sake of her son, she held back.

"I'm begging you. Felix have never suffered so much before. Would you take pity on an old person like me?"

Eudora frowned. She had been married to the Meyer family for three years. In the past, she had always been nice to her mother-in-law, never failing to serve her everything she needed. Laura, on the other hand, never treated her well.

Eudora never thought that just as they were about to get a divorce, Laura would come over and plead to her.

"The way things work in this world..."

"No way!"

Eudora was still hesitant. She had suffered so much all her life, she didn't want to be betrayed again. "Instead of begging me, why don't you waste your energy persuading Felix to sign the divorce agreement!"

Eudora turned around to leave.

Laura was so angry that she chased after Eudora and tried to hit her. Eudora raised her head and looked straight at Laura. "Take a look at where we are and consider whether that would be the right thing to do or not."

Laura clenched her teeth, "Isn't he just Amos Granger? What will happen if I hit you?"

"Why don't you give it a try? Let's see what happens after."

Laura hesitated. She remembered that Amos did not give mercy even to Eudora’s own biological father, what more her mother- in- law. Her hand stopped midair.

She lowered her hand and left, dejected.

Eudora sighed and turned around for the supermarket. Unexpectedly, she saw Amos standing in front of her.

He smirked at her, his eyes filled with mischief. "Did I hear you mention my name?"

Eudora was a little embarrassed. "I... I didn't mean to use your name to scare people away! I'm sorry."

Amos said casually, "It doesn't matter. You’ re obviously a cute little kitty, aren’t you? Feisty, but still cute."

Eudora was even more embarrassed and she quickly changed the subject. "Why are you back?"

"Well, if I wasn't back, I wouldn't have been able to see such a satisfying scene happening in front of me, would I?"

Eudora pursed her lips, "Oh my God."

"Anyway, someone's here to see you.." After saying this, he turned around and behind him was Kesha George.

Eudora frowned. "Why is she here?"
