My Second Husband novel Chapter 420

Juju then removed herself from Amos' embrace.

"Daddy, I want to make some chicken wings. Mommy loves chicken wings the most, and she'll definitely feel much better after having them!"

Amos nodded and said, "Great idea!"

After that, Amos told Charlie to accompany her to the kitchen.

Amos stood there in a daze for a long time. It was difficult for him to calm his mind.

After a seemingly long time, he was snapped out of his trance by the sound of his cell phone ringing. Harley's voice came from the other end, saying, "Amos, our rescue operation went smoothly. Auntie Valerie's grandson has been rescued!"

Amos remained silent and indifferent as he listened to the sound of Auntie Valerie and Weldon crying over the phone.

Harley frowned, "Amos? What's wrong?"

Amos didn't answer the question. Instead, he said, "Pass the phone to Auntie Valerie."

Harley immediately passed the cell phone to Auntie Valerie. She immediately conveyed her gratitude the moment the phone reached her ear, "Mr. Granger, thank you very much. If it weren't for you, my grandson might have been killed. I will remember this kindness for the rest of my life. I will never forget it...". "You don't have to come to Clearwater Bay ever again!" Amos suddenly interrupted her.

Auntie Valerie opened her mouth in shock, "Mr. Granger..."

"Ask your son to resign from the company too! I don't want to see him there ever again."

Deep down, he knew that Auntie Valerie and her family had been used as pawns in this incident. However, if it had been before, Amos would not even care whether they had been victims of the situation. He would still nonetheless make them pay for what they had done.

However, he knew that Eudora would definitely be upset if he were to do that.

Therefore, in the end, he decided to give up this harsh approach and said that sentence instead.

Auntie Valerie was in tears on the other end, "Mr. Granger, I know that I've made an unforgivable mistake. But, the Madam has grown accustomed to my cooking. Please, at the very least, let me continue to take care of her..."

"Your service is no longer needed!" If Auntie Valerie hadn't brought up Eudora, he probably wouldn't have been that angry. However, the moment she mentioned Eudora, he became even more displeased.

Amos hung up the call and slammed the phone into one of the corners of the study.

He told himself that he needed to be composed and calm. Because at that moment, Eudora needed him. If he couldn't even calm himself, then what about her? Amos stood there alone for a long while gradually regaining his composure. He then picked up the phone, pushed the door open, and walked out.

Charlie and Juju were in the kitchen. There was no one in the living room. Wesley glanced in the direction of Eudora's room upstairs as soon his eyes met Amos'.

The bedroom door was still closed and had not yet been opened.

Amos took a deep breath and made his way upstairs. When he reached the door, he stood there for a while before pushing it open to enter.

Eudora was huddled up in the corner of the big bed, like a helpless child.

When she heard the sound of the door opening, her back stiffened, and she subconsciously turned around. She locked eyes with Amos at this moment.

Amos could see the deep sadness in her eyes. His heart missed a beat. Just as he was about to speak, those sad eyes curved again.

She squeezed out a smile, "I'm sorry, have I overslept today? It seems that I've disobeyed you again..."

Amos' heart ached as he shook his head hastily.

"No, you've been a good girl. The weather outside isn't very ideal today. It's best for us to stay here."

After he said that, it was obvious that Eudora seemed to be much relieved. She then smiled at him.
