My Second Husband novel Chapter 297

"It seems like your uncle intends to fight you until the end."

Eudora George sighed. With the Old Master around, Harry Granger claimed that he wanted everyone to get along and become a peaceful family. However, behind the Old Master's back, he had tricks up his sleeves.

Amos Granger was much calmer than she was, "He even tried to kill me. What won't he do? Whoever trusts him is a fool! Absolute fool!"

Eudora frowned. Truth was, she did not want to think poorly of anyone.

However, reality taught her a lesson.

"What should we do next?"

Amos smiled, "We'll let them do as they wish. Didn't they want a peaceful family? I'll show them a peaceful family then. I want to see what they are capable of."

Eudora burst into laughter, "You vicious old man."

Amos frowned. He didn't like the term 'old', "Am I old?"

Eudora said softly, "No..."

"I've not been teaching you well enough..."

Eudora immediately gave in, "My leg hurts."

"Still trying to act innocent?" In the evening, Clint Zuckerberg did as he had promised. He brought them some chicken soup.

When Amos opened the thermos, the smell of chicken soup immediately filled the room. Eudora cursed herself in her heart.

However, thankfully, Amos did not seem to notice her reaction. Instead, he poured out a bowl for her and handed the soup over to her, "Whatever you like, I will give it to you."

Eudora wanted to cry but no tears came to her eyes. No matter how much she liked eating or drinking something, she wouldn't want it day and night. How was she supposed to tell him that?

In fact, she only drank the soup that morning in hopes of patching the relationship between the father and son. If she had told him that she didn't feel like having the soup now, wouldn't that mean that she had deliberately made a fuss that morning?

Hence, she forced herself to drink the soup.

As though she was taking her medication, she swallowed the soup reluctantly.

"It's tasty."

Amos looked helplessly at the pretentious little woman, "Is it really tasty? I will ask Clint to get us more tomorrow then."

Eudora couldn't hold it in any longer, "No! It's disgusting! It tastes real bad."

"Who was the one who kept fussing this morning, asking for chicken soup?" Amos asked. "I did. But I've had too much. My belly is filled with chicken soup," She was embarrassed as she said it, "My pee also smells like chicken soup now."

Amos' face was full of pride, "Are you going to do it again next time? I don't want you to sacrifice yourself for the Old Master and me."

Eudora nodded, "I get it now. I won't do it again."

Amos knew that his mischievous woman was playing tricks on him again, but he couldn't bear to refuse her because she had begged him.

Therefore, he swapped her chicken soup with a bowl offish soup.

"Why don't you drink this then?"

Only then did Eudora realize what was going on, "Amos! You tricked me."

Amos laughed, "All is fair in war."

While they were having dinner, Auntie Valerie came in with Juju. As soon as Juju entered the ward, she sighed, "It smells so good in here."

"Oh yes, there's still some chicken soup left," Eudora quickly handed a bowl to Juju.

Juju was reluctant to go home after dinner. After all, she was still a kid. She wanted to be around her parents and she was reluctant to leave them.
