Upon hearing this, Amos Granger frowned.
"I'm a little busy now."
Eudora George pursed her lips, "Amos, why don't you two get along?"
"Sorry, I'm a little tired," After that, he got up and left with Juju still in his arms.
Eudora was a little exhausted too. She thought that it would be easy to persuade Amos. However, it turned out otherwise.
Back then, Amos had tried to mend her relationship with Gordon George when there was a heart knot between them. However, when it came to his own relationship with his father, he became so resistant. She was confused.
After tidying up the lower floor, Eudora then made her way upstairs. By then, Juju was already asleep.
Amos was leaning against the couch in the study room, holding a picture in his hand in a daze. When Eudora walked over, she saw him through the crack of the door.
However, he quickly put it away.
Eudora pretended not to see anything. She paused and said, "Do you want to take a bath? I bought some bath oils when I was out today. Soaking in them would definitely make you relax."
Amos stood up and took her hand, "Let's do it together then!" Eudora shook her head hurriedly, "I still have some work to do. Please go ahead."
In fact, Amos was not in the mood at all. He was just trying to keep his emotions to himself.
After Amos left, Eudora returned to the study and found the photo in the drawer. It was a young woman who looked like Amos. She was holding a little boy in her arms. She could tell that the baby was Amos. Although he was still very young, his face looked like the same as what he looked like now.
Was this why Amos had refused to see the Old Master? Because of his mother?
There was another photo behind it. It was a photo of the Old Master and Amos. It was not from his childhood but from a few years ago.
Amos was sitting in a wheelchair and the Old Master stood behind him, but his eyes looked sad. However, this was only for the camera, because in real life, the Old Master and Amos were the kinds of people who did not like to express their feelings. The Old Master would never look at Amos like that.
Whatever the case was, the father- son duo obviously still cared for each other. However, neither of them wanted to break the ice.
Eudora looked at it for a while and placed the photo back in its original place.
Back in the room, Amos had just gotten out of the bathroom. As soon as Eudora entered the room, she felt a wet chest pressing against her back as he hugged her from behind. "Eudora, I don't want you to worry about me."
Eudora shook her head, "No, I'm not worried about you. I just hope that you'd listen to your heart. Deep down, I know you're very worried about the Old Master. Why don't you spend some time with him now that he is still alive?"
Amos frowned, "I thought that I could forgive him, but whenever I come close to forgiving him, I would suddenly think of my mother. I still remember the way she looked before she died. She was lying alone on a small bed in the slum, and she was almost skinny. Before she died, she held his photo, and missed the one that she treasured all her life. However, he never came to see her. Doctor Leon told me that my mother lied when she told him that she didn't love him. Nevertheless, he found me after Hank died. This shows that he only cares about the power of the Granger family..."
So that was what happened. Eudora reached out and placed a comforting hand on his back.
"It's all in the past. Many times, you would have to learn to forgive others and yourself. Otherwise, life would be very tiring. No matter what, Juju and I will forever be by your side."
The man lowered his head and kissed her lips, gradually dragging her into endless turbulence.
The next day, Eudora went to take care of the Old Master as promised.
