My Second Husband novel Chapter 385

Both Juju and Auntie Valerie were nowhere in sight when they got home. Amos dragged Eudora into their room straight away and began to unbutton her pants.

Eudora was bereft of speech, breathing heavily as she let him go on with his administrations.

She grabbed hold of his hands and teased, "You don't have to be in such a hurry, do you?"

Amos frowned, ignoring her. Eventually, he managed to strip off her pants.

Eudora's heart was thundering in her chest. She was really torn. She thought about what Wesley had said the other day and figured that both she and Amos deserved a chance to try things out.

Her heart raced faster, her cheeks flushing at the thought of what was about to happen.

She closed her eyes, hoping that it will calm herself down.

However, she realized that Amos had paused. Sensing no further movement from him, she blinked her eyes open and saw that he was staring worriedly at the wound on her leg.

Eudora was taken aback and she asked, "Are you going to stare at it all day long?"

"Well, what else am I supposed to do? You told me that you were fine, but it doesn't look fine at all! Your leg might even be fractured!" Amos fussed, furrowing his brows, feeling rather annoyed.

Eudora shook her head and reassured, "I'm fine..."

Amos pinched her legs in spite.

"Ouch! That hurts..." She yelped, getting caught off guard by it.

Everyone outside acted as though they did not hear any noises coming from the room and trying to make themselves seem invisible. They knew that President Granger hadn't seen Miss George for quite some time, but it sounded like he was being a bit too aggressive in there...

In the room, Eudora covered the wound on her leg as her eyes brimmed with tears.

"Why are you so mean? That hurts!"

"Oh, does it finally hurt now?! Why didn't you tell me that it hurts just now?"

However, he turned away and brought over a first aid kit despite his harsh tone.

Eudora held onto the hem of her shirt, feeling slightly berated, "I was trying to save Wesley's life, you know. He was in danger..."

"I was right next to Wesley. Did you think that I wouldn't be able to save him?"

Eudora felt helpless. She knew that she was unable to defend herself against Amos on this. All she could do now was to apologize, "Fine, I'll admit that I was wrong. Are you happy now?"

"Where do you think that you've done wrong?" Amos asked. Eudora looked at him, dumbfounded.

She had no idea what the answer to that question was.

"I... I shouldn't have stolen your spotlight and saved Wesley before you could. It should've been you, not me. He would've been happier if you were the one who did it, maybe," Eudora responded sarcastically.

Amos rubbed at his temples. He really couldn't handle this woman.

Eudora had become brighter and much more bubbly after losing her memory. However, there were times when she would act too recklessly, and she seemed rather thick in the head.

She didn't understand where his concern was coming from anymore.

In anger, Amos unwittingly gave her injured leg a tight slap and explained, "I wasn't trying to stop you from saving Wesley's life, okay? I was just worried about your safety! You need to learn to protect yourself before you try to help others!"

Eudora nodded.

When Amos was done applying the ointment on her wound, he still felt a little anxious and began to speak,

"I still think that you should pay a visit to the doctor and get an X-ray scan to check whether if you've got any fractures."

"That's so unnecessary! Look, I'm well aware of my own injuries. I'm really fine! If you don't trust me, I'll show you..."

She started to get up so she could hop around to prove herself. However, before her feet could even touch the ground, Amos held her back.

"I've just bandaged it, stop moving!"

Eudora had no choice but to sit back down. After a while, she turned her head carefully towards him and merely stared at him.

"Urn... I..."

"No!" Amos refused without hesitation. He wasn't going to let this woman walk about with a wound like that!

Eudora was lost for words.

"What? Couldn't I even ask for a glass of water now?"
