My Second Husband novel Chapter 404

Amos stared at Harley's back and pursed his lips up bitterly. Behind him came Eudora's voice.

"Amos, open wide..."

Amos didn't know when Eudora had come over but she was trying to feed him some cake. Amos shook his head, "No thank you, I don't want it. You should have more!"

"No, you really should try it. It's really sweet!"

Amos complied eventually. He opened his mouth and took a bite, Eudora's anticipatory eyes never straying from him, "So? Is it sweet?"

Amos nodded, "It really is!"

"I told you!"

Right after she said that, she ran someplace else. Once she left, Amos finally forced himself to swallow the durian cake in his mouth and breathed a sigh of relief.

Everything would be fine as long as she was happy.

Eudora seemed to have a strong reaction during this pregnancy. She was fine a while ago, but after eating, she rushed into the bathroom and vomited everything out.

Amos stood outside and heard the sound of retching coming from the other side. He pushed open the door and went in hurriedly. Auntie Valerie, on the other hand, was relatively relaxed. "It's alright. Pregnant women generally vomit very frequently for the first few months. After that, they'll get much better!"

Half an hour later, Auntie Valerie's relaxed posture stiffened.

"She's been vomiting for a while. It's the first time I've seen..."

Amos's face darkened, "Call the doctor."

They had opted for an obstetrician this time. When the doctor arrived, Eudora had already been vomiting for almost an hour and a half and had to stay put in the toilet throughout. Whenever she drank any water, she would immediately retch it back out.

Meanwhile, Amos was standing right behind Eudora, his expression terrifyingly solemn.

The doctor hurriedly plugged her with an I.V. but she was still retching uncontrollably even though nothing was coming out of her body.

Amos was infuriated, "What's in that drip? Why is she still retching so badly?"

The doctor was nearly scared to death by the sheer anger in his voice.

"Mr. Granger, don't worry. She's been pregnant for quite some time now. It's perfectly normal for morning sickness to occur!"

"I know that it's normal, but can't you see that she's suffering? Make it stop!"

The doctor was nearly frightened to tears,"It differs from person to person... We can't do much more..." However, Amos didn't even seem to hear the doctor's explanation at all. He only knew that his wife had been bent over the toilet for a long while now and seeing her in such discomfort made his heart hurt.

He felt slightly remorseful. He should have been more resolute back then and insisted on terminating the pregnancy.

"Amos..." Eudora's weak voice could be heard.

Immediately, that brought Amos back to his senses. He rushed over to her and held her hand.

"What is it?"

It had only just been two hours but Amos felt as though Eudora seemed to have lost a lot of weight. Her previously rosy cheeks were now pale.

She tried hard to smile at him, "I'm fine! Stop fussing, you're being too fierce!"

"Okay, okay. I'll calm down," Amos said hurriedly.

However, there was still no smile on his face, and he looked extremely stern. Eudora reached out and pulled the corners of his lips into a smile, "Smile for me. If you do, maybe I'll stop vomiting..."

In the next second, a smile appeared on Amos' face.

The doctor next to him was stunned. She gazed at the seemingly fragile lady lying on the bed with some admiration.

This world was indeed mysterious. Perhaps, everything and everyone in this world would always have its own means to an end. Perhaps, the medicine had started to take effect, or maybe, just maybe, the smile on Amos' face had done it. But after a short while, Eudora really stopped vomiting.

She laid on the bed in a daze and soon fell asleep.
