My Second Husband novel Chapter 390

Felicia's face contorted for a moment but a smile returned soon after.

"Forget it. It's all in the past now. Let's not mention it anymore. We've already prepared dinner. Come on over and help yourselves."

Gordon shook his head and said, "I'm not going to eat until Eudora comes back."

"I've told you many times already. Mom will leave her some food, alright? Why do you always wait for her?" Kesha asked angrily.

"No, no, that won't do. Eudora has been getting thinner recently."

Eudora remembered many instances in the past when her father would tell her that he had left dinner for her at home. Flowever, she never once laid eyes on such a meal every time she got back home.

Thinking of this, she directed a glare at Kesha.

It seemed that it was all Kesha's doing! Kesha avoided her penetrating glare stealthily, opting to look elsewhere so as to not draw more attention to herself.

Eudora was not in the mood to argue with her. Instead, she walked over to Gordon and persuaded him to eat, "Come on, let's eat! Eudora has filled herself already. You don't have to wait for her." "Really?" Gordon asked, looking at her suspiciously.

"It's true! The school provided students with mashed potatoes in the canteen today. It was delicious! She ate a lot of it."

"That's good. Mashed potatoes are one of her favorites!" Gordon said with a smile.

After helping Gordon into his seat at the table, they all settled down as well. A moment later, Eudora remembered that Amos was still waiting outside, so she said,

"Please go ahead without me. I'm heading back first. I'll come back to see you in two days. I'll take Dad to the hospital for a full-body check-up."

However, before she could even finish her words, Gordon had already grabbed her arm.

"Are you leaving already? But you haven't eaten anything yet!"

"Yes, I'm leaving for now. You must eat more, alright? Eudora will be happy to know that you did."

"I will! Wait, hold on..." Gordon said as he slowly got up.

Eudora didn't know what he was going to do, so she merely stood there and watched.

A moment later, she saw that Gordon had taken out a box and packed some of the dishes for her.

"Bring these back to eat. You look so skinny. You should eat more!"

Eudora looked at Gordon as though he were a child, her heart in turmoil, "Gordon, look at you. Why would Eudora want to eat this? She could afford better," Felicia said hurriedly.

At the mention of Eudora's name, Gordon suddenly perked up. He darted around and grabbed a fistful of mashed potatoes and put it in his pocket.

Eudora looked on in shock as Felicia hurriedly came up to him to get the mashed potatoes out of his pocket.

"What are you doing? Food is supposed to be eaten, not kept in pockets! You kept so much last time that it soiled the washer!"

Like a child, Gordon refused to let go of his fist of mashed potatoes no matter what Felicia did or said.

Eudora noticed that he was muttering to himself quietly but she couldn't hear what he was saying. When she got close enough, she finally managed to hear the mantra that he was repeatedly reciting to himself.

"Bring it to Eudora..."

Eudora's eyes prickled as tears started to well up in her eyes.

Gordon quickly let go of his grip on the mashed potatoes when he saw her crying. He said, "Girl, what's the matter? Why are you crying? Are you hungry? Here, I'll give you my share of mashed potatoes. You could eat some of it first, but you can't eat it all! Otherwise, Eudora won't have any left when she gets back!"

Eudora shook her head and said, "No, I don't want to eat it. You should leave that for her."

Gordon smiled and agreed, "Yes, I'll leave all of them to Eudora. Don't worry. Your father will definitely leave some for you as well. Don't be sad."

Eudora nodded.

Once she stepped out of the door, Eudora couldn't help but burst into tears.

Amos was met with a crying Eudora as soon as he looked up. He threw away the cigarette in his hand hurriedly and went up to her.

"What's the matter? Did they bully you? I'm going to..."

Eudora merely hugged him and squeezed herself against his broad chest. He made her feel secure and safe.
